The Mark Moss Show Oct 21, 2022

When is it gonna happen? I say, it is happening. It's happening right now. It's the process. It's a non event, and I'd like to look at these signposts so we can see this change actually happening. We can see as we're getting closer and closer and closer to this and when that inevitable shift is really gonna come. It's like that gradually then suddenly, right, And that's exactly what we're seeing.

And so we look at it through the lens of those three things I've talked about, the three revolutionary cycles that are converging politics, finance, and technology. So we're looking at through those lens. And I had something big today that I want to talk about, so I thought we'd go live, we make some questions, we hear from you.

And what I've been seeing happening over the last couple of weeks, what I've been having private conversations about, what I'm focusing on I've talked a little bit about with you guys here as well, is that the world is a rapidly changing which, of course you know. But part of what's changing the world and it's it's a combination of all three. Um, it's a combination of the politics and the finance and technology. But because really, if we start at the top, the finances created so much distortions

in the market. The Fiat money system has distorted every single signal. It's perverted everything that we do, and it's really driven us to a point that we are right now today with crazy high debt levels, crazy high inflation levels. Um. The federals are of the central banks are basically left with no options. Uh, they don't know what to do. Their backs are against the wall. And while that's happening,

and then it's driving the politics. So of course the political leaders are looking out for their own belts best interests. They are using the monetary system to get richer and richer. Um. And at the same time as all this happening is then we have technology, which has always been the biggest driver of change throughout history. And so two things happened. One the Internet has allowed us to get information quick fast.

We're allowed to share information that we want to share, as opposed to state driven media that they tell us. And so it's a companation of those three things. But ultimately what's happened is as we're at the late stage of the cycle where we're at peak centralization. So think World Economic Forum, think I m F, think you in think peak centralization, NATO. Right as we're peak centralization run by the bankers, peak central banking, the world is pushing back.

We're rejecting that. And that's what I want to talk about today, UM, the way this has changed, and what we should be looking for. Why we should uh you know, be afraid of what's happening, We should work hard to make sure it doesn't happen. But why there's massive hope. We're gonna talk about all those things, and I want to take some uh live questions answers from the audience. Day. It's gonna be it's gonna be super fun the first

time we've done this. But what's happening is everything has shifted so far and so fast to the left that now, um, everything is possible. And uh, there's no such thing as uh, you know, men or women anymore. There's uh, you know, there's no such thing as parents or families anymore. There's no such thing as truth. And it's created this massive vacuum in this day and age where um society, where mainstream wants to tell boys that being a man is bad, toxic,

masculiney is a bad problem. They say, Um, they say that it's not your fault. You're a victim. It's not your fault, you're a victim. And in that day and age, when boys are being fed lies, when they're being held down, not just boys but girls, every buddy is being forced to live alive, people don't want to live that. And it sucked, um, all of this truth out of the ecosystem like a big vacuum. And in this vacuum, we're seeing the rise of new people because the people are

thirsting for the truth. And so big news this week, UM, this week was Tulsie Gabbard, who is a you know politician from Hawaii. She's a Democrat. Um. She ran for president on the Democratic Party. She put out a big video this week said that she is leaving the Democratic Party. But it's really the part about why that really caught my eye. And I'm sure by now the thing's gone viral. I'm sure you've probably seen it. But I want to just pick up on one piece of this specifically, and

she said that, Um, she's leaving the Democratic Party. She's denouncing the Democratic Party. Uh, denouncing the left for promoting policies that radicalize every issue and stoke anti white race is um. That's what she said. That's her words. She said that. She says she's gonna bandon the Democratic Party,

accusing the left of only protecting the powerful elite. She says, I can quote, I can no longer remain in today's Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers, driven by wokeness and who divide us by radicalizing every issue and stoke anti white racism, actively working to undermine our God given freedoms. That's her quote. And it's not just her that's saying this, And this

