I AM THE REVOLUTION and it won't be televised. My journey begins as a vagabond...

in #introducemyself7 years ago (edited)

Hey you beautiful followers I have unplugged from the matrix by putting 'all my eggs in one basket' off grid in a new immutable extremely well governed audit technology called blockchain supported by a protocol token called bitcoin.

So far have been handsomely rewarded with portfolio up 700% in 16 months. So I pulled all inflationary (fiat) money out and sold all assets and moved to: computer money or Internet money as some call it. I am furiously mad at the system (governments and corporations) for ripping people off via inflation and monopolies and I am fighting back hard as I am the revolution, shop local and use global community money!

Before cashing it out and building a home I am going to gift much of my stuff and put the rest into storage on land I bought and go live within my means (hoping to never work again) on an early pension of $750.00 CAD per month. I am jumping into my 1985 VW Camper Van and traveling North America whereas I should only need communication, food and gas:

BEFORE BUFFING, did someone pee on the tire?

AFTER BUFFING

...and will drive from Vancouver BC to Florida. Hopefully there is a ferry from Key West Florida that can handle the VW for a Cuba excursion. If not I may fly from there. I will be blogging my trip on Steemit (not Reddit or Facebook) as Reddit and FB censor my writings and Steemit is on a blockchain owned by the community and they can't censor without great effort. I will be showing pictures of my visits, updating on how the computer money is doing, talking global monetary policy which may include politics – yuk eh. Go Trump*. Please follow my adventure! I am not a financial advisor, so I caution all, but I am 35 year experienced expert on global finance and hobby in information technology. Should you choose to comment please be researched, out of respect of others, and if not at least read some of my writings evidenced with links on the blog.

I gave notice at my place for August 1st and saying good-bye to all my new Nelson BC friends – it has been almost two years now!

NELSON BC

I am on what could be a few year journey to find a new home which may end up being back in the Kootenay.

I am pimping out my VW Van named: Jenny Freedom (adventure) DJ Vanagon, by refurbishing her to new with a bit of bastardization which includes 12 speakers, UV activated painting, curtains and bedding.

My trip will include the 2017 burning man music festival.

POLITICS: please skip this part if not interested in the survival of mankind...
*MR TRUMP

The economic world you live in as I see it:

I look at the world from an accounting perspective. Once you cannot pay your bills anymore you are usually called bankrupt from a generally accepted accounting principle. In 2008, the bankers called each other out and froze overnight lending for 30 days in September. They then picked Lehman and Bear to be liquidated. The US gov't was called in to provide $700B+ of liquidity to save AIG the insurer of those two banks and also to pass the new money around to save all the others affected by not being paid what was owed by the failed enterprises. Ever since that day the USA, Japan and EU have printed money. For the first 4 years was the US then the day after they stopped Japan started printing $80B US equivalent monthly but within 2 years that proved not enough and the EU joined the printing ever since. Currently, both printing at least $200B+ per month. Some reports at $400B per month. Now Trump wants to spend $1-1.5 Trillion on infrastructure on top of spending $.5-1 Trillion they are short on every year. Add to that the .5% interest rate hike that will effect the $20 Trillion in debt interest costs. That could add around $.5 Trillion in expense cost per year. So all in all I see $1-3 Trillion USA dollar short fall over the next 1-1.5 years. I simply call that bankrupt! So now we have Trump running things. My bias is I like that a lot. He understands BANKRUPTCY very much or as he would say very very much. He also has added two important liquidators to his team:

Secretary Treasurer:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Mnuchin

In 2009, a group led by Mnuchin bought California-based residential lender IndyMac, which had been in RECEIVERSHIP by the FDIC and owned $23.5 billion in commercial loans, mortgages, and mortgage-backed securities. After purchasing IndyMac, renamed OneWest Bank, Mnuchin served as CEO and chairman. OneWest then bought several other FAILED banks including First Federal Bank of California in 2009 and La Jolla Bank in 2010. Furthermore, OneWest bought a portfolio belonging to Citi Holdings for $1.4 billion. OneWest was profitable one year after Mnuchin had bought it, and it became the largest bank of Southern California, with assets worth $27 billion. Criticism for aggressive foreclosure practices. OneWest was criticized for AGGRESSIVELY FORECLOSING on homeowners.

