00:01 The Fed will lower interest rates
00:02 tomorrow and the tsunami of freshly
00:05 printed money will start. So, uh,
00:08 tomorrow there's between a 96% and a 97%
00:11 chance that the Federal Reserve will
00:13 lower interest rates by one quarter of a
00:15 percentage point. And there's about a 10
00:17 or 12% chance that they will lower it by
00:20 half a percentage point. Now, this is a
00:22 big deal because there's $7.5 trillion
00:25 sitting in money market funds sitting on
00:27 the sidelines basically gorging
00:29 themselves on free high interest rates.
00:33 Meaning people are just letting their
00:34 money sit there not doing anything and
00:36 getting paid by the government to sit on
00:38 the sidelines. But of course, when the
00:40 government holds interest rates that
00:41 high, the government has to pay those
00:43 interest rates on its own debt, which is
00:45 completely unaffordable. As a result,
00:48 there's a constant incentive for the
00:49 government to lower interest rates
00:51 because it lowers the rates they have to
00:53 pay on their own government debt. And in
00:56 doing so, the way they lower interest
00:58 rates below what the market would
01:00 normally be willing to loan for is by
01:02 printing huge amounts of money and then
01:05 flooding it into the economy. When the
01:07 Federal Reserve does that, they dilute
01:09 the value of your work. So all of the
01:11 time and energy you put into making
01:14 money by converting your time and energy
01:17 into US dollars, they show up with a
01:20 magic money printer and print a ton of
01:22 money out of the blue and dilute the
01:25 value of everyone else's money. So that
01:27 is what is going on right now. And the
01:30 best way to protect yourself is to buy
01:32 Bitcoin. Now the action is not going to
01:35 all happen in one day. It is the
01:37 compounding effect of the Fed lowering
01:40 interest rates a quarter of a percentage
01:41 point tomorrow. Another half a
01:44 percentage point in a month or two,
01:46 another quarter of a percentage point
01:48 two months after that. And basically in
01:50 a short period of time, suddenly we're
01:51 sitting at 1.5% interest rates instead
01:53 of 4.5% interest rates. And trillions of
01:56 dollars comes from money market funds
01:59 looking for a new home where there's
02:01 higher yield. and a bunch of that money
02:03 is going to be chasing scarce assets,
02:06 pushing prices up for everything, but
02:08 especially for Bitcoin, which is the
02:10 scarcest asset around. So, if you want
02:12 to protect yourself from the insane
02:15 money printing that is coming, uh the
02:18 best way you can do that is by
02:19 converting as much of your US dollars
02:22 into Bitcoin as you can so that it is
02:24 protected and insulated from the
02:26 irresponsible behavior of the Federal
02:29 Reserve. So, uh, best way to do that is
02:32 to buy Bitcoin on River. Riv.com.
02:35 River.com. And, uh, let me know if you
02:37 have any questions.
