VW Van life update and why inflation is important to pay attention to:steemCreated with Sketch.

Paying attention, most people are not and they don't even know what inflation is. It is in my opinion, one of the most important things that should be taught in school and is aggressively responsible for making the rich richer and poor poorer.

The picture above is a new 2.5 litre Subaru engine replacing a 1.9 litre VW engine. As mentioned in my previous post I am moving into the van cutting my fixed overhead to under $200.00 CAD per month with variable costs of food and gas and trying to survive under an early pension of $750.00 CAD mos. The van is expected to be ready for its travels in a week or two. Gonna try to eliminate work and winter.

Inflation is the dilution of your money - are you paying attention yet? What is the dilution of your money and should you care?

My good friend the other day said there is no inflation as the Canadian official inflation rate is posted at 1%. I told him my personal experience of just a few weeks ago when I went to a gas station to use the washroom and grabbed a coffee out of guilt and addiction. At the till there were some pepperoni sticks and my stomach said - just do it! So I did and as I walked to the Van I thought to myself "$8.49 for a coffee and pepperoni - and they say there is no inflation". Lucky I had discovered internet money developed by programmers a few years ago and moved my money to that, whereas it is open source code and the inflation or creation is 100% transparent. My portfolio is up over 500% so I was laughing as in my personal world, I am beating the inflation my friend says he does not see, in leaps and bounds.

I was also talking to my ex sister-in-law just a few days back and she said she is seeing inflation big time. An interesting fact is the USA dollar has been inflated away to the tune of 96-98% over the last 100 years. You may say oh well hundred years I don't feel that, but drilling down 50% of that was during the years 1977-1982. Are you paying attention yet? I see ugly inflation coming in the tune of those 5 years. Mark my words (on this steemit blockchain) you will see your money diluted to the tune of 50% within the next 5-10 years. This dilution (inflation) is used as a hidden tax to pay the debts of an over indebted world and the mismanagement of your government.

The highest level of the banks are criminal enterprises (most bankers and staff are wonderful people and don't have a clue) but their top shareholders are front running your activities and you lose. The top global banks being fined over $204 Billion dollars in the last few years.

Now maybe those pepperoni sticks I picked up at the gas station were on the long side but $8.49 for coffee and pepperoni they certainly were not that long - I see inflation first hand!

You are not living in the free market capitalistic world you thought you were. You are living in a corporate capture environment and you should accept such and act accordingly. Like the number one thing you can do is shop local! Then you could make sure to vote for people who back unions, high minimum wages and extreme environment controls on corporations. I would go as far as changing the corporation act to make it law that all companies have a big percentage of the shares issued owned by the employees and community.

@american-pie can you slow down please.

Why i am so down .... Can you told me

The corrupt experts said that inflation is good for the people, nonsense.
$200.00 CAD per month With inflation Its going to be difficult, I believe ?

Your words are actually curious

hmmm!

I would like to talk about education,It is very simple there is education for the slave (people) "He learns what it takes to serve their meter". and The education of the aristocrat (thief,government,religion...) He learns how to use people.

You have marked a good point

And the van looks powerful and roomy.

wonder full van for specially journy on mountains for a trip greenman sir

I just wondering to see that a new 2.5 litre Subaru engine can replacing a 1.9 litre VW engine. but you make this real sense , and yes ofc, with the hard work can do anything. Good luck my friend . follow you @greenman to watch you all kind of great stuffs

Do you prefer buying new vehicles or used ones or lease a car?

I started with used as I could not afford new. Now that my crypto account is getting larger I am spending on the vehicle I had and bringing it to new. My next vehicle will most likely be 1-2 years old max but probably not brand new. I avoid leasing unless my personal company (if I had one) was making enough revenue to write the whole expense off.

Good Luck

That's a thought like a great businessman

Thanks for providing the information. It always helps to learn from the experienced ones.

ur talk on inflation and money and bankers is give us some new thinking about it....and sure ur sister in law say right about inflatin that she see in many time and i agree with her after read ur talk on it.

I agree also

Nice to see ur new 2.5 subaru engine replacing a 1.9 litre
hope it will ready soon in only 1 week as u say and go more good for ur new journey @greenman sir

I would like to know how the 204 Billion fined money was used.

Good post.

Big Banks suck.

great post. Looking nice pic. Thanks For Share.

wow its amazing :)

Yes excellent answer, It irritates me people who do not understand

Great post, thanks for sharing!

@greengirl found @greenman .... if this is not a romance :D

Wonder if @greengirl will mind I am jobless, homeless and no wheels (yet). Is your mother available? Oh @jenjenjen - the van full name is: Jenny Freedom DJ Vanagon.

It seems like аll the right audience here ! @greenman lul

I'll have to disappoint you @greenman , because she is not . But I'm sure that many other ladies would love to share Jenny Freedom DJ Vanagon with you :)

I will be looking for a new home and a partner like minded. Thx.

Have anyone in your mind

Well there is this one special lady...we will see.

wow......

Yes indeed they think of us as blind and brainless people who will never come to our senses of these secret taxes and shit. Too bad that the majority will probably never come to their senses because they are just too dumb really... $8.49 for coffee and pepperoni ? I'd say that's stealing from the customers wallet in the middle of the day.

