\n
The book also explains how the elite use various crises and events to advance their agenda, such as wars, pandemics, terrorism, climate change, social unrest, cyberattacks, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
These are used to create fear and panic among the masses and to justify more centralization, regulation, taxation, surveillance, censorship, militarization, and globalization. The ultimate goal is to create a one-world government that will have total control over all aspects of human life.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
The book warns that we are approaching the final stage of this plan, which the author calls “The Great Taking”. This is when the elite will trigger a massive financial collapse that will wipe out all the paper wealth and debt in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
The only thing that will remain is the real assets that they own or have liens on. They will then use their legal authority and military force to seize all these assets from their rightful owners and claim them as their own. The result will be a feudal system where the elite will own everything and everyone else will be reduced to serfs or slaves.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
The book is not only a wake-up call, but also a call to action. The author urges us to resist this evil scheme by exposing it, educating ourselves and others, organizing and mobilizing, reclaiming our sovereignty and rights, creating alternative systems of money and exchange, supporting local communities and businesses, protecting our assets and resources, and preparing for any possible scenario.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
He also offers some hope and optimism that we can overcome this challenge if we unite and act together.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
As a real estate investor, I found this book very relevant and alarming for our future prospects. The book explains how the elite are targeting real estate as one of the main sources of collateral that they want to take over. The book warns that real estate investors will face increasing challenges and risks in the coming years, such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n- Higher taxes and fees on property ownership and transactions<\/span><\/li>\n
- More regulations and restrictions on land use and development<\/span><\/li>\n
- More environmental and social obligations and liabilities<\/span><\/li>\n
- More vulnerability to cyberattacks and digital theft<\/span><\/li>\n
- More exposure to legal actions and lawsuits<\/span><\/li>\n
- More competition from government-backed entities and corporations<\/span><\/li>\n
- More uncertainty and volatility in the market<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The book also advises real estate investors on how to protect themselves and their assets from the great taking. The book suggests some strategies such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n- Diversifying your portfolio across different asset classes and jurisdictions<\/span><\/li>\n
- Reducing your debt and leverage levels<\/span><\/li>\n
- Holding some physical gold and silver as a hedge against inflation and currency devaluation<\/span><\/li>\n
- Using offshore structures and trusts to shield your assets from confiscation<\/span><\/li>\n
- Seeking alternative sources of income and cash flow<\/span><\/li>\n
- Networking with like-minded investors and professionals<\/span><\/li>\n
- Educating yourself and others about the great taking and its implications<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
\n
If you are interested in learning more about this topic, there are some other books that I can recommend. Some of them are:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n- “New World Order” by Gary Allen, exposes the secretive global elite dedicated to the eradication of the sovereignty of the world’s nations.<\/span><\/li>\n
- “The Global-Warming Deception” by Grant R. Jeffrey, reveals how a secret elite plans to bankrupt America and steal your freedom using environmentalism as a pretext.<\/span><\/li>\n
- “The Global Conspiracy Exposed” by The Whistleblower, uncovers the collusion of the world government, the elite, Agenda 21, and the veracity of the fallen angels and UFOs.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I highly recommend Webb\u2019s book to anyone who wants to understand what is really going on in the world today and what we can do about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
As you know we are applying the concepts of other people\u2019s money to pay off the assets we acquire. That principle holds true.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
At the same time, we need to be aware that there is a limit to what we can handle if a crisis really comes about, anything similar to the great financial crisis of 2008 -2012 or worse.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
I am a member of the Freedom Accelerator Program and its founder has lived through such a crisis.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
He had his properties burdened with mortgages and loans because that was possible at the time. One could even get to more than 100% debt on a house. Ultimately it created massive losses when tenants could not pay rent anymore and he was trying to cover the missed payments out of his own funds and reserves.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
That ended pretty quickly and only about 20% of his portfolio survived.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
We want to learn from that and not ever have more than 80% of long-term debt on our properties.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
In the short term, for a few years, when we know we can cover it, it might be suitable for great deals, but anything should be done to keep debt levels low and keep paying them off using rent income.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Most of us on our ideal investor journey towards the Time Freedom Point don\u2019t really need the positive cash flow for life expenses, so we should use as much of it as possible to get debt levels down. This applies these days more than in the past as the cost of money due to high interest rates is much higher than it used to be.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
This book is not an easy read, but it is a necessary one. The stakes are too high to ignore or deny this reality. We have to face it and fight it before it is too late.<\/span><\/p>\n___