Secretary of Commerce:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilbur_Ross
He specializes in LEVERAGED BUYOUTS AND DISTRESSED BUSINESSES. As of February 2017, Forbes magazine has reported that Ross has a net worth of $2.5 billion. Ross is known as the "King of Bankruptcy" for his experience in buying BANKRUPT companies, primarily in the manufacturing and steel industries, and later selling them for a large profit after operations improve.

Obama a black man rose up to the most powerful office in the world yet was still a SLAVE to the bankers. The fundamental difference between the Bush, Clinton and Obama administrations is they all listened to the bankers but Trump believes he is the boss of the IMF, World Bank, Council on Foreign Relations and maybe even the UN!

Heads up folks keep your chin up high and a smile on your face and may the sun shine on you forever with the best of luck. Peace be with you!

Great post, genuine.

Great post. I hope you have a good trip and keep documenting, I will be following your adventures. I live in Florida and it's very hot right now, so be prepared.

Hey greenman, nice to hear you found some success on your journey, i wish you the best for the next months ;) Go you way and deal with the game they are calling life ;)

And please, if you dont need it anymore, give me the VW :D

Haha cool name on the VW! Looks awesome in brown haven't seen that colour before on a camper.

Yes, that is original paint. DJ Vanagon - I will be producing a set and debuting at the VW theme camp burning man 2017.

Burning man looks narly! Ship her over to the UK and come to Glastonbury! VW camper heaven!

Do you have a driveway I can park in?

It's a huge festival in a field! 😃

...okay cool.

Definitely following, excited to see where your journey takes you. Doing something similar is definitely in my future one day.

Good luck : )

Good luck on your travels too Justin Scott.

You as well my friend, thanks for the love!

Welcome here greenman! Nice, we will take this journey together ;)

Thats a badass van, i love it!
I have to question its ability to make it from canada to florida though...

Thx generantion.easy it has a rebuilt 1.9L (1900cc) with around 30-40K kilometers on it she runs like a top but a bit too slop up hill so I have ordered and Jenny has an appointment next week for all new: 2.5L Subaru (2500cc) engine complete with gear box, 5 speed transmission and disc brakes. Refurbishing to new.

Damn, So shes ready to go!
I guess it must be if your putting your faith in a 30yr old van to travel some 3000 miles...
You must be pretty handy with vehicles, you doing all the mechanic work yourself?

...I am very handy with my hands but Jenny the DJ Vanagon is getting expert hands currently as most work being farmed out with state of the art technology like her auxiliary battery and solar panels.

Lol, solor panels... u being serious?
Anyways
So originaly i skipped the second half, thought you were going to trump bash. But wow, you really broke it down how extreemly bankrupt the world is becoming... i never realized how many extra billions were being added each month.
Compared to crypto, bitcoin has an extreemly low printing rate. I guess i never fully realized that
Cool article, you should craft up more

Wow, thats a good article. Your a well spoken writer and im working on checking some of your others out.
I suggest you re-post some of those. 8months ago was an entirely different platform, i think you could really do well here

Yes, serious about solar will be putting 3x100watt light flexible panels with new tech 30 pound lithium iron phosphate equivalent to 200 pound 200amp hr lead acid battery pack.

great post, I hope it will touch the sleeping brain of people.
Me personally,I can not stop working, too bad for me xd
"olala mini skirt"
Good luck

Wow, you really wrote a lot. I like people putting their energy in the things i do, so i will continue supporting you. Do you have any predictions about cryptocurrenzy? If i would ask you the question, invest today into crypto with only thousand euro, would you be a millionaire in a several years? what do you think

Wou, enjoy travelling, I was thinking before to do a similar thing, also about moving all my assets to crypto actually, Im excited about your next posts

The color of your 1985 VW Camper Van looks like yummy chocolate :)
@greenman, do you travel there alone or with someone??

I travel alone for now. Looking for my next partner in crime during my travels.

burning man festival sounds promising.
8 days of total freedom, creativity and self-expression.

portfolio up 700% in 16 months
