For those that have asked me to provide a sample of the daily gold/silver and occasional BTC analysis I provide on my patreon platform M-Th of every week in order to assess the value of my daily analysis, I’m provided a sneak peek of the analysis I provided to all my patreons many hours before market open in the US last Friday.At the 1m 57s mark, I stated that gold would likely move into the $2,300 to $2330 range to start this week, and since my posting of the above podcast on my patreon platform, gold plummeted as I predicted into this price range. At the 5m 10s mark, I stated my prediction that silver prices would plummet this week into the $29.25 to $29.70 from the pre-market high price of $30.85 established on 21 June 2024, and indeed silver has since plummeted nearly 5% to a low thus far of $29.35 a few hours ago.I update my price predictions, as stated before, on my patreon platform, every day from M to Th, so my above price predictions for gold/silver will be readjusted as this week proceeds. Thus, for anyone that wants to know if the micro day-to-day price analysis I provide on my patreon platform has value, listen to the above podcast that I release 4x/week on patreon and this should provide your answer to this question.In addition, anyone serious about receiving accurate gold/silver price predictions should undoubtedly follow someone based in Asia. I’m sure my patreons will tell you that the daily predictions I provide 4X/week have climbed a notch higher since my return to Asia. This is the case for a number of reasons. While I was temporarily back in the West during covid lockdowns, one is bombarded with 100% propaganda about gold/silver from all Western analysts. It’s not that I didn’t know everything being disseminated by Western analysts in their precious metals analysis was propaganda. Of course I did. However, with Asia now my home base once again, it’s exponentially easier to bounce my analysis of gold/silver with other perspectives from people that truly understand gold/silver markets unlike the virtual echo chamber of gold/silver propaganda that exists in the Americas. Secondly, as you likely noted if you listened to the above podcast in its entirety, I released my daily analysis last Friday at 3:30 AM EST. Due to the fact that days and nights are reversed in the West and Asia, it’s possible for me to put in an hour of analysis every day to get the most pertinent, up-to-date analysis to my clients on a daily basis well before markets open in New York. I can guarantee you that there is no Western gold/silver analyst waking up at 2AM or 3AM every morning to look at the most relevant data from Shanghai, London and New York the previous day to provide the best daily analysis he can to his clients before the markets open in New York every day. By nature of the differences in time zone, all analysts based in Asia will be able to provide better analysis of PM markets to anyone stationed in the West. So, if you don’t follow me, follow another PM analyst with a strong track record of accurate gold/silver price predictions every week for multiple years that is based in Asia.

To hear more, visit tomiiacademy.substack.comEditor’s Correction: There was a typo that respectively referenced the years 2017/2018 as 2007 and 2008 in the below article that has since been corrected. The question I hear endlessly repeated in the BTC community is the following: Why haven’t governments been able to stop the existence of BTC? If BTC were an intelligence agency psyop and I worked for the CIA, this is the exact question I would want asked by the BTC community all over the world. Why? I’ll answer that question in a moment, but first let’s lay the groundwork to answer that question.Ninety-nine%+ of BTC technical charting analysts have never made more than one significant accurate prediction about a BTC price movement within a six month time frame that has come true (if we qualify significant as more than a 45% drop in price and more than a 90% gain in price and accurate as being within a few thousand dollars of the exact top and bottom prices). That is a fact. I have made five such predictions that fit these qualifications. Anyone can present themselves as a technical charting expert today because there is literally software one can purchase for a few hundred dollars or less you that will automatically draw all lines, curves, Fibonacci retracement levels on an asset price chart and inform the user how these technical charting patterns should be interpreted. Thus, one can easily transform from a Political Science or English literature major today into a technical charting YouTuber “expert” tomorrow.  But ask yourself, because surely if you invest in BTC, you have followed one or more of these analysts in the past, how many of them have the documented track record I do of accuracy on repeated significant BTC price movements (as defined above) since 2017? And the answer to this question should be terrifying to most because I likely do not even spend 2% of the time analyzing BTC prices as do these full time BTC technical chart analysts. How many of them called the BTC exact top price of $20,000 in 2017, accurately predicted a 50% price crash to $10,000 and then another 50% crash to $5k in 201Edi8 as I did? How many called a massive upswing in price at the end of 2020 as I did and publicly posted this prediction on YouTube as I did? How many then in 2021, correctly called BTC’s interim price top at $58k after rising from $20k, later that year accurately called BTC’s interim price low at $29k, and then finally called BTC’s second interim price high at $66k in November 2021? (all these price predictions are still documented on my patreon platform).I realize that my interim price tops in 2021 were a few thousand dollars off the interim highs but who called every high and every low in 2021 correctly as I did, in addition to the exact price top in 2017, a 75% price decline  in 2018 that was only off by $2,000 ($5,000 versus the true low of $3,000)? And who did this without any reliance on technical charting but reliance simply on metrics based off banker manipulation of BTC prices? And by the way I have also predicted very accurate monthly price ranges for BTC for months on end from Q4 2023 to Q1 2024. These facts automatically provide massive credibility to one of my exposed lies of famous BTC advocates like Michael Saylor, a person that has repeatedly falsely claimed that BTC’s price is non-manipulable. If BTC’s price cannot be manipulated, then the probability of all the above BTC price predictions I provided from 2017 to 2021, and many other monthly predictions last year and this year that also were on point, should have been mere guesswork and had less than 0.000000001% probability of coming true. But yet they all came true. And if indeed BTC’s price is manipulable, even though Saylor is still up quite considerably on his BTC purchases, with his average purchase price per BTC roughly $35k as of May 2024, this realization should terrify him given its implications instead of leading to the smugness he continually expresses in his self-lauding.Furthermore, I issued all the above accurate predictions with minimal time spent on analysis as I categorize the asset of BTC as a pure speculation and not a core asset. Consequently, because I have no interest in being a gambler, but only an investor, despite the fact that BTC has paid off some extremely handsome payoffs to its early adopters, I have never invested in BTC. That said, I have always still congratulated those that have made millions from betting on BTC. It’s just not for me. But I stand by my firm claim that all those currently invested in it, if they are engaging in intelligent investment strategies, should never treat it as a core asset but as a speculative one.  Furthermore, it is my firm belief that the chance to earn a quick retirement nest egg that existed when BTC was less than $5k are long gone. Those that earned a 6X increase, from investing in BTC when its price was $10k to its current price of roughly $60k at the current time, is a yield in a speculative asset that frankly is nothing to write home about. Those that subscribe to my patreon know that I’ve yielded a 10X return on a speculative stock pick in the past, will likely do so in the future, and that I’ve accomplished a 6X yield in my options trading account already in just the first five months of this year.However, even so, I would never sell an options trading course with my “proprietary strategies of how to earn a 6X yield in just five months!” because I understand the ins and outs of options trading well enough to know that pitching such returns as replicable to others is completely sheisty, dishonorable, and false. The other day, I encountered a YouTube of some girl pitching an options trading course that will turn $1 into $7,900 (it was either $7,600 or $7,900), implying a 7,900 multiple. That is so absurd that I can only believe that the dumbest of the dumb would fall for such a pitch. If she really could help you turn a $1 investment into $7,900, then why would she not invest $10,000 of her own money into the same options trades and turn $10,000 into $79M. Surely doing so is a far easier method to earn $79M than convincing thousands of people to buy her options trading course.That said, I’m going to tell you, in the above podcast, a critical thing about BTC that none of these other BTC “expert” analysts will ever tell you.Building Wealth With Tomii Academy is a reader-supported publication.