is what I want to talk about today. This shift, the pendulum is sween really really hard, really really fast, right before our very eyes. But um, really so really looking at this. But it's what she's saying, But it's not what she's saying it. It is what she's saying, but it's who else is saying the same thing, and more importantly, what's happening about that? But I really like this part um, But it's driven by a complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers, even by wokeness. So

the elitist cabal, So what am I talking about? Centralization? Peak centralization? Right? The pendulum is swung way too far, and the central planners, peak centralization is there, the weft, the you in the I, n F, NATO. That's what she's talking about. A cabal, an elitist cabal, central or central central, centralized planning, globalism, that's what she's talking about. But it's wokeness, And what is the wokeness? The wokeness

is destroying the truth, sucking the truth out Again. When I asked simple questions like what is a woman say, I can't define that anymore. We've lost what truth is. We don't even know what a woman is um. I've recently picked up a ranch in Texas and I'm raising animals there. I got goats and I got cows, and one thing, I was just looking at the goats and we have one billy goat and all the rest of our girls, female goats and billy go to the boy go and they know which ones are the boys and

which ones are the girls. They know they end up. The animals know, but apparently we as humans, we don't know anymore. Because of weakness, We've destroyed the truth and then stoking every issue, trying to divide us right, trying to say that we align on identities, that if you're black, or you're wide, or your male or female, or gay or straight, you have to divide into your in your ship separate groups, which is not true. We don't divide like that. We divide based off of values and interests.

So if you go to a bit WIN conference, for example, everybody there's for freedom, and you're gonna have black people and white people and men and women, you're gonna have gay people and straight people, and everybody's there aligning on a value of freedom, not on their race or sex or gender preference. None of that all right, but she is saying that she's calling it out exactly like it is, and she's not alone. She's not alone. What we're seeing is the rise of people like this, and this is

what's really catching my eye. And it's really the biggest signpost that the centralization, the pendulum has peaked out on peak centralization and swinging back. I want to talk about some of these signposts, some of these other people that are catching mind. Some of them you've seen, you just haven't put two and two together. So I want to talk about this, um. I want to talk about some of the things that are happening right now, this attack

on IT, things that are happening on you, censorship. I want to talk about some big, big, big things that happened this week, and I want to leave you with some hope of things that we can actually do about it. We're gonna go into some question and answer on it. So I'm gonna take a break for a second. I'm gonna be right back. You're listening to the Mark Wash Show talking about the decentralized Revolution, how the world is

swinging from centralization to decentralization. We look at through the lens of politics, finance, and technology back in a minute with more. So don't go away. I want to be right back. We're still alive. We're gonna keep going guys. Um So, let me's just jump right into it. You're still listening to the Markma Show. We're talking about the decentralized revolution, the way the world is swinging from centralization

to decentralization. We're talking about how Tulsi Gabbar decided to leave the Democratic Party because not because it's Democrats, because she said it's been taken over by an elitist cabal of war mongers. So one of the cabals, obviously is his NATO. The war mongers, the neo cons as we would call them, just wanting to go to nuclear war

so bad, just so bad. So many times apparently Russia and Ukraine have tried to come together to talk about peace, and the US warmongers, the cabal of war mongers, as to Gaber calls it, the neo cons, just want to go to war so bad. I remember a time when um President Trump was coming into office, and over and over and over and over we were told that how could we let this guy have control of the nuclear weapons?

And this guy is gonna take us to nuclear war, and the whole world is gonna blow up if Trump is there with the nuclear weapons. He was nominated for a peace Prize. We had piece in the Middle East. Now with Biden there, now we're facing war. And I don't want to make this about left or right. I don't like labels. I can't assign myself to either political party. For the political party that wants freedom, that pushes personal agency back, that gives me responsibility for my own life.

I want more freedom for me. I want small government. That's what I want, And I don't know which political party that is anymore. So maybe just like Tulsea Gabbart, I don't know where um where I fit in either now. Like I said, she is absolutely not alone on this. Like I said, it's created this vacuum that people are rising up and and and fit into. So we have

Jordan Peterson. Think about Jordan Peterson. He just rose out of nowhere to international fame because he said a message of like, let's take responsibility, stand up, pull yourself by your bootstraps, deal the hand that you're dealt um. You're not a victim, right, Wipe your face off. That's what he says. And look how fast he blew up. We saw the same thing with Andrew Tate, came out of nowhere and just took the world by storm. Of course, then he was deleted off all the social media platforms.

