Bond Bubble Bedlam

[MorpheusWasRight]

buy buy buy silver, still cheap!

[CelticReject]

@MorpheusWasRight Much cheaper now. Glad I didn't follow your advise!

[quadcatfly]

ya but you forgot to mention that US gov has the power of 120 mln sheeple workers to collect taxes from whereas 27K guy would not have this luxury...GOV Debt is a certificate for future labor not repayment of money.

[showem88]

yep, this video is great! keep them coming!

[ThePantherdawg]

next time your shaving fill the sink up with water and put your head in it and drown

[scshitole]

Hi

Could you please use a different mic I am not able to hear you, your voice is too low.

Keep posting its helping everybody..... instead of hearing all the negative stuff going on everywhere you are the one who sounds good.

[pjarosz]

My favorite video!

[SonomaDave1]

What we need here is an Old Testament "Year of Jubilee where all debts are forgiven every 50 or 100 years (I forget which).

[SonomaDave1]

Re ur original comment... DOH! The good part about the jubilee thing (which frankly, I have no idea how it would ever be put into practice) is that for the economic system it takes the steam off. I have never heard anyone discuss this jubilee thing and I only vaguely recall it mentioned in the OT

[SonomaDave1]

Do you have any thoughts on "I Bonds?" Their composite rate is just under 6% but no one that I have spoken with knows anything about them. Usually thats a good sign. Comment?

[fancychance57]

great video.max keiser sayes ben bernankie is printing money and putting it straight into us treasury bonds.

[lorax2013]

Yes, that's an extremely important point. I was considering discussing it at length, but it is hard to prove what exactly the Fed is doing so I just dropped it. The writing is on the wall anyway, regardless of what underhanded methods they may or may not be using to buy up bonds.

[ltsgt1]

I hate to buy gold or foreign currency because I feel that isn't patriotic.

Do you think real estate is an effctive alternative to preserve wealth?

Jimmy Rogers thinks that selling everything and leave the US is the solution. There has to be another way, right?

[lorax2013]

Hi Itsgt1,

I personally don't hold currencies and don't expect any to do well. Yes, if you choose not to buy precious metals, IMO land and even houses in some areas should hold value better than most other options - certainly better than currency or most stocks.

[kensho3]

Itsgt1- Patriotic? to what? The United States, as we picture it, does not exist. We are living in a fascist state, pure and simple. Our government and the federal reserve are CRIMINALS. The most patriotic thing that could happen is that states begin to secede. i appreciate your point but lets create something that is worth being patriotic about. Thomas Jefferson is SPINNING in his grave with this abomination we call a "free" country. Free, nothing! we are slaves, pure and simple.

[Am32007]

lorax great video but why do other nations keep lending money the US. i know we borrowed money from china which is growing lik no other nation on earth are they going to be like the US was back in the 20th century?

[carefulcarpenter]

His wife has stuck with him over the years but he is in risk of loosing his house because he's behind on his payments and missed paying his county taxes now for two years. Do I lend this guy money?

Yes, he creates wealth; and not out of thin air.

[carefulcarpenter]

Analogy:

I own a lumber yard; my brother-in-law has a sawmill; my neighbor owns 200k acres of prime timberland. A carpenter friend has plenty of ambition and talent but has not had much opportunity to do his own projects, so he has seen layoffs almost every year for the past 10. His credit score is lousy because of it and the other contractors in the area have colluded to keep labor down by using illegal workers.

[Confucious2012]

I dont think I analyse a friend when I am about to lend him some money. I would analize a company if I was to lend them money, not a friend!

[kensho3]

start by analyzing how to spell.

[lorax2013]

Please give me a hint - what is misspelled?

[kensho3]

he spelled analyze with an "S" which is ok, I guess, if you're a brit. ;-) I just felt like needling him. ;-)

[rollsthepaul]

It's a good thing, Obama will solve all our problems.HAHA

[rollsthepaul]

My three B's are, Bullshit Baffles Brains

[HomesteadProvocateur]

Interesting analogy you use, but I quite dissargree. Where I live, New Age ideas are the mainstream and humanism is the predominant viewpoint promoted in the liberal public education system, it is quite funny actually, my beliefs are diametrically opposed to the system of belief in which I was raised, not to mention, the prevailing belief in Evolution that is held in place by mainstream educational institutions, of which I was a member for 19 years. But I understand the premise of your analogy.

[blabblab1212]

The year is 2052. Fleas the size of rats are sucking on bats the cats. The world is a pleasant 92 degrees no matter where you live on the planet. The leading nations of the world (what's left of them) have a new foreign policy simply stated as: "I'll suck your cock for a dime bag."

