Transcript
- 0:00In a capitalist economy. In a backage economy, money is issued in the
- 0:04form of credit. Credit hit the markets in massive amounts at credit immediately turns
- 0:09into debt and I owe you after it's spent. Once that credit is triggered,
- 0:14it becomes debt. So what we focused on after twenty twenty was the
- 0:18massive amount of credit injected in system. I think somebody said seventy percent of
- 0:23the US dollars credits is in seventeen seventy six were issued in twenty twenty twenty
- 0:27one. All right, now this is what three four years later that credit
- 0:31has now turned into debt. It's become debt, all right, and we're
- 0:34running on gas and fuse. You're listening to Carrie. Let'sa's Financial Survival Network

- 1:06the Financial Survival Network. I'm your host, Carrie lutz Well, one of
- 1:10my earliest guests. Who's been with us almost since the beginning. Are to
- 1:14believe Daryl, it's fourteen years now we've been doing this and we keep getting
- 1:19closer and closer to the abyss. But we haven't quite gone over the edge
- 1:25yet, but just maybe. But we're getting so close now that we can
- 1:30help but go over the edge. The edge carry is the only thing that's
- 1:34left. It's like you kicked the can down the road and all of a
- 1:38sudden, there's no more road. We're and the central backers are kicking like
- 1:44hell. That can is starting to bounce off of infinity and we are on
- 1:49the edge. We are on the edge of the abyss. I believe that
- 1:53we are at the point that we've been talking about for fourteen years. When
- 1:59we start talking, I believe that we were going to collapse there, all
- 2:04right. And we didn't. We didn't because of one thing. The central
- 2:08bankers had pulled a trick out of the half they had never done before.
- 2:13It was called quantitative music. Before central bankers had always manipulated the credit and
- 2:19debt balance in society. Growth, you know, contraction, blah blah blah
- 2:23with it with the interest rate. All right, things got a little pipe.
- 2:25You loosen straight, things slowed down. You let the interest rate go
- 2:30down to speed up growth because there's more credit in the system. Blah blah
- 2:32blah blah blah. So it became a you know, that's how they that's
- 2:36what it was. It's a card trick. And they had they had acted,
- 2:39they were the ones who issued the cards. What happened is in two
- 2:44thousand and eight it was so bad that loring the interest rates down to zero
- 2:47didn't work. They were then the collapse happened carry in two thousand and eight,
- 2:54in September, Okay, in December they went down to zero basically,
- 3:00I mean a year and a half before, they had been a five and
- 3:02a half percent. All right, now you're at zgo and nothing happened,
- 3:07okay, and that's why. On January first, in the in the Genesis
- 3:12blockchain of bitcoin, but it's first was issued, there was a statement that
- 3:16Alistair Darling essentially the back of England was going to do going to the till
- 3:22and it was a program called Quantitative VisiC. And this is the first time
- 3:25central baggers were forced to do that. They before to make it go up
- 3:30and down all the news, adjust the ballance, the credit the indust rate.
- 3:36It's like jiggling the handle on your toilet. Your toilet here, everyone's
- 3:39not going the blank, you know, you know, Okay, it's running
- 3:43again, and you're going, man, I'm not gonna hire that. When
- 3:46he came in here, I paid him four hundred fifty bucks in the dancing
- 3:49was right the next week. So you go up there and jiggle it,
- 3:51all right, and it stopped. It stops until it doesn't until something is
- 3:57so bad in the system below you actually have to call the plumber. All
- 4:01right, Well, generally the handle is what if the interest rate thing was
- 4:06in two thousand and eight, it was so bad and it never happened.
- 4:11It happened for yes, in the Great Depression. That's why we were convinced
- 4:14when you and I started tired, we're heading for the Great Depression. And
- 4:16we still are, all right, But we didn't expect Kiue to come in
- 4:20quie brilliance of dollars on the books of central banks. They had never had
- 4:28a negative balance of their books, all right, on the books at central
- 4:30banks and flooded markets with money. Now, what what did that do?
- 4:36In two thousand and eight? The money because of the way it's issued in
- 4:42a credit, and what we call capitalism, it goes first, It goes
- 4:45only to the people who are worried the credit to the banks, not to
- 4:49you and me to the hey. So the banks got basically zero percent interest
- 4:57on their money all right out. The hate was they that money would go
- 5:01out and vivify and restore the economy. We start buying and selling. Well
- 5:05until that, we all need to cheap credit. But the banks, because
- 5:09they take it says massive hits to the balances. They weren't going to let
- 5:13that credit go for cheap. They arbitraged it, all right. They were
- 5:16in a crisis. They knew their customers were in a less financial stable position
- 5:21now than they were before the crash. And when you're in that position,
- 5:27they're not going to cut you. When they slack, you're now more risks.