We all know that the easiest way to pocket money in the finance industry is to tell your customers/clients exactly what they want to hear, depending upon what you’re selling, which is always that the assets they hold are going to skyrocket in price, as by nature, people’s strong confirmation bias tendencies make them gravitate towards positive assessments of the assets they hold and to dismiss the negative sentiments of the assets they hold. This is a tested and true formula. What is the most difficult character trait to display in this field is honesty, which consists of always dispensing one’s honest opinions, even if it is not what the clients want to hear. Thus, all honest bitcoin analysts in November 2021 informed their clients that Bitcoin was going to crash because the signs were so clear that this was going to happen that not only did I warn of this event once both on my Patreon platform and here, but I issued multiple warnings for BTC holders to sell ALL of their BTC back then. And then BTC crashed from $70k to less than $16k in just a few months. Likewise, though not as big a crash, I stated earlier this week the following:“With gold/silver markets closed for the entirety of Chinese New Years this week, I expect gold/silver prices to be pushed lower this week from their respective prices of $2027 and $22.64 by the Western MIB complex.”Though I don’t believe I provided exact bottom price targets here, I provided levels for the price pullbacks on my patreon platform, on which I provide daily analysis of gold and silver four times a week, every week (recall this platform is for my macro analysis and some stock picks and my patreon platform is for more day to day analysis, or micro analysis, both of which are vital for proper investment decisions). During the prior week of 5 February to 9 February, when gold was trading close to $2,040 and silver was close to $23, I stated a belief to my patrons that the Western banking cartel was going to use the week long Chinese New Year holiday to slam gold back down to below the $2,000 mark and silver to below $22. In fact my belief was so strong on the basis of research I conducted two weeks ago , that I informed my patrons interested in options trading strategies the necessity of closing an options trading strategy I had opened just a few days prior. I believed two weeks ago that a much better entry point was going to materialize for these call options in all likelihood this past week. And thus, I advocated closing out call options positions two weeks ago in silver assets at a slight profit or break even levels to reposition them for this past week. And that turned out to be the exact correct strategy as my predictions could only be optimized by investors willing to accept the bad news I told them, but bad news that would offer far better opportunities to go long with derivatives products like options.In other words, the majority of holders of BTC and gold never want to hear that the asset they hold is going to crash temporarily and to sell to avoid a big crash and they would much rather hear nonsense from perma bulls that their assets are always going to rise in price even when clearly, as was the case way back in November 2021, there was a far better chance of BTC temporarily crashing mightily than rising. In fact I informed my patrons opinions about gold and silver asset prices this past week that essentially were the same as opinions I dispensed about BTC in November 2021 - that there was a far better chance that being long would work out by temporarily exiting and then re-entering the market after a significant price dump occured. In both instances, the predicted scenario with the best probability of manifesting unveiled itself, at which point I then relayed my strategy to go long. And as you can see below now, with the use of basic proper exit strategies, if gold and silver prices get pushed back down next week, I will exit all my positions at profits and if they continue to move higher I will exit at much higher profits. In other words, I put my money where my mouth was regarding my own analysis and went long in many gold/silver assets once my predicted price dump occurred early last week.My options trades executed this past week based upon my own analysis provided here and on patreonFurthermore, the above positions are only a partial list of the positions I opened on the significant gold and silver price dump, as  I also opened some call options on some gold and silver mining stocks as well. Since I don’t disclose the exact amount of my positions as doing so allows investment firms that specifically tried to bankrupt me in the past to specifically target my positions for retribution, due to the nature of the topics about which I speak that they desire to remain unspoken, I removed the exact number of calls I opened for most of the above positions. However, in order for everyone to understand the confidence I possess in my own analysis, which is a very important aspect that I believe every analyst should demonstrate, I left enough raw data above for my purchased GDX options and some purchased SLV options to understand that I bought a minimum of $1k to an undisclosed amount of thousands of dollars in each option position I opened this past week. In any event, in a derivative investment product that received loads of attention during lockdowns, as bored retail traders ramped up their options strategies, only to be fleeced by the investment industry of more than a billion dollars during lockdowns, to open a position in a product that causes so many losses among retail investors requires a high level of belief in the quality of one’s own analysis. Otherwise, since the odds are firmly with the house (investment firms) and against the trader regarding turning profits from options trading, one will always be best served by abstaining from any options trading unless one is supremely confident in the analysis backing discussed options strategies. (Source: Bloomberg, “How Retail Options Traders Lost $1 Billion During the Pandemic.” 8 July 2022.)In any event, with some of my silver option calls nearly at a double, just a few days after opening them, with proper exit strategies, I should be able to reap realized profits of at least 50% or 60% profit given that I act on the courage of my convictions. But that said, I better have done the legwork and research to possess the conviction I possess. A lot of analysts exhibit conviction that is based upon arrogance and not real research, and their conviction leads to huge losses on their proposed strategies. And this is a lot more than can be said with the bulk of mutual fund managers in the industry today that are happy to allocate billions of dollars of other people’s money to their stock picks but refuse to even allocate $1 to their own picks. In other words, were they convicted in their own picks, they would have no problems allocating their own savings to them, but much more often than not, they do not.The Time Honored Financial Industry Tradition of Telling People What They Want to HearAn investment analyst worthy of your time will always tell you his or her best researched opinions about the most probable outcomes for asset prices that should yield a solid track record over time, and never just what you want to hear. Had I started a substack newsletter called, “All the Reasons Bitcoin Will Go to a Million Dollars” at the same time I started this one, I have zero doubt because tens of thousands of BTC investors exist that are thirsty for this narrative, that my monthly revenues would be a 10X multiple of what they’ve been from this newsletter, in which I remain committed to always telling the truth about my financial opinions. However, in being a BTC analyst that wants to grow his or her fees, it literally is impossible to tell the truth, because the only circumstance that would grow such a newsletter to tens, or perhaps hundreds of thousands of clients, is an assumed deliberate strategy of forwarding reasons why BTC prices will forever move higher, 24/7 without a single injected dose of reality (I’ll provide my BTC price outlook for the remainder of this month below). As well, if I partook or partake in this same duplicitous strategy in my analysis of gold and silver assets, it would likely create much faster growth than always forwarding my real opinions that originate from loads of time-consuming meticulous research, as doing so often involves informing people of things they do not want to hear at the moment. And as all long time followers of mine know here, when gold and silver asset prices have had great runs and peaked in the past, I always will relay this opinion, even though the dispensation of propaganda of continuing much higher gold and silver prices would put far more money in my pocket.Thus, a simple way to eliminate the most fraudulent of analysts,skwealthacademy is a reader-supported publication. The great majority of my published articles require many hours of research, writing and editing. To receive full access, consider becoming a paid subscriber.which is the vast majority of analysts in this field, is to dismiss those that are asset permabulls or asset permabears, as this is an impossible stance to take with highly price volatile assets that historically have always exhibited a lot of price volatility both to the upside and downside. Thus for someone to be a permabull in precious metals and/or bitcoin exposes such a person as taking a stance for personal enrichment reasons and not to provide the best, most honest analysis possible. And just for the newbies here, there have been several times I issued a buy opinion on BTC after predicting BTC crashes. For example, in July 2021, when BTC crashed to $30k, I issued a buy opinion for BTC before issuing a sell everything opinion in November 2021. And if you want to know my opinion about BTC right now, I’ll provide that below as well, so keep reading. However, since it is a provable fact that no asset price rises higher without major corrections and no asset heads straight down in price unless perhaps, the CEO of a company has been endlessly lying to the media about the ongoing financial viability and sustainability of his firm, as happened with both Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns during the 2008 global financial crisis, from a purely rational and intellectual perspective, somebody that remains committed to a unidirectional price outlook about a very price volatile asset should never be trusted.The Most Problematic Commitment Issues with InvestorsAll commitment issues with investors originate from following the wrong analysts. Many investors make the mistake of ditching assets they should hold given wild price volatility swings to the downside because the analysts they follow never explain the origins of the downside price swing other than a useless “all asset prices take a breather after a large run to the upside” explanation. Knowing whether to keep holding or to ditch an asset requires a much more intellectual explanation than this as well as proper guidance from a competent analyst. Incorrect commitment issues that plague investors consist of two scenarios: Holding on to assets they should sell during big price rises, and selling assets they should hold during big price dumps. But making the proper commitment on whether to ditch an asset on a price pullback or remain vested, or whether to dump or keep holding an asset after a big price rise can often yield a very confusing decision due to muddied analytical waters provided by poor analysts. A good analyst however, will make muddy waters clear about such decisions. Furthermore, this doesn't mean an analyst will be correct 100% of the time with the provision of a well researched and thought out strategy. But at a minimum, the explanation should clarify the outlook far better than a simplistic explanation every other analyst also provides (like predicted asset price rises based upon a 20% capture of market cap of all investable assets) better reserved as an explanation by a teenager with no investment experience. Lastly, even with the provision of far superior explanations of strategies than most, that analyst`s long term track record should yield far more wins than losses. As many of you know, I reside in Asia. Consequently, I usually try to be in bed by 10PM (a mere 30 minutes after New York markets open). This schedule enables me to obtain a solid 7 hours of sleep a night as I usually rise by 5AM every day. Thus, I fully expect experienced traders on my patron platform that followed my options strategies to have better profits from this past week than even the ones I posted above, as I only have a thirty minute window to execute my trades whereby others that live in the Western hemisphere can be more patient and execute buys at better prices. As such, all should experienced investors should have been able to purchase even the stocks I advocated yesterday at slightly better prices than my designated market open prices yesterday, as it was quite clear that the prices of all three stocks opened the day on a downtrend at market open, before reversing and ending yesterday’s session higher. Of course, I’m not dumb and I do not leave my established positions open to a potential 40% loss by the time I arise the next day, if my price predictions do not pan out as predicted. Thus, I usually commit a taboo sin in options trading, which is to put a day sell limit order on my call options positions to ensure that while I’m asleep, the worst outcome I can experience is to exit break even or end up with a minimal loss. I label this behavior as taboo for all options traders under normal circumstances because it exposes open options positions to criminal HFT algorithms deployed by large commercial financial institutions that “hunt” automated sell orders on options (and stock) positions to force an executed sell. However, once the option prices move far enough away from one’s buy price and yields paper profits like 80% or 90%, then using sell limit orders becomes a much more tenable strategy for those that can’t watch the market all day. Algorithmic HFT software, while it can force a drop of 20% to 30% in option prices, cannot create an 80% drop in options prices in a single trading session under normal circumstances. In any event, I only use such strategies out of necessity. If I were still living in Mexico at the moment, and my daytime was also daytime in New York, I would never employ such a strategy.Nevertheless, to solidify my point, let me relay an anecdotal story. Two weeks ago, many of my Asian friends, knowing I am a gold analyst, asked if they should buy gold prior to Chinese New Year, as many Asians are always seeking to buy more physical gold from the numerous stores that sell gold in virtually every Asian nation (a fact that may be shocking to Americans and other Westerners as gold dealers are still scarce even with the addition of big box retailers like Costco recently adding gold bars to their product base). I told them the exact same thing I relayed above and that I relayed to my patrons last week. I mentioned my belief that gold would be hit hard this past week and that, despite the fact that I could not guarantee I would be correct, I strongly believed it would be better to wait for lower prices to materialize this past week. After encountering a few of them at the end of this past week, I expected them to thank me for saving them $40 an ounce on their purchases of gold. Instead, I surprisingly learned that all had ignored my guidance and completed their purchases two weeks ago. When I asked them why, they said that everything they read in the mass media convinced them that gold prices would keep rising this past week due to the heavy expected physical gold buying during Chinese New Years. Since this narrative made sense from a cursory perspective, they ignored my guidance and embraced the narrative espoused in the mass media. And this is a perfect example of acting on what you want to hear (buy and price goes up) versus understanding the reality of the more likely scenario (the one of gold dropping below $2,000 and silver dropping below $22 that I had told them). This is also an example of the massive lack of applicable real knowledge in the financial industry in this world, due to all the propaganda and lies spread about finance in university classrooms around the world. It is also the reason I always state that “the knowledge is power” saying is a lie. It doesn’t matter if someone gives you knowledge that will benefit you if you don’t have the capacity to understand you should heed it instead of ignore it. In this case, knowledge offered zero power to them. By the way, since I am working 15 hour days, every day, to launch my Academy very soon, including even on Saturdays, check out the new, updated  fact sheet about my Academy I’ve uploaded here.Even in Asia, because true knowledge about the price mechanisms that move the price of gold is often lacking in the knowledge base of investors, investors fail to commit to right decisions about buying physical gold (and gold mining stocks) because they are too easily influenced by the false narratives propagated in the media and by analysts that receive large media exposure that are incorrect nearly 100% of the time. The mass media in Asia heavily propagated the story of “buy now before it’s too late (propagandized FOMO or Fear Of Missing Out)” in the week prior to Chinese New Years, given explanations I’ve discussed above. But unfortunately, surface basis financial analysis, or analysis that is produced to convince investors that “what they see is what they will get” hardly ever comes to fruition.  Instead, one should always commit to investment decisions not by what sounds reasonable on the surface, but on the basis of what is most likely to happen. And this requires true understanding of an asset class unspoiled by mass media narratives of “popular” analysts and real accompanying education to correctly execute this decision making paradigm. The reality of the situation is that gold and silver prices right now are still not moved significantly by heavy Asian physical buying but by behind-the-scenes manipulation executed by Central Bankers. Just so you understand the context within which my friends made their decisions, I explained the above fact to my inquiring friends but they were too brainwashed by their MBAs to understand this truth, and thus, remained committed to the false Asian media propaganda about gold prices continuing to move higher from $2,030 and $2,040 this week (Apologies to any of my friends if you are reading this article for putting your brainwashed mindset on full blast here but doing so is solely for the benefit of all my subscribers!) Unfortunately, it is quite natural for the majority of us, in our investment decisions, to embrace the exact wrong beliefs that will serve us best as investors. And since I have always been very transparent about my honest beliefs about asset price behavior, and have always stated when I think asset prices will go down as well as up, hopefully this makes my recent analysis about the future direction of gold/silver mining stock prices, asset prices that have been pushed down significantly to start this year, even more valuable. Though I could have executed the exact same strategies with mining stocks, I often deploy different strategies between stocks and derivative option products because of past history that informs me, most investors do NOT want to put in a lot of work for profits. For example, in one year in which I returned 69% yields from all my trades in a 12-month period, I actually lost customers because they told me the work I required was too much for them, even though these customers that left had admitted never experiencing such a high 12-month yield in their entire investment career. Thus, when it comes to PM mining stocks, if my analysis informs me that patience can still produce high yields in the end, I will not provide guidance to trade in and out of certain stocks multiple times within a short time frame of a few months as I would with derivative products, due to the much more specialty nature and more price volatile nature of options trading. Not many investors engage in options trading as numerous studies reveal massive losses suffered by retail traders engaging in options trading in recent years. That said, quickly exiting call options trades is 100% necessary with this type of investment if one spots a potential significant temporary price suppression event due to the quick paper losses that will pile up without acting quickly. With stocks that exhibit far less daily price volatility, as events like a single trading session 40% loss, commonly experienced among option prices is rarely exhibited with stock prices, exhibiting patience as a strategy can still be executed as an intelligent strategy. Thus, if the probability of negative price volatility in stocks can be overcome with adequate patience, I tend to advocate the patience method with temporary negative price volatile periods suffered with stocks, and this strategy cannot be ultimately judged until we know whether or not the strategy of patience paid off or not. In addition, we ultimately can judge such a strategy within a 12-month time frame and judging a patience philosophy does not rely on the disingenuous trick often used by BTC analysts to defend their strategies of predicting a $500,000 price point within a five-year time frame that they persistently defend by stating that five years have not passed. No matter the price point of BTC, even if its price is $50,000 within 12-months of their predicted deadline, they never cease providing the excuse that five years have not yet passed so their prediction shall not be judged. And often, BTC price analysts kick their price predictions two or five years further down the road when it becomes clear their original price predictions will not come true, and “update” their prediction to a 7 or 10-year price prediction, all the while sticking to their prediction being a 5-year prediction when it is clearly no longer the case. Loads of BTC price analysts that predicted triple digit price predictions by the end of 2021 engaged in this duplicitious move by kicking the can of their predictions down the road until 2030 to claim they were not wrong in 2021, when clearly they were. And if they’re wrong in 2030, they will merely kick the can of their predictions down the road until 2035. We must be smart enough to understand that predictions that cannot be judged within a 12-month to 18-month timeframe are not predictions, but marketing ploys designed to keep you beholden to an incorrect narrative. Even though the trend is still up for BTC prices right now and I don’t foresee any crash in price for the rest of this month, it is never wise to dismiss a contrarian investor’s perspective by twisting their words to fit your own outlook. Many, not all, but many investors unfortunately always just hear what they want to hear, even when I state very different outlooks than the ones they falsely interpret them to be. In the past, regarding certain assets that I thought would crash due to my research, when I’ve made statements like the preceding sentence, some people have responded by asking me why I’ve changed my mind about that asset, an invalid question in regard to the analysis provided. Time frames provided for asset price predictions matter. For instance, loads of research I conducted about likely probabilites of BTC price behavior at the end of last year led me to predict higher BTC prices in November capped at $45k, higher BTC prices in December capped at $50k and a pullback in prices to start this year. However, analysis is always dynamic and requires updating, as the data I use for such predictions changes daily and constanntly evolves. So, in my best estimate, I think BTC prices have a little further to run this month, but should be relegated to the $53k to $58k range. But my immediate term prediction (for only this month) does not invalidate my past issued opinions that the Western MIB complex still seeks to demolish BTC prices at some point in the future due to the opposition it provides to their CBDCs. And it is quite foolish to believe Western spot BTC ETFs will protect against the possibility of such an event as bankers have only used their creation of gold and silver GLD and SLV ETFs to push gold/silver prices lower, not higher. It is quite obvious to me and likely to any analyst that analyzes movements in both gold/silver and BTC markets that the movement higher in BTC prices was used by the MIB complex to aid their execution of slamming gold/silver prices lower this week. Thus, one should be wary that much of the last couple months’ of BTC price rise was manufactured to suppress gold and silver prices. As I’ve illustrated multiple times in the past in this very newsletter, a direct inverse correlation between gold/silver and BTC prices sometimes manifests in an exact syncing, to the minute, of the start time a significant rise in BTC prices starts and a significant price dump in gold/silver prices occurs. And when this inverse correlation amounts to gold/silver prices lower and BTC prices higher, one must always be cautious about the negative BTC price effects that may result when gold/silver prices finally reach their bottoms and experience reversals.Despite successful manipulation efforts of the MIB complex with gold/silver prices, including the one just executed during Chinese New Years, unlike the uneducated beliefs of many that don’t understand the mechanisms of the manipulation game, the MIB complex cannot crash gold all the way back down to $800 an ounce or take silver to $9 an ounce as they did during the 2008 financial crisis. Too many factors has changed about the manipulation game, including massive changes in how Eurasian nations view the USD, since then for the MIB cartel to ever pull off such a feat again moving forward. Thus, a floor in prices to their manipulation game exists, that after its achievement, forces the Military Industrial Banking complex to release their downward price suppression schemes against gold and silver, consequently creating strong upward price movements for gold and silver assets. In other words, enough positive pushback to the MIB gold/silver price suppression schemes have happened in Eurasian nations from 2008 until present day that has transformed the West price manipulation schemes to now abide by Newton’s Third Law of Motion - for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. For now, the interdynamics of the East’s push back against the West’s gold and silver price slams puts Newton’s Third Law of Motion into effect with gold/silver price behavior.Thus, if gold breaks above $2,050 and silver above $23.50 in the coming weeks and stays there, the $2,100 and $24 to $25 levels will become inevitable and likely quickly come into play. Thereafter, if the MIB complex feels that higher BTC prices will no longer aid them in their price suppression schemes against gold and silver, then this very good two month run for BTC prices could end next month with a decline in BTC prices. Again, though I’m seeing possibilities of this happening, I’m not yet seeing strong possibilities of this happening imminently, so I’ll revisit this topic at month’s end or when this possibility becomes more imminent.  But just know that 99% of BTC analysts will never make any BTC HODLer aware of any realistic downside probabilities just as many of the gold “journalists” in Asia predicted rising prices throughout Chinese New Years this past week because they have zero understanding of the mechanisms that actually set prices (outside of China).Lastly, stay tuned next week because I feel the time to buy uranium mining stocks for a big upside move is closing in, as many of the mining stocks I track continued to fall in price throughout this past week (and if you don’t understand why I’m so positive on the future outlook of uranium mining stocks under circumstances in which their share prices have been relentlessly pushed down for about two and a half  straight weeks now, just read my uranium article I published this past week).

