    Don’t Buy What the Stock Market Is Selling

    Most people, I believe, are oblivious to how the stock market works. I know I was for most of my life, and I still am clueless about the nitty gritty of it. But, I now understand that the Stock Market is NOT reflective of our economy despite what we are being led to believe by the mainstream media. I imagine most people think (as I had for most of my life) that if the Stock Market is doing well, then our economy must be doing well. And if the Stock Market crashes, then that means our economy is toast. However, in recent years, I have come to learn that is…

    Banks Are In Trouble

    Here is the latest video from Gregory Mannarino, who I believe is a voice crying in the wilderness calling on people to “unbank themselves” because the banks are in severe trouble — still. He is continually warning people about the financial trouble we are in — not just our US economy, but the world’s economy. It is serious. I believe it is wise for all of us to acknowledge the truth, align ourselves with it (in other words stand under it, which is what it means to “understand” something) and adjust our behavior to reflect what we’ve come to know & understand. I hate the thought of anyone having their…

    The Great Taking

    Yesterday I came across a book that was published earlier this year called, The Great Taking by David Rogers Webb. (It’s available for free online as a .pdf. And there’s a documentary available to watch addressing some of what’s covered in the book.) I read it all in one sitting and found the information very enlightening. (I also appreciated learning more about the author’s backstory, found in the prologue of the book.) The opening paragraph of the first chapter states: What is this book about? It is about the taking of collateral, all of it,the end game of this globally synchronous debt accumulation supercycle. This is being executed by long-planned,…

    Save Yourself & Potentially Others

    We have to develop a way out for people — a way for people to live outside the System — to live and not need the Banksters’ money to do so. And it starts with having our own way to live without the need for their money. Exit & Build Unbank yourself and pull out of their System. Prepare for the halting of society when either banks close or the banking system locks up. Because the time is coming when you will no longer be able to use your credit cards, debit cards & checks, and savings held in those institutions have the potential to go “poof” (disappear) overnight. (“FDIC-insured”…

    It’s All About Money & Control

    Our economy is in severe trouble, and has been for a very long time, despite what the MSM would have us believe. And this new war in Israel is another ploy to keep the economic system going longer. While the MSM claims the attack on Israel this past weekend was an “intelligence failure”, the stock & debt market activity that took place on the Friday before tells a different story. Apparently, somebody knew something like this was going to happen. Given what I’ve been watching on the financial front for the past 3-1/2 years, it is clear to me that this Israeli situation is a FALSE FLAG event. And given…

    The Locking Up of the System

    I often use the term “System” to refer to the mainstream way of doing things in our country, and I believe the backbone of that System is the Economic system with money being its lifeblood — not “cash”, but rather “money”, which is comprised of fiat currency, both in paper & coinage form and in digital form. This is what makes the System-at-large operate. Well, the writing is on the wall, and it has been for quite some time. The System is on the cusp of locking up…again. And it’s going to be devastating. PLEASE, do something to safeguard yourself as best as possible. Subscribe to Keeping It Real If you’d…

    A Quiet Revolution

    Let’s face it. [Keeping It Real] Most of us were raised in an environment where our housing, utilities, food, energy, transportation, healthcare & communications were all provided for us in exchange for money. Very few of us, I think, inherited our housing. (I didn’t.) We more than likely had to acquire it with money. And then we all have to keep paying money to keep it. While some have their own well water & septic systems, most rely on municipalities for these services in exchange for money. And most buy the majority of their food and pay for electricity and/or gas/oil to power & heat their homes. And this is…

    The System Is Headed for Disaster

    Inflation is going to continue to rise. Job layoffs are going to continue to happen. Small businesses are going to continue to close. Bills are going to continue to pile up. And at some point, the whole banking/monetary system is going to come to a screeching halt. And when it does, it will be catastrophic. If you don’t believe me, investigate the matter for yourself. But understand: the mainstream media lies and so do the politicians and the central banksters. Please read Gregory Mannarino’s article, The Global Debt Market Time Bomb Is Close to Going Off. If you don’t understand how our banking/monetary system actually works, ordinarily I would recommend reading The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin and watching The Corbett…

    A Man with a Guitar & a Message

    Have you seen/heard the red-bearded man singing his song, Rich Men North of Richmond yet? He goes by the name Oliver Anthony online, but his real name is Chris, and he lives in Farmville, VA. He’s not a professional musician, he’s just a man with a guitar and a message. If you haven’t watched & listened to it yet, please do so now. [WARNING: Contains foul language.] (Feel free to listen to it again…and again.) What do you think? I’d love to hear your thoughts. Here’s mine…

    Independence Day? Land of the Free?

    Hardly. It never was free. Everyone is too busy serving their money god from Kindergarten to grave. Dog eat dog. Climb the ladder. More money more money more money. Vote for freedom. Wait for Jesus to fix it. Work for the banker’s currency so they can have their infinite hot checks to write. Give me a break. I am just tired of it.
