Vigilance During The Crypto Winter

Remember BITCONNECT and 2017? Lots of free flowing money, YouTube pumping it, and the easiest way to make money in cryptocurrency. It was bizarre. The promotional trips and all of the weird characters that were promoting that PONZI SCHEME.

These days there are even more crypto bandits out here five years later. Without speaking of the obvious FTX debacle, stay aware of fake websites that promise huge returns.

Putting your fiat currency into a "trading platform" and hoping on receiving a return is pure Russian roulette. I got burned with a bitcoin mining operation as well. Luckily, I only last in the hundreds. The lesson was learned.

Take a look at the below photos and use the comments section to tell me if you see any red flags. There are many but the obvious reaches out very sharply.

Silver Bullion Premiums Remain Elevated

I started my journey of stacking silver roughly 3 years ago. When I first started out with this hobby it was fairly inexpensive. No matter how low the price of bullion was I was very happy with premiums. American Silver Eagles were my first and only choice. I watched a few YouTube videos that had online shops.
I initially used APMEX. And after my bug was satiated I started looking around at other sites and found that the "premiums" (which is the additional fee over the posted SPOT price) which were about $8 at the time. I was set to grab 5-10 American Silver Eagles at a time for those prices.
Three years later and wow! After the COVID19 came around scarcity ensued and premiums lifted off over $12 per Silver Eagle. I was devastated. Now I can't find the prized bullion coins with premiums less than $18 for American Silver Eagles. The price per coin literally doubled.
Are you seeking other inflation hedging hard assets? If so, what have you come across?

Who Comes To America's Aid

 Today I read that the outgoing Congress of the United States is contemplating a huge boondoggle for Ukraine. Understand that Ukraine is a country with zero interest in taking care of the United States. Why are Democrat politicians looking to send this corrupt country a $1,000,000,000,000 gift of taxpayer funds? This country that birders Russia is not a state of the union. 

The United States is already in a shitload of trouble when it comes to the economy. But now we should finance the rebuilding of a country like Ukraine? I think this is a terrible idea and unwanted burden to place upon the United States taxpayer.

This can only be seen by me as hush money. Remember, the Biden crime family could care less about American issues. Homelessness, poverty, and crime, are a small sample of some of the issues that this money could be used for within your own borders. We have to take care of home before seeking to funnel money into a country that has no means for repaying us for all of this extortion money.

I'm making it my business like Jeremiah Babe in the below video to seek out others that need assistance. If we as citizens can't start to take care of the common everyday man here in America, we are lost as a society. Do anything that your can. No matter how small you may think it is. Your politicians in Washington D.C. could care less about you.