- 5:30Before they looked at you as a cash cow. Now you made need
- 5:34a cash cow. But you're wheezy, okay, I mean you know what
- 5:40so much today? All right, your interest rate starts going up. So
- 5:44that's what they did, and ever since then they kept trying to raise the
- 5:48interest rights and the cow kept falling down. They were never able to normalize
- 5:54the interest rates, all right, and what happened is they've really tried to
- 5:59start it in twenty sixty because they cheap interest rates. Is like steroids.
- 6:04It works for a while. We all know somebody who was in the hospital
- 6:10who had problems with this or that, and you gotta eat the steroids.
- 6:13But we all know that they know that. Continued steroids it's skill killer.
- 6:18So what they Central backs have done since two thousand and eight is continually tried
- 6:23to raise the interest rates back up, all right, But every time they
- 6:27did that, cal started stumbling, all right, and got and laid down
- 6:30again. Well, an intervening event happened, and in twenty twenty, COVID
- 6:36hit all right. Now, credit debt based economies are are are It's like
- 6:44a carburetor in a car. You adjust the ratio between the air and the
- 6:47and the gaslink, okay, and to juice it up you either put more
- 6:53air. I don't know, but that's that's what is. They put a
- 6:56supercharger on it, okay, but you always need to have a flow going
- 7:00in or the engine's gonna stop and it's gonna die. Well, what happened
- 7:06is is that in twenty twenty, the engine contracted. It didn't slow down.
- 7:14The cars didn't start throwing down. You know, when the economy starts
- 7:16slowing down and we watch it like the PMI, the contractor, Oh it's
- 7:20slowing down, so rolls the story and we get worried. Well, it
- 7:24never ever really contracts, except in like a depression. In April of twenty
- 7:29twenty, when COVID first hit and everybody figured out eight maybe you got to
- 7:33stay over there, all right, the economies all around the world contracted by
- 7:39an average of forty five percent. That's unheard of. That's unheard of,
- 7:44unheard them. So what they did, and they knew where we're hitted.
- 7:47So what they did was they poured so much money in they did killing on
- 7:53the level. Everybody got money in Qing, I mean everyone and back.
- 8:00Don't give money to anybody. If a banker offers you money, Carrie,
- 8:05you should put yourself in the position of a little girl and a stranger coming
- 8:09in candy, all right. That banker does not want you to enjoy that
- 8:13thing for the reason for the candy bar. It wants you to take it
- 8:16because he's got plans, all right. So they poured all this money and
- 8:22what because in a capitalist to call it In a banker's economy, money is
- 8:26issued in the form of credit. Credit hit the markets in massive amounts.
- 8:31A credit immediately turns into debt and I owe you after it's spent. Once
- 8:35that credit is triggered, it becomes debt. So what we focused on after
- 8:41twenty twenty was the massive amount of credit injected in system. I think somebody
- 8:45said seventy percent of the US dollars credits is in seventeen seventy six were issued
- 8:50in twenty twenty twenty one. All right, Now this is what three four
- 8:52years later that credit has now turned into debt. It's become debt, all
- 8:56right, and we're running on gas and fumes as we speak now. Last
- 9:01on last Friday, Carry one of the headlines was the markets reached another heighting
- 9:07okay, and it said in the last I say two months or quarter,
- 9:13there were twenty two record days wreck, twenty two record higher higher that never
- 9:18had happened before, all right. And I wrote my little note because I
- 9:22you know, I got this web, my website, dr Shoot, okay,
- 9:26and I post articles that I think you're pertinent. And I used to
- 9:28put my little comments that I know it's just news. I put a copt
- 9:33in on that article for the first time in like two years. And my
- 9:37comment was its brightest before the crash. You know, were you used to
- 9:41It's darkest before the dawn. They give us, Oh, the ft site
- 9:43is and just as true is it's its brightest before the crash. Well,
- 9:48the next Monday it started fallowing. And the last two days, as if
- 9:52yesterday the Dallas following over seven hundred points in two days. Okay, we
- 9:56were reaching that point. And this is because the tsunami of credit has turned
- 10:03into a tidal wave of debt and and and you know, carry I was
- 10:07thinking about what I was gonna say today, and I know that people think,
- 10:11oh, this can happen what we call her black swans, you know,
- 10:13like an in dodgenocy, that where the system itself internally breaks down,
- 10:18like you know, the repot markets or something like that, or an exogen
- 10:20is the bit like a war, okay, can cause the event. What
- 10:24I did, the critical piece is neither in Dodgenice nor exogen. The critical
- 10:31piece that's gonna cause it, defall is a collapse of confidence. Yeah,
- 10:35it's a confidence game. And as long as you're confident, you're gonna borrow
- 10:39money to buy the house. You're gonna buy the car, and they need
- 10:41you to borrow money to buy the house, to buy the car, to
- 10:43go to school, to pay you know, to blah blah blah. And
- 10:46as soon as you become free, you're gonna pull in your you know,
- 10:50your your you know, hey, that vacation doesn't look so good blah blah
- 10:54blah. And once it starts thlowing down at the macro level, everything slows
- 10:58down. This is why China is in such trouble. China is fascinating because
- 11:05they're like the little kid that grew up real fast. Okay, real fast.
