To See The Future, Put On Your Energy Goggles

I love framing things. This helps me see the world more clearly, and have a shot at accurately “predicting” the future. I put predicting in quotes, because it’s not really predicting, but rather seeing the direction of things and extrapolating from there. I think this is what George Orwell, et al., did. They simply understood…

Crash Course 2: Chapter 6 — Demographics & Infrastructure

This is the last chapter in the Economic “E” of Crash Course 2.0.

Shift Happens! When? In 2025

PREVIEW

In this report, I make the case that we’ve really only got until 2025 before the economy and all things financial take a turn for the worse.

Chapter 5 – DEBT!

DEBT! This chapter is exceptionally important. Grasp this, and the future will be revealed. This chapter, all on its own, should motivate us all to take action, build resilience, and find our tribe. I created and am now recreating the Crash Course because I truly (desperately) want to help as many people as I can…
