<h2><b>CONCLUSION</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">It was a pure pleasure conducting this interview with Doug Casey, someone I have looked up to for a long time and, in recent years, have grown to know even better as a friend and mentor.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400">As we discussed in the episode, many of Doug’s predictions from our first conversation six years ago have, in fact, come true, and we would all be wise to listen to what he foresees in 2024 and beyond. </span></p>

This is a conversation that I was originally a part of this year’s Expat Money Summit, and I wanted to share it with you today to give you a taste of the sort of exclusive content I bring to the Summit every year. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Peter Schiff is someone who I have followed for years, and I think he brought tremendous value to the Summit with this conversation. Enjoy!</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><b>TODAY&#8217;S CONVERSATION WITH PETER SCHIFF</b></h2>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Listen to Peter’s take on the most recent trends in the price of gold and how it’s affected by inflation and government deficit spending.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Hear Peter’s early 2024 election predictions and what it will mean for the U.S. and global economy.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Find out why Peter fears what I have been saying all along &#8211; that when the crisis hits, the government will make it </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400">very difficult </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400">for Americans to escape. This is why I always emphasize acting </span><b>now! </b></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Listen to Peter detail why </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400">failing prices, </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400">aka deflation, can lead to companies making </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400">more money</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400">, contrary to the popular opinion of many ‘mainstream’ economists. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">If you think the headlines showing 20% inflation looks bad, wait until you hear Peter’s breakdown of what sort of inflation we’ve </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400">really </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400">experienced in the last few years.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Find out why Peter believes the banks are currently </span><b>in worse shape </b><span style="font-weight: 400">than they were during the 2008 crisis.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Will the Federal Reserve continue to attempt to fight inflation or just let the banks fail? Hear Peter break down this </span><b>no-win situation. </b></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Hear Peter’s thoughts on why he didn’t get any mention in the film </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400">The Big Short </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400">for predicting the 2008 crisis. I had never heard him talk about this before!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Find out Peter&#8217;s thoughts on some important topics like CBDCs, and a potential gold-backed BRICS currency. </span></li>
<li>Lastly, you won&#8217;t want to miss Peter&#8217;s predictions on what&#8217;s to come in 2024 &#8211; and how you can best prepare.</li>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><b>CONCLUSION</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">It was so great to finally speak to Peter Schiff and have him as a speaker at the Expat Money Summit. I have been following his work for years, and I’m so glad I was able to share this important discussion with everyone who attended the Summit and now with you all here today if you missed it then. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Peter’s message echoes what I have been saying for years &#8211; the time to act to protect your wealth from the financial crisis that is unfolding is yesterday. Whether it’s getting your money into offshore investments or starting the process of acquiring a second passport, it’s essential to stop waiting around and take action. Those who do so will certainly be in a better position in the years ahead than those who sit around doom-scrolling all day. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Until next time, I’ll see you all back here next Wednesday!</span></p>

<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Hear Addison detail how his background in philosophy led him on an unexpected path that found him publishing books and a newsletter on finance.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Listen to Addison explain how the Federal Reserve’s money supply manipulations have led to recent bubbles in cryptocurrency, marijuana and AI-related equities.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Learn how Addison was “early, but not wrong,” about the current economic situation and why timing is the most challenging part of financial forecasting.  </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Get Addison’s take on why we haven’t yet seen the great big global economic meltdown. Just what is holding things back from a collapse?</span></li>

<h2><b>CONCLUSION</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">It was great getting Addison’s perspective on everything going on with the looming global financial crisis and the march toward war.

<h2><b>TODAY&#8217;S CONVERSATION WITH JOHNNY PROFITA</b></h2>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Listen to Johnny recount how he “fell into” the world of finance as someone for whom math ”wasn’t one of his strong points” &#8211; with a degree in </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400">history,</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400"> not finance!</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Hear Johny lay out some of his rules for trading, most of which he had to learn the hard way &#8211; by making costly mistakes.  </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Johnny and I discuss the difficult but necessary task of removing feelings and emotions from the trading process. </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">I recall how some of the lessons I learned myself the hard way by losing money </span><span style="font-weight: 400">in my options trading days.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Johnny explains his motto for trading: &#8220;1% day keeps the 9 to 5 away.”</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Hear Johnny describe the </span><b>disturbing trend</b><span style="font-weight: 400"> with IPOs over the last couple of decades which has seen many retail traders left holding the bag. </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Johnny and I discuss the outlook for new traders looking to enter the market now, as high-interest rates have put an end to the flow of free money.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Will the dollar remain the world’s reserve currency for much longer? Johnny gives his prediction of what’s in store for the world’s currency markets. </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">We discuss the fine line between being prepared for what is going to happen economically without acting like “The End” is always around the corner. </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400"><span style="font-weight: 400">Lastly, Johnny highlights the sharp increase in happiness he has found since leaving his “abusive relationship” with Chicago and starting a new life in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.</span></li>

<h2><b>CONCLUSION</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">What I had first planned as a conversation about Mexico turned into an important conversation about the nature of trading and how to avoid many of the same mistakes Johnny and I have made in our own time. Once the conversation turned to Johnny’s experience on this, I just had to dig in deeper, as it’s a topic we haven’t covered extensively on the show yet.</span></p>
<p>See you next Wednesday!</p>