As you all know, if I post on the weekends, I will publish non-finance related posts, and today fulfills my usual publication pattern. This leads to a lot of people, only here for the financial related posts, to skip all my weekend posts. But if you are among this segment of my subscribers, please read at least the first couple paragraphs of today’s written post before deciding to skip it and the accompanying podcast. In today’s podcast posted above, I speak of the need to beware the self-serving, narcissistic, bloodsucking, soul crushing message of the establishment’s widely spread false narrative about fame, wealth and success that leave billions directionless and without meaning in life.   Nearly every message the Ruling Class establishment forwards these days, whether through pop culture, social media, mass media or even through their billionaire puppets, involves elevating self over others, a special type of narcissism that leads us all into a descent into darkness.I’ve always preached a message of success diametrically opposed by the definition of success forwarded by the Ruling Class establishment and even the majority of teachers and professors employed within the institution of academics. I’ve always preached that success is not defined by any singular factor like the self-serving accumulation of money and material wealth, but defined by multiple factors such as the balanced, holistic attainment of strong financial health, strong physical health and strong mental health that manifests in service to others. And these other integral elements of “success” ignored by those lured by establishment narratives to pursue the singular mission of fame and fortune at the expense of all else, unfortunately creates massively poor mental health among the masses that suffer debilitating thoughts of suicide that leave no room for positive thoughts.When I state in the above podcast that a component of service to others is necessary for sustainable happiness in our lives, I state this due to the necessity of realizing that the world, let alone the universe, does not revolve around us, and that if we give in to every single desire and impulse we experience without any restraint and discipline, that this will create an unhappy life.  For example, unless one has a hormonal disorder that leads to obesity, obesity is a choice, but a choice manifested through serving every single whim with zero discipline. I have never met an obese person (without a hormonal imbalance that causes obesity) that does not give into every whim to consume unhealthy food that tastes good with little nutritional value such as fast food, tons of processed foods, massive quantities of sugar laden soda over fresh fruits, vegetables, grains and meat. And therefore obesity originates from a lack of self-control and constant self-service to one’s desires. But there is no doubt that being healthy and fit serves everyone better, including bringing more joy to the person that is healthy and fit as they can enjoy nature more, move about easily without being out of breath in executing normal every day tasks, and increase the probability that they will live a much longer life to provide for dependent children or merely to interact with friends and family. Thus, even in a choice to eat for nutrition and exercise regularly, one makes a choice to serve others, like one’s children, friends and family, than just making a choice to serve oneself, as the ruling class establishment clearly preaches by the type of narcissistic, self-serving people they elevate to fame on social media platforms.My belief that a life of service must be an element to achieve sustainable happiness in life also ties into the very first sentence of today’s post. For those that choose to be healthy and fit, many times this choice coincides with a desire to live longer to provide for their children or to fulfill a purpose in life that often has to do with serving others, so in the end, even though the end goal benefits the one pursuing the goal, it is accomplished with the purpose of serving others. But look at the fame and fortune attained by social media influencers that only serve themselves, as dozens of them have run cryptocurrency scams that stole hundreds of millions of dollars from their followers, with no concern for the fact that they stole savings that their followers could not afford to lose without being ruined financially, with the sole purpose of enriching themselves financially. And some of these people today that have bilked millions from others and refuse to correct their past wrongs, including the Wolf of Wall Street, preach concepts like serving others and being kind to others, which also should warn you that those that preach being a person of honor are often the worst hypocrites in the entire world.Such messages are even spread in memes forwarded by much more popular pop icons like DJ Khaled, who always screams “We the Best!” in all of his songs, an approach that much more subtly spreads self glorification. And thus, when such icons are among those exposed in participating in sheisty cryptocurrency schemes for money that swindled millions, the alignment of narcissistic behavior with narcissistic slogans makes complete sense.

