The Smiling Face of Censorship

Since when could a bank get political? [The Daily FWD] July 21, 2023 [UNSUBSCRIBE]( The Smiling Face of Censorship Good Morning Reader, Happy Friday! Every week, our experts all get together to exchange ideas. We also try to take some time on Fridays to answer some of your pressing questions. We didn’t have many this week. But we still want to hear from you to make sure the Daily FWD is the best product it can be. You see, each of our analysts have a different background and specialty. And combined, we hold over 100 years of banking and investing experience. But they all share two commonalities: a strong knowledge in their area of expertise and a boots-on-the-ground investment philosophy. And no matter what expertise they were focusing on throughout the years, we always have tried to keep the focus on what’s most important — you, our reader. Our goal at the Daily FWD is to help you connect the dots between your bank account, the markets and decisions made in Washington and elsewhere around the world. And to make sure we meet that goal, we want to check in with you to see how you’re actually doing! So if you could do us a favor and take this survey, all of us here at the Daily FWD would really appreciate it. It shouldn’t take more than a few minutes… but it could greatly improve your experience as a Daily FWD reader… [Click Here Now to Take the Survey]( And please feel free to be completely honest. The good and the bad, our experts just want your input! We did receive one question from our reader Howie. He asked, “What am I to expect When the Biden Bucks are fully instituted since all of our income is from the federal government ie: Military retirement, Military Disability and Social security?” Here’s what Jim Rickards had to say… [Jim Rickards] JIM RICKARDS Are CBDCs a Threat to My Government Benefits? You will still be paid what you are due… to not allow you to collect what is legally owed to you would be illegal. CBDCs are still dollars even though they are digital and recorded on a ledger controlled by the government. The real problem with CBDCs is that they allow government total surveillance of all of your activities and preferences. In principle, government confiscation would have to be based on some violation and you would still be entitled to due process of law. But, if the government does decide to confiscate or freeze property, the CBDC format makes that much easier and faster. Also, it’s getting more difficult to depend on due process of law because there have been so many violations of due process by the Biden administration and the Merrick Garland Department of Justice. Physical gold and silver in safe storage are much more difficult to locate, track and freeze than CBDCs. It’s a way to level the playing field in the face of weaponized law enforcement. Gold or silver should be held in physical bullion form including 1-kilo bars, one-ounce coins and, in the case of gold, ¼ ounce coins (8 grams), that are minted based on the size of the original British gold sovereign. The best liquid alternatives are U.S. Treasury bills in short-term maturities of one-month to six-months, and gold or silver. The Treasury bills can be held in a brokerage account where customer funds and securities are segregated from proprietary positions. Even if the broker fails, the customer accounts should be moved smoothly to another solvent broker. [Jim Rickards] Jim Rickards As if we needed any more threats to your hard-earned money, there’s another crisis looming on the horizon that needs your attention. With Putin invading Ukraine… rising tensions with China… Inflation, recession, supply chain issues and the potential for greater violence breaking out all over the world. The money is beginning to fail. And if you aren’t prepared…you’re going to get caught in the crossfire. That’s why Jim recorded [this message]( directly from Pentagon City — to warn you about what’s coming and tell you what you need to do to get ready. Because with the fate of the U.S. economy hanging by a single thread and global war being fought over the U.S. dollar as we speak… We could be witnessing the beginning of the end of the world monetary order.
