All right, cash and banking. I listened to your podcast today and about money,
how it's just a number while relating to paychecks.
I couldn't agree more that they are intentionally phasing out cash, period.
Every payday, I go to the bank and I take out all of my cash except what is
needed to cover my bills and the bank people look at me like I'm an idiot.
On a regular basis, I walk out of there with seven to eight grand in cash at
least once or twice a month.
And they actually interrogate me about why I'm taking all my money out of the
bank and how come I don't need my money in the bank.
All my friends think I'm a conspiracy theorist because I buy silver by the
pound and other precious metals.
Dude, you need to shut up. Stop telling your friends that you do this shit.
You're opening yourself up to get robbed. All right.
Just act like you're just taking everything down to the fucking bank.
Why are you telling me this? All right. All my friends think I'm a conspiracy
theorist by silver.
I refuse to keep money in the bank.
And if we ever go into a Great Depression and the government collapses, they're
going to seize everybody's money in the bank accounts guaranteed.
So I'll keep all my cash hidden at home, which if the currency crashes, really,
in the end, it doesn't do me any good because it won't be worth shit.
But I don't like the government to know how much money I have at any given
moment.
I think it's a good practice. So, yeah, I think people should take their money
out of the bank every payday.
Actual physical money and dollar bills. Plus, when I have the cash in my hand
and I run out of it, there's no way I can spend more than I have.
I also don't believe in credit cards. Everything I bought was with cash, even
cars.
Thirty thousand dollar cars bought with cash. It may throw up a few red flags,
but fuck them.
No, it doesn't. Not if you're, you know, not if you're if you're paying taxes
on all.
Once you deposit it in the bank, there's a record of it.
And I think the banks want to know what you're doing with it.
They always want to know what you're doing with your money because they want to
make money off your money.
So what you do every week by giving them money is you give them an interest
free loan on their money.
I guess they give you a couple of points interest.
They provide the service of keeping your money safe, allegedly, even though
they're a bunch of crooks.
And then they load it, loan it out to your fellow countrymen at super high
rates.
And, you know, this is nothing, too.
If you put seven, eight grand in there, they can loan seven, eight thousand.
They can 100 percent loan out all that money.
Like, I don't know, like times three or some some shit.
It's crazy. Back in the day, like when you ran a bank responsibly,
what it say if you had 10 grand in the bank, you could only loan out like there
was a certain percentage you couldn't go past.
Like 30 percent. I can't remember what it was, but, you know, so the money was
still there.
And then the bankers, through paying off politicians, kept getting that money,
that number, the percentage bumped up and up and up and up.
And they kept getting more and more deregulated, more and more deregulated.
Now, when you put the money in, they can loan it.
You put a thousand in, they can loan.
They can loan out not only 100 percent of that thousand.
They can loan like another three thousand dollar off of that thousand thousand
for you, you, you and you.
So they basically counterfeited like three grand as far as the shit that I've
read.
And I haven't looked that stuff up for a while.
Things might have changed after 2008, but it's it's a pretty shady thing.
But I will tell you, I don't feel comfortable having a bunch of cash in the
fucking house.
You know, I always hear the first 48 playing in my head.
So, you know, good luck to you.
You know what I did after a while?
I just tapped out a conspiracy theory.
I got a fucking dog.
I watch sports and I just I'm just I take comfort knowing that I can only die
once.
That's what I do.
All right.