[blabblab1212]

Yes, I would loan money to this guy! But I would want some collateral of value. Hawaii has some prime real estate so I would lend $10 trillion to acquire Hawaii and should he default: Bingo!! Next prime real estate along the Florida and California borders. I would loan $30 trillion for the rights to everyone's land in those states. Default: Bingo! Disney World and Disneyland could be central command. That would add to the already surreal nature of things.

[screenflicker1]

in essence US dollar is going down the tubes. invest your money in other things recommended by this wise man in other videos.

[blabblab1212]

Excellent video! Oversimplification states the facts clearly. No need to muddle things with details.

[NaomiClareNL]

No, I would not loan money.

But the world is damned if it does and damned if it doesn't.

Can't foreclose on a country.... And said country is too big economically to pass a law that makes all those loans null and void and not pay them back. The world might not recover for decades.

IMF style measures won't work either, what with Iraq and Afghanistan.

[FATCACAK]

here's the best solutions i've found for the current mess:

-reinstate the 'glass-steagall act' of 1933 that FDR used to chase the bankers out after the great crash.. it makes it so commercial banks can't engage in speculation..

-let the banks go bankrupt, put them through reorganization. NO MORE POISON BAILOUTS

-2 tier credit system issued by a NATIONALIZED fed bank. high interest loans for speculation. low interest for infrastructure and scientific development..

-new 'bretton woods' deal

[Growby10]

so true. keep up the good work my friend~!

[fatefinger]

US bonds are not even worth investing in anymore. Not the economy but the interest rate is much lower than it used to be. The interest is so poor by the time the values of the bond doubles you'd be dead.

[billybobhobnob101]

and yet they keep giving us money-boy are people going to be pissed when they find out the U.S Ponzi scheme is 1000x the size of Madoff's

[ckekinit]

what you are saying is complete common sense...the only thing I can see is the World ,Market,Gov't, Ect...is completely Manipulated. .Who knows what these Crazy Bastards have planned for us? They like wars.., this may be our Future?

[AntiBullS]

do not F with Uncle Sam he can afford super geniuses they will F u one way or the other without u realizing u have just been F'ed lol

[AntiBullS]

OK I will tell you something .

after they install new currency price of gold will be intentionally set low , they know people have stashed shipload of that stuff hiding from uncle Sam . Gov knows everything my fine feathered friend .And once Euro and BP start crashing u will see what will happen to RE . LOL

[carefulcarpenter]

I might be smart to hire this guy to produce some wealth. If I keep lending to him without helping him to create something of value, then of course I, and this guy, are in a loosing situation. Now, on the other hand, if I have money and he has talent, then a win-win deal would be to the benefit of a better world.

"Opportunity, not charity"

~~carefulcarpenter

[AntiBullS]

buy RE while u still can . I just picked up property which was selling for 100K for 5 K and even if I pay taxes of 200 for 100 years ( xoxoxo ,Merry Christmas ) my bottom line still will be 5 times less than the guy who paid 100K hahahaha u mental midgets buy RE not gold

[sanchopanza123]

mental midgets...time will tell.

[AntiBullS]

hahaha

difference between u and me that you play lulu game I do not , no offense

[sanchopanza123]

non taken. by the way i play no games.but u have ur opinions and that is where it ends, an opinion, not a fact.

[AntiBullS]

Elite thinks of u as a slave ,slaves are not supposed to have wealth . They know how majority behaves .Know know u better than u know yourself . They have no interest to help u preserve your wealth .

you think gold is going to have significant value once new currency be established ? They do not think so , believe me .

[jsphbjmn]

If not gold then where do you put your money to keep your wealth?

[AntiBullS]

it all depends how wealthy you are . You must be diversified . At the moment it is definably not cash If $ crashes all currencies will crash . RE definitely is better choice at the moment . Much better.U can get awesome deals now . Can not do it with gold , try to buy gold below market .physical gold is like 40-60% mark up .

[DontTread0nMe1776]

Silver is still more favorable than gold in my book with its 74:1 ratio, this was historically 15:1 but with the supply and demand fundamentals and all the uses silver has in industry I think it could do much better.

[sanchopanza123]

wow I didnt know that antibull thanks for enlightening us! when is ur next book getting published!

[AntiBullS]

by 2010 it is going to be 4 trillion :) good luck to USA They can not even raise taxes because they will push millions to welfare line or jail which will place additional strain on US taxpayers

 hahaha game is over, boys u r screwed .

[jfcrow1]

No!

[mrzack888]

yes i will loan money to this guy. because i'm chinese.

[jsphbjmn]

Dont forget about the interest owed on the monies borrowed
