The Fed’s Biggest Con
Dear Reader,
Look, I need to tell you something.
Your financial advisor won't say it. Your banker definitely won't. But someone needs to.
The Federal Reserve is picking your pocket every single day.
And most people have no idea it's happening.
Let me show you how this works.
The Federal Reserve is an unconstitutional cartel that creates fake money out of thin air, loans it out, and rakes in interest—all while destroying your purchasing power and calling it "economic policy."
Every dollar they print steals from every dollar you own—making prices rise, wages stagnate, and your savings worth less, while funding unsustainable jobs that collapse in the next crisis.
Real money (gold, stock-based currencies) protects and grows your wealth—but the government strips your freedom to choose it because politicians and bankers profit from forcing you to use their rigged system.
It's Actually a Cartel
Here's the thing about the Fed.
It's not really "federal." And there's no "reserve."
It's a cartel. A group of bankers that Congress gave special privileges to. Privileges they shouldn't have.
Think about how normal banking works. A banker collects money from depositors. Then lends that money to borrowers. Takes on risk. Does actual work. Earns interest for that service.
Makes sense, right?
Now here's what the Fed does.
They create money. Out of thin air. Then lend it out. And collect interest on money that didn't exist five minutes ago.
No deposits needed. No risk taken. Just create it and lend it.
It's unconstitutional. But it's also genius.
Evil genius, but genius.
And you're the one paying for it.
They're Terrible at Their Job
The Fed claims they're here to help us. Three big goals, they say.
Maximum employment. Stable prices. Reasonable interest rates.
Sounds good, right?
Here's the problem. They fail at all three.
And it's not by accident.
They keep interest rates super low. Politicians love this because it makes the economy look good. Cheap money means people borrow and spend. Spending looks like growth.
But it's fake growth. Built on borrowed money.
And when it collapses? That's when you lose your job.
But by then, the politicians already got re-elected. The bankers already made their money.
You're left holding the bag.
Watch Your Wallet Get Lighter
Here's how they steal from you.
Let's say you work hard. You save money. You've got $10,000 in the bank.
Then the Fed creates a trillion new dollars.
What just happened to your $10,000?
It's worth less now. A lot less.
Same number in your account. But less buying power.
It's like someone watered down your drink when you weren't looking.
More dollars chasing the same amount of stuff means prices go up. That's not "inflation." That's theft.
They stole your purchasing power.
And they did it without breaking into your house.
The Jobs Scam
The Fed loves to talk about jobs.
"We need low interest rates to create jobs!"
Sounds caring. Sounds helpful.
It's a lie.
Here's what really happens. Low interest rates make borrowing cheap. So people borrow money and invest it. Those investments create jobs.
So far so good, right?
Wrong.
Those jobs are built on borrowed money that can never be paid back. The investments don't actually create enough value. They just look good while the cheap money is flowing.
When the borrowing stops—and it always stops—those jobs disappear.
Real jobs create real value. Something customers actually want to buy. With real money they actually earned.
Fake money creates fake jobs. Every time.
What You Really Want
The Fed thinks you want stable prices.
They're wrong.
You want cheaper prices.
Let me explain why.
Every year, we get better at making things. Better tools. Better technology. Better processes.
That means products should get cheaper to make. And when things are cheaper to make, they should be cheaper to buy.
Your wages stay the same. Prices drop. You can buy more stuff.
That's real wealth building right there.
But what happens instead? The Fed keeps creating new money. Prices keep rising. Your wages barely keep up.
You're running on a treadmill. Getting nowhere.
That's not an accident. That's the system working exactly as designed.
They Took Your Freedom
Here's something that really gets me.
You should be able to choose what money you use.
That's basic freedom, right?
But you can't.
The government forces you to use dollars. Their dollars. Backed by nothing except their say-so.
Want to use gold? Too hard. Too taxed. Too regulated.
Silver? Same thing.
Bitcoin? They fight it every step of the way.
Why?
