"I Believe..."
Self-admitted 'crazy-guy-at-every-cocktail-party', Santiago Capital's Brent Johnson believes there is something really wrong in the world today. But as he notes as an introduction to his presentation, "while I am not naive to the way the world works, I at least want to try to make it better." Rather than tell us what we should do, he tells us what he believes in the hope that just maybe, we may believe in many of the same things... for instance, that despite the S&P 500 returning to its all-time highs, the real economy has not recovered; that holding interest rates at less than 1% for 5 years is an indicator of a recession if not a depression and that the fact that that middle class jobs have not returned is indicative of an economy in trouble. This brief but full presentation is a litany of all that is wrong today - see how many of his 'beliefs' you agree with...
"I believe..."
- S&P is at highs but the real economy has not recovered
- Rates at 0% is indicative of a recession or maybe a depression
- middle class jobs have not returned signals an economy in trouble
- and that these the three put together is a major problem
"I believe..."
- it is impossible to borrow your way out of debt...
- or spend your way to prosperity
- our representatives in Washington do not think the rules of mathematics do not apply to them
- very few people understand the power of the exponential curve
- and recognizing it when its right in front of you (national debt)
- that this system puts our kids in jeopardy (owing $350,000 at the age of 4)
- most people think these problems are so far off in the future that it is senseless to worry about them now
- they are wrong
"I believe..."
- See Something, Say Something should be applied to our government - we should tell our neighbors what our government is doing
"I believe..."
- Nikita Kruschev had at least one thing right, politicians are the same all over, "they promise to build a bridge even where there is no river."
"I believe..."
- Leadership starts at the top (and drops off fast from there) - and you gotta call them on their bullshit (Bush abandoning free-markets to save free markets & Obama 'stopping these ridiculous wars' and still fighting them 5 years late)
"I believe..."
- It is wrong that the Attorney General openly admits that large banks are 'too big to jail'
"I believe.."
- It's wrong when guys in suits and ties get off easy (Cassano, Corzine, Mozilo), yet organic farmers and young entrepreneurs have their business closed down and lives ruined - so the Justice Department can send a message that noone is above the law.
"I believe..."
- The greatest trick the world's central bankers ever pulled was convicing you they were on your side.
- They are not.
"I believe..."
- That Cyprus will not be able to live up to the terms of the latest bailout, and
- It won't be long before the ECB comes back for round 2
"I believe..."
- Once the confidence in fiat currency is gone, its over...
"I believe..."
- It's still a beautiful world, and that
- Most people want the same things in life, to be left alone to make their own decisions and live life the way they see fit
and one last thing
"I believe..."
- It is better to deserve honors and not have them, than to have honors and not deserve them...

I believe the day will come, when people decide they've had enough.....and banksters and politicians will have nowhere to hide.
Remember, ye boys and girls on the hill: "I was doing my job and following orders" was not a valid defense at Nuremberg, and it probably won't work for you either.
Krugman's 'Nobel' - worth noting that the Nobel in economics is NOT really a Nobel prize, it is not recognized by the Nobel family and was added much later (1901 vs. 1969) than the others.
Brent is a ZHer at heart.
I don't know if he knows it yet.
It's not about branding, ZHer or not, one should understand the idea that creation of money can go simultaneosuly with the destruction of capital. Majority is thinking that money is capital and that's at the heart of the current confusion. People blame capitalism, which is long gone, for the ills of fraudulent, in essense, money creation mechanism. Money creation and capital formation, which normally would go hand in hand are divorced and have been for quite some time and only few can recognize that. What follows is the pain with no gain, pure sunk cost to human capital. Children are heavily indebted even before born, grandchildren are into even bigger mess and masses screaming and chanting for the saviour. There won't be a saviour, whoever comes with that intention will save a few at the expense of many. Better be ready for that as well as the question from one of the kids: "What the hell you were looking at while it was right before your eyes?".

it's fake like George Costanza "human fund" - "Money for People"
"Believe it or not, George isn’t at home.
Please leave a message at the beep.
I must be out, or I’d pick up the phone.
Where could I be?
Believe it or not, I’m not home"
I've been burshing up on my Seinfeld quotes lately- especially George Costanza. They just seem so appropriate to so many situations these days. My favorite and probably the best one to ever use in political or economic discussions:
"It's not a lie if YOU believe it."
When I read half the shit on here I keep going back to this Kramer scene

The Nobel Peace Prize is a joke anymore... just look at some of the awardees in the last 20 years.
And the most outrageous Peace Prize winner by far... The drone assassin himself - Obama!
To be fair, obummer was awarded the peace prize before he sent any drones up...or did anything else for that matter.

