The Harsh Truth About Our Economic Future | John Rubino on the Dollar Crisis, Wealth Gap & More

[@CameronFussner]

It's quite astonishing. We face a financial crisis driven by the greed and irresponsibility of financial institutions. In response, Congress enacts laws to curb their excesses. Yet, these institutions lobby to lift those restrictions, claiming it’s necessary for competitiveness. This cycle inevitably leads to another crisis, and it's a pattern we've been repeating since the Great Depression nearly a century ago.

[@fadhshf]

I completely agree; the rules should apply to all banks, regardless of their size. We rarely see meaningful legislation, and this constant back-and-forth between regulation and deregulation undermines not only the economy but also public trust in banks.

[@hasede-lg9hj]

I believe using an investing advisor isn’t a terrific idea. In the midst of the 2008 financial crisis, I was literally experiencing horrible dreams before I spoke with an advisor. In conclusion, I was able to increase my initial investment from $320k to almost $2.5 million in 2019 with the aid of my advisor, and I later bought my first investment property.

[@lowcostfresh2266]

@@hasede-lg9hj I’ve been exploring advisors lately since the market news hasn’t been very encouraging. Who’s the person helping you?

[@hasede-lg9hj]

There are definitely some experts out there. I’ve tried a few over the years, but I’ve been with Annette Marie Holt for about 2 years, and her performance has consistently impressed me. She’s well-known in her field-definitely worth looking up!

[@leojack9090]

Thank you so much for the suggestion! I really needed this. I found her online and sent her an email. I hope to hear back from her soon.

[@rodgertim2881]

The wealth gap has been growing for years, and inflation isn’t helping. The middle class is shrinking, and it feels like if you don’t have assets, you're just falling further behind.

[@georgeearling905]

But honestly, I think it’s not all doom and gloom. Historically, economies go through cycles, and while this one feels intense, it's not insurmountable

[@LoydJohnson-kp3jv]

It’s important to keep perspective. We’ve gone through economic challenges before think about the financial crisis in 2008. Yes, there are major issues like the dollar losing its value on the global stage and the debt levels in the U.S. being astronomical

[@Sanchyfab]

we also have more tools than ever before to adapt, including more access to financial information and resources

[@V.stones]

True, but what really worries me is the unpredictability of everything. Between the Fed printing money and geopolitical tensions, it feels like the rules are changing faster than we can keep up

[@AliciaCrone]

The truth is, wealth inequality is more glaring now, and if you're not prepared, this could really impact your ability to build wealth in the future

[@tatianastarcic]

I’ve been diligently working, saving and contributing towards financial freedom and early retirement, but the economy so far since the pandemic has eaten away most of my portfolio, what I want to know is this: Do I keep contributing to my portfolio in these unstable markets or do I look into alternative sectors.

[@michaelstrawberry]

Just try to diversify your portfolio to other market sectors, that way your investment is balanced and you don’t get to make so much losses.

[@maiadazz]

My job doesn’t permit me the time to properly analyze my holdings/evaluate stocks myself, so I’ve had a fiduciary actively restructuring my portfolio for the past 7 years now to match the present market condition and that’s how I’ve been able to stay afloat, knowing when to buy and sell…maybe you should do the same.

[@avamadison-r9p]

I’ve been looking to switch to an advisor for a while now. Any help pointing me to who your advisor is?

[@maiadazz]

Finding financial advisors like Sophia Maurine Lanting who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.

[@SusanAlice-o6k]

I just looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an email shortly.

[@SaraNisha1]

For years, I struggled with debt, which made it hard to save and take advantage of compounding through index funds. I know that’s a common experience for many people. After stepping back and really diving into research, I found strategies that fit my situation. It wasn’t an overnight fix, but over time, I saw steady improvements. Now, I’m debt-free, approaching retirement, and on track to hit at least $4 million. Funny enough, I’ve even picked up the habit of binge-watching economic content, something I used to really hate

[@ArnoldScerrets]

That makes sense. I’ve always thought luck plays a huge role in investing. Without it, it’s hard to really succeed, no matter what resources you have.

