If you are in pursuit of money or work for money or love or hate the stuff, this short discourse gives an incredible amount of understanding in a short period of time. You need to listen to this to see how idiotically we are subject to a system that is destroying us.
If you are American and your wealth is in american dollars, you need to start taking serious action now about your future well-being. Everyone else should start thinking about what to do if the dollar is worth nothing when they wake up tomorrow morning.
I have to say I am a little freaked out about this and would certainly like to hear what others are thinking and planning about their lives facing the certainty of imminent collapse of global money and currency systems.
Not that I don't think that this would be a positive event for all humanity, but the man made event is boggling to my mind. What will happen? Apparently nobody knows!
My advice is to look at survival guidelines and go as far as you dare.
1- stock up on non--perishable food items and water. Dried beans and grains will last for years.
2- energy sources: batteries, solar panels and systems,bigger wood pile,
3- set up community co-ops for living support- grow gardens, transport, etc
4- set up a community money system. Remember, the big one we are living under is really just an illusion!!!!!
Hey, this already is starting to look better to me, I'm getting ready for a better world tomorrow. So how about you?

I put my IRA into the same bank as my mortgage, which is a local bank, so hopefully our fortunes will rise and fall together. But what about the guy who's deeply in debt to a mortgage company on the other side of the country?
