Pirate Capitalism

Pirate Capitalism: Saving Your Ship (Home), Crew (Family) and Treasure (Assets) in the Coming Financial Storm answers three important questions:



No one, including the “experts”, believed the Titanic could sink, but the damn ship did sink on its maiden voyage – did it not? Former Fed Chairman Greenspan said and many “experts” and politicians say that we should not worry about the U.S. going broke, but, dear reader, the U.S. is worse than broke – it is 190 trillion dollars or more in debt. The U.S. ship is sinking just as surely as the Titanic did sink. If you don’t act now, who in the hell is going to take care of your children, your spouse, your parents, your pets?



It is not IF a financial storm is going to hit – It is only a matter of WHEN.



How, specifically, can this book make sure you and your loved ones are protected?



Pirate Capitalism: Saving Your Ship, Crew and Treasure in the Coming Financial Storm is a warning shot across the bow to get people to realize that things are not going to get better any time soon, but, indeed, are going to get much worse. Do not be fooled by temporary gains or even record-setting gains in the stock market (as they are a part of the ploy) or from feel-good speeches from politicians. Any person who tells you that the U.S. financial system will be just fine is either a fool or is a liar. Rogue waves are growling toward our collective ship (humanity), our personal ships (homes), our crews (families) and our treasures (assets).



Don’t be duped into believing that the U.S. cannot go bankrupt – it already is.



Why is the nautical theme of this book important and relevant to you? How can the wisdom of long-dead ship captains from the 1700s and 1800s be of use to you and your family today? These captains and crews would sail the high seas alone for months on end without cell phones, without Coast Guard rescue ships or helicopters, without passing ships, without refrigerators to preserve food, without direction-giving, location-finding, GPS, without any contact from the rest of the world – and they did so on a leaky, stinky, dangerous, cramped, wooden, leadership laboratory (known as a ship) – replete with battles, storms, dismemberment, sickness, disease, disagreements, shortages, vice and death.



Either they were damn good captains or they were damn dead captains and so too were their crews!



The fact is that Americans (and people around the world) will need to master the same types of skills, overcome the same challenges, endure the same isolation, struggle with the same finite supplies and employ the same strategies to prepare their ships (homes), crews (families) and treasures (assets) as the great ship captains had to aboard their ships to save themselves, their crews and their treasures.



To further preparedness and self-sufficiency and for your convenience, time-tested information and detailed lists are provided in the second part of this book: How to prepare your home; How to protect your loved ones; What to do with your money, investments and assets; What quality of life and life-sustaining supplies you will need and measures to take; What household and personal security initiatives to deploy; What changes you need to make; What alliances you should forge; What to avoid at all costs.



Just as you have purchased health and homeowner’s insurances to protect you and your loved ones if something bad happens, you should purchase Pirate Capitalism as insurance for what is coming.



The only goal of this book is to make you a good, competent, Captain so that you can save your ship (home), crew (family) and treasure (assets).
