Peak Prosperity

With me is a dear friend, and an entrepreneur who has navigated his journey from buying video games in Alaska to mastering the intricate world of financial planning. Damian Lupo, someone who not only has profound views on our global monetary landscape but also brings to the table insights on a special type of retirement account – the EQRP. Are you ready to debunk some Wall Street myths and underst...

This Off the Cuff is being re-released to the public based on a number of requests to make this available for sharing with folks outside of the tribe. By presenting the woke argument in its strongest form (aka “steelmaning”) Peter Boghossian makes clear the dangers we’re facing. When two sides don’t share the same conceptual understanding of words, conversations can’t be had.

In today’s Finance U discussion, we delve into the disconcerting trend where global conflicts lead to market boons, challenging our moral compass. Amidst this backdrop, recent data reveals the third consecutive month of rising inflation, contradicting the hope of a tapering trend. The need to interpret these signals correctly for understanding our economic future is vital to building our resilienc...

If you want to understand how your future is going to be shaped by events, this is vital information. We cover the mega-bond bubble which is currently bursting creating all sorts of drama for over-leveraged countries, companies and individuals. Naturally, that leads to oil and energy as well as gold.

The US government needs to borrow another $2 trillion (or more) in 2024, but has just announced they will be buying their own debt back in 2024. What’s the real story here?

Families and individuals are being destroyed by inflation. It’s been the worst episode in the entire data series going back to the 1960’s. And it’s going to get worse now that wage inflation has entered the fray. Buckle up. Click Here for Part 2

Inflation is much worse than advertised. But you already know that if you’ve been in a grocery store at any point over the past year. But how much worse? Two to three times higher than the government typically reports. Ed Butowsky’s Chapwood Index is better, and easier to understand than the BLS statistical magicians.

Ever wondered about the pulse of the bond market? Or pondered which countries are in the lead when it comes to buying oil in these tumultuous times? Jim posits, and I think you’ll find this fascinating, that we’re operating in more of a unified world market than most of us are inclined to believe.

What happens when a country gets its energy policies badly wrong? Recessions, economic decline, ruined retirement dreams and things just generally get harder. Get ready for harder. Click Here for Part 2

This week on Off The Cuff Michael Gayed, CFA, and I discussed his views on the markets, the economy, and where they are headed. Michael thinks there’s a “credit event” coming that will shake it all up.

Context is everything. The US and especially the Deep State denizens of the US State Department are unable to grasp the recent history that has propelled many African nations to prefer partnership with Russia and/or China. Click Here for Part 2

John Lovell and I discuss his latest book, The Warrior Poet Way: A Guide to Living Free and Dying Well. I really bonded with John’s message because it invites us, especially men, to dig deeper and ask “what’s this all about?” Click Here for Part 2

This week’s Off The Cuff guest is none other than our special friend and truth warrior George Gammon. This public version runs for just over 32 minutes and we discuss everything we feel we can discuss out in public. Click Here for the Full Interview

Steven Flood, the CEO of GoldCore, shares with us the 5 big things he sees as shaping our economic and financial future. In this case, it remains to be seen if the trends are our friends, or not. Either way, these trends are destiny. Full disclosure, Peak Prosperity has an affiliate relationship with GoldCore and we personally use their amazing vaulting services and superior customer service. Peak...

The United States’ experiment with democracy is now officially over. It’s time to declare the experiment dead and make other arrangements. This is the conclusion I come to after witnessing the utter depravity of Democrats who attempted to censor RFK Jr from speaking at a Congressional Committee hearing on…censorship.

This week’s Off The Cuff (OTC) is special.  The guest is Peter St Onge and it’s special because of his crisp ability to communicate, his authentic desire to help people, and his cheerful good nature (despite the heaviness of the topics being discussed). Click Here for Part 2

What’s the biggest sign that economic trouble is on the way? That’s easy – the disappearance of low-cost energy. In part I (public) we cover the German experience with their self-inflicted wounds of depriving themselves of reliable, low-cost energy. It’s predictably bad. Click Here for Part 2

Welcome to another fascinating week on “Off the Cuff”. This time we’re taking a slightly different approach and splitting our show into two parts (one public, one for members), as there’s just so much ground to cover with our esteemed guest, Dr. Simon Goddek. He’s a man whose journey mirrors those of many within our tribe and is emblematic of the resilience and unyielding quest for truth that we s...

This week’s Off The Cuff is one of the more powerful and important ones that I’ve ever conducted. Again, we can help save lives by spreading actual, good, and useful information, while undercutting the deadly misinformation favored by the government and their pharma and food industry co-conspirators. It’s estimated that by the year 2030, one-in-three (!) people will be diagnosed with some form of...

Good day, everyone. Today we bring you this special Fourth of July edition of “Happening Now” where we’re taking a closer look at our beloved country in a segment I’ve titled “State of the Union.” Today’s Happening Now is being made available to you all in celebration of the 4th, and it’s a glimpse into the sort of discussions we engage in on a daily basis in our regular Happening Now’s, normally...

Childhood chronic illness in the US is simply terrible and the trend is increasing. What are the possible causes? There are many possibilities, but what’s not in question is that it’s something environmental and whatever it is impacting more and more children with every passing year. In this episode, I play the role of prosecuting attorney and you get to sit in the Grand Jury box. Do we have enoug...

I love framing things. This helps me see the world more clearly, and have a shot at accurately “predicting” the future. I put predicting in quotes, because it’s not really predicting, but rather seeing the direction of things and extrapolating from there. I think this is what George Orwell, et al., did. They simply understood the initial conditions (i.e. human nature) and then carried on traveling...

This is the last chapter in the Economic “E” of Crash Course 2.0. Not a very sexy title, I know, but together demographics and a profound failure to maintain and/or invest in the future puts the US way behind the eight ball. Both of these factors are going to be extraordinarily expensive over the coming years. Demographics because the US has already lost the ‘right’ pyramid shape of its population...

DEBT! This chapter is exceptionally important. Grasp this, and the future will be revealed. This chapter, all on its own, should motivate us all to take action, build resilience, and find our tribe. I created and am now recreating the Crash Course because I truly (desperately) want to help as many people as I can become more resilient and prepared. Once you understand debt, you understand how our...

If you can understand inflation, you have a shot at understanding how the world works, and where it’s heading economically. Unfortunately, inflation is almost never taught properly in schools, if at all, and it’s mischaracterized in the press, over and over again. Click Here for Part 2
