Financial Survival Kit

What do you need to be prepared for the future financial turmoil? How can you survive?

Should I Buy Gold?

It seems like everyone is a gold bug these days, but is it the right thing for you?

What Are The Chances?

With all this "end of the world" hype going on, maybe we should consider the chances. What are the chances of a civilization threatening event?

How Much Insurance Do I Need?

Insurance is an extremely broad topic. Hopefully this generalization on the different types and amounts will help straighten things out a bit.

Iraqi Dinar: Scam or Scoop?

Some say it's an easy way to make a million bucks! But do you understand currency markets enough to take advantage?

The financial world we live in is just as wild, if not more, than the mountains and woods we walk through. We are told that the fundamentals of our economy are strong, but we can feel that something is wrong. My unique financial background and survival passion make Financial Survivalist and excellent place to learn and share.

Creature From Jekyll Island by Edward Griffin Review


No this isn't a fiction book. Parts of the history of the Fed seem like fiction, but they are not. In fact, if you're not into history and finance parts can be a bit boring. However, this book is very well organized and very well written.

The Fed was not the first federal bank. In fact it was the third. Each of the previous two had disastrous results in so much that it took secret planning and two attempts to sneak the Federal Reserve into reality. It's not conspiracy theory. It's a well documented conspiracy fact!

This book gives you the basics of banking, the history you need to understand the Fed, a realistic picture of the Fed, an idea of where we are headed if we stay on our current path and how to fix it.

Nothing about the fed is good. It is the largest and most powerful cartel in the world, built on the backs of the tax payers, and created to protect the rich bankers. The stated mission is to protect the economy from wild economic swings, but as we all know, EPIC FAIL!

This is the BEST BOOK ON THE FED I'VE EVER READ!  It is absolutely a must read for every Financial Survivalist. I wish everyone knew this stuff.

Don't Audit The Fed!!!

Anyone that thinks the world's important financial markets still believe that the Fed is using any kind of sane reserve ratio is mistaken!

The world knows the Fed is broke. They know that the game is a farse! So why do they still play it? Because it's the only game that is played! It's been played for 100's of years and if you know how to play it you can make lots of money!

The only thing auditing the Fed will do is WASTE TIME. The audit would be held up and lost in endless government bureaucracy. It would be an excuse for politicians say they are doing something. Years later we would find out what we already know and nothing would change, because no one cares and no one would be surprised.

Emerlit Stove Review


While backpacking in the Absoroka Beartooth Wilderness, we took an Emberlit stove to cook with. Decided to shoot some vid and give my own opinion of the stove. It rained a lot and everything was wet, so we are lucky Dan from TheDailyPrep gave me some fat wood!

Much love to TheDailyPrep.com for lending the stove and to Melissa for filming.

North Face Tadpole 23 Tent Review

I did a review on this tent the first time I took it out. A few years later, we took it out and got rained on all day. So, being bored and stuck in the tent I made a video review for you.


Got stuck in rainy weather while backpacking in the Absoroka Beartooth Wilderness. I tell you, 7 hours in a tent, you have to be creative. I vow to forever carry books on my iPone. Decided to give a review of our tent because we were experiencing the first ever true test of a tent that was designed to keep you dry. The Tadpole held up strong, though there was some condensation in the morning.
