I found the information you shared yesterday incredibly valuable and eye-opening. I couldn't agree more, life has definitely become so much more expensive, and it's important we talk about these changes openly.
Grateful for your insight and the way you bring awareness to these deeper truths.
Thanks for the information in this video, Graham, but I have lived in my own aura of life for sixty plus years relying on my intuitions. I made peace with my inner self decades ago when I found out what my purpose in life would be. I grew up in poverty, so you learn to live without many things but still continue to strive no matter what life throws in your path. I'm still living in the countryside raising chickens, ducks, turkeys, growing different kinds of veggies and fruit trees. What you speak of here I have already lived through many times, without skipping a beat, I still continue to move through it despite what is going on in this world. Each day that am here is another day earn, and I value that! I've spent a lifetime caring and protecting people from all walks of life. As I age gracefully through my life, my abilities and skills are still needed by people still struggling to survive in a world that has never been balance for everyone to live comfortably. The United States of America continue to deteriorate from the unpredictable ways of how past and future president and their administration have run our country. I'm not on board with their methods and I will always go against them, because their way of thinking is not logic for everyone, only a select group. I don't rely too much on what people say on all these media platforms unless it is useful in what I'm doing in my life. Al's, been around for decades, but just like everything else in this world it to has flaws. So, thank again for the information you present here today. Hope you have a beautiful and wonderful day or evening wherever you maybe at these days.
Graham, thank you very much for taking us through this important information and implications. I always appreciate how you tie in values, authenticity, and your spiritual path as you seek to understand and learn new things. Chris and I discovered Mallers video a few days ago and found it a real eye opener. Its a similar situation with the global warming agenda. What one uses (or manipulates) as the starting point, comparitors or baselines significantly skews the findings or impressions about the findings.
For the last 15 years of my working career, a major focus was measurements analysis, benchmarking and business analytics. I learned so much about how to be honest and ethical and how to spot dishonest, unethical and manipulative practices. Again with global warming as an example if one's goal is to generate disproportionate alarm, set the starting point at the Little Ice Age; set the trend line graph as high above 0 as possible; and collect the data from urban areas which have grown enormously as heat sinks. One can easily make it look like impending disaster. You probably noticed Graham, that when you come into Calgary from the Saskatoon Farm, the temperature goes up 2 to 3°c winter or summer.
Its so important to be looking for a variety of sources and analysis to understand what is really going on.
On a related note, you've likely heard that Canada's new PM is trying to force us to digital banking (we don't do digital banking) and limit or freedom to use cash (we use cash as much as possible for privacy reasons). This direction and the insane debt our government is accumulating scares the heck out of me.
Great information and conversation Graham! Love your passion and your sincere concern for us.
I found this discussion fascinating, particularly in the comparison of our measuring stick of stored monetary value and our perception in measuring our own personal value and sense of purpose. Consumer demand over the years has been driven by the perception of “I gotta have” the latest and greatest to be successful. A bigger house, car, expensive phone, bigger TV, streaming services etc. all of which is consumer demand inflationary. I find the same can be said for our increased demand of social media content and “self help” advice and products. We increasingly are being told we need to do this or that to be happy, successful or fulfilled. Our self worth is being influenced, or measured, by what others tell us we “must have” or do. Doing the inner work of self purpose and value is just as imperative as protecting our financial future. In my opinion, due diligence, education, trusted guidance and sources are the key. Thank you, Graham, for having these informative and thought provoking chats!
great info graham there’s a lot to take in i will listen to these videos you’ve posted. i never thought of being in a recession since 2011 it makes sense trump says gas & egg ie: grocery prices have gone down but not here in the northeast US. it’s actually gone up we are the 2nd most expensive state just behind hawaii. i do like your idea of when you use your cc then send some money over to bitcoin to invest like you said it doesn’t have to be a lot that way you wont miss it as much but your bitcoin will accumulate. by the way i was surprised i got this notification as i still don’t receive them when you go live. it still baffles me!🤔
Less is definitely more in terms of material items. I bought an 80.00 Kate Spade purse with a wallet. I found the retail price for around 600.00 approximately online for the same purse and wallet combo. Instead of buying several purses over time at lower prices that would cost around the same amount, I bought this instead because it will endure over time. I will spend the same amount over the next 5-6 years for cheaper quality purses and instead I bought a nice purse that I found thrifting instead.
I can buy several lower priced items over time off of SHEIN in terms of clothing OR I can buy fewer items that have a higher quality. I know that Stitch Fix and things like that exist, but I would rather have 5 nicer quality outfits for when I need them versus 20 at a lower quality. I work from home, so I save money on clothing, gas, using my vehicle, and going out to lunch. I choose to live a certain way and I don’t care. I can be judged, but really it’s my life at the end of the day. A dietitian said to stick to the outside aisles at most grocery stores in order to focus on the fresh food. I shop at ALDI’s because they are inexpensive and fairly fresh. Maybe I should invest in ALDI’s? I am always at their grocery store since I have kids that eat everything in sight.
I agree with you that very small investments over time about something that I am passionate about would be beneficial over time. I love reading and I absolutely love audiobooks, so maybe I will invest in Audible? I am not sure. I don’t know enough about Bitcoin to invest or make a decision. I just know that I lose pennies in the “virtual” couch when I do use Bitcoin lol 😂.