Times of great struggle reveal our true friends as well as disloyal acquaintances that we may have mistakenly believed to be true friends.  However, times of great struggle are not the times to learn that those we believed would support us have abandoned us. And the importance of understanding who are our true friends versus our fake friends before mass chaos manifests in our world is the reason why I decided to record the above podcast, so that we all may have a basis in understanding how to separate our true friends from our fake ones if we have not already done so by now.As I have been relentlessly persecuted by the banking establishment for unapologetically exposing their iniquities, I have been exposed to many frauds that pretended to be my friends over the decades, with people even sending me emails that they were contacting me because they “wanted to help me”, but I was able to see straight through all of their deceptions because I used the basis of the foundation for good men and women above to discern whether, despite approaching me as a “friend”, they were friend or foe. When society breaks down due to systemic breakdowns of global financial infrastructure, banking systems and markets that precipitate alongside intensifying global war, this is not the time to discover that those we believed to be true friends are nowhere to be found. And because of the Great Deception being imposed upon us by the ruling class Establishment, unfortunately, hundreds of millions  will find themselves in this situation in coming years.  Also, don’t get my message in the above podcast twisted in regard to religion, because no person of faith will ever condemn someone they know for not knowing faith, as love, not condemnation and hatred, is always the road upon which truth dwells. And even then the topic of love is much too complex for me to discuss with the attention it deserves within the limitations of this article as not all love is equal, i.e. the love of money serves self and is not honorable. Whether or not someone can be trusted in the future simply boils down to observation of that person’s actions in being helpful to others or persistently selfish, though being a good judge of character also is necessary, as many times people will help you solely with the mission of taking advantage of you later.Thus, because in today’s post I speak of how we can identify strong, honorable men that do not shy away from struggle in their lives, the type of men we all will need as partners and allies when societal chaos breaks out around the world, today’s post is far more related to finance than it may first appear, though it is related to ensuring our safety and longevity during periods of financial chaos and breakdown that are ahead of us. As I’ve previously stated countless times, just as nearly every single principle about money and investing online is the opposite of truth and truths in this arena have been relentlessly buried and censored by the establishment, the establishment has also buried the truth about many other foundational pillars of society, including religion, politics and war (I realized this last pillar should be peace, not war, but unfortunately war has become a pillar of our lifetime). I can honestly state that most everything every person that is fiercely anti-religious believes about religion is the exact opposite of truth and is merely the propaganda narratives of religion dispensed over centuries by the establishment Ruling Class. Allow me to explain. Most people’s hatred of religion stems from a lack of spending any time studying religion that creates a misinterpretation and misunderstanding of religion that is the exact opposite of truth. For example, I’ve spoken to numerous people that express a complete disdain for religion that explain their disdain due to seemingly unlimited historical atrocities (the Spanish Inquisition, the Crusades, the Iraq War in which US President Bush publicly stated God told him to drop bombs on Baghdad, modern terrorist attacks, etc.) committed in the name of religion. However, my simple intellectual rebuttal to this claim is to ask that person to show me where the murder of innocent people is preached in scriptures. Though I agree that some laws are written in scriptures that seem ridiculous for modern times, that is because there are many different kinds of laws contained in scriptures. Some, such as, do not kill innocent people and love your neighbor as yourself, were written to be timeless. Others were written with an “expiration date”, meant to apply only to the ancient time in which they were written and once that period passed, so did their applicability. This is why many Biblical laws written in scripture seem ridiculous today, because they would be ridiculous if applied to modern life and they were never written to apply to an era other than the era in which they were written. Finally, other rules were meant to be kept by the Israeli Jews to differentiate them from other heathen cultures that surrounded them back in ancient times. Consequently, they also were never meant to be applied to future generations once that era expired. However, for religious laws meant to be timeless, like do not kill innocent people, I would fathom that anyone with a moral compass, religious or not, would agree with them. But the lack of understanding of these scholarly topics causes many people to dismiss religion, as written in historical texts, as “stupid”.Thus, people that claim that religion is responsible for some of the worst atrocities in human history do not make the very critical distinction that such atrocities were committed by men professing to be religious that were in reality, vehemently and fiercely ANTI-religious. A lot of the atrocities they committed directly violated the most sacred of timeless religious laws, like do not kill innocent people. Consequently, it does not require a Mensa genius to deduce that anyone that advocates justified killing of the innocent  in the name of religion, as is currently happening in both sides of a “religious” war being fought today in Gaza, is fiercely ANTI-religious and does not have a shred of religious spirit or faith living in them. Before I spent a single minute ever reading about religion, studying religion and therefore understanding the nuances we must understand in arguments made to demonize the institution of religion, such as atrocities committed by so-called religious people that can be easily discredited as committed by people that were devoutly ANTI-religious, I too, was fooled by these sophomoric arguments into being anti-religious and thought that the institution of religion exerted a net negative, instead of a net positive social footprint on society. Even today, prominent social media personalities that the mass media praise to high heaven as “intellectuals” and “religiously honorable” preach and advocate for limitless justified killings of innocent people in war. This exposes the complete destruction of even the most basic critical thinking skills among the hundreds of millions worldwide that lap up such propaganda. This is why I always reiterate today, that anyone that argues an authoritative narrative without performing any research to distinguish if that narrative is true or false, whether that narrative is about experimental healthcare drugs mandated as necessary for everyone or narratives that are hell-bent on instructing us who is the right and wrong side in war, should be unilaterally classified as a fool. And unfortunately, such fools incapable of separating illogical emotion from intellectual truth, are destined for immense suffering when the financial chaos arrives sometime between this year and 2028.Why? Because the same irrational lack of logic that applies to their thinking about religion will guide their thought and beliefs about protecting their savings during our next global financial fallout that will exceed in scope and nature our last global financial crisis in 2008.The reason it is so easy for many of us to be fooled into non-intellectual arguments regarding topics of an emotional nature is due to a continued service of self instead of a conscious choice to serve others. We can all agree that arguments about war, religion and even money and finance are most times never rooted in facts, but rooted in emotion, and thus the reason we have always been told that politics, religion and money are three topics to be avoided at all costs at the dinner table, if we wish to have a pleasant dining experience, whether that experience is with one other person or many others. However, I’ve always believed that all three topics are very broachable at the dinner table if all parties would commit to discussing such topics from a non-emotional, intellectual perspective rooted in scholarly facts and not emotion. Just as the blatantly wrong, ignorant-about-science community numbered in the millions and ignorantly damned the scholarly that understood real science, not the “science” promoted by people in positions of authority, and therefore refused to wear face masks and to be administered drugs that had not undergone proper robust clinical trials for DNA toxicology, safety or efficacy, the millions that scream about the atrocious crimes against humanity for which religion bears responsibility argue such points from a place of ignorance and zero scholarship about religion. Unfortunately, the reason these topics cannot be spoken about without losing civility at the dinner table is because the ruling class establishment has brainwashed all of us into serving self instead of enlightening us about the importance of serving others in order to be a good man or a good woman in this world. Thus, when we speak of such topics and disagree, the disagreements quickly devolve into one of the most debased emotional states in which the involved parties concern themselves with “winning” the heated argument instead of being correct, because “winning” a debate serves one’s ego and thus becomes top priority.However, those that understand the necessity of serving others to create the most humane society possible always consider the debate from the opposition point of view, which then yields infinitely more humane outlooks, as we can all realize that if someone murdered our mother, father, brother, sister, nephew and uncle as we ate dinner inside of our apartment complex, that such an act would create hatred for the people that bombed us no matter our race,  faith, age, level of wealth or poverty or skin color.  Viewing typically emotionally heated subjects through the lens of morality would lead to a humane solution in war because all resolutions would consider a resolution that serves the best interests of all innocent people, instead of just the side so many of us have emotionally, not intellectually, committed to as the “right” side.Biblical scripture condemns the murder of innocent people and states that the worst religious crime of all is to hurt innocent children and that it is a better for those that harm innocent children to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck and thrown into the deepest depths of the ocean than what awaits them in the afterlife. Yet, there is not one political or alphabet agency leader, not one, despite dozens of them being privy to damning evidence contained on Jeffrey Epstein’s computer hard drives, willing to do the right thing and prevent harm to thousands more innocent children. If there are any intelligence agency leaders that claim to be religious that have not acted to prosecute the very powerful people found culpable on Epstein’s hard drives of committing heinous acts against innocent children, we must understand that these people are fiercely ANTI-religious, as concealing deplorable evidence to protect the world’s richest most powerful men is the antithesis of all religious moral laws.Thus, we must understand that the continual condemnation of religion for the failure of anti-religious people is comical, though a very powerful and effective propaganda narrative of the godless ruling class that controls all media today.Condemnation of all the world’s historical atrocities committed in the “name of religion” is actually condemnation of historical atrocities committed by religious demagogues that were fiercely anti-religious in all of their demonstrated behavior.  And those that condemn such acts are 100% correct to condemn them all, though 100% wrong to blame religion for these atrocities. In addition, when people state they are anti-religious because religious leaders use religion to control and brainwash people, these people are also 100% wrong, because religious leaders that preach hatred against other people are 100% anti-religious. Self-professed religious leaders that behave badly in the name of religion for riches, power and control are all, by religions’ own documented laws, fiercely anti-religious sociopaths and hypocrites.The Remarkable Erasure of Critical Thinking in the Way We Think About Everything (And How the Ruling Class Has Turned Billions of Us into the Epitome of Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man to Spread Their Lies)The reason I chose to focus on religion, though obviously a very controversial topic, in illustrating the establishment’s erasure of critical thinking in our assignment of blame for the world’s most brutal atrocities is because of the complexity required to speak intellectually about religion. Religion, due to its emotional weight in topical material, requires extremely careful thought in order to provide easily comprehensible arguments that explain why blame assigned to religion for many of the world’s historical atrocities is an incorrect conclusion. And if I can adequately perform this feat with religion, since the ruling class uses these exact same tactics to lead billions of us astray regarding our decisions about finance, investing and money, it then becomes infinitely easier to expose the relentless nature of financial propaganda shoved down our throats as well.Before I proceed with finance, however, let me just provide the corollary to the argument that the institution of religion is responsible for mass murders throughout history to prove the non-intellectual nature of this argument. Many of the most horrific mass murders in world history, including the relentless torture and genocide of one out of every four people in Cambodia, including the most horrific experiments that involved the dismemberment of humans while they were still alive, were carried out by atheists and the atheist dictator Pol Pot. The largest genocide in world history was committed under the leadership of avowed atheist Mao Tse Tung, where low estimates of people killed under his reign in China number 50 million and high estimates number 80 million. I could continue for many more paragraphs, discussing horrific crimes against humanity committed by other avowed atheists in history like Stalin and Hitler. Yet, we never hear an argument from the ruling class establishment that atheism is responsible for the world’s worst humanitarian atrocities.The fact that we don’t is because this topic is approached from a non-emotional intellectual level as no documented interviews exist with these monsters that would allow us to conclude beyond doubt that their lack of faith directly gave rise to their horrible acts that resulted in the murders of hundreds of millions of people. Thus, from an intellectual perspective, we should not attribute their horrible acts to atheism as dozens of other factors could possibly explain their zealotry in murdering innocent people, such as child abuse, lack of any responsible parental guidance, a belief that humans have no purpose in life that leads to a failure to condemn murder as sinful, and so on. And this is the very intellectual argument that should apply to the dismissal of absurd arguments that religion is responsible for mass murder as well. In fact, we can be 100% positive that the truthful answer to the question, “Are you against the murder of innocent people?” among so-called religious leaders that have committed such atrocities is “No”, simply based upon evidence that they issued commands that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands to millions of innocent people. And that violation of religious law would make them fiercely ANTI-religious despite the ruling class establishment continuing to sell us a message today that religious people were responsible for the widespread and numerous atrocities they committed against humanity.After I finally understood all of the above, which required years of scholarly study to understand, I can claim with all honesty that I have still yet to learn of one truly religious person, whose acts are, and will always be, grounded in love, that committed deplorable acts to which I was morally opposed. It’s not to say such people are infallible, as all among us are fallible, religious or not. During my study of accusations of religion’s link to human atrocities, I however, learned of thousands of ANTI-religious people that were falsely framed by the ruling class establishment as religious simply because they held positions of authority within religious institutions. I will expose, with ease, the false nature of this argument soon, so I hope you keep reading and stay tuned. Recall that earlier in this article, I revealed that scriptures assigned, as among the very lowest of crimes any of us could commit, the harming of an innocent child. Yet, all of us are aware of leaders of religious institutions that have protected and shielded from criminal prosecution, adults that committed heinous crimes against children (SA). Consequently, while irrational emotion may lead the willfully ignorant to conclude that they should continue to revere such religious leaders, intellect will always inform us of the morally correct and true path that such a leader should be immediately disavowed for embodying the antithesis of religious behavior.Bad and deplorable people infiltrate every institution of this world but this unfortunate truth does not, in it of itself, make the institution deplorable.There is an intellectual difference in the two concepts discussed above. Just as I applied this  intellectual truth to religions, we can now apply this same intellectual argument to other institutions as well. There have been historical, documented cases of nurses that were caught injecting dangerous drugs into hundreds of patients’ IV drips that were responsible for their eventual deaths. Because we have instances of nurses that murdered dozens to hundreds of patients and were among the worst civilian serial killers in modern history (though instances of far worse political serial killers exist),  this dark fact does not make the institution of nursing and medicine an evil one that should be abolished. In addition, a long storied history of authorities approving drugs that caused the killing of hundreds of thousands of people exist, among them the anti-inflammatory, arthritis medicine Vioxx, believed to have killed an estimated half a million people before authorities finally acknowledged existing data that proved hundreds of thousands of people taking this drug were dying. Though eventually, authorities finally mandated that Vioxx should not be sold to prospective patients, their life saving mandate to pull Vioxx from the shelves of all pharmacies did not occur until after years of data already existed about Vioxx’s link to hundreds of thousands of deaths. Yet, in response to this fiasco, one of literally hundreds of fiascos involving “approved” drugs that killed thousands to hundreds of thousands of people, we do not hear arguments that all pharmaceuticals are evil and that no drug should ever be administered to any patient ever again. Why? Because of the scientific evidence we have of the benefits of modern pharmacology in saving and prolonging lives, and our intellectual ability to distinguish between the self-serving, evil behaviors of some authorities that committed atrocities in the pursuit of money and the humanitarian benefits of anti-bacterial drugs that have saved millions of human lives.  I think we can all agree that the entire institution of healthcare and even pharmaceuticals is not evil, but it is the evil actions of people in positions of authority that give rise to evil outcomes. But even in the instance in which an entire institution works against the best interests of humanity, like banking, we can also agree that due to ignorance of the facts about the banking institution, that there are likely some good people unaware of the harm they are committing against humanity at the top of a few banking institutions. And most of us can agree that is not the institution of banking that is evil, but the actions of those within the top positions of power and authority that yield evil outcomes, like growing global poverty and wealth inequality. And anyone that has studied sound monetary systems would even argue that banking, if it reverts to sound money as used in past historical times, would even revert to a force for good, instead of bad, among humanity.Yet, we never hear the ruling class establishment call for the abolition of the fractional reserve banking system, even though a non-emotional, intellectual argument would call for the permanent end of the fractional reserve banking system that only serves the interests of its owners, a tiny fraction of all humanity. Furthermore, it goes without saying that the institution of politics have given rise to many of the world’s worst genocides in history when sociopaths have risen to the top positions of political power and authority. Thus, even when there are long documented multiple instances of people at the highest levels of healthcare, banking, politics and pharmaceuticals committing evil acts, we never hear any calls from the Ruling Class to forever cancel these institutions in the same manner as they call for the abolition of all religion around the world due to the evil acts carried out by sociopaths that manage to rise to positions of power and authority among religious institutions.At a minimum, this disparate act of applied cancel culture in which only the institution of religion suffers relentless attacks for calls of cancellation, not only by the Ruling Class, but also by those brainwashed by them among the civilian class, despite numerous other institutions yielding “authoritative leaders” that committed similar acts of atrocity, should cause every single one among us to ask the following question:Why is the Ruling Class so hell-bent in creating a world without religion and not a world without other institutions that have been exploited by bad people to produce bad outcomes?I will leave it up to you to research and arrive at the answer to the above question yourself? But I will provide a hint that will help you in your journey by informing you that you should begin your investigation by discovering why the most brutal Communist leaders in history made the abolition of religious practice one of their primary goals to achieve.ConclusionTo conclude, I warn of the Ruling Class’s deplorable definitions of fame, wealth and success above, that have caused Generation Alphas to list social media influencer and YouTuber as their top desired occupational choice, a choice that will certainly contribute to the downfall of civilization for not only the lack of meaning the masses will possess in their daily lives but also for the dearth of doctors, engineers, farmers, physicists and mathematicians such career aspirations will create in future generations. However, equally important, I warn of the Ruling Class’s deplorable definitions of religion and other societal pillars that have been fooling the masses into embracing faulty beliefs that will weaken the percentages of real men and women that will exist in future generations as well.I often have stated that I will never fully trust a man or woman that has not overcome serious struggles in their lives with grace and honor. The Establishment has always taught us the following falsehoods: struggles are bad, always seek comfort over discomfort, strive for unbridled joy at all times in our lives, and that four billion people on this planet that dwell in poverty and struggle economically every day serves as proof that there is no God in this world.  Of course they will argue that all the horrific things that happen to good people prove no God exists in this world because this relieves them of any responsibility for their enforcement of an anti-humanitarian monetary system seeped in iniquity that ensures the deplorable sustainability of massive and growing numbers of the poor, the hungry and the food insecure in our world today. The fractional reserve banking system of Central Banking is the true culprit that perpetuates the plight of the four billion poor today and not a lack of a benign Creator, the “explanation” to which the Ruling Class assigns all ills in the world today. In other words, their mass movement to a secular world without God is designed to forever hide their responsibility for creating the bulk of problems that exist in today’s world, because such an explanation provides them an “out” to explain the world’s iniquities, that all chaos in the world today is just random and no one's creation or fault. However, this still is not the primary reason the Ruling Class desires to create a faithless, secular world today and to discover that, as I stated above, one must research why the most brutal Communist leaders in history placed abolition of religious practice at the top of their “to do” list.And for those that find the relentless quest to overcome struggle inspirational, spoken of by people like Jocko Willink and David Goggins, we should know that such messages have religious origins, even if Willink and Goggins may be unaware of it themselves. Scripture informs us not just to embrace struggle for the beneficial lessons we will learn from conquering struggle, but to rejoice in struggle for the lessons bestowed by struggle that will make us better men and women. Sound familiar to Goggin’s messages? Therefore I find it ironic that those that hate the most on the messages spread by Goggins and Willink are among the most self-serving people on our planet, often called out by Goggins (more so than Willink, who tends to be more diplomatic with his haters) for being voluntarily fat and lazy. Goggins’ haters provide a much needed community of support for the lazy and self-serving to reinforce their self-harming behavior, an outcome adored by the Ruling Class establishment.The blood sucking, soul crushing ruling class establishment has been relentless in their narrative that “being sad is always bad” and that “always being happy is good”, regardless if our happiness is derived from material wealth gained by stepping on the broken bones of the poor and the unfortunate. They feed us this message of iniquity, embraced by millions, though ancient scriptures teach the exact opposite, that the “heart of the wise is in the house of mourning but the heart of fools in the house of mirth”. The lack of understanding of this seemingly oxymoronic message is birthed in the deceptions of the rich on this planet to always glorify self above service to others. The reason I mentioned CJ Stroud in my above podcast is because many people are unaware of CJ Stroud’s backstory, which you can view here. It is an amazing one that I encourage all of you to view, as it is only fifteen minutes.  The  reason I mentioned the mass media’s censorship of CJ Stroud’s message to serve others and not yourself is because awareness of the censorship of all anti-establishment narratives establishes the massive fear the Ruling Class has of others embracing an anti-narcissistic message of service.CJ Stroud underwent immense hardships as a teenager and more bad things happened to him than almost anyone I know, with the exception of Los Angeles gang members with whom I volunteered every week when I lived in Los Angeles. CJ Stroud’s story reinforces the message that there is strength, humility and massive life lessons to be learned from our struggles and that massive light can be birthed from our darkest times of struggle. CJ’s story also brings under scrutiny many billionaires’ immense and obscene gluttonous appetite for material wealth and money without any true service to the poor despite their blessings and these are the reasons why billionaires that control Western mass media, are so focused on censoring any message that differs from their views of “success” and self-worship. They know their definitions of success and self-worship, embraced by hundreds of millions, if not billions, create the ultimate lowest and weakest, and not the highest and best versions, of all men and women, that ultimately enable the human population to be controlled.In fact ancient religious texts tell us we should expect righteous men to perish in their righteousness and wicked men to prosper in their iniquity and that witnessing such unjust and unfair events is not an excuse to pursue the establishment Ruling Class’s definition of success and fame. Since scriptures tell us that periods of struggle and great hardships are necessary to create strong powerful men and women in a world ruled by darkness, think of the type of weak minded men and women that would constitute 100% of our population if no struggle existed in our world. Many people’s arguments against the existence of a higher Being is rooted in their belief that great struggle should not exist in our world if a higher Being actually existed, especially great struggle suffered by good people. However, because struggle is a necessary component to create great men and women worthy of our admiration, then it is also a given that at times, unfortunately wicked men and women will prosper and truly good-hearted men and women will suffer.In conclusion, scriptures are very explicit in warning us that wisdom will be ignored and that the words of wise men will be heard in quiet more than the cry of those that rule among fools.  It doesn’t say that this will happen only in the institution of religion but that this phenomena will rear its ugly head among all institutions. And this is why I always preach that if you follow the loudest, most prominent voices in finance, these voices will always lead you astray and into self-harming decisions. Truth, even in finance and investing, will always be relegated to the quietest realms in a sea of mass media finance voices. How do the loudest voices in finance become the loudest voices? Is it merely by happenstance that the Wolf of Wall Street still commands exposure to millions on mass media financial channels? Or perhaps the Ruling Class serves as the gatekeepers that decide who will rise to be among the top ranking players in finance and on Wall Street that can reach tens of millions with their message because they spread the false messages desired by the Ruling Class. The establishment will always praise and glorify the demagogues in finance and give them the loudest voices among all voices while the voices of the wise will be suppressed. You already know who I believe to be one of these voices, as I posted an interview I conducted with him a few months ago here.