Well, if that ain't QED, I don't know what is.
That'd be Kissinger
No way . How about Henry Kissinger ? His bodycount is unmathcable . OK, Barry has a chance to nuke Iran - but even that would't be enough .
Also worth noting is that economics is a "social science" like psychology or communications.
Economists rely on fancy terminology, mathematics and "nobel prizes" to try and convince the general populace that they are not completely full of shit.
Any indicator of authority or intellectual expertise unspoiled by greed has forever been removed from the 21 st century and we are in a fight to the death with an oligarchy that has captured the entire economic_political_social system that determines all our fates as well as your childrens and their chidren
there is no authority left to guide you to the truth but you know what must be done
"Leadership starts at the top."
Reminds me of what the Dean of the local MBA school told me at dinner one time:
"Fraud starts at the top and flows down hill."
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Banks wrote off $3 billion of student loan debt in the first two months of 2013, up more than 36 percent from the year-ago period, as many graduates remain jobless, underemployed or cash-strapped in a slow U.S. economic recovery, an Equifax study showed.
http://news.yahoo.com/student-loan-write-offs-hit-3-billion-1st-22484503...
"They" might have written it off, but you can bet that the ultimate debt owed by those students has been significantly increased at the subsidiaries of those very same criminal fuck fascist corporations. Bet on it! What a fucking scam. What a fucking country. This place called the U.S. is the "pinnacle" of Man's dark side. Just a land mass infested by psychopathic murderers and their cheeto snorting, big gulp inhaling, MePhone addicted consumer victims. Sieg Heil! To the ovens with you and you and--wait! Where are the pliers? This peasant has a gold tooth. Here Sir Dimon. Would you like the pleasure of taking the tooth while she is not quite dead? The squels of unendurable pain are almost orgasmic--or, at least, that's what Blankfeind said.
Probably make good cufflinks.
Keep an eye out for that at the next Congressional hearing
That's not fair, there is a low-income, minimum wage or temporary job available somewhere.
A whole 3 billion in two months? Ask uncle Benny for some loose change

One "belief" covers all these and simplifies things immensely. Only it's not a belief it's a fact. Well 2 of them really.
1. I believe the world is run by a cartel of Private central banking families at least 50% "jewish", who started all the wars and created all this slavery.
2. I believe there is no such thing as debt Since the forementioned wankers I mean bankers produce nothing but fake money from thin air, so don't even talk to me about a "budget deficit".
They only have to bribe a few to bury the many

I believe Cyprus bank is game changer, that is bank is no longer giving a shit about its customers. And more, bank openly run that way.
I believe Washington and Wall Street are in bed and nobody will ever be able to run for president from outside.
I believe there are only haves and havenots. If you are not the haves, you are probably fucked forever.
I believe those banks will not reopen. They're all pushed back to a Thursday reopen- for fear there will be a bank run (surprised ZH didn't have an article on that yet). Like adding days to the wait is going to make that outcome LESS likely?
Their "customers" (victims) are probably going to say "Ya know, you can keep the toaster, I just want my money back. On second thought, give me my money back AND the toaster..... and this pen with the chain on it..... and all these deposit slips because you're sure as hell not going to need them any more. See ya."

"our representatives in Washington do not think the rules of mathematics do not apply to them"
I believe... that there are one too many "nots" unless..... he thinks they understand the mathematics behind their actions, thus effectively making him a conspiracy theorist like the rest of us here. In that case, welcome to the party pal.
Here's a test. Show your one year old a flash card with the amount $350,000 on it. If his first words later turn out to be "Fuck you, I'm not paying it", and he or she flips you the bird, there's still hope.

I believe it's time to lock and load. Enough of the BS talk and endless chatter, it's time to take out country back.

