That Avatar "I am a man of wealth and taste" is a warning that all is not as it seems to be.. Bending perceptions of reality is an art and not a science... I have lots of tools in that box and know how to use them.

If they think I am a fool I don't get mad I get even by playing into what they think to the Nth degree..If they think I am being immodest, I become very very immodest..

I use their own pejorative perceptions about me against themselves...

It works every time even if I tell em what I do before I do it...

Immediately I want you folks to think that what I say can be put in the bank. That it is it a clear assessment of the situation and or the truth of the matter.

That you have that, "Oh yeah that what is going on" moment.

With that heads up you become forearmed and can weather virtually any storm.
You can call it a public service..on my part.

Tabs, what should I actually do based on your advice?

Should I sell stocks and buy bonds? or sell them into cash?

I do not know or am affiliated with anyone buying nor selling Gold or Silver.

Back when i just got out of HS I used to go up to the East Fork to Sluice and pan for Gold. I climbed all over those hills...

I can tell ya that there is notin like finding some Gold nuggets to motivate you to get back to digging or dredging. It is hard work but is fun to do. I found another sort of treasure hunting which is easier on the back...as it turns out that treasure is as good as Gold.

As the Investment Guru said recently, "Today's investment advice is buy AK 47's.



We are living through an unprecedented time in human history where we are facing a Global economic empire in a state of collapse. In the recesses of history we have had regional empire collapses. Like the western Roman empire, Eastern Med civilization and Egyptian Old Kingdom but never a Global wipe out..That is the potential killer of a civilization as we know it. There will be no pocket of stability to draw upon, everything will be chaos.

The people who are the Global elites who run the fkin show are the biggest bunch of fking morons imaginable... They had the stupidity to take out the FIREWALLs like Glass Steagle. Compartmentalization is important, for if one water tight compartment on a ship gets flooded the remainder remain dry and the ship stays afloat. What they did in their desire to facilitate their money making capacity is to remove the water tight doors to in their effort to intertwine Global finance.. Risk of catastrophic failure has only remained an abstract concept to this day..hence the Squirrel games continue...lets make a buck regardless of the consequences to the system. They have burned their own safety nets..

It does not matter anymore the tsunami has been set in motion. It has only been forestalled by putting foreclosures, debt, rent on hold for awhile. We are in a twilight zone between solvency and facing the effects of insolvency..Look at the number of unemployed, BK's and business closures that are permanent. It is unprecedentedly massive...rivaling the Great Depression of the 30's. Yet they euphemistically call it a Recession instead of the Depression that it really is...talk about not leveling with people and being disingenuous.

Stocks, bonds and cash is going to be toilette paper. I have long said that you have to play that game until the music stops playing..you have to make a living between now and then..but you have to consider it to be lost when the shyte hits the fan. That is the price you have to pay to live in this society.

But it has been a good idea to hedge and put some money into non traditional assets like Gold Silver, Guns and ammo. If you can own a plot of land where you can grow you own fruit, veggies and maybe some chickens so that you can get by.. then you have done what you can do.

There is no certain answer. You have to be able to adapt to circumstance, for that you have to have a certain amount of clarity as to what is really going on. You have to pay attention and not get caught up in the BS of the moment..

Watch the FED, what it does and what it says..that is where the real power in the world exists.. and not in the political azz clown circus freak show. They are not even fighting over the scraps anymore..all the winner is gona get is steaming pile of shyte on a plate..Change the fkin world what a fkin joke that is..the world is already on fire...What they will get is to be on TV when they want..their 30 minutes of fame and go down in the history books as....

I hope that helps..

Being callous does not mean that they were not being stupid.

You also seem to have bought into the cynicism of the times that getting yours at any cost is a smart thing to do. That then makes you part of the problem.

Here is what i wrote about tabs in the past.

Tabs is mentally ill.
He is a homeless divorced man who called for the end of the world since Truman.
He shorted the market 30 years ago and went broke and has ZERO assets.
He is basically the UnaBomber, without the education.

1) Ignore Tabs.
2) Open Vanguard account
3) Stick it all into the correct fund for your age
4) Drink beer

https://investor.vanguard.com/mutual-funds/target-retirement/#/

Tabs has been calling for nuclear war since the Reagan era.
He has buried a school bus in his backyard as his bunker.
He is mentally ill

However he is a market expert and has correctly predicted the last 16 out of 5 market crashes.

When asked, tabs, please disclose exactly how your assets are allocated.
Please state percentages like a pie chart.

eg:
S&P 500 fund = 20%
Bond ETF = 15%
Home Equity = 50%
Cash = 10%
Bitcoin = 5%

He says "None of your business"

Exactly as I suspected.
Nothing but a pointless mentally ill windbag.

Your opinions are worth less than dog**** without disclosure of your skin.

Windbag with no positions backing up his empty talk
Markets going UP! Markets going down!

Ahhhh, SHET UP!!!

Do you feel this frustration with other people in your life?.

Wpuld you like to talk about your mother?
