Gordon Phillips Author of The Risky Reader - Escaping the Fiat Prison and Leaning in to True Liberty S2-EP22

Havok and LX sit down with Gordon Phillips, former professional R&B bandleader, MIDI pioneer, currency trader, financial risk consultant, and author of The Risky Reader for a masterclass in libertarian finance and personal sovereignty. Gordon shares how he traded his bass for a Bloomberg terminal, exposed the Federal Reserve’s sleight of hand, and uncovered the 16th Amendment income tax psyop. With sharp wit and zero sugarcoating, he breaks down why most traders lose everything to emotion, why your 401(k) is quietly evaporating, and how to exit the fiat matrix using hard assets, rare coins, and real resilience. From constitutional taxation myths to the coming “perfect storm,” intentional communities, homeschooling, family preparedness, and the timeless wisdom of Lysander Spooner, this episode arms you with the tools to protect your wealth, reclaim your liberty, and thrive outside the system. If you’re done with financial tyranny and ready for true freedom, hit that play button.
