In the not too distant future, America is going to wake up, probably on a Monday morning, and find at least half of their wealth wiped away. A Day of Reckoning is coming and the people will be facing a financial tsunami that they never saw coming. Am I just illustrating a pessimistic attitude and you think dear reader that this could never happen in the good ole U.S.A.? WRONG! It is inevitable and the tea leaves are staring you in the 18moa every day through the headlines in major publications. All you have to do is listen and think! Why do you think America has seen exponential prosperity since the end of WWII? Have you ever heard of Bretton Woods or even know what a world's reserve currency is or how it magnifies power to the infinite degree? I can understand why you think I'm pessimistic if the answers to these questions are no. The whole world is tired of our blatant imperialistic attitude and our abuse of Super Power Status!

Bretton Woods was an agreement after WWII that established the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency. The London financial district was in shambles and thus the British pound had to be replaced as a conduit of world-wide trade. The U.S. became the center of all trade and therefore countries had to convert their currency into dollars before selling or buying products from each other. Their banks had to hold dollars in reserve to facilitate transactions and to insure their solvency. This agreement is about to unwind and country after country will soon be reneging on this treaty. There are currently 57 countries that are negotiating a new agreement that will establish a new world's currency reserve, including Germany and Great Britain. The dollar's value will drop precipitously overnight when the trigger is pulled for countries to convert their reserve dollars into the new currency.

Countries all over the world all already selling their U.S. government bonds. These bonds are U.S. debt instruments and this action has resulted in the Federal Reserve being forced to buy our own debt. No one wants it because faith in the dollar is collapsing at lightning speed. The world is essentially really pissed off at us and they are intent at destroying the financial might of America. This scene has happened before. Rome was a mighty power because they had similar control of world currency. The Dutch became powerful in the 17th and 18th centuries and Great Britain after that until WWII because of the same control on trade. The 20th century was America's turn; however, their control over trade is coming to an end; and thus your wealth will be receiving a haircut soon!

Thus, it behooves American citizens to take steps now. Some economists advise one to invest in financial instruments that are betting on the collapse of the dollar. Some believe that buying and holding physical gold and/or silver is the answer. The important thing for the citizens of America is to do your own research and form a plan to save your financial health from a fast moving cancer. You will lose everything you hold dear if you fail to act. Time is short.