Meh, pull your cash, become self sufficient, sit back and watch it crumble down around their necks...
That's rebellion. That's the way to go. You need not do anything but cease to participate in the scam for the scam to end.
Rebellion is more effective in the long term than revolution. There is a difference.
Your right, as we have had revolutions before. Yet here we are. I do believe it is called a revolution for a reason. Revolution denotes cyclical movement, a return to a fixed point. Evolution on the other hand...
Revolutions are by nature, violent. In order to lead a revolution you must be unconscionably violent. The end result is that you just replace one violent despot with another. In the end, you are still ruled by a violent despot.
Rebellion, on the other hand, is a mass of people who refuse to play ball. Enough people refuse to play ball...game over.
The problem is that rebellion requires an educated mass, which we do not have, as opposed to revolution which requires only angry mob, which is easy to find.
Lead by example. Don't play ball.
When buying 1 oz. gold coins... I see there are different prices for different coins (Kruggerands, Maple Leafs, Eagles, etc.). I don't see why a 1 oz solid gold coin would be worth more than another one. Can someone explain why?
I'm just interested in some gold and silver coins as a store of wealth, just in case the infrastructure shuts down and I need some way to purchase clean water and food. If that is my purpose I think I would want to just buy the cheapest 1 oz coin and get the biggest bang for my buck. Am I missing anything?
It's illusion. When push comes to shove, one ounce of gold or silver is one ounce. I refuse to pay a premium for a more "fashionable" stamp on my silver. The only stamp that matters is ".999 Fine Silver". Anything beyond that is just fashion and contradictory to the purpose of the purchase.
Others may see it differently. That's just my .02...
do a google, you will find millions of sites to help you
start with this one maybe:
http://www.usagold.com/productspage.html
alfbell ...Its pretty much a majority preference. Eagles favored then Kruggs then Maples. I prefer Maples for their 999 purity . JMO
Anyone else here ...
Gold Maples and their less costly, as beautiful, Silver Sisters, are .9999 pure.
There are reasons that we may not quite understand. There are customs regulations about pure bullion coins and their crossborder transfer without taxation, There is the fact that some have a declared value on them which may mean that they can be confiscated and you get the stamped value, There is the kruggerrand that has no value stamped and so on.
I still have some of my maples and Krug's recovered from that boating accident in that Zerohedge sponsored cruise.
I still think that 22K gold wire is the best way to preserve wealth and be low key about it. I want to refer you to one of my ZH posts from 2009 or so.
While I was traveling in the Sinai dessert, (circa 1977) I stopped at a town to buy gold jewelry. A Bedouin family traveling with Camels was buying 22K gold wire. (Semi-circle profile 1.4? wide.) At the end of the bargaining, the store owner cut the wire into several 6-7 inches long pieces and crudely created bracelets. The Bedouin wife dressed in long black garb lifted her long sleeves and slipped the bracelets into her arms. To my amazement it looked like she had bracelets going al the way up to her underarms.
The owner explained to me later that they were traveling between Egypt, Israel, Gaza, Jordan and other countries. No trust in paper money and counterfeit bills. Any time they make money on trading, they buy more gold wire, anytime they need money, they go to the gold market of whichever country they are in and sell bracelets.
http://www.zerohedge.com/article/local-gold-inventories-depleted-panicking-german-dealers-stage-run-krugerrands
scroll down hald way or so
I like the 9999 quality of the Au maple for the simple reason it can be converted to jewelry or whatever, and still pass the acid test as pure. Just in case bullion or bullion coins are ever made illegal, mind you. Could be hammered down into something as simple as gold leaf for a post card, buttons or any form of adornment.
And they will still be in perfect condition if I ever get out to the lake on the wildlife refuge and manage to find them again.
If in US, think about pre65 dimes, quarters, and halves too. Usually lower premiums for what is called junk silver.
They are 90% silver and a dime is worth over 2.00 bux, a convenient small exchangeable amount of silver. Bullion coins like kruges, philharmonics, eagles have higher premiums associated with them . At end of day he with most oz smiles most.
Look at www.coinflation.com
Although that was true in the past, there is no longer a material difference in premium between junk and maples. For example, both have a $1.99 premium at Tulving. I noticed this about six weeks ago. YMMV
Beware that some coins have "numismatic value", meaning they are sought as collector's items for their rareity, just like antiques. Avoid those collectible coins as you will pay a premium beyond their metal value. You are not looking for collectibles.
It is my experience that the first purchase is the hardest. Take $30 and go buy a silver dollar tomorrow. Worry not about getting the very best deal on your first purchase. Get over the stimatism of buying "real money". Meet your local dealers, or find dealers on-line whom you can trust. In future purchases you will learn better who you like to deal with, and who has the smallest mark-up. As an example, one dealer I know charges $3.00 per one-ounce coin above the "spot price" for silver. You can find the spot price widely publicized on the Internet. You might find dealers who charges less or more.
Good luck!
Alf,
Gold Eagles and Krugerrands are 91.6% gold content. But they still have 1 full ounce of gold content so are actually more than one troy ounce in total weight to make up the difference. To these they have added copper, etc., to make the metal harder and more durable to hold up better. These do not have the gold % content stamped on them but are well known and easily recognizeable.
True bullion coins: Canadian Maples, American Buffalos, Australian Mint coins, and Austrian Philharmonics are 99.99% gold; Chinese Pandas are 99.5% pure. These are all softer bullion coins, hence were not made to be clanked around. These do have the gold % stamped on them.
Prices and premiums vary slightly because of desireability and cool factor of true bullion 99.99% gold coins vs non bullion coin. I believe good delivery 'bullion' is considered >99.5% gold content, but all of the coins have 1 ounce of gold.
Silver coins might work better for barter and everyday use. End of day, easily recognizeable and well known coins are best for emergency purposes so they are not questioned, hence cheaper gold Krugerrands are fine.
And get some LIFESTRAWs for clean drinking water and you will have water wherever you go and don't have to worry. Search internet, specialty outdoor stores.
As others have noted, there's differences in alloys, what % gold is in the coin, etc. This is a factor in how the coins wear.
The main differences in prices basically come down to the premiums demanded over and above the cost of the gold, and those premiums are driven by if the coin is numismatic (i.e. has collector value) and some other factors. Eagles, for example, often have among the highest premium, but they (and a few other coins) enjoy some special status with respect to taxation and reportability (for now at least.) When you sell the coin back to the dealer (shame on you!) certain coins (Eagles, Aussie kangaroos and Austrian philharmonics, I think) don't trigger any reporting, e.g. a 1099B.
There's also variation on premiums based on the date the coin was minted, which for basic gold eagles is just ridiculous, but it's there nonetheless.
Part of the reason premiums are higher is also recognizability. I've always heard that it's best to buy the coins most likely to be from the region you're buying (so eagles, in the US, maple leafs if you're in canada, etc) as they'll be recognized.
"...just in case the infrastructure shuts down and I need some way to purchase clean water and food."
Alfbell, I think it's best to secure a method of supplying yourself with food and clean water (and other needs) before buying PMs hoping to buy your way through what's coming. A can of beans or bottle of water may consume your entire stack of PMs.
I believe the utility in PMs lies in their ability to transfer wealth through what lies ahead, but you must be alive to get to the other side. JMHO.
"In the acausal world, scientists are helpless. Their predictions become postdictions. Their equations become justifications, their logic, Illogic. Scientists turn reckless and mutter like gamblers who cannot stop betting. Scientists are buffoons, not because they are rational but because the cosmos is irrational. Or perhaps it is not because the cosmos is irrational but because they are rational. Who can say which, in an acausal world?"
"Most people have learned how to live in the moment. The argument goes that if the past has uncertain effect on the present, there is no need to dwell on the past.