Why because he said the same thing. Take responsibility, he said, be a man, Um, learn to take care of yourself and your family. Right, Um, you're not a victim. The same thing. Look at Joe Rogan speaking the truth and single handedly might have taken down CNN station that all they do is spew lies. And Joe Rogan is a very neutral figure, more neutral than I might like. I might like to see him a little bit more on one side of the aisle, but he seems to be

very neutral. And look at two unmillion views a month, it says at all because he speaks the truth. Look at Russell Brand, the rise of Russell Brand, Russell Brand, I mean whatever. He's a comedian, he was on a he was on a reality show. That's cool. But he's gained almost six million followers on YouTube because he speaks the truth. Of course, now they don't like that. They don't want people to speak the truth. As a matter of fact. In Murray Rothbard's book, anatomy of the state.

He says that independent intellectuals. Independent intellectuals are the biggest threat to the state. That means you being independent of the state, being able to take care of yourself, and intellectual, being smart, being able to think on your own. So if you can take care of yourself, you're independent, and you're independent intellectual, you can also think for yourself. You're an enemy of the state. The state wants you to

don't do your own research, just believe the experts. The state wants you to be dependent on them and not to think for yourself, right, which is why they're pushing U b I and welfare. That's why the FED says, they're trying to crush the man. They want to make you poor, they want to break down the family unit, they want to break down all forms of dependence. Um they support. So if they if we lose all forms of support, then we have no choice put to bend

to beend on the state. Russell Brand. They don't like people like Russell Brand talking about this waking people up and so YouTube censored. Russell Brand says, well, forget that, I'm moving on to um rumble. He's gonna who's gonna move on. We saw, Um, the same thing happened with Alex Jones. Alex Jones is being made an example of. He said mean things. He said that maybe Sandy Hook could have been a hoax. I probably shouldn't even say this. Um, I'm not making the case. This is what he said.

And he since gone on to apologize for that. Um, he's talked about it twenty four minutes out of all these years. And now we saw this week he was ordered to pay one billion dollars to the families. Now, look, should you have said those things? Probably not? Does it mean certainly, um, should you pay a billion dollars? What to try and do is make sure they want to make the penalty so high that nobody else ever, d ever dare come out and say the truth or fear

of being hit with a billion dollars. Fine, But Tolti Gaber doesn't care. She's come out and she said, a cabal of the elite, she said, and leaders caball of warmongers driven by wokeness, trying to divide us on every single issue. Um. We saw in Italy Maloney's the new PM was elected in Italy basically saying the same thing. She rose out of fame because she speaks to the average person, the middle class person. She said that they don't want me to be a woman, a mother, or

Christian Italian. No, no, no, no, she said, I have to be parent X or citizen X. I have to be a birthing person. She said. They want to take away our identity so they could turn us into the perfect consumer. Who's day the financial speculators, you know, claud Schwab, head of the world, I coming for I'm talking about this public private partnership, the public private partnership, so the

government and the corporations together. I thought that was fascism, but apparently fascism anybody who doesn't want their policies, So she's a fascist. So they, she said, the financial speculators, the businesses that aligned themselves with the governments, want you to be the perfect consumer. Not an individual, not a mother, not a Christian, not a woman, not a not a non Italian, she said, but parent one, parent two. But look what the people are doing. The people are rising up.