[@SaraNisha1]

I agree, luck plays a part, especially early on. But I’ve noticed that when results stay consistent, it’s usually due to more than just luck. When I had 300k, I realized that growing it further wasn’t just about timing or chance, but about strategy. That’s when I found Emily Ava Milligan, a fund manager whose approach to balancing risk and growth helped me build on that foundation

[@ArnoldScerrets]

I did a quick search and found her page. I’m curious to learn more. I appreciate that you pointed that out

[@Riggsnic_co]

Honestly, this situation makes me feel uneasy, particularly with the Fed's decision to cut interest rates by 50 bps. It indicates deeper economic concerns, and I'm uncertain about my $130K investment strategy, especially with the possibility of not just a recession but potentially a depression.

[@stevieDon-c3t]

I agree. Even with great opportunities, we should proceed cautiously. Seeking market analysis or advice from certified market strategists is important.

[@Anselfits]

Absolutely, having a solid plan is crucial. My portfolio has doubled since early last year. My financial advisor and I are working towards a seven-figure goal, though it might take until Q3 2024.

[@Crystal__sage-b7k]

Can you share details of your advisor? I want to invest my increased cash flow in stocks and alternative assets to achieve my financial goals.

[@Anselfits]

There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’ Carol Vivian Constable” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.

[@Crystal__sage-b7k]

She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.

[@raymond-i2v]

The continuously changing economic conditions in our society have made it necessary for thousands of people to find additional sources of income. Personally, I am looking at the stock market to fuel my retirement goal of $2m, my concern is the recent market crash.

[@Fred-w7t]

Financial education is what we need right now for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject. Thanks to Stacey Macken, the woman that changed my financial life.

[@SusanMatt-s4w]

Honestly, I'm surprised that this mrs Stacey Macken is mentioned here, came across a testimony about her from one of the beneficiaries on the CNBC news, she seems to be doing extremely well .

[@wilsonrichard440]

That woman has changed my life for good. I attended her investment class couple of weeks and she's the best when it comes for guidance

[@Georgina705]

She understands every beginner's intention and fix you to a trading course that matches your capacity, she knows her stuff! Her advice has been invaluable to my trading journey. Definitely worth giving a shot

[@arktom7335]

I agree with you.I was 35 when I finally educated myself and started taking steps. I went from $176,000 in debt with zero savings or retirement to now, 2 years later, fully debt-free and over $1000,000 net worth. I know that doesn't SOUND like a lot, but I'm incredibly proud of it. Now I'm fast-tracking my wealth building (investing $400,000 annually) and don't owe a dime to anyone. It's a good feeling!

[@benjaminocampo3359]

Stacey Macken guided me through budgeting, highlighting areas where I could optimize spending and increase savings. She also provided insights into smart investments to grow my wealth over time, ensuring financial stability even with the higher income

[@austinbar]

The economic crisis and downturn are all the signs of 2008 market crash 2.0, so my question is do I still save in the US dollar or is it okay to move all emergency and savings to precious metals?

[@jcurdrayeric243]

In light of the ongoing global economic crisis, it is crucial for everyone to prioritize investing in diverse sources of income that are not reliant on the government. This includes exploring opportunities in stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies. Despite the challenging economic situation, it remains a favorable time to consider these investments.

[@rogerwheelers4322]

Gold is often seen as a safe-haven asset that can protect against inflation and economic uncertainty. But like any investment, it carries risks. To determine if gold is the right investment option for you, an investment advisor can help you weigh the potential benefits and risks of investing in gold. They can also help you create a well-diversified portfolio that includes gold as part of a broader investment strategy. An investment advisor can help you decide how much of your portfolio should be allocated to gold and select other investments that can complement your gold holdings.

[@joshbarney114]

Investing in gold is a reliable choice, and I plan to keep buying more to make up for my losses. While silver is also a good investment, my collectibles are not as similar. It's important to have clear investment goals and educate yourself on the type of investment that interests you. I work with a financial consultant regulated by the SEC, and started small, but eventually accumulated over $800,000.

[@FabioOdelega876]

I will like to ask, How did you achieve it? I been trying to stick with index funds. I feel this new interest rates hikes could crash this economy. I'm looking out for a better investing strategy, I have a lump sum that inflation is steady eating up.