Thank you for reading skwealthacademy by john kim. This post is public so feel free to share it.The topic of today’s podcast, one that to date, will be the most important one I’ve posted on this platform, is “Are You Living Truth or Drowning in a Sea of Deception?” The reason this podcast is so important is the answer to this question has determined whether you’ve made good money in the stock market this year or have lost a ton, have not lost a cent or lost the shirt off your back in cryptos, have had fulfilling relationships this year or the worst in many years, and are at a good point in your career or feeling rudderless and without direction.If the latter negative, and not the former positive parts of the above scenarios apply to you, then it’s time to pause and take some introspection to determine why your life is not proceeding as desired. Often we blame others and external events for things that are not going right in our lives, but ultimately, we should refuse to engage in self-deception and take responsibility for the decisions in our lives that have hopefully enabled us to rise above the white noise and excel in truth or that have perhaps unfortunately kept us mired in quicksand, feeling like Sisyphus for all of our lives, taking one step forward but then always taking two steps back. The difference between living in truth or deception is that periods of struggle are much easier to overcome if we find and reside in the narrow paths of truth that hide from us in our world of deceit.Whether or not others are the cause of us drowning in a sea of deception due to the con games they have executed upon us, in the end, we must always take responsibility for the negative consequences that result from placing our trust in such fraudsters. Even if we have been the victim of their con games, as many fraudsters have become multi-millionaires on the downfall of their gullible followers in recent years, especially in the investment game, the fact that we have failed to easily identify, and thus avoid these fraudsters, lies squarely on us. If we were constantly working every day to live truth, then we would have identified them as fraudsters from the jump despite whatever fake façade of expertise they may have conjured up.I recorded this podcast in the hope that its content helps each one of you realize your deepest truth in every aspect of your life. Though such topics often fail to interest the majority of people, I really hope that everyone that has read this far will not only listen to the full podcast today, but also give a little of yourself to our community here by sharing comments below and providing some wisdom and insight that you have extracted in your journey to truth below.Finally, apologies for not including my thoughts on future BTC price behavior should it breach $20k as I wanted to keep this podcast under an hour. I’ll likely include those thoughts with the next posted article.Have a beautiful day, don’t forget to give gratitude for all that is good in your life despite the occasional struggles, and bless up.J.

