I had an evil corporation shut down my business by placing armed security at my leased office location, try to kill me, and put a security detail on me that's constant surveillance drove a healthy state of paranoia into schizophrenia into madness.
My brother and my niece came to the cabin one weekend and arrived to find me barricaded inside, I had cut contractor bags and duct taped them over the windows several layers thick, closed all blinds over them, had floodlights off the roof lighting up the area surrounding it as if it was day.....in order to see the people paid to watch me, which were no longer there. Once that switch gets flipped and you basically become a squirrel (tense, strung out, and making every move as if you might be stepping on a land mine) it's really hard to flip it back off. It took eighteen months in order for me to do it and not be afraid of those I thought were always waiting for me in the dark anymore.
At the cabin I'd often shoot at the ground off the balcony....not looking to hit anyone, but to scare the people there and hopefully frighten them enough to leave me alone. This would typically happen at 3am to 4am, when I was exhausted and needed to sleep....I'd shoot off several rounds, tell them I just needed to get some rest, to leave me alone, that they'd never take me alive, and then I'd barricade myself inside and sleep next to a pile of loaded guns. I had guns everywhere and on me at all times.
The reason why they were after me, which there legitimately was a team of undercover security watching me for five weeks after they shut me down, was because I was the first guy to ever to figure out exactly how they fukced us...and they ruined a lot of good people's lives alongside mine. I figured it out and used it try to blackmail them and that's when the CEO and brain trust (the big three) shut me down, tried to kill me, and offered me $5 million up front with $10 million in future stock options which I took, but wanted a contract to help those like me get back on their feet and fix some things internally within the company that would give them a fighting chance. The company reneged....probably never had any intention of giving me anything.
In two months on speed during the deepest and darkest period of my life....completely alone....despised and hated by all those that used to love me after having gone mad.....in two months on speed, with no prior accounting or financial background.....
....I figured out the entirety of the complexity of all the intricacies that make up the pile of bullshit that is our global economy.
I know where the real money is, how it gets shared and counted by virtually every multi-national corporation in the top fortune one hundred, I know how much fake money doesn't exist and how it is accounted for....I figured it all out top to bottom, by looking at it from the bottom to the top (only way it'd be possible for someone like me to figure it out), and I pieced ALL of it together.
I call it the "LinkedIn" economy. It's a bunch of jobs where people talk about their job, don't actually do any work otherwise, and this is attributable to the top 1% of the top 1% being generous enough to provide the world with such a luxurious fake economy. Seriously, they're not taking from us....they're very, very giving. They'd rather have a populous with some relative wealth for a lot of reasons. One, it makes them richer. Two, it stops the masses from putting their heads on pikes. Three, they're people....and even bad people are still often largely inherently good. They do a lot of philanthropy, have wives that are sympathetic to the poor, and despite always protecting their bottom line first, like all of us do, they're actually not bad people and not out to screw over the world. Money always tends to flow to the top and as we've become more efficient of a workplace society with computers and automation they've had to get really creative in creating jobs for everyone in the ever decreasing need for the human labor market. Hence all the data mining. It's worthless. Just something to create jobs. Everyone that knows statistics understands that after a sample size of 120 nothing is going to change on a bell curve more than 3%. So again, millions and millions of never ending sample sizes (AKA "data") is totally pointless....completely worthless, besides giving a bunch of idiots jobs to sit and talk about it in conference rooms thinking they're actually doing something of value at work.
The people running the world aren't bad people and they're not advertising it. These are people you might see at Target. You just don't see them all blinged out sitting in a leer jet for a spread in People magazine. That shit is for the celebrities. Don't get me wrong these people take leer jets, but it's important to understand they walk amongst us. One out of a thousand people have insane wealth and one out of anywhere from ten thousand to a hundred grand are someone that is making big plays and partially responsible for calling the shots that literally are "running the world." They're fairly normal people. They do normal stuff and experience culture like the rest of us. You've bumped elbows with them at places like the State Fair....their wives and kids drag them to shit like that too.
Anyways, back to me figuring out the global economy.
The last meltdown was caused by accident when AIG rolled up a bunch of shit called CDO's (collateralized debt obligations), comprised of tranches made up of subprime mortgage backed securities, sold them as a hedge against losing your ass (AKA what is called a "derivative"), and when the credit-default swaps that they sold as their main tool for risk management which they absolutely never expected to get called on....well, when they got called on them and had to pay out ("money insurance" is all that it ultimately is despite the fancy names) they didn't have the cash to do it....