- 11:09I mean five forty years ago they were they had why is ago?
- 11:13Its fifteen years ago? Now you got parches? Okay, now they're like
- 11:20us on credit. But they did they It happened so fast because you know,
- 11:28you know the West capitalist avenue like two hundred years. In China,
- 11:33it happened in forty, all right. And they you think about bubbles,
- 11:37The Chinese love real estate, so everything went into real estate. And once
- 11:41the bubble pop, the real estate bubble Potent twenty, all of a sudden,
- 11:46the Chinese economy started contracting because now they don't trust anything, and no,
- 11:52and they shouldn't. I mean, I'm wrong. You should trust things
- 11:58when they're expanding, and distrust them when they're contracted. Right, and the
- 12:03trick is and the trick is in between. We are we've been in that
- 12:07in between area walking fifteen years ago, purgatory, barrel, furatory, Yeah,
- 12:15and forwards. Hell, you know, I know a whole bunch of
- 12:18people at the top who didn't haven't cashed out of the market yet. What
- 12:24they're looking at, Matt, this is closer to Heaven than I've ever been
- 12:26true, which is true, But they don't understand they're closer to Hell than
- 12:31they've ever been to And the chances of them reaching to heaven are zero compared
- 12:37to the chances of then idiot Helle today. That's where we are. Yeah,
- 12:41well you know that greed. What did what's his name Bernard Baruch say,
- 12:46I got rich letting the other guy make the last ten percent? Yeah,
- 12:50that's what you don't know when it turns and every you know, I
- 12:56think jan husband said everybody is because of because the spikes have been so huge
- 13:03and and and the and the naysayers have been proved wrong so many times that
- 13:09if you have a tendency and if you want that last dollar on the table,
- 13:13you're it's it's your You're you're front loaded to stay in the game.
- 13:16You're front loaded. And and this is just how it is. You know,
- 13:20my father lost a huge amount of money in the stock market. You
- 13:24know, he was just he was an engineer, and a huge amount of
- 13:26money. It was not a huge amount of money, but for him it
- 13:28was the huge amount of money because mutual funds got in and my fight was
- 13:31very cautious, but there was so much money and mutual funds, and he
- 13:35finally got in there, like a whole lot of people did in the sixties.
- 13:41He finally got in there, and then the rug gut pulled out,
- 13:46you know, And this is what happened in nineteen seventy three, nineteen nineteen
- 13:52eighty three, after the drug got pulled out, that now was at seven
- 13:54seventy seven. Yeah, what's it now? Threety fights out. So I
- 13:58have no idea what it's at. It's you know, I don't watch the
- 14:01dance day, but it was that seven hundred and seventy seven. We visited
- 14:05the biggest and that's when you know, you know, that's thirty nine and
- 14:09thirty nine one three at this right at this moment, Daryl, Wow,
- 14:15thirteen point today, Yeah, from seven seven seven. And what they've what
- 14:18they've done, Carrie, because so much depends on it. They they they
- 14:24pushed the side gold because they knew gold. In the nineteen eighties, gold
- 14:28went from thirty five dollars announced to what six hundred and fifty in nine years?
- 14:33That's huge in nine years, Okay, huge, And they knew that.
- 14:39And they saw it was like it was like they were watching a crystal
- 14:43ball and they thought, holy smokes, we're back again. People now know,
- 14:46people know gold is like a barometer of systemic distress. And they knew
- 14:52gold the price of gold, if it went up, people get worried and
- 14:58cold mine. They got what the pricy gon go. So what they did
- 15:01is he started beating it down. And now when when when when? You
- 15:05know, in two thousand and eight, when the collapse happened, when the
- 15:07first financial collapse happened, right, gold started skyrocketing. The big boys got
- 15:13the Bank of They got Switzerland to sell twenty two tons of gold directly into
- 15:20the market in the spring of two thousand and note directly, and it shoved
- 15:26gold down. So now in twenty and twenty four nobody accepted. All true
- 15:33believers in goal still believe that gold is going to be the last man's standing,
- 15:37right, and it is. I mean I believe it, You believe
- 15:41it, yeah, But everybody else out there, the boys. Okay,
- 15:45So what about bitcoin. My feeling is like the embracing of bitcoin by all
- 15:50the institutions is just to throw more down. Now, throw more money may
- 15:56from gold into cryptos. Right, Hey, this is what that is.