Look what they're doing with Jordan Peterson with Andrew Tate, with Joe Rogan with Russell Brand with Maloney look at TILTI Gabbard, anybody who will rise up and speak the truth. You're getting a massive amount of tention because people are dying for the truth right now. Now we can see that again. They don't like this. As I said right that the biggest threat to the state is independent and intellectual thinkers. We've seen this week. Um, Kanye West, he

decided to speak his mind. There's a lot of this and that about what he did say what he didn't. I don't really know all the details. It doesn't really matter to me because I believe in freedom of speech. And even if I don't like what you say, and there's plenty of things that people say that I don't like, I'm always gonna defend your right to say it because I believe in intellectual honesty, intellectual discussion. Um. And Kanye West had his bank accounts shut down. So you say

something people don't like. The cabal, the elitist cabal that that Tulsi gathers talking about. And JP Morgan shut his bank accounts down. Now I saw it was because he wore a White Lives Matter shirt to Paris Fashion Week. He went on Tucker Carlson and said he is pro life. He said that more Black babies are being murdered by abortion every yeer than are being born. I haven't fact checked that statement, and he said I am pro life. Um. Apparently he said some things mean things about Jews as well,

so I'm not sure what they were. But either way, you say some mean things that the establishment doesn't like, they close your bank account down. We saw PayPal came out and said that if you say things they don't like, they can pull twenty hundred dollars out of your bank account if they consider to be misinformation. Now they've since walk that back and said, oh, we we didn't mean to say that. That's not really what we meant, but that's not true. As a matter of fact, they've been

planning this for a long time, a long time. So I want to talk about that. We'll dig into that a little bit, and then I want to talk about maybe the biggest enemy to us right now today that's actively working against us, what's being done to push back, and what you and I can do about it, And then we're gonna go into a question and answer. We're doing this one live. You're listening to the Mark Ma Show Live talking about the decentralized Revolution, how the world

is changing from centralization to decentralization. I'm gonna take a break for a second. I'll be right back. Don't go away, all right, Welcome back. You are listening to the Mark Moa show talking about the decentralized revolution, the way the world is swinging from centralization to decentralization, central planning, central banking, it's all failing and we can see it happening. It's a it's a process, not an event, but it's happening

faster and faster now. Right before I took a break for a second, I was talking about how PayPal um this week said they're gonna pulls out of anyone's accounts if they spread misinformation. And now the problem with misinformation, who's to decide what's misinformation? Stuff gets labeled misinformation all day and I know for a fact it is not dis misinformation, but they want to say it is, and so they can just pull money out of your account

now um. Very quickly news went round the world and everybody started closing their paipal accounts as they should stop giving your money two businesses that use it against you, and so they were shutting their PayPal accounts very quickly, PayPal had to come back out and say, wait, wait, wait, wait wait, Um, the AUP notice recently went out in error that included incorrect information. PayPal is not finding people for misinformation, and this language was never intended to be

inserted in our policy end quote. It was inserted by error. How did it get there by error? Somebody wrote it, somebody typed it out. It was put in there. Now maybe they decided, hey, let's not put that out right now. So maybe it was actually inserted by error, but it was not written in error, not written by error at all. It wasn't like somebody was making an update and actually

put that in there. David Marcus, who was one of the original PayPal founders as well as Elon Musk, came out big time talking about this, saying, whoa, whoa, we can't have this. Uh. In a tweet President David Marcus, PayPal president. Former PayPal president David Marcus said, um spoke out against the policy, and he said, um oh and uh yeah. And Elon Musk he said, it's hard for me to openly criticize the company I used to love

and gave so much to. Marcus said, but but PayPal's new AUP goes against everything I believe in a private company augus to decide to take your money if you say something they disagree with, that's insanity. Musk you know, must said agreed. Now, I wanted to say one thing real quick about the this is that, Um, this is not an accident. As I said, right, they someone typed it out, someone put in there. Maybe they didn't mean to post it, but they put it in there. But look,

this actually goes much much further back than this. So over a year ago, as a matter of fact, this is July, PayPal partnered with a d L to quote fight extremism and hate by researching and disrupting payments. Now what's a d L. A d L is the Anti Defamation League. A d L Anti Defamation League sounds pretty good, right, So they announced a partnership um and in a partnership initiative with PayPal to combat perceived extremism and bigotry in

the financial industry. So, led by a d L Mental Defamation Leagues et Center for Extremism, they're going to focus on researching UM networks that promote extremists and hate movements. The part a ship will then share its research with policymakers and law enforcement officials as well as civil rights organizers.