[@joshbarney114]

Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Marisa Michelle Litwinsky’’ for about two years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.

[@matturner8]

It's sad how difficult things have become in the present generation. I was wondering how to utilise some money I had. I used some of it for e-commerce business, but that sank. I'm thinking of how to use what's left to invest, but I don't really know which way to go.

[@Johnlarry12]

It's a good idea to seek advice at the moment, unless you're an expert yourself. As someone who runs a service business and sells products on eBay, I can tell you that the economy is struggling and many people are struggling financially.

[@phillogan1]

I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.

[@johnphilip1]

How can I reach this advisers of yours? because I'm seeking for a more effective investment approach on my savings?

[@phillogan1]

[@melindaxbc5605]

Going back to the "real" life of our grandparents' generation is not only practical for our future physical survival but is also important as a means of addressing our deteriorating mental health. We have all become too detached from our fellow man and from what is real and natural in the world, glued to our smart phones as if that is reality while ignoring our friend across the table or the beautiful hummingbird fluttering near our window. What is coming will be brutal, but the silver lining to that dark cloud is that it will also be cleansing. Thank you for this interview. ❤

Some things have skyrocketed in just the last 6 months. An old gal down the street drinks Kroger diet tonic water. She says it helps her leg cramps. Whether true or not I don't know, but here is the deal. She said 6 months ago a 2 liter bottle of Kroger diet tonic water was $1. Then Kroger discontinued the 2 liter bottles and only sold a 1 liter bottle, for $1. Now the 1 liter bottle that was $1 has been raised to $1.50...all within the last 6 months. Kroger is shrinking the size and raising the cost. And if they can, they may reduce the quality of the product to make more $$. It is the American way!

[@larss.1876]

I have previously seen some interviews with Rubino, and I can only be humbled by such a fine and honest person.

[@WW_SHTFF_WW]

