Key points covered are
-
We are already in global currency wars
-
End of the dollar as the benchmark global reserve currency coming
-
Higher inflationary – “all the currencies will fall against hard assets”
-
Massive financial crisis coming – complexity theory, behavioral economics shows this
-
“Allowing system to get larger and larger and we do not understand risk”
-
“In 1998, Wall Street bailed out a hedge fund; in 2008, the central banks bailed out Wall Street; in the next financial crisis which could be tomorrow or could be in 2018, who is going to bail out the central banks?”
-
Best description of financial panic – “everybody wants their money back at same time …”
-
“Money in the bank is not money – it is an unsecured liability of an occasional insolvent financial institution..”
-
In a panic, everyone seeks to get their money “which is gold, silver or cash…”

-
Stocks, bonds, pension funds “will be wiped out…”
-
Don’t trust financial institutions as they do not understand risks in system themselves …
-
“Blind leading the blind …”