I can not even imagine how you can fight inflation ... Actually, the state itself must fight it, but it does not.

You can fight it by moving your money out of fiat currency into assets such as tangible gold or intangible open source transparent value like owning a share in the blockchain ledger technology known as bitcoin.

Yes, I began to invest all my own money in the crypto currency. However, I buy not so much bitcoin, as different altcoyins.

@greenman thanks for sharing with us I really don't know about this things but Van is really cool!! Keep posting with us:)

when i will earn enough , i will do the same and travel around :)

This is so true make sense :)

nice day to you @greenman, wow awesome car for awesome bitcoin president.

Anyone who says there is no inflation has no idea about economics.

Ah yes inflation, the hidden tax... governments literally stealing you the amount that they print by devaluating the currency you're holding...

yes sir u r right it is very important that to taught in school about inflation

We should have an investment with diversified portfolio in order to beat inflation.
Compound interest as said by Albert Einstein:-

plays a vital role in beating inflation !!!

This is awesome living on the wheels. What about the water supply?

It has a built in sink with 5 gallon tank to hold water.

Do you got a kitchen setup too? to cook for yourself or you will buy food at restaurants?

Yes, it has two burner propane stove with 11 pound propane bottle for stove and heater.

I really like this concept of off grid life living in tiny houses, van life etc. Can we expect your van inner view in your new posts. I like this women living in van for 3 years

Yes, once the van is more complete I will give a full tour of it.

Cool. Looking forward to see the whole View of it. All the best. Wish you good luck with your van life.

build in 5 gal fresh water tank and sink

I read your conversation with stefen. It's amazing & I'm waiting for your next post when you show full pic of your van.

Wonderful CAR!!!!! @greenman ..... I like your smile too

Mr @greenman has a very charismatic smile, I agree :)

The Rothchilds of world are sucking the blood out of the corporate world.

haha well written.

This is so true!

Have fun

Inflation is the worst part. If we lend all our money to banks, in next 10 years we'll be waving the worthless bills in the air. So, we should invest in crypro currencies :)

Awesome post @greenman, the van looks so cool and attractive.

WoW sweet van for sweet @greenman, really nice color and shape.

Good article, but you living in USA have not yet seen real inflation, come to RSA ( Republic of South Africa) to see real inflation, although the powers to be state that the inflation is only 5 %to 6%. the man in the street knows that it is much higher on normal purchases.
suffer in silence in the good old RSA

it's totally true, I can not understand how people do not understand.There are heroes who sacrifice their lives To make people understand, Which are led by bandits, Mes as if you're talking to a stone.

Most Dutch people had no clue what was going on during the tulip inflation either.

The FIAT based economy might very well collapse and that is the time you wish you owned some transparent cryptofunds!

@ronni

yes sir mostly dont know inflaction

good day to you paul collin sir, nice cool car really attractive.

wow sir u want go to antother trip

crypto and fiat are here to stay. better to be diversified.

You can never fight inflation with FIAT money.

wonderfull van sir i think it is in an garge

good topic post sir @greenman

here is the historic USA inflation chart.

many people says that roathchild will launsh cryptocurrency sir

Inflation is taxation without legislation that ruining everyone's life in one way or the other

whats a exellent van in black its best for journy sir

This is the best advice to all noobs over here.

I totally agree with everything, i wonder what your honest idea is about Steemit, it is one of the few crypto's where inflation is happening to provide rewards and i a see you are seriously invested in it. Me too honestly, i guess you are just as anarchistic seeing the bigger picture in it? :-)

What gets me so excited about steemit is how addicting it has been on me. There is no other platform that I would enjoy blogging on so much. Steemit has made it extremely easy to blog my story and message. It is great therapy as well to get some steam off ones mind! And as an investor yes I am bias but find it a very appealing business proposition. I also see big upside with more exciting posts daily and new revenue streams to come. You can fight steem inflation by moving it to steem power as well.

Life has become expensive, you have to know how to spend better to live better, thanks for your philosophy of life Mr president !! upvoted

Awesome smile @greenman sir, congratulations sir for the van it is so stylish and beautiful.

the problem about inflation is that the rate is changing and nobody knows how much new money will be created out of thin air.
thats why 32 million bitcoins sounds like a great idea.
my only consideration was what does people stop to create bitcoin 2.0 and then bitcoin 3- copy 1 to 1 and make the exact same thing with more coins

awesome vw van and great post sir

what will you do in winter?

go south young man...go south.

Florida is calling you ;)

Inflation has always been the silent killer.

how much did van conversion cost?

$15,000.00 CAD but included Gear box, transmission and engine.

Wow .. what's the capacity of people inside in it?

Sleeps four and currently set up for 5 adults to commute but you can add an additional seat for 2 more people.

Omg that's really great means 7 people capacity.. I'm sure now Nature can be just as entertaining, if not more so, than digital entertainment. Waking up in natural surroundings drastically alters the course of one’s day. I wish u very best of luck have a good day sir

wow that's great

Cool. What model is the van?

Congratulations it's a beautiful van

Awesome post :)

HOW many horse Power the car had ?
