New normal is a phrase being tossed around a lot lately.  I find it usually used to get the sheep in line.  When the market crashed in 08, dolts like Susie Orman used it to explain to you why you should now work until you are 75 or 80 to retire.  Proving that she was totally useless to anyone who had not already figured it out. Today “new normal” seems designed to condition you to expect to be locked in your own home for at least a few years and that life has changed forever.  Never mind that humanity has … Continue reading →

I am gonna say it isn’t really a true buyer’s market right now, not based on the prices I see.  It is much more so than it was 18 months ago but super great deals are not everywhere, YET. Yet?  Yes yet!  They are coming and I am going to discuss why the market is always good for smart buyers all the time anyway.  That said, trust me, the recovery no matter how good it is, if it is the best one we can hope for will take time.  During that time people will need to sell, not want to, … Continue reading →

The word of the week in fact the word or the month is solutions and so that is what we are discussing today with Expert Council member Nicole Sauce.  While many right now are out of work and hoping this ends before that becomes permanent, some are thriving in the side hustle and gig economy. We have taught lifestyle design from almost day one on TSP.  While basic prepping is pretty strait forward, I mean we can sum it up this simplistically… At a minimum build up sufficient supplies and finances to be able to go 30-60 days without systems … Continue reading →

We hear an awful lot about how entitled people have become, have you ever thought that just may be that is because people don’t know how great the alternative really is?  I mean really, despite all the promises government makes in general if your life is to be anything other than a basic existence you really are on your own. I am almost 50 and I remember believing in “the system” but I also now have decades to reflect on.  I have heard the promises for a very long time and I have looked at society and accepted that mostly, … Continue reading →

According to the people in power we are all on the edge of total destruction, all the time and only they separate us from oblivion.  Of course this is mostly a great way to control people.  Governments need enemies to protect citizens from in order to keep them obedient and to allow for the steady removal of liberty over time. That said we do have some real problems, the fact that the people who claim to have solutions are actually the cause of those problems doesn’t change the fact that said problems exist.  Just because many of the problems are … Continue reading →