If you have some land, do you have fruit and nut trees planted? If you missed your chance last season, you got 6 months before tree planting season. I help someone manage a fruit tree orchard and have some fruit tree experience over the last 17 years. I'm no expert by any means, but I have experience with nearly 50 varieties of fruit trees. You know, even if you got fruit trees...they are not permanent. An orchard is continually losing trees. If you wait to find this out, you will be many years behind from where you could be. If disease or animals don't get your fruit trees, a windstorm may uproot, or lightning may split the tree in two. You have to be proactive and not reactive. In other words, you are never finished with your orchard...you keep planting fruit and nut trees forever and ever...even after you plant the bulk of your orchard and think you are done. There is no time to lose with any of this. Some trees may take a decade to produce meaningfully...and then they die. Some of you may not have the right disposition to grow gardens. But most anyone can grow fruit trees. Once trees are established, they generally don't need watering unless there is a massive drought. The trees find their own water. But we are talking temperate climates, not the Mojave desert. I gave up my garden after 12 years. To do gardens right you need to be a slave to them. I don't like being a slave to them. But I am successful with fruit trees...as long as you do not require perfect fruit that needs spraying and chemicals. That is where I draw the line. If a fruit tree can't produce as-is, with only water, and some fertilizer to start out...then it gets cut down and another tree takes its place. If your fruit trees won't do well unless you have tons of sprays, what will you do in SHTFF when you can't get the sprays? And really, I like organic produce and not eating food loaded with poisons. Try to buy older trees that are more developed. Smallish, bare root trees are the worst to buy if you are in a hurry. You have rust, black knot, borers, rabbits can girdle the trees and deer can get a hard-on for your tree and rub it to death. Squirrels are a massive problem unless you have a large orchard of the same trees that produce at the same time and can feed the squirrels and you. Squirrels can strip your fruit tree of all the fruit before it even ripens! And besides squirrels, their little relative, the chipmunk is a big problem with fruit trees. They live in long burrows and have big families. They can start stripping a peach tree before the peaches are as big as a grape. And they also love the fully ripened fruits...it just does not matter to them. You can trap them & poison them. Whatever you do...get rid of them! To kill squirrels / chipmunks / voles, forget BB guns...get the green rat poison blocks and zip tie a few of them to the trees. They will decimate the squirrel population for that season and scale it back some for the next as well. You can buy small traps that kill chipmunks. You can also put a small chunk of the rat poison near their burrow opening for chipmunks and voles. If you get lucky they will bring the block into their burrow for the family to feast on. Just don't use full blocks, cut it into thirds so the little chipmunk can handle it. If you have animals that may eat the poison, put the poison in the burrow or use a bait station. I like the poison near the opening because I can easily see the eating action. Once the blocks stop being brought into the burrow, you fill the burrow up. If the burrow is dug out again, you repeat the process until it is not dug open again. No pets around here, so this baiting technique is not an issue with me. Anyway, back to the trees... One European Green Gage plum took a decade to produce a meaningful crop...then it got black knot and was done for. After that, the rest of the 7 varieties of plums ALL got black knot and had to be cut down within 2 years. Santa Rosa and Japanese Shiroplum are 2 nice plums to grow. But wet and humid Z6 can cause lots of disease problems with fruit trees and plums are one of them. But, it takes time to find out what works best in your zone. Time you don't have. Same thing with an Empire Apple tree. It took over a decade to produce a decent crop. Wonderful apples, then it got a borer and died. A big, beautiful apple tree suddenly loses all its leaves as well as the crop that was set to grow that season. It is heartbreaking. Some trees are labelled wrong and not the right cultivar. Some fruit trees produce low quality fruit...even though the label shows the most delicious looking fruit. A trend lately with our changing climate is some trees are blooming early, then a frost hits and boom...the entire fruit crop is ruined for that season. If you don't grow enough cherries, the birds will strip one or two cherry trees clean before the cherries can ripen. In other words, you have to plant lots of cherry trees that produce at the same time to feed the birds and yourself. One of the best, reliable and heavy producers with fruit trees are the Asian pear trees. Not all varieties are winners, but Olympic aka Korean Giant is good along with Raja Asian pear - they are 2 of the best. I can say that after 17 years of working with 5 varieties of Asian pears. When planting pears, try to get varieties resistant to fire blight. Depends on the local, but fire blight can be a big problem with pears. Belle of Georgia is a nice white peach. Red Haven is a fantastic yellow peach. Loring is another great peach that ripens after Red Haven. But check the chill hours needed for the peach tree. Some trees only produce crops biennial aka every other year. The way you find that out, many times, is only after a few years of growing. When setting up an orchard you need to plan if you want the crops to come in all at once for making preserves / canning or do you want the fruit crops staggered with early, medium and late harvest varieties. You may need a pollinator tree to produce a crop for certain trees...study it up. Some are self-pollinating, others are not. And you need to see which trees are appropriate pollinators. One tree won't always pollinate another tree if they bloom too far apart. Lots to think about and no time to waste. If you want to produce a crop into early winter / late fall...get a persimmon tree or 3. Jiro, Nakita's Gift, Hachiya and lots of other varieties. But check your zones, some are not very cold hardy. Not much time left...we all have eyes to see what is coming. Plant your fruit and nut trees while you can.

@@peterwilson9327 Do you have a clue that the biggest asset manager in the world i.e., blackrock has an ETF for BTC? Don't be in illusion. Go research first about the BTC blockchain technology. It will take days for you to understand it. You will then realize that BTC blockchain is the truest definition of money or how monetary system should work. If you still feel that its value should be zero, I can bet you should be able to appreciate the technology behind.

Fair observations and all currencies are going to become worthless. Clear your debts and buy useful hard assets. Gold, silver and tools.

If the dollar becomes debased it becomes easier to pay off dollar denominated debt, if your premise were correct you should borrow all you can and buy gold and it becomes easier to payoff debt. In truth nobody knows what is going to happen and this nice fellow is no different. You do realize he has been saying the dollar will collapse for the last twenty years. I think he is right, but it could take a hundred years or more

More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire.

[@hankmarks69]

The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.

[@PatrickLloyd-]

This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.

[@PhilipDunk]

Could you kindly elaborate on the advisor's background and qualifications?

Sharon Ann Meny is the licensed advisor I use and i'm just putting this out here because you asked. You can Just search the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.

