Personal Finance, Investing Advice: Gold/Silver, Bitcoin/Stocks, Food/Real Estate, Survival/Wealth
Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
If you were thirty years old again and starting your journey to build wealth, the speaker suggests establishing a foundation in precious metals like gold and silver, viewing them as essential assets that lock in value without disappearing overnight. While stocks would be selected carefully for long-term holding, the approach to cryptocurrency like Bitcoin would be more cautious, involving only small amounts with an intention to trade rather than hold indefinitely. The core philosophy emphasizes diversification across different asset classes, ensuring that a portion of one's portfolio remains in tangible goods and cash reserves to maintain liquidity if economic systems face instability.
Beyond financial assets, the advice shifts heavily toward practical survival preparedness and community building. A prudent individual should maintain a significant stockpile of non-perishable food items such as rice, beans, and pasta, alongside essential medicines and salt, recognizing that these commodities could become more valuable than traditional currency in a crisis. Furthermore, cultivating a network of honorable and trustworthy people is presented as one of the best investments one can make, while simultaneously cutting ties with family members who drain resources rather than contribute to collective security. This strategy relies on having reliable community support to navigate potential societal collapses or emergencies effectively.
When considering real estate, the speaker advises extreme caution regarding government regulations and zoning laws that could suddenly render properties uninsurable or subject to seizure. Ideally, one should own land outright in locations with access to clean water and fertile soil, preferably in areas without strict building codes or where local governments cannot arbitrarily reclassify zones as high-risk for fires or floods. If buying a home is not feasible due to these risks, renting in such unstable jurisdictions might be the safer option, provided there is a plan to generate multiple streams of income to cover daily expenses regardless of employment status.
Finally, the transcript concludes with recommendations on acquiring tangible survival tools and skills to ensure self-sufficiency. Essential equipment includes a stand-up freezer stocked with meat, a wood stove, a generator paired with solar panels, and large canisters of fuel for cooking when grid power fails. The speaker also stresses the importance of learning how to garden and grow one's own food, noting that spices and herbs could become as precious as gold in an apocalyptic scenario. By combining financial prudence with robust physical preparedness and a strong community network, individuals can better protect their wealth and ensure their survival against various unforeseen challenges.

