In this video, I take you through examples in history of what hard money was and is. We also look at examples of overprinting in ancient times and how money can raise an empire or destroy an empire. Every successful empire adapted to new forms of a medium of exchange ended up becoming a powerhouse in their region as early adaptors.
We then look at our modern time to see if much has changed from our ancient past as we explore how money shapes us in our model lives, how the financial system of 2008 affected us, how the pandemic of 2020 affected us, and how our modern society is resembling similarities to that of the collapse of the Roman Empire.
How we escape the coming financial collapse and how a revolution is coming that will pit the common man against the elites. Ultimately everything falls back and resets to hard money - it's a painful journey.
