This is the quite clearly the 4th Turning

It definitely looks like we are in a Kondratieff Winter

In such times in the past, moving into hard assets and cash was the best place to be.

But this time it is different.
What we value is about to be turned on its head.

Stocks

Stocks Markets are about to close and never reopen. Fraud so deep it will be years, maybe decades before they decide if anyone actually owns any stock.

Bonds

Bond interest rates are going to go up and up and up... right before they become worthless.
There will be currency shenanigans all around the world.
Revaluing currencies, introducing new currencies.
And many govern-cements are just going to stop existing

Cash

All those countries revaluing currencies... well, yeah, the old standby "cash" may not be very safe.
The funny thing is, after the bank crashes, cash may be king... even though it isn't accepted by banks any more.
The central banks could be introducing their poisoned digital currency... but no one is taking it

And everyone just keeps using cash, because they know it and believe it will all be worked out... soon.

Rental Property

We are about to experience the biggest die off in recorded history.
Even 10% is a huge number of people.

There will be huge numbers of empty properties. Renting will require you to actually add something, some sort of service that is better than just finding an empty house and moving in.

Properties out in the country, where you can grow food, will suddenly become valuable,
and those suburban Mc. Mansions will become worthless.

Derivatives

We all know Exters Pyramid?

Well, the derivatives, one way, or another, are just going to vaporize, and along with them, many financial institutions.

One way is that people stop believing in them and all rush to the door to sell the hot potato. It will be decades before anyone figures out who owes whom what.

Second is smart contracts. If derivatives were encased in a smart contract, it would trigger and pay out by its predetermined formulas. No ifs, ands, or butts. As soon as these become mainstream, all the old derivatives are has beens.

Gold

Gold will go up and up after the manipulation ends, and some places try to recreate a gold standard.

Then later, people are going to realize that gold is not all that rare, and bitcoin is sooooooooo much better, AND the rots-children and CO. own most of the gold and just decide, it was grandpa's money. Not for me. Ima stay with bitcoin.

Then gold plummets to the price of a nice jewellery making metal.

What's left?

Well, i suggest you have some crypto, some silver and some cash.

None of them will be the end all, be all. Each will have a moment where they are king.
You are going to have to keep your eyes open. To surf the waves as they come.

Like Mall real estate used to be the thing... soon it will be real agricultural farm land. (not the factory farm stuff)
Iron used to be the metal that built the industrial revolution... now it is all about aluminum and plastic.
What will be the next metals? Silver and copper?

Guns and ammo may be important... or they may be completely useless depending on your neighbors and how close you are to the civil war fronts.

I suggest buying food.
It will pay the highest ROI this year... (no, i think bitcoin will outperform it this year)
and, unlike all the other assets, you CAN eat it.