I'm kind of confused. If you were 30
again, working and
starting to build wealth, would you buy
a house or keep renting? Stocks or
crypto? Precious metals? Just maybe
general advice guidelines. I'm curious.
Confused. What would I do? So, let me
let me read this again. This is
uh
investing
question here, right? So, Confused is
asking, if you were 30 again, working
and starting to build wealth, would you
buy a house or keep renting? Stocks or
crypto? Precious metals? Just maybe
general advice guidelines. I'm curious.
Um
For sure, I'd be buying precious metals.
That's your foundation. That's
wealth that you have you're locking in,
right? It might not move huge, but it's
locked in, right? So, it's not going to
disappear overnight, right?
So, you got to have a certain amount of
precious metals.
There are certain types of stocks I
would buy.
I would not Maybe I would throw a little
bit into Bitcoin.
Maybe, because it might do a pop. They
might push it up, but I'd be keeping an
eye on it and be trading it. I wouldn't
be holding it long-term.
Okay.
As far as renting, if I was living in a
place where I didn't have a land, I
would rent, right?
If I wanted to buy a property, I would
make sure I'm buying property where it's
got
good water, amazing water, access to
water, preferably an aquifer. Maybe
um
uh
what do you call it? Springs. Okay, so
it would have to have access to good
water and it would have to have good
soil. It would have to be in a place,
preferably, that doesn't have building
code. And we have places in BC where
there is no building code, right? You
can buy a a in an island where there's
no building code. You can build whatever
the [ __ ] you want, right?
So, preferably it it's not a necessity,
but it's definitely
uh
icing on the cake.
Where there is no building code,
preferably no police in the town area
where you're where you're buying,
okay?
Um
What else? What else? Uh what was the
other stuff? Renting, wealth, building
wealth.
Uh I would have a certain amount of
money
cash on hand because if the system goes
down, you can still pay
rent and stuff. I would buy a stand-up
freezer,
full of fill it full of meat.
Okay. I would have
uh
a room set up where I I would have
non-perishables,
rice, beans, pasta,
uh
dried goods, food specifically, okay?
So, you would have
a certain amount of space dedicated, and
we're not talking a few hundred bucks,
we're talking a few thousand dollars
worth of food stored away that you can
access on a regular basis.
You would have a certain amount of
um
medicines on hand because most medicines
are made in India, China, most a lot of
it comes from India. So, some of the
essentials including Ivermectin, okay?
Stored away.
Um ba ba ba ba ba. I would build
community up the yin yang, make
connections with people that understand
what the hell is going on, that you can
rely on, that have
that are honorable, really.
You have to have honorable people
around you
in your community, okay?
There's got to be people that you trust
that have your back.
I'm not [ __ ] with you. Community
would be one of the best places you can
invest in.
Family, for sure, take care of family,
but make sure
if you have certain
uh members of your family that are
leeching off you,
you cut them off.
Um
I would have
I keep on saying this.
Three sources of revenue. If you only
have one source of revenue, work on
building a second. It doesn't have to be
a lot. It has to be enough to be able to
uh cover some of your daily expenses.
Once you have the second one built,
build a third one. Okay. I would also
buy tangible goods.
Okay.
For me, it's collectibles, human
artifacts, right? So, certain amount of
funds in human artifacts. So,
to recap,
gold, silver, precious metals, certain
stocks, certain stocks. And we talk
about this in our Matrix server. You're
confused. If you're not on our Matrix
server, join our Matrix server, and
there's a personal finance investing
room, and we talk about what we're
investing in long term, and what we
might be trading. There are times where
I do a lot of trading. In the last
couple of weeks, I've been doing a lot
of trading. Buying calls and puts on
certain things.
Been doing pretty good. In the last
month, my portfolio was up over 30%,
right? Through trading, but there's a
core
core stocks that I have. If they pop a
lot, I go all liquid. I go all cash,
right? So, there's trading that we do
there.
Um
Land, only if it's got access to good
water and good soil, preferably no
building code, preferably no government
that can [ __ ] you up with the
regulations, right? So, for example, in
BC,
the BC government has come out and said
they're going to hand over a [ __ ] ton of
land to the indigenous population,
right? To the First Nations. So, all of
the sudden, if you had land, if you had
a home on this land, it's no longer your
home. You don't own that land no more,
right? So, make sure that's not
happening. The government has also come
out and they start
creating
areas that didn't used to be high-risk
areas, and all of the sudden they make
them high-risk areas for fire, for
flood, for whatever the [ __ ] the
bureaucrats decide on. All of the
sudden, you might not be able to get
insurance on your property. So, if you
can't get insurance on your property, if
you have
a mortgage on that property, the bank
will not renew that mortgage. All of the
sudden, they're going to call your
mortgage. Now, you got to sell at
whatever price you can get for it. So,
all of the sudden, you might go in debt,
right? So, if you're going to buy
property, preferably buy it out right.
So, you might not need insurance on your
property. If you don't have a mortgage,
you don't need insurance.
Per- You should get insurance, but if
you can't get insurance because the
[ __ ] bureaucrats all of the sudden
drew a line and said you're in a
high-risk area,
then no bank is going to give you
insurance. No insurance company is going
to give you insurance. And if they're
going to give you insurance, it's going
to cost you like
five times what it used to cost you,
right? So, those are the things you have
to consider. So, basically, protect your
ass from government and bureaucrats
is the name of the game when it comes to
investing, and have three sources of
revenue.
Okay, minimum. Minimum.
Uh Hamburglar on Rumble. I'm surprised
how long uh garlic and onion powder
last. Yeah, yeah, long time. Uh beans
and rice and all that jazz. It has saved
my ass a few times. Food should never be
bland. Food should never be bland. And
salt, get salt. Right? Make sure you
have salt.
Ouch my junk. A wood stove and a
generator if possible. A wood stove and
a generator if possible. Solar panel,
battery. Okay, we have a battery. We
have
two
filled canisters of gas here for
barbecue.
Right? We went and filled them up. They
weren't empty, but we went and topped
them up
2 weeks ago. Right? So, two canisters of
the big gas things.
Got the barbecue, so we can
make you know, we have a freezer.
Uh well, we actually gone through half
of the freezer. We're going to fill it
up again.
Uh of meat that we can cook. Right? So,
whatever you need to be able to cook
your food.
Right? Whatever you need to cook your
food. What's something you need to
filter water if you don't have access to
good water.
Okay?
Ouch my junk. I just bought a Jackery
generator with a solar panel attached a
few months ago. Very nice, Ouch my junk.

location. Yeah, small house in the right
location.

new gold in the apocalypse world. Yeah.