...and that was the first and biggest domino that fell that caused the 2007-08 financial meltdown.
You can't stop these guys and honestly, why would you want to? These guys are propping up the global economy by creating trillions upon trillions in money that doesn't actually exist and putting it on paper.
They're doing the same exact shit. Same players, same stuff, they just switch out the lead dog and let them be the one to take the blame when shit blows up next time around, and then they switch out the lead dog and cycle back through again. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
I could tell you who the lead dog is, how and where they're doing the same shit as they did leading up to 2007-08 ("CLO" collateralized loan obligations, "Bermuda Based Reinsurance" are going to be the two main terms you hear next time around), I can tell you all about how they literally use a simple bait and switch to do this....
....basically our financial system works like this:
A dude has $10K in his checking account and prints off a balance slip at an ATM to show his bookie he's good for ten large on the big game. Then he does the same with another bookie, and another, and another, and then a dozen, couple dozen, etc. Assuming the guy gets it right and his team wins, he's fine. With the financial market the bets they're making over and over again they have like a 99.5% chance of winning every time, again because they're selling "money insurance" or what is called a derivative...it's a small wager put up where it's intended to be lost and is paid for out of the bottom line operating expense. Basically it only exists to protect these corporations or financial entities or whatever you want to call them from total financial collapse in the rare, rare, very rare chance that something no one ever thought would happen actually happens....like the US housing market defaulting on itself and shit tons of people---make that financial institutions that own the mortgage note---find themselves underwater on their equity stake in something that's worth a lot less than the money they lent out to purchase it.
The global financial market is actually very simple to understand there are only three types of building blocks that comprise it.
Equity, debt, & derivatives
That's it. Obviously you have things like liquidity that come into play for equity, dividends, all kinds of shit like that...complexities to each that some accounting professor could go on and on for days discussing....but ultimately it boils down to equity, debt, and derivatives. The DNA that are the building blocks to the genetic make up of our global economy.
Back to my example about the guy going to the bookie umpteen times. How much money crossed hands? Or better put, how much money actually existed in all of it? Let's put the finite number of times the guy used the same funds to make a different bet at two dozen times.
In each transaction there was $20K involved. $10K the guy was putting up, versus the $10K the bookie put up. 24 X $20K = $480K
Never mind that we know the guy never had $240K to cover his action on all those bets. He only had $10K. That's all the money that ever existed, right?
Not anymore. On a corporate earnings report and financial filings you better damn well believe that it shows up as $240K, or $480K total. Companies report that when they lose, especially when they lose....
....and that's how money gets created and used to prop up the global economy. All kinds of money being counted over and over again, and then used to make more bets, and build trade, pay employees for doing worthless work.
That's how it's created.
It's obviously done a lot more calculated and less haphazard, and certainly far less risky for it to ever be called on and exposed (AKA "they lose" the bet and have to pay) but every now and then....something really fukced up happens in a different part of their scheme that has unintended consequences they didn't foresee, like the housing market crashing, and the lead dog has to show their cards, just like AIG had to the last time, and it turns out they were bluffing the whole time....and when that happens the entire interconnected house of cards collapses in on itself....because some other dog in the sled team....like Goldman Sachs....now has their bullshit that was propped up by AIG's bullshit be exposed for being total bullshit....and the dominos start rolling and the next thing you know....
"Poof!"
The markets get reset and all that fake wealth?
Gone. Like a fart in the wind. Just like that it disappears as easily as it was created.
It's never gone for that long because guess what?
No one died.
When the world's largest/oldest auditing firm Arthur Andersen was given the death penalty....literally destroyed by the US Government for all the fukced up shit they did in creating and enabling Enron to be the giant pile of shit that defrauded...well, everyone really in ways big and small.
I like to use Arthur Andersen as an example because unless I missed it---ten thousand accountants didn't get executed that day the company was destroyed.
They simply went to Deloitte, KPG, etc., and did the same fukced up shit they had always done.
Anyways, I've already told you more than you really should want to know. I'm sure as shit not going to tell you how I'm getting paid out of all of this, the names, the players, any of that shit.....because I'm going to take the money, shut my fukcing mouth, and never talk about any of this ever again because I'm not an idiot and I don't want to be snuffed out.
Seriously, neither do any of you. They watch all this shit. They know all of it.
I'm more than happy to tip my cap to them, as a sign of deference, a sign of respect, mind my P's and Q's and move along with my life and give this shit up forever after I've got my check.