But basically what they're doing is PayPal partnered up with a d L and a d would give a list of every business that they think should not be able to have an account with PayPal, and then PayPal would decide to take it upon themselves to enforce, Um, who and who shouldn't get accounts? Now you know these are these are these are difficult issues. UM. I believe in private strong private property right. So if I create a business, I should have the right to refuse service. Right. We

used to see those signs of business all the time. So, UM, if I don't want to business with you, I shouldn't have to. And so if PayPal wants to shut my accounts, I guess, so be it. The problem is when they start restricting access to public utilities, because the financial system is a public utility, and that's where it starts getting um, dicey. But if they should have the right to refuse service to us, then we should exercise our right to do

business with people that support our best interests. What's exactly what happened once people started closing the PayPal accounts and they were forced to very quickly reverse course. Now UM probably the biggest company in the world as a matter of fact, not probably the the largest UM company in the world by assets under management. I'm talking about black Rock, arguably one of the most evil companies in the world. UM takes UH, They basically take ownership and all these

publicly traded companies. They take board seats in these publicly traded companies, and then they influence UH their own policies, their own objectives into these companies, mainly thinking about e s g. Environmental social governance. They took over board seats of x ON and made them get out of oil. The problem is that not only they are pushing these extremist viewpoints, but they're not working in the company's best interests. So, for example, UM x ON, an oil company now has

to stop investing into oil. But it's an oil company now. Under something known as fidiciary duty, they're supposed to be doing their best to make to maximize investment returns. So if I give them my assets to manage for me through a four one K pension, etcetera, they have a fidciary duty to me to do the best they can to maximize those investment returns. Now, if if part of that is to put money into x on and then they shut x on down, that's certainly not working to

my best interests. Furthermore, the majority of Americans still do not agree with the radical ideologies that black Rock is pushing. So I'm giving you my money to manage for me. You're using that money as leverage to force these companies into doing things that work against my best interests. My interests now like what Mark like? What well? Like one trying to shut down all the energy So now you're you know, thankfully your gasoline is way higher. You can

thank black Rock for that. Your natural gas it was up up, you can thank black Rock for that. Oh what about single family homes. You've probably heard about them buying up all the single family homes across America paying thirty five percent over asking price because they get all that free money from the government. You don't get it, and they buy you out of home. So now your price of your homes have gone up, the price of

your rents have gone up thanks to black Rock. Now, um again, stop giving your money to companies that are working against you. And that's exactly what the state of Louisana. Louisiana did I talked about this last week. I was applauding them Louisia and announced that they're pulling almost one billion dollars from black Rock because of their E s G push. I say almost a billion, it was eight

hundred million UM. Louisiana State Treasurer told black Rock UM on Wednesday that the state will be divesting well in all its treasury funds from the giant investment firm because of its efforts to move away from funding fossil fuel extraction. UM. He said that UM, quote, you blatant, Your blatantly anti fossil fuel policies would destroy Louisiana's economy. This divestment is necessary to protect Louisiana from actions and policies that would

actively seek to hamstring our sector. In my opinion, your support of vs G investing is inconsistent with the best economic interest and values of Louisiana. Now, imagine if everybody do the same. Imagine if other states, if other big funds would pull their money from black Rock. Do you think black Rock might stop and think about maybe switching. I think they would. Now that's exactly what happened. I was I was talking about last week, and that's exactly

what's happening. So here we see this week, South Carolina now announced that they are going to divest or pull their money away from Black Rock over quote leftist world view. They said they're going to divest all of their black holdings by the end of the year UM and this is more backlash over these insane policies that Black Rock is pushing through UM. The state Treasurer, Curtis Loftists confirmed that there will be doing this UM bye by the

