Marc Faber says stay in one country, keep your wealth in another and hold a pass port of a third country. Makes eminent sense for those who can afford it, coz there is no limit to idiocy of the banksters.
Banks are now getting politicians to write into law that FDIC will cover their gambling bets in the derivative market.
As you probably know, the derivative market is a market based on leveraged bets. For every point some bet goes down, the loss is magnified 10 to 100 fold.
It might be a good idea to get at least some of your money out of the bank and keep it in physical cash.
Keep at least 25% on hand in notes.
These cocksuc&kers are going to run this thing into the ground from the looks of it.
Or maybe the govt will help rig the market to make it look like the banks "earned" profits. Either way someone is going to get screwed big time.