Most all of our social and economic problems today are due to the fact that over 40 years of rightwing policies following Nixon and Reagan and basically the Reagan tax cuts for the rich taking the top Marginal income tax rate down from 70% to 28% which allowed the business owners to pocket all the profits the workers produced instead of reinvesting into the company and the workers. After the tax break wages went flat and stopped tracking side by side with productivity and all the profits started being taken by the CEOs whose compensation went from 60x the average workers pay to now 450x +. All the big business men and bankers know that Reagan and the GOP have stolen the American Dream and handed it all over the CEO’s and investment bankers. The elites know exactly what has caused all our problems by their greed is not to be discussed.

The continuously changing economic conditions in our society have made it necessary for people to find additional sources of income. I am a Data Scientist, but currently looking at the stock market to fuel my retirement goal of $10m, my only concern is the recent market crash. Do I stay 100% cash and wait for a bull market, or go ahead to invest anyways?

[@Justinmeyer1000]

buying the dip is actually good investing, although for the majority, their investing solution can be found in specialized expertise

[@carssimplified2195]

Agreed, notwithstanding my rookie knowledge of investing, I have a financial advisor who did the trick in a bit more than 6 months after a lump sum capital of $500k. I've made a fortune so far, and I'm now buying real estates, gold and silver as advised by my FA.

The vast majority of the US Dollar money supply is created by private banks through the fractional reserve system of banking, not by the Federal Reserve.

[@GuzzarAwan]

well who cares that Power of fractional Reserve system is given to them by the Central bank itself by CRR SLR norms. And fed itself is owned by Pvt banks. So ultimately the Citizen of that nation will have to pay the Debt

[@drkarlwoods722]

@@GuzzarAwan Advocates of sound money & the Austrian School, while often concerned with centralization of power in the hands of the state (i.e., the Federal Reserve and government regulators), are less concerned about the centralization of power in private institutions like large banks or corporations. This is inconsistent, as private institutions, when left unchecked, can also wield significant and potentially harmful influence over the economy and public life.

[@jamesgouveia9843]

True, the whole system is a ponzi scheme, if inflation ever stops the whole house of cards collapses. Why do I say its a ponzi? There are not enough dollars in existence to cover the outstanding debt so by definition more money has to be created all the time to cover previous debt.

Interesting discussion. Just remember not every baby boomer could get into housing when rates were low. As a single female in Australia without a male guarantor for a bank loan, I was unable to borrow until 1985, and was very quickly slugged with repayment rates of 17%., very difficult staying sane and alive during that period; in the town where I lived, there was a suicide every week, but that rate never made the news.

The interesting complication in all of this is the fact that global populations are collapsing. Without increasing demand, there can be no growth. Without growth, there can be no lending or investment. Without lending and investing there can be no leverage.

This was not experimentation to take dollar of gold. From this moment on, money can be created in systems just by changing a number in the computer. This is how you take a mortgage. They create a number that costs nothing and you pay it back for the rest of your life... its good to know that.

[@akshatrastogi9063]

One of the most important video I have watched, however I disagree with one point that US will go down to the hole. My reasoning is, when that starts to happen, US has a big big leverage of companies like MSFT, AAPL, Google, TSLA, etc. to pull the trigger of not doing business with any other country. Self sufficiency will become a sought out thing. Any country that can be self sufficient will not be affected but I think, except China, there is no other country which have a company like MSFT or Google or TSLA or AAPL.

So smart, well explained from the global economy to people how to survive. BUT, corporations (actually handful rich guys behind them) rule our system and do everything to put all businesses out. All manufacturing moved to China because they found the way for quick money, most expensive medicals ( producing simple natural remedies is past) , unhealthiest food farming and processing. At the same time corporations through government close small farms all over country. Last they found is the yard gardening produce 7 times more carbon than corporations farms, so that is next to be forbidden etc, etc. John mentioned a great way of living few generations in a place. BUT they found way to pull you out. Super high insurance and property taxes, cost of repairing will probably cost you each month more than $1000. So solution is, go rent a corporation apartment.

The currency will be destroyed by inflation and commodities will become a store of value. But we the people are likely to be coerced into CBDCs to keep us under financial control, so the best option will be independence from this system.