by the year end. He says, quote, I will not allow our financial partners to undermine my fidciary responsibility to maximize investment returns while accepting a prudent level of risk for the benefit of our citizens. Is imperative that we stand up to Black Rock and resist the pressure to simply fall in line with their leftist worldview end quote. Imagine if everybody did the same. The tide is changing,

the pendulums swinging. We can see it all over. I want to take some questions live from the audience and we're gonna discuss these things and see what you're seeing. You're listening to the Markmas Show. We're talking about the decentralized revolution, the way there was the pendulum of swinging back from centralization, central planning and central banking and moving back into a more free, open, decentralized world, world that I think is gonna be better on the other side

of that. We'll be back in a second. Don't go away, I'm gonna be right back, all right, Welcome back. You are listening to the Mark Mo Show. We're talking about each and every week the decentralized revolution, the way the pendulum is swinging from centralization to decentralization. I've been going through a bunch of examples of how we can see this happening super fast. Right now today, I want to take some live questions from the from the listeners right now.

I've never done this before. We're gonna try this for the first time. Let's see how it goes. If you'd like to come on UM and talk to me live, let me know. UM. Dan is screening, people will be bringing people on. Let me know when we have somebody, Dan and UM. Until then, we're gonna keep keep talking about this. But UM, I think the thing that we have to take away from this is we have to understand that the biggest way we can affect change is with our money. So sure, we can vote, and we should,

we should vote. I think most us understand that our votes probably don't mean a whole lot today. Um, we can trying to educate our kids, as we should. We try to educate ourselves. We should talk to our friends, our families should try to educate them as we should do that. But ultimately, the biggest leverage is always going to come with our money. Voting with our money. I mean, just look at what's happening with black Rock right here. Enough people pull money from black Rock, they will be

forced to change their position. And that's exactly how we want to do that. Are we getting anybody, Dan, We got a bunch of shy people, and nobody wants to take a chance to come on and talk to me live. Go ahead and drop a message. We'll bring you on and uh, see what you have to say for the world will discuss that. I've discussed a lot of information. I know you've gotta have a lot of questions for me the first time we've opened it up. So let's ahead and jump in see what you got. But until then,

let's let's talk about Let's talk about this. So I've been working on a on a plan, a plan that I have to really affect some massive change. And as a plan that I have is to a three part plan, and I'm calling it a top down, to bottom up and an inside out. Now, I didn't necessarily invent this.

It's exactly what the Marxist did when they took over the United States when communism went under the ground, and and really in the sixties when they came over, but really into the seventies and eighties, and they had a three part approach. It was a top down, to bottom up and an inside out. And I want to take that same three part plan and I want to turn it back against them. And so what are those three pieces? So the top, the top down, that's that's part number one.

Now the top down is exactly what I said before. Its voting, right, So we should be voting. Um, I know, you know, after what happened in the last election, a lot of people maybe think that their vote doesn't count, maybe it desert it doesn't. But it's what we can do now, right. I like to say that as long as I'm breathing, I'll be swinging. So I don't know how much of my vote counts when I'm gonna but I'm gonna put it on anyway. Now, I do believe that the more local the vote is to you, the

more important it is. Having a good sheriff is extremely important. Having a good you know, um, mayor in your town is extremely important. Having a governor is extremely important. So the closer the politics are to the more important they are. So you can definitely have some advantage or or or some movement there. Um. Now that's the top down, all right, do everything that we can there. It's my area of least leverage. We will do that. On the bottom level

is the education. Now, this is what I'm doing, putting out so much content to all the time. Um, you know, I'm on my YouTube channel, Mark Moss. If you're not watching that, obviously this one is well markets ups YouTube channel, the radio show each and every week, the podcast, all the shows I go on, etcetera. And we're trying to wake people up. Um. I I have been running off of a quote that gives me energy, which is Samuel Adams said that it doesn't take a majority to prevail,

but rather a small irate minority. Keen on setting brush fires in the minds of mint. So we want to wake people up expo, loose them to what's going on. This is what Tulci Gabbard is doing, is what Joe Rogan's doing, this with Russell Brands doing, et cetera. We want to continue to educate people so they can understand that it's actually the Federal Reserve that's creating these problems. The Federal Reserve isn't trying, isn't isn't keeping prices stay.

