"Relax. Close your eyes. It'll be over in no time!"












I found myself getting involved in a conversation with a stranger the other day who happened to bring up all the problems that one of our two Presidential candidates will be facing after January 1st. Here was a guy in his 50's that worked his whole life for AT&T, recently retired, and dabbled a little with throwing some extra pocket change into the stock market. He, like a lot of people out there, had money in a place that he didn't really get too involved with until the recent events of the last few weeks. As it turned out, when he finally decided to look into where some of his money was going, he was shocked to learn the amount of money that had built up over the years without him knowing. $5,000 was sitting there and he didn't know what to do. Unfortunately for him, he caught an interview with CNBC Financial "Guru", Jim Cramer one morning on television and that's when the problems really started. Because he waited too long to do anything, that 5K that he knew he never had until now is gone forever. To make matters worse, this guy took a buyout for early retirement, got a year's severance pay for all his years of hard work, and is now dipping into his 401K despite all the penalties. Sure, that $5,000 would have come in handy right now BUT...he listened to some horse's ass on television who misled him and others into a big financial mess. By the way, his apologizing the following day about what he advised everyone to do ended with Cramer nearly in tears on his hands and knees in a spectacle not seen since Rev. Jimmy Swaggart's sex scandal years ago!
Have you seen John McCain on TV giving his two cents about the bind we're all in? He's a guy who believes that like all other bad things, "This too shall pass!". He may be right. Why worry now? Things will fall back into place in time and the quick fix is as simple as slapping a Band-Aid over the situation for now. As a matter of fact, the entire global economy continues to meet together to find a solution. There is one on the way however, like many welcoming offers, this also has strings attached. Considering we're half way there, we may as well embrace it, accept it, and see what happens in the end. Even though most of us know the ending already. This is the beginning of a New World Order. A plan detailed in The Bible. All religions seem to be on the same page when they suggest that The Bible is a blueprint however, it can be altered in a way that has positive results. Only we can change it to actually work that way. In this case, the N.W.O. has nothing to do with WCW Monday Nitro of years ago. This is serious business and the ball has already started rolling.. This of course, is all unchartered territory. While world leaders converge and look for a way to right this wrong, it's clear that what happened in The United States has leaked into the rest of the world. The solution? The world has to pull together and press the reset button and reboot. In the end, the only solution is a global monetary system.
Get rid of Euro's, Dollars, Pesos and start from scratch. Call it what you want, but make a dollar worth a dollar everywhere in the world that accepts money. If you pay $4 a gallon for gas here, make it the same in the U.K., China, Australia..everywhere. How about $2 for a gallon of milk worldwide? A fixed mortgage rate so everyone can afford a home?! The Bible suggests that getting to this point will result in a storm that rains toads and hot hail and leads to our final days here on earth. Now, my question to you on this Sunday is: Who is going to interrupt the meeting and stop the events from taking place? Well, sorry folks. Not me. I can't afford the plane ticket to get to that meeting anyway. I guess we all have to wait this thing out?!!