As for AI, the upper echelon will end up spending more money over time because AI doesn’t have common sense and it doesn’t have the human touch. One of the participants on this chat said their spouse is a truck driver. My ex-husband is a truck driver. I don’t necessarily worry about AI driving a truck because there are simply certain decisions that humans need to make. As long as we have humans making errors, AI won’t be able to take over. In the end, AI might cost more for certain things than what it’s worth.
Thank you for bringing this information to us it so important. I , have been following you since the Calgary conference, it was an eye opener so I started working with it and watched it grow . Thank You 🙏
Iwas not a payed one someone pay ti put me in it .I wash they did not waist there money on me to do it .I don.t always see his stuff I am not computer smart. I can watch on substack. And Instagram and YouTube just fine I have a hard time getting into zoom and one other he uses .when answer question he does it more to the one s he had a long time I do not how many times I ask a question and he ignored it. Tonight he ignored it again tell I wrote something he saw that and said he miss it .I want to call bull crap on it .he done to me so many times
Graham, thanks for a great chat about some very necessary topics!
Currency debasement has been occuring since humanity used money in exchange for goods and services. In antiquity, pure gold and silver coins were diluted with ever increasing amounts of cheaper metals. Today, with countries no longer on a gold standard keeping the money printing in check, private central banks simply print more money to do the same kind of debasement, but allows it to occur MUCH faster than in centuries past.
This drives inflation and the cost for goods up because there is more money chasing less goods. Eventually, debasement reaches a point of unsustainability and an overt major crash comes in. The "economy" goes in waves of depression and boom on a 100 year cycle that kind of looks like an s wave, with an upswing at the start, a rapid downturn and crash, with a subsequent recovery phase. Some talking heads in the US and Canada say we aren't in a depression let alone a recession. Dollars actually went FARTHER in the 1930s depression than they do now! Inflation IS a silent DEPRESSiON, robbing us of purchasing power with more money as debt, skyrocketing costs, and less goods and services.
Bitcoin (BTC) is a good way to become your own banker and gain in the long term. It's good to divest as much as possible from the house of cards fiat system and the strings pulled that has caused all this mess. To be a maximalist in anything and have all your eggs in one basket (including BTC) though may not be the best approach. For example, having some investment in BTC, some in gold and in silver or other precious metals may offer more balance.
Silver is set to reach CDN $75/oz soon. It has been artificially suppressed for a long time by the banksters, but now that the comex'es are running out of silver, and the fact it's needed in electronics and medical applications as raw material, they can't play their games any more. Silver has always had a 35:1 to 20:1 ratio to gold historically. With gold at $3500 USD / oz, that means silver should be from $100-$175 USD/oz. If gold should be revalued to todays market value, I've heard some economists say that it should be around $80K/oz, which, using that price, would bring silver into the $2285-$4000 USD/oz range!
With regard to control, BTC itself can't be controlled as long as you are able to buy things directly with it. I am hoping more and more businesses adopt it! The governments of the world, in particular the west and Europe, are trying to control all the off ramps to convert crypto to dollars and more and more exchanges require KYC. If you don't go on an exchange that requires KYC, and you try to use them when new crypto regulations come in, they will just assume you don't have valid crypto and will assume criminality. Catherine Austin Fitts and Whitney Webb have a lot of info on how the cabal has a plan to come in with control of things like BTC from the backend. I'm sure if that happens there will be workarounds developed by the community. We shall see what comes. It's good have some of this info, not to be negative or dwell on it, but in the interest of knowing what might be coming down the pike from those in the know to sort of - head it off at the pass and secure ones future.
Graham et al, I'm wondering if you'd heard of digibyte at all? It's more decentralized than even BTC and has 5 different algorithms it spreads its ledger transactions on. It is also not subject to a 51% attack as BTC is vulnerable to (which would take some doing!). Also, it may even be more quantum decryption resistant too by its nature. Like BTC, anyone can run a node and the system has at least as many nodes as BTC, and has been around almost as long. They have a dedicated dev team with goals that seem aligned with BTC values as well. Some of the BTC devs moved over to digibyte if I remember rightly.
With regard to organic food, there is no organic, at least in supermarkets, unless you know the farmer or grow it yourself. Even *organic" produce can possibly come with a coating that makes it unhealthy. Enter Bill Gates' apeel is coating, which does not have to be labeled BTW with recent changes to FDA and Canadas food label laws. It extends shelf life however the chemical, when applied, requires hazmat type precautions! Not very "apeeling" to be sure!

Obrigada por compartilhar, Graham! Vou assistir quando chegar em casa. 😊

Thank you for the information and links to further research into Bitcoin. I appreciate all the content you bring to all of your followers. Blessings.

Thank you, Graham, for this very informative podcast. It gives me a lot to think about. I will check out the videos you posted.

I will look into the sights you posted. Maybe Bitcoin is not for senior citizens over 80.
Thank you for bringing this information to us it so important. I , have been following you since the Calgary conference, it was an eye opener so I started working with it and watched it grow . Thank You 🙏
God Bless
It must be my phone. I will get my son to check it out
I have all my change go into Bitcoin when i use my cash app.. Collected alot…coins change..

You got a full scoop here Bob. I think I'd need an entire podcast to just cover all your points here! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the conversation and insights on such a valuable topic.