But the Federal Reserve isn't there to prevent booms of bus. No, no, no, the Photo Reserve creates the booms and bus. They have a policy of creating two percent inflation, so they only want to steal a little bit from you. In other words, And then all right, yeah, we got somebody that wants to come on and take a question. What do we got? Let's let's bring them on. Hey, Eric, hey, work. I was just working out so and I heard your love so I hopped down. Um, I love all your all

your stuff. I just bought you the blueprint thing today. Awesome. So one question I had. I'm pretty heavy invested right now and physical gold and silver and bitcoin. Yeah, um, to kind of follow your thing. I was wondering if I should sell some of it, uh, to have that cash flow to kind of pick the stocks and buy it as the updates come. Okay, So so that's that's a big question and it's uh, it's very difficult to understand. I'm sorry to to really kind of give you guidance once.

Let me let me walk you through some mental models the ways to think about that. So, UM, I'd like to think about my investments sort of like a soccer team or a basketball team, where my offense and defense is on the field at the same time. Now I don't know exactly what's going to happen, which is why I want to do that. So I want to divide my assets up. That's asset allocation. So UM, I think about it in four buckets or pillars as as you know.

So four pillars. So one is I'm I'm investing for growth. I'm trying to get my money to grow into more money. Um, I'm investing for cash flow. So I want to have cash flow. I want to have chaos hedge insurance so if the whole world crashes, and that's kind of this gold piece that you're talking about. So what I want to do is I want to think through my portfolio, and I'd say, okay, a percentage of my investable net um net worth, so not including my home, not including

my business, those aren't investable assets, but everything else. If I added all up, I have a hundred dollars or a thousand dollars or a hundred million dollars, whatever it is, I have that total amount, and then I divide it into percentages. And so you could just all the way around. But I probably don't advise that. The fourth The fourth pillar is cash. Cash should be held. So I think today in today's day and age, uh, there's a lot of danger in certainty around having a bigger cash position

is probably a pretty good idea. UM. I think somewhere between thirty eight percent should be in that cash position. UM somewhere in the thirty range. I say thirty to forty because I'm actively adding to my cash position right now, so it's continuing to grow, and as a percentage of my total portfolio. UM, the growth portion of my portfolio

has gotten much smaller lately because of the risk. Now you were asking about gold specifically, so UM, gold, it looks like gold is doing pretty good, right now right, it looks like we've kind of bottom. There's a massive catalyst that could push gold higher. And so where do you want that to be. Let's say that's fifteen or so you need to decide what percent did you think that should be and then to answer your questions specifically

do you have that level or not? And if so, then continue adding to it until you do and if you if you're already over that allocation level, then then don't add anymore. Yeah. Yeah, So when this first going, like I just found you recently, so you've really like comed my fears and everything, which I appreciate, my thank you, your true patriot. Um. But yeah, I was kind of worried, like I don't know what They're gonna take my money

out of the bank and all that. You don't see any risk with any of that, Yes, So as far as keeping money in the bank, I don't see any imminent risk or danger in the United States of having money in the bank. I keep money in the bank. Now that being said, again, we diversify a risk. So I don't want to have one of all my assets in the bank. Um, I don't want them to take my money in the bank. I would certainly hate it

if they did that. But even if I lost all my money in the bank, I still have lots of other assets, and so that's the whole point of diversifying that risk. Now, in the United States, we have FDIC insurance up to two D fifty thou So if I had five hundred thousand, let's say, maybe I would divide it into two accounts, so I know that the accounts um insured. I don't see any imminent threat right now with that um that I'm worried about. Okay, Well, I'm

looking forward. Like I said, I just got it today, so I'm really looking forward to diving into it. And I appreciate everything you do. Great. Thanks Eric, appreciate you coming on.