As I stated in the above podcast, I noted no less than 6 widely believed falsehoods spread about BTC in the first 24 minutes of the referenced podcast below, about how to get rich from BTC investing. If you can’t identify these 6 falsehoods, then you should not be investing in BTC at all, because had I listened to the full 1hr 41 minutes of the below podcast, consider how many more easily provable BTC lies I likely would have identified? Furthermore, there is no way to properly assess the risk of investing in BTC without being able to spot these 6 easily identifiable BTC lies in the first 24 minutes.Here is the link to the “Everything You Need to Know About Crypto” podcast for those that want to try to spot the 6 falsehoods about BTC spouted in the first 24 minutes.Stop Hoping, Start Investing Besides destroying the mental health and elevating the levels of narcissism among millions of teenagers and adults alike around the word, social media has also destroyed intelligent investing by making hope the #1 investment strategy of retail investors around the world. Unfortunately, hope is not an investment plan, but simply a gimmick, although an extremely effective one, that separates millions of retail investors from their money every single year as charisma, presence and telling investors what they want to hear versus properly explaining pricing mechanisms of various investment assets, and therefore taking a rigorous approach before spending a single euro, dollar, yen, rmb and telling people, and telling them often, what they don’t want to hear is the pathway to investment success. However, the easy way to riches for financial analysts is to be a fraud and constantly just sell people the hopium they want to hear, even if it leads millions to rags instead of riches. I see this pattern over and over and over again not just in the crypto world, but also in the world of commodity and stock investing as well.Here are some additional notes I scribbled that I did not discuss in my podcast:(1)   The reason I 100% know that all BTC analysts that give BTC price predictions on their podcasts and/or newsletters for “________ BTC (fill in the blank with whatever absurd price you’ve repeatedly heard in the past) by ______ (fill in the blank with any date 6-months or more into the future)”, are complete frauds is due to the following: the metrics I have used to nail all three bottoms that have resulted in more than 200% returns and to nail the two peaks that resulted in more than 50% price crashes within the past 18-months (delivered on my patreon platform) cannot be used to assess price movements far into the future, and often for not longer than a two-week time frame at most. By nailing the bottoms and tops, I don’t mean I called the exact tops and bottoms, but only that I issued strong buy and strong sell opinions at specific prices, all within a few thousand dollars of the exact bottoms and tops. For example, this past November, I issued a strong sell opinion on BTC at $66,000 (it eventually rose to $69k before crashing) and reiterated multiple times that upside was very slim and downside risk was tremendous.On the contrary, famous BTC analysts like Dutchman Plan B, stated, the worst case scenario for BTC last year was for BTC to end December 2021 at a price of $135,000. I’m sure thousands of people lost loads of money chasing BTC at its $65,000+ highs in November due to this extremely public announcement of a minimum of a double in the last few weeks of 2021. Another famous BTC analyst, Anthony Pompliano, stated that the BTC price would end 2021 at $100,000. As horrible as these hope-based predictions were, there literally were dozens of additional BTC TikTokers and YouTubers spouting the same, or even worse, nonsense. Thus anytime, you hear a BTC analyst state, “And BTC will be at $100,000 to $500,000 by a (timeline more than two weeks into the future)”, you know they are a complete fraud, which I’m sure a little due diligence into their track record of past BTC price predictions will prove;(2)   The explanation of “BTC has fallen because it is like a tech stock and has mirrored the crash of the NASDAQ index” this year is completely asinine and here’s why. I never looked at the NASDAQ index a single time before I provided my predictions of severe BTC price crashes in April 2021 and November 2021. Furthermore, the fact that the NASDAQ index experienced some stellar trading days higher in recent months when BTC prices continued to fall on these same days proves the comic nature of this explanation. BTC analysts that state the NASDAQ index movements are responsible for BTC’s poor performance this year use that explanation to rationalize their poor predictions, but when the correlation does not hold, such as huge days of divergence in performance, they merely ignore the divergences.(3)   In early June, 40% of all BTC HODLers were reported as being in the red. If further BTC price declines forces selling of some whales, due to momentum selling, this figure could easily climb to 70% by September. This is not a prediction that this will happen, but ignoring this risk and not giving it the proper consideration it deserves is to be expected from the analysts that keep slinging hope as their investment strategy. Not considering all possible outcomes with a proper risk analysis of an asset has led to the death of many a portfolio.(4)   Cathie Wood of ARK investments stated that she would have never invested in Luna because of its asinine algorithmic loop that tied the values of its “volatile” coin TerraUSD to Luna coin (not stable coin TerraUSD, as it was marketed by serial fraudster Kwon Do-hyeung). Ms. Wood stated that having a stablecoin backed by nothing but confidence is stupid and the primary reason why she never would have invested in TerraUSD or Luna coin, basically invalidating her entire thesis for BTC to be priced at $1M in less than eight years. Does she not realize that the entire community of cryptocurrencies, sans a few “hard asset” cryptos, retain their values entirely from confidence, and that a severe drop in confidence in BTC could also cause a Luna like run on BTC prices? Of course, the same could be said of all global fiat currencies in that a loss of confidence in any of them would cause a run in them as well. Historically, global fiat currencies have hyperinflated not just when Central Bankers inflated them into massive inflationary territory, but when people lost all confidence in them (i.e, Venezuelan BVF, the Zimbabwe dollar, the Lebanese pound, etc.)On 3 June, Cathie Wood stated, “It does appear, according to our metrics, that short-term holders have capitulated. That’s very good news in terms of putting in a bottom. Long-term holders are at an all-time high at 65.7%. That means they’ve been holding Bitcoin for at least a year. We’ve got some very strong holders, or HODLers, here. That’s also very good news, although we might see some long-term holder capitulation to mark the bottom.” Given that a year ago, BTC prices were in the low $30k range, and if we go back even further to the end of 2020, when BTC prices were in the low $20k range, it makes sense that those that are still sitting on small losses or significant gains despite all the in-between massive price volatility, are still holding. But…what if BTC prices continue to descend to November 2020 prices again, would all those “long-term” holders still HODL or would they flee in masse, causing even further pain to the downside? Furthermore, the fact that so many that rode BTC prices down to large losses this year finally capitulated cannot be used as a predictor of future behavior that has not yet happened (as of 7 June 2022), such as strong buying at BTC prices in the low $30k range in large volume. So until that happens, predicting behavior that has not yet happened is an exercise of very low utility, in my humble opinion, but the hopium dealer analysts keep people perpetually unnecessarily exposed to risk by convincing people to ignore risk. This keeps the views and subscriptions pouring in as they become enriched at the gullible’s expense.Even if BTC analysts are looking at completely wrong metrics to predict future BTC prices (and from my observations, nearly the entire lot of the most famous analysts are all analyzing the wrong metrics in their attempts to predict future price behavior), when BTC prices dropped 15% last November 2021’s price of $69k to $59k, they should have helped their followers manage risk properly and divest. Why? Because capital preservation is THE key strategy to not only preserving wealth that has been built, but also in building wealth into the future. If you are a patron of mine, you know I harp about capital preservation all the time, and this is the reason why, of the dozens of investment assets I’ve discussed over the past couple years on my platform, the vast majority of them have returned double digit to triple digit returns, and I believe, if memory is serving me correct, not one, of the few investment opportunities I discussed that was closed for a loss based on my selling guidance, was closed at a loss of 15% or greater. Even here on this substack platform, if you’re a new subscriber, review every single investment opportunity I’ve discussed here and you will not find one, for which I’ve given buying and selling opinions, that has lost 15% or more. Analysts that sling hope all the time as their primary investment strategy are complete failures in understanding how to properly assess risk to ensure capital preservation.Just some other points on which to marinate that were in my notes but I did not discuss in the podcast.

