Sovereign Man

If you’re a long term reader of Sovereign Man, you’ll know that my favorite thing each year is our Liberty & Entrepreneurship Camp in Lithuania. For 5 days we bring together 50 up and coming entrepreneurs from all over the world, along with some of the most successful and smartest guys I know. We teach them about business, entrepreneurship and what it takes to be successful. I look forward to this camp all year long, and in today’s podcast I want to tell you all about it. However, I don’t just want to tell you about the details of the camp. I want to share with you some of the lessons that we taught the students that will be tremendously helpful for you as well. Some of our students said that these lessons were more important than anything they learned in 4 years of college. Sit back, enjoy, and prepare to be inspired.

Ukraine: I can already see it on the street; so many businesses have closed. Hopeless unemployed youths are now roaming the city or joining the war effort. And the entire populace has been mobilized to support the fight. Of course, it’s pretty damn easy to cheer on the bloodshed when it’s not your blood. War can seem glorious when you only have to read about it in the newspapers. There’s so much more I need to tell you about—the only way for me to capture this was in another podcast, probably the most emotional I’ve ever done.

Looking back over the past ten years, I can’t even begin to describe all the experiences I’ve had in Ukraine. For a while, I actually owned a business based here. I’ve been travelling here frequently for years. I still have many friends here. Some of our employees are based here. And Kiev is one of the cities in the world that I know best. Yet even after all of that, I still can’t make heads or tails of this place.

Russians aren't exactly known for having a great sense of humor. But the language is full of bizarre, often hilarious expressions like "perebrasyvanie kakashkami". Literally translated this means "throwing shit". And it applies right about now—when a bunch of people is standing around blaming one another for something that has gone heinously wrong. "Heinously wrong" is somewhat of an understatement.

China is set to surpass the US in a matter of months. And this shift of wealth and power is, by far, the biggest story of our time. Let’s explore this together in today’s Podcast episode. We’ll go back in time and talk about ancient cities, kings and queens, grand palaces, epic battles, and major crises... real Game of Thrones stuff.

Henry Ford once said, "It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." He was right about at least one thing-- it's true that hardly anyone on the planet really understands the monetary system... or the way that central bankers manipulate the entire global economy.

This podcast features a very special guest. A close friend. One of the most talented real estate investors I know. And someone who I respect beyond measure. J Massey. For the last two years, I brought J to Lithuania to our annual Liberty & Entrepreneurship camp where we teach up and coming entrepreneurs about business, investing, and success. I only bring the best of the best to this camp, and J is definitely in that category. Now, I’m bringing him to you in this podcast. J has owned more than 100 pieces of real estate, so if you’re interested in making money through real estate, or just thinking about buying a new home, then grab a pen and a piece of paper and take some notes. You’re not going to want to miss what J has to say. J has put together a special offer for his book that you can access here.

Last week in the Land of the Free, I heard a radio campaign ad for a local political candidate while in Texas. In the ad, he was talking about the debt and excessive government spending. And then he said something along the lines of, "We need to get this under control before America goes bankrupt." 'Buddy,' I remember thinking, 'America isn't going bankrupt. It already IS bankrupt.'

I'm here in the Land of the Free, in New York City. And just as I was wondering what I would say to a high-ranking US politician if they asked me for advice on how to destroy their financial system, Joe Biden's limousine arrived at my hotel accompanied by small army of secret service agents. Alas, he hasn't yet sought me out for my input but if he did want to know how to destroy the US financial system here's what I would tell him:

In this episode of our podcast, I want to share a story about a pretty nasty car accident I was in a few days ago.

For our second Sovereign Man podcast, I'm pleased to bring along a special guest-- my friend Peter Schiff, who I've just spent the last week with darting around the Caribbean. In today's podcast, Peter and I focus on gold: why you should own it, and what's happening in the marketplace right now. If you know anything about Peter, you can probably already tell that this edition will be highly entertaining. Peter and I were both speakers at an investment conference that I'll tell you about. And while I generally turn down all the speaking invitations I receive, this event was really great, and I'm glad I went.

There's a lot going on in the world and sometimes it's just too hard to capture everything in a 500 word missive. In our first podcast episode, we cover a range of topics from the Sovereign Man worldview and the deteriorating personal freedom in America to telling examples from history, and give some very timely advice that rational thinking people ought to be considering right now. I encourage you to download it, put it on your mobile device and listen to it at the gym, in the car, and share it with your friends, and also feel free to let us know what you think. You'll find it on iTunes as well in the very near future, along with more exciting episodes.
