Anarcapulco 2018 has officially ended and it was the best yet. We had over 1,700 people in attendance (4 times bigger than last year) and was sold out weeks before the event. Next year is scheduled to have over 4,000 people.

This is a celebration of freedom, liberty, and living life as you choose to live without harming others.

Here are some pictures of the event I wanted to share with you, my fellow Steemians. It was good to see so many Steemians there. I also had the chance to tell people about my upcoming Fund Your Freedom online course that will go into detail on how to use Steemit to earn money from making content. You can find out more about that at:

Here are some pix I got at the event as Master of Ceremonies. You'll see several pix of me and our speakers as I briefed them in the green room before they went out to speak.

I look forward to your feedback and comments.

Tim Moen, the President of the Libertarian Party of Canada. He is an EMT and a fireman from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Very smart man and very kind.

Former Congressman, Dr. Ron Paul, addressing the packed room of admirers. I was honored to be able to introduce him. After his planned speech, as he was walking off the stage, I asked him if he wanted to do any Q&A since he had some time left over. He had told me previously he would like to do that. He quickly turned around and I helped to get things moving for Q&A. We have a delightful time answering questions. He and I were joking with each other a lot as he helped many with their questions. What a wonderful man Ron Paul is!

Here's Gina Carr, who helped with time-keeping, keeping a close eye on Ron Paul and what he is saying!

It was an honor for me to meet Former Congresswoman Dr. Cynthia McKinney from Georgia as she presented with Adam Kokesh. The political spectrum is changing as people embrace more freedom and liberty. It was absolutely wonderful for me to meet Dr. McKinney and get to know this wonderful lady. Adam Kokesh is a strong supporter of freedom and his run for "Non-President" is most interesting! I wish him lots of success in his campaign.

Here's Doug Scribner, the Crypto Entrepreneur. He is holding the (rather large) picture of himself that accompanied the story written about him in a recent Wall Street Journal article. Great ideas on using cryptocurrencies to be an international entrepreneur.

Here's David Morgan, a genius when it comes to investing in precious metals. He is advocating cryptocurrencies now as well.

Chuck Williams told us about Dash, Digital Cash (Dash.org) and what is coming in the future. This is an exciting cryptocurrency that is strong and getting stronger all the time.

Mike Maloney is a genius when it comes to investing. He has a solid knowledge of economics, finance and what investments work. I had heard about him before and it was an honor for me to get to know him and learn from him. He thrilled the audience at Anarcapulco 2018.

Okay, these two pix were not really part of Anarcapulco 2018, but they kind of were. This is Nathan Freeman, Chief Cat Herder for Anarcapulco 2018, and his wife Lisa Freeman, renewing their wedding vows. Accompanying them are their three adorable children. This was held on the beach at sunset and it was a beautiful evening. The ceremony was conducted by Bob Kadrie, Nathan's business partner. Lisa and Nathan are a wonderful couple and a shining example of how to have a beautiful family life and how to enjoy living. Congratulations, Nathan & Lisa, and thank you for being such good people.

Finally, here are some pix of our production team as we had dinner right after our debriefing meeting.

As with any meeting where you get to share great times and create wonderful memories with important people, it was kinda' sad to see Anarcapulco 2018 end. However, as Master of Ceremonies who worked 6 days from early AM till late evening, I am looking forward to a much-needed rest and break!

This is more than a meeting. It is about helping to implement freedom and liberty for people around the world. It is bigger than any one country or any group of people. It is about "peace, love, and anarchy" as Jeff Berwick likes to say.

Thank you to all who came up to me and gave me such wonderful comments about my work on stage. I look forward to hearing your comments.

Terry Brock

Thanx! I appreciate you getting this and sharing it!

You really were in the zone of Anarcapulco and met some great people. What an absolute privilege. Thanks for the post - really enjoyed reading it and sensed the positivity and great prospects for the future. Happy days!

Thank you. It was a great experience, once again, being with my fellow liberty-lovers.

Wow very detailed post and a ton of rockstar presenters! I wonder what it would be like to be in such a place where great minds think a like! End fiat currencies and central banks, promote the rapid adoption of cryptocurrencies and restore a gold standard! Thanks for the wonderful pictures - I felt like I was there.

I would have loved to have gone to that! Congratulations on a very successful turnout, and I hope to learn much from the presenters and attendees in the days ahead. As you can see from the photo below, I’m sure I would have enjoyed hearing what G. Edward Griffin had to say.

My daughter use to do the carriage rides on Jekyll and tell the tourists about the deceased homeowners from the historic district. Maybe we should have a conference right on Jekyll. There's lots of inexpensive hotel space, especially in the off-season.

I bet she has some great stories to tell! That would be a fun place to have a conference about the Fed Reserve. Being in the context of the story would be a surreal experience. I walked the Freedom Trail in Boston once. I imagine this would evoke a similar feeling.

I too had a chance to be the opening speaker at the Ron Paul rally here in San Antonio Tx. Terry, you had way more time & personal interaction than I but here's the link anyway... I'm the first guy on stage a few seconds in.

Nice Information, thanks !
Make sure to check out my airdrops posts too!

@terrybrock you absolutely rocked it. I can't think of anyone doing the hyper-important job of introducing the speakers (and getting them off stage when needed:P) better than you. I was really proud of you watching you operate with tact and gentle yet firm guidance. Next Anarchapulco will be huge. Coming with friends and fiancee this time! Much Love and Keep on rocking!