Because real money holds its value. Real money limits government power.
Fake money that they print? That gives them unlimited power.
Over you. Over your savings. Over your future.
What Real Money Looks Like
For thousands of years, gold was money.
It held value. It even gained value over time as the economy grew. Everyone who held gold shared in that growth.
That's what money should do.
In the future, I think we'll see money backed by stocks. Productive businesses. Companies that actually create value.
Holding that money would mean investing in real productivity. Real growth.
But the Fed wants you stuck using their dollars. Dollars they create whenever they want. Dollars that lose value while you sleep.
See the problem?
They Can't Control What They Claim to Control
Here's something most people don't understand.
The Fed creates money, but they can't control where it goes or how fast.
The new money enters the economy at specific points. Then it spreads. Like ripples in a pond.
As it spreads, it changes prices. But not all at once. Not evenly.
Business owners see costs rising. They don't want to raise prices—they'll lose customers. So they wait. They hope things will stabilize.
But things never stabilize. Because the Fed keeps creating more money.
By the time everyone adjusts their prices, the Fed has already pumped out another round.
It's chaos. Permanent chaos.
And chaos is useful to them. It gives cover for their failures. It gives politicians excuses to grab more power.
You lose either way.
The Supply Chain Nightmare
Here's something that really matters.
When the Fed creates money, it doesn't hit everyone at the same time.
It travels through the economy. Through supply chains. Link by link.
Your supplier raises prices. You wait to see if you can absorb the cost. Eventually you can't. So you raise your prices. Your customers do the same.
By the time it filters down to you buying groceries? Prices have jumped.
And guess what? The Fed just printed another trillion.
You're always behind. Always catching up.
You never win this game.
What They Actually Owe You
Think about what the government is supposed to do.
Protect your rights. Secure your property. Let you live free.
The Fed does the opposite.
They take your right to stable money. They take your right to falling prices as productivity improves. They take your right to choose better options.
All gone.
Replaced by a system designed to enrich bankers and politicians.
At your expense.
Always at your expense.
What Should Happen (But Won't)
Congress should shut down the Fed's money-printing operation.
Today. Right now.
End the privilege to create money from nothing.
Short of that? The Fed should at least stop increasing the money supply. Keep it constant. Stop the theft.
But they won't do either.
Too much money at stake. Too much power to lose. Too many insiders getting rich.
So what do you do?
You take care of yourself.
Here's How You Fight Back
Buy assets they can't print.
Gold. Silver. Bitcoin. Real estate. Productive businesses. Stocks.
Get your wealth out of dollars. Get it into real value.
The Fed will keep printing. Count on it. Dollars will keep losing value. Count on that too.
Your choice is simple.
Stay in their system and watch your wealth evaporate.
Or move to real assets and actually build wealth.
I'm not asking what you should do. I'm telling you what I do.
History Is On Your Side
Freedom always wins in the end.
Always has. Always will.
People have fought revolutions over smaller injustices than the Fed's money printing scam.
History bends toward freedom. Freedom to choose. Freedom to build. Freedom to keep what you earn.
That includes the freedom to choose your own money.
The Fed wants to take that freedom away.
Don't let them.
Bottom Line
Let me make this crystal clear.
The Fed is a cartel. They create money from nothing. They push interest rates too low. They fund fake jobs with fake money.
Every day, they steal your purchasing power. They take your freedom to choose better money.
And they claim they're helping you.
It's the biggest con in American history.
Now you know the truth.
What do you do with this information? That's up to you.
But here's what I know. They're not going to stop printing money.
The question is: Are you going to keep holding it?
That's a decision only you can make.
Me? I made my decision years ago.
Maybe it's time you made yours.

P.S. STOP! Don't You DARE Buy Gold Right Now.
I don't care if gold is at $4,100. I don't care if everyone says it's going to $5,000. If you buy gold now, you're making a costly mistake. There's a smarter play that could hand you 11X the profits. But the window closes on December 10th when a government meeting changes everything.