Since I knew I had no time to run the live discussion thread this morning as usual, I recorded late last night, Part 1 of a two part podcast about the principles I’ve used to achieve consistent, repetitive enormous yields on investment opportunities discussed here on my substack platform and on my patreon platform as well. Most of the meat on the bone of this discussion will be in Part 2, which I’ll release next week, so stay tuned. Have a blessed and beautiful Friday and weekend everyone.

What do I mean by this? Well, this podcast, whether you’re listening to this on my substack platform or viewing this on my Rokfin platform, literally would not exist without discomfort. Comfort is easy. But no great invention was ever born out of comfort. No great life was ever realized through comfort. Discomfort is where the warriors dwell, and where those of us that want an extraordinary life markedly different from everyone else, dwell.  Because we cannot create an extraordinary life dwelling in the visible spectrum of light, the 0.0035% sliver of the entire EM (electromagnetic) spectrum represented by the light we can see.

Today’s podcast is a continuation of my series of how the Military Industrial Banking (MIB) complex perception management game is played to manipulate and influence commodity prices in the real world. Below are real profits of skwealthacademy patrons that followed my buying and selling guidance for all 27 assets of which we divested earlier this month using knowledge of how the tail wags the dog (all documented on the patreon platform with exact buying and selling price points). I have ommitted the identity of the assets as we will likely repurchase the below group of stocks again (along with some new ones I’ve been tracking for a couple of years), once their prices have significantly corrected.

As promised, here is the accompanying audio podcast as well as a link to the video podcast to my recent article, “The Last Two Years of Covid Lockdowns (and Experimental mRNA Mandates) Have NOT Been About Protecting Our Health.” Only the most naive of people and the most unwilling to learn about real science would think otherwise as some of the most heavily dosed nations (like Israel) have some of the highest infection rates in the world and the nations with the most heavy handed lockdown policies have created the most unhealthy citizens in the world (due to lack of exercise, lack of access to proper nutrition, and lack of exposure to vitamin D).

In today’s exclusive skwealthacademy substack podcast, I discuss the dangerous delusions of many members of the BTC community  when they promoted community support of the enemy, like Goldman Sachs made man Gary Gensler and US Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, as advocates for the bitcoin community. In fact, on my Rokfin channel, I could not have been more explicit in my warnings that believing these two men were net positive for BTC’s future price, as promoted in Reddit threads titled “Gary Gensler is good for bitcoin” was a fool’s undertaking in my published diatribe here many months ago titled “Why the Cryptocommunity’s Trust in the Two Men Will Cause Its Downfall.”Furthermore, I excoriated all BTC analysts that were stating that the release of BTC ETFs would finally bring institutional money pouring into the BTC space, thus multiplying BTC prices in the future, citing these analysts for a complete lack of understanding of how BTC price mechanisms work. To the contrary, I predicted that BTC ETFs would be a terrible development for the BTC community and lead to lower prices in this post, published when the first “BTC ETF” BITO was approved by the BTC community’s darling Gary Gensler, titled, “Everything Wrong with the BTC Narrative” ( forward to the 17:00 mark of the referenced podcast to hear my explanation for why BTC ETFs would cause BTC prices to crater, as has since happened). In that podcast, I mocked BTC analysts that called BITO “the greatest endorsement” of BTC by the US Securities Exchange Commission as an ignorant stance that displayed zero understanding of how markets actually work. I stated that BTC ETFs would lead to lower BTC prices before BTC prices plunged from last November.In fact, all of the predictions I made in these two posts have since come true, and my analysis explained in these two aforementioned podcasts was the reason behind my sell call to my skwealthacademy Benefactor level members of BTC at $66k this past November. In fact, in another post I published on 8 November 2021 when BTC was currently selling at more than $66k I specifically stated that BTC prices were very high risk at that point and that while prices could surge a little higher, I expected a selloff to happen, and I was so confident of my prediction that I titled my post “I Told Everyone This Was Going to Happen (meaning a BTC price selloff), But No One Listened”. In other words, the BTC crash I predicted in that post had not yet happened, and even though I knew it was going to happen, I also predicted that no one (but my Benefactor level patreon members) would listen to me in the BTC community and sell at $66k as I warned should be done in that prediction. This was posted as a premium member only post when first published last November but is is now available to all free subscribers of my Rokfin platform, so if you wish to view it, it is now possible.The biggest mistake investors make is to continuously dismiss analysis that does not fit their inflexible view of an investment.Tomorrow, I will post my opinion of some  2022 BTC price predictions made by “top BTC community analysts” on my Rokfin channel for those that are interested. Analysis is validated or invalidated by outcome, period. Of course, one can be lucky in calling one top, but on my skwealthacademy patreon platform, I called near perfect tops in BTC last March and November, and also called the bottom last July. So to continue to follow the analysis of those most “respected” BTC analysts whose outcomes are always wrong year after year after year is truly foolish. The irony of this statement is that I don’t even consider myself a BTC “expert”, but yet my calls for the past 14 months have performed infinitely better than all the self-proclaimed BTC “experts”, like Michael Saylor et al. When I publish my opinion later today on my Rokfin platform of some 2022 BTC price predictions made by “top BTC analysts” and review their 2021 BTC price predictions versus mine, I will validate the above claim.Please help us combat censorship by bookmarking and visiting/joining my other platforms: All my content is 100% reader supported.

Despite the fact that I’ve been speaking about this subject on my now retired YouTube channels and on my financial news blog for more than two decades, the overwhelming majority of investors to whom I speak today still do not understand the psychological game of banker asset price rigging. Unfortunately, their 100% reliance on technical chart analysis, whether it’s in the crypto game, the commodity game, the stock trading game, or the precious metals game, always leads them right into the psychological traps set for them by the bankers. In today’s podcast, I speak of some traps and behaviors executed by the bankers that I’ve observed repeatedly occur, dozens of times, over the past two decades, that have solidified in my mind the realilty of the banker executed psychological mind games being played in markets. Of course, two ways to make money in the investing game is to buy low, sell high and to  buy high, sell higher. I prefer buy low and sell high because risk management is far easier under the buy low, sell high scenario than under the buy high, sell higher scenario, as many cryptocurrency participants have discovered for the duration of this past year.However, unfortunately in the world of investing, even though nearly all investors would rather buy low, sell high than attempt to buy high, sell higher for the reason I just provided above, almost no one abides by this fundamental rule of investing. Likewise, very few people abide by the corollary to this rule, which is to sell high and buy low. For example, other than my patrons (on the patreon platform) that abided by my selling guidance for Bitcoin this past April at $58,000, my buying guidance only after BTC fell below $30,000 this past July, and my guidance to sell again once BTC surpassed $66,000 early this past November,  I don’t know any BTC owners that abided by the sell high, buy low maxim other than my patrons during that time period. And likewise, again, other than  my patrons, I’m not aware of a flood of people that have purchased any of the commodity stocks I’ve suggested in recent weeks, some of which have just skyrocketed higher by 8% to 17% over the past couple of trading days, due to the highly successful banker psychological games played for the entirety of this year that has destroyed nearly all interests in the group of stocks we recently bought on our patreon platform. Hopefully, today’s podcast will enable investors to understand that the assets most likely to perform well moving forward are almost never discussed on CNBC’s squawk box and are those being ignored and undiscussed.Access more skwealthacademy content through these channels: For investment analysis and tips every week and month (including the identity of nine stocks I suggested buying less than six months ago that yielded on average, about 113% per stock upon my guidance to divest, and that I firmly believe provides such an opportunity for similar returns again at the current time for a window of another day or two), join my patreon platform here (less than 30 spots remain to join my benefactor patron level, after which memberships will close at this level. 2 memberships at the transcendent level have opened up but will close again when these 2 spots are taken).

Continuous rolling covid lockdowns, no matter how great your "why" to live, will eventually weigh on your positive outlook on life, a fact of course of which the immoral lockdown mandating politicians are well aware. Unfortunately, my investigation into how these rolling lockdowns are linked to asset preservation of, and wealth transference to, the wealthiest people in the world, have led to a conclusion that these lockdowns will not end to 2023 at the earliest. So hunker in for another full year of rolling lockdowns (that have nothing to do with protecting our health) in some European nations, most Asian nations (and NZ and Australia), with the blueprint for these rolling lockdowns possibly even attempted in North America as well. There is no limit to the immorality of these politicians (like US State Department employee Derek Chollet and Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne) that openly consort and solicit business with documented genocidal maniacs (like Cambodian PM Hun Sen, former proud commanding officer of the genocidal Khmer Rouge faction) while lectturing us on the necessity to confine ourselves to house arrest in order to be a good member of the “global community”. A discussion of some excerpts from Viktor Frank'ls Man's Search for Meaning ensues.

