Business/Finance See other Business/Finance Articles Title: 7 FAQs About Sept. 30th D-Day Tomorrow Sept. 30 is a watershed moment in the saga of the collapse of the international monetary system. Ive been making a nuanced argument for over a year about Sept. 30. Tomorrow, a new version of the International Monetary Funds special drawing right (SDR) will go live. Its important you understand the facts and implications about this development
and not just the sound bites or bumper sticker information that youll read in headlines or short messages. The material we publish is carefully researched, written and published. We dont like to make claims without backing them up. So if youve seen my writings about Sept. 30, please read this entire issue. Its probably the most important thing youll read all month. My thesis is simple: The international monetary system is due for a collapse meaning a loss of confidence in paper currencies. This is what I meant when I titled my second book The Death of Money. This kind of collapse has happened three times in the past 100 years in 1914, 1939 and 1971. Each time, the system was replaced and reset when leaders of the worlds powers assembled and rewrote what are called the rules of the game. For reasons that Ive carefully chronicled in my three books and my newsletter Rickards Strategic Intelligence, the global monetary system is primed for another collapse. Everything that made 2008 terrible has become a complete nightmare today. Even scarier, the worlds central banks will not be able to rescue the system when it does collapse. Since Federal Reserve resources were barely able to prevent complete collapse in 2008, I wrote in my New York Times best-seller The Death of Money, it should be expected that an even larger collapse will overwhelm the Feds balance sheet. Simply put, next time, printing another $3 trillion-plus wont be politically feasible. The specter of the sovereign debt crisis suggests the urgency for new liquidity sources, bigger than those that central banks can provide, the next time a liquidity crisis strikes. The logic leads quickly from one world to one bank to one currency for the planet. Leading the way will be the International Monetary Fund. The task of re-liquefying the world will fall to the IMF because the IMF will have the only clean balance sheet left among official institutions. The IMF will rise to the occasion with a towering issuance of SDRs, and this monetary operation will effectively end the dollars role as the leading reserve currency. I like to explain it like this
In 1998, when Long Term Capital Management collapse, Wall Street bailed out the hedge fund. In 2008, when the financial system collapsed, central banks and government bailed out Wall Street. Now, when the central banks and government collapses, who will bail them out? And with what? The answers are: The International Monetary Fund
and SDRs. Tomorrow is a critical day in that story. Understand it
factor into your investment decisions

I hope you do not have money in an IRA or 401k? The U.S.G. will try to confiscate it, or at least a portion of it, to pay the national debt. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