I throw out some breadcrumbs here and there though social media for those who may be looking to connect the dots, but other then that I just allow people to exist as they were. The beauty is that the Truth always come out in the end :)
I have found in the very recent past that more people are becoming aware. Diners in a random restaurant, shoppers and workers in a low income supermarket, waitstaff from foreign countries. People are learning and maybe they just haven't gotten to the point of putting their finger on it but they are searching and the more people that are awake the more the message is refined and the source becomes clear. I find that older people are the most reluctant to see reality or consider the problems; even if they've been burned a thousand times they still return to their abusers.
I believe a word is missing from picture..
We are on your BACKside
I believe terrorism whether it is financial or political.is terrorism. That's what I believe

The Nobel prizes have become a joke ... of someone wins one these days thnen it is certain they did not deserve it. Krigman for economics? Obummer for peace. Give me a break. It discredits everyone who has ever one! Sadley, even the ones who were not given theirs through a flawed political process and may have actually deserved one.
Don't forget Henry Kissinger for Peace ? LMFAO. I guess they didn't have a prize for napalm, agent orange, carpet bombing and genocide ?
Ghandi, my hero.
Ghandi -> Gandhi .
I believe ... Barack Obama, Tim Geithner, Ben Bernanke, Hank Paulson, Jamie Dimon and their ilk are criminals. They deserve the Ceausescu / Saddam Hussein / Muammar Gaddafi treatment. At best ...
Ok, thanks. So the way to go is... the cheapest 1 oz gold coins (don't pay a premium for "prettiness"); and some junk silver in dimes, quarters and halves, which would be very conducive to making purchases (such as food and water) and save me from having to break and get change for a 1oz gold coin (it would be difficult and problematic having a gold coin worth $3,000 when I only want to buy $50 of food). Do I have this right gold and silver stackers?
Yes you have it right. Start stacking.