Due to anti-China NATO war mongering, other facts about possible lab origins of Covid19 outside of China have been completely ignored. The first documented covid19 case ever reported is currently still outside of China, in Lombardy, Italy. Mass media has blacked out all reporting on this, especially since Lombardy also has a bioweaponization BLS-4 lab that may have also been working on bioweaponizing covid viruses. The link to these facts that should be investigated, but never has been, as Lombardy was the other epicenter of the original covid19 breakout in 2019.2.     All evidence still points to a robust likelihood that billionaire oligarchs manufactured covid19 to shut down global economies.3.     Why would oligarchs artificially manufacture a pandemic to deliberately destroy the global economy? To execute the world’s largest wealth transfer under the guise of a “pandemic'“ through their heavy investment in low interest-rate derivative products. Millions of the poorest of the poor that died (i.e., a manufactured billionaire genocide) as a result of lockdowns is simply inconsequential “collateral damage” to the rich.4.     Massive, unusual spike of professional athletes collapsing and dying on the pitch/court after receiving experimental mRNA covid drugs should be headline stories around the world. Instead, this information has been so heavily censored by the mass media that most people are still unaware of this ongoing tragedy.5.     The oligarch’s massive manipulation of statistics is as follows: (a) Tie correlation to causation to fearmonger even though there is zero scientific evidence to support the reporting of people dying with covid as having died from covid; (b) Apply the same delusional interpretation of statistics when it comes to people that have suffered heart attacks, cardiac problems, and temporary or permanent neurological damage after having received experimental covid jabs. Use the premise of correlation to introduce doubt into people’s minds regarding the potential danger of these experimental covid drugs. Confuse and continue to delude the masses about the safety of these drugs and use this propaganda to dismiss any probable and likely direct causal link between the onset of severe side effects and the receipt of the jab.Two quick corrections: (1) In the podcast, I discussed 69 athletes in the month of October 2021 that collapsed, many of whom died, and most after receiving experimental covid drugs. I mistakenly stated that 69 athletes died. As the article I researched, for which you can find the link in the podcast shownotes below, was written in German, after asking a German native for translation, I realized that all listed athletes collapsed, but not all died. (2) The NIH in the UK actually listed a second category of covid deaths as those that died up to SIXTY days, not just 28 days, after a questionable positive covid diagnostic test. Though not prone to conspiracies, I am prone to speculating when something is clearly off. The push to inject all 8 billion of us w/an experimental drug reeks of something more sinister than a desire to reap billions in profits. DARPA/Google employees may have provided the answer, six years ago, to ongoing forced vaxx mandates happening around the world at the current time.Podcast ShownotesMedical Abstract that Documents First Covid19 Case Occurred in Lombardy, Italy, NOT in China, https://bit.ly/326JNCU The Complete List of 69 Athletes that Collapsed this Past October (Many that Died) by Wochenblick German Media, https://bit.ly/3GSA9D7Why Hundreds of Trillions of Low-Rate Interest Derivative Products Dictate that Artificially Engineered Global Covid Lockdowns Will Not End Until 2023 at the EARLIEST, https://bit.ly/3dXclBxEight Questions That Prove Most Supporters of Fascist Forced Experimental Covid Mandates Are Uneducated and Ignorant, https://bit.ly/3p2cTfW (fast forward to the 10m 15s mark to hear these eight questions.)UK Reports Everyone That Dies Within 28 Days of a Questionable, Non Scientifically-Rigorous Positive Infection Test as a “Covid Death” with ZERO Proof a Person Died from Covid, https://bit.ly/3q1lj6lAccess more skwealthacademy content through these channels: For investment analysis and tips every week and month (including the identity of nine stocks I suggested buying less than six months ago that yielded on average, about 113% per stock upon my guidance to divest), join my patreon platform here (less than 33 spots remain to join my benefactor patron level, after which memberships will close at this level.

This interlude contains a brief rundown of this week’s tragic covid-related news that clearly points to something much more sinister afoot than simply a drive for Big Pharma to pocket billions of dollars of profits from a worldwide push to mandate all 8 billion of us receive never ending injections of their unproven (for high levels of efficacy and safety) experimental drugs. The same oligarchs that are shoving unscientific-based lockdown and forced jab mandates down our throats are the same oligarchs that perpetually rig financial markets and could easily make a few billion every week from simple rigging highly leveraged derivative futures markets in a number of different markets including palladium, platinum, oil, gold, silver, rice, soybeans, corn, and yes, even bitcoin. Thus, I’ve been pondering, if the almighty dollar that they worship is not the reason for the perpetual lockdowns and mandatory drug mandates, then what is the end goal of this misery inducing and suffering inflicting game they are playing? Of course I don’t have the answer to this trillion dollar question, but I certainly have an educated guess regarding the answer to this question, and I will release a podcast regarding my speculations about their end game in the coming weeks, so make sure if you’re reading this and have not yet subscribed to this newsletter, that you subscribe today.

Billions of us have gone mental in how we process information today, thinking of ourselves as experts about topics we know little to nothing about in the fields of science, immunology, virology, vaccines, finance and politics. The oligarchs have worked their plan of dumbing people down to scientologists’ level of thinking to great success and made the phrases “I don’t know” and “I’m not sure” taboo in today’s society. Even refutations of this thesis are completely non-intellectual as people today, when confronted with fact-based dissent, merely resort to regurgitation of false narratives and state, “Oh, that’s been fact-checked and debunked”, as if a biased, agenda-driven, billionaire-funded fact checker merely stating something has been debunked, not actual hard facts that have undergone a rigorous analytical process, serves as adequate proof to dismiss a dissenting opinion.Furthermore, quite popular as perhaps the second most common non-intellectual dismissal of actual scientific dissent regarding all covid narratives is the following rebuttal: “Oh, so I have to have a medical degree to have an opinion about _____ (fill in the blank, as the blank could be experimental mRNA drugs, the danger of the Omicron variant, etc.)?” Of course, the answer to this question is, “No.” One does not need to have a medical degree to have an opinion about anything covid, as even many of those with a medical degree are just talking heads for the oligarchs and spout a lot of non-scientific propaganda as well. But if one is going to be furiously and emotionally adamant that one’s view is correct, then one should never  be  so delusional as to dispense an ignorant perspective based upon fantasy and propaganda. Should one be spouting a very heated opinion, at the very least, one should have his or her ducks in a row regarding scientifically proven facts that have undergone rigorous inspection and analysis, and one shouldn’t flippantly dismiss facts with a casual statement of “Oh, that’s been fact checked and debunked” with no further proof of the scientific rigorous process by which the “fact-checker” has debunked an opinion you believe to be false. And for the love of God, if one really has no idea, then simply reply, “I don’t know.” I’ve replied, “I don’t know’ to many things just this month, because guess what? – I really didn’t know the answer to a question someone asked me.Podcast Notes: All video referenced in this podcast, i.e. Northern Territory Australian covid internment camps, etc. is only available on the videos uploaded on my Rokfin platform.

I’ve been writing about the JP Morgan criminal bankers, the “Fraudulent Four”, at least one of whom, John Edmonds, has admitted guilt under oath in court, to smashing gold, silver, platinum and palladium prices lower hundreds of times, and sometimes under direct order of the JP Morgan head of precious metals trading, Michael Nowak, and JP Morgan Chase Managing Director Robert Gottlieb. I’ve been closely following John Edmonds case since the end of 2018, when he was supposed to be sentenced. Mr. Edmonds has since escaped any prison time by having his sentencing hearing delayed indefinitely for the last three years. Today I discuss why none of the “JP Morgan Fraudulent Four”, despite admissions of engagement in criminal behavior that stole hundreds of millions of dollars from gold and silver market participants and enabled JP Morgan executives to earn billions of dollars of illegal profits, will ever spend a single day in prison. I will upload the full video of this audio podcast to my Rokfin platform here within the next 48 hours.Please forward the link to this podcast to anyone you believe may be interested in learning the updated information of the above cases.Support me on my patreon platform:Patreon (for investement tips and analysis every week and month, re: precious metals, cryptos, specific stocks, and commodities such as oil, uranium, rice, soybeans, etc.)Download a factsheet and the curriculum to my upcoming wealth building Academy here.Donate to support my research and publications here:GoFundMePodcast references:8 Unanswered Questions in the Curious Case of JP Morgan Spoofer John EdmondsWhy the Ongoing Case of JP Morgan Gold and Silver Spoofers May Hold the Key to Future PricesJP Morgan Banker Sentenced to 8-Months in Prison for Rigging ForEx MarketsUS Federal Judge Halts Civil Lawsuit Against JP Morgan Precious Metal Price RiggingBanker David Liew Declares Criminal “Spoofing (of Gold and Silver) Was So Commonplace, I Thought It Was Okay”!

Agent Smith: Mrs. Anderson, Have you ever stood and stared at it, marveled at it's beauty, it's genius? Billions of people just living out their lives, oblivious. But I believe that as a species, human beings define their reality through misery and suffering. The perfect world would dream that your primitive cerebrum kept trying to wake up from.Mrs. (Christine) Anderson: Have you ever cowered in thought at the fear that millions of us would revolt against you?Millions around the world still are acting as prisoners, trapped in a mental dystopian breakdown of fear by the oligarchs, that are running the gulags exactly as expected by the oligarchs. MP Christine Anderson is the SOLE MP I’ve heard speak out against the Empire’s march to destroy basic human rights and freedom of humanity.In the full podcast, available tomorrow, just by signing up for a free membership on my Rokfin platform (https://www.rokfin.com/skwealthacademy), I discuss the downfall of intellect in an experience I had over the weekend with a citizen that argued for the necessity of tyranny to stamp out a non-lethal, relatively harmless virus to anyone that has a nutritious diet and healthy lifestyle. I discuss favorite parts of the Way of the Warrior text, the Hagakure, that state how awareness without courage is a completely useless trait in society. And why Mrs. Anderson epitomized awareness with courage this past month in her epic rant against EU tyranny and the covid tyranny imposed across Australia, NZ, and many Asian nations as well. Perhaps, the lost soul that dressed up like the Joker (from Batman) for Halloween and set a Tokyo subway car on fire this past weekend is what awaits humanity if more of us that are aware refuse to exhibit moral courage in ensuring future generations possess freedom and the basic human rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of justice.