- 16:00They're the equivalent of my father in the nineteen sixties institutions I call institutional money.
- 16:08The slow boys. Okay. Wall Street is a dance between the fast
- 16:14boys and the slow boys. Now Boo wins the dance. The people who
- 16:19call them the dance in the first place, the fast boys, all right,
- 16:23The fast boys need the slow boys at the dance. Yeah, all
- 16:29right, So they do everything to get them in. Now what do they
- 16:33sell the slow boys debt? They sell them the exhaust off of their fumes
- 16:38io us all right. So the slow boys have government io used all right,
- 16:45uh, every you know, corporate io us. Then in two thousand
- 16:51and they got bundled us of subpride walls. They even got that shut down.
- 16:56They throw because the other ones weren't in any tape. But that's who
- 16:59it is. The slow boys are now sitting there, they've lost so much
- 17:03money up and down. They're they're going to bitcoin, you know, the
- 17:07fast boys. Now the fast boys have an ETF. They can sell the
- 17:11goddamn ship to the poor slow points. And the slow boys go, yeah,
- 17:17look it went up. It went up and up because they're really conservative,
- 17:19and all they gotta do is say, hey, Bill, this stuff
- 17:22was worth less than a penny two thousand and nine, and now we'll look
- 17:26what it's work. Don't don't don't think that it's lost twenty grand yesterday,
- 17:29think that it's gone up eighty grands as it started. And Bill goes,
- 17:33yeah, you're right, as they hand him another bottle of Jaffa and pitch
- 17:37him, you know, another pench in funt And that's what's happening. They're
- 17:40in it. They're in it. Yeah, yeah, well it's quite a
- 17:42pickle we're in. Huh. Well, I just thought, here we are,
- 17:47Gary talking the week after Easter. Yeah, what a great time that
- 17:52And it's but it's true, you and I have been talking about this is
- 17:56two thousand. I mean he's for fourteen years. We watched it and and
- 18:00and and the question has always been on your nath said, how long is
- 18:03this gonna go? When's it gonna crash? Because, like I told you
- 18:07before, once you see there's a structural structural flaw, and you're and your
- 18:15you and I are like monetary engineers, all right. We we study money,
- 18:21all right. The other people study what money builds, all right.
- 18:26We study money and once you see a structural flaw, you go, oh,
- 18:30he smokes, what your building is gonna crape? All right, So
- 18:37we've been fixated on the effect of the flaw. Everybody else is going,
- 18:41man, this stuff, look with you then do with that. And we
- 18:45watch them go, wow, look what it's gonna do to you, And
- 18:48they don't listen to us, you know, and we know why. It's
- 18:52the drag economy, right, Oh man, this is what it is.
- 18:56So you know I I you know, I told my friend Marshall he like
- 19:03to be he likes to be optimistic. I said. He thought this was
- 19:06really bunny. I said, someday, Marshall, we're gonna, oh chicken,
- 19:10little an apology. Yeah, you know, little is going to be
- 19:15right. Someday the sky now eventually five, eventually, the end of the
- 19:19road is going to come. You can kick the can all you want,
- 19:23but the end of the road is going to come. You know. One
- 19:26of my sayings I wrote long fib Ago was we borrowed from tomorrow and guess
- 19:32what. Tomorrow's here, Tomorrow's here. Yeah, well you remember that song.
- 19:36It was a theme song from a movie in the sixties. Let's forget
- 19:40about tomorrow. Tomorrow never comes. That's about del Monte. It was an
- 19:45Italian I think Gina Lola Bridget. It isn't. Oh, we gotta bring
- 19:51that one back and put that and do it do do a fake a fake
- 19:56ad for Goldman sachs oh, JP morton tomorrow. Let's forget about tomorrow.
- 20:02Tomorrow ever up? And Frank Sinatra sag it too. Oh god, it's
- 20:07yeah, it's it's it's it's it's it's the It's the hope of the desperate.
- 20:14Yeah, yeah, you remember that movie. You know, I think
- 20:17Genoalla Bridget who was in it. But but you can't forget Ginolo Bridget.
- 20:21Yeah, definitely. Hey, so uh uh ai, how does Ai fit
- 20:27into all of this sterile and what's your take on it? Oh? No,
- 20:32I thought about it, okay AYI is the last bubble one of the
- 20:38It is a bubble, okay, And it doesn't It's not that it doesn't
- 20:41have value, but it doesn't have the value that I think it has.
- 20:47Okay. They they think that AI is going to give them answers that they
- 20:52don't have. And it's true, it is going to give answers that they
- 20:57don't have, but it's not going to give them the answers that they want
- 21:00to happen. We don't know if it's lying or not right. Yea,
- 21:04even that because all he is is based on our collective on our collective thoughts.
- 21:10It's nothing new. They take as much data from the Internet as they
- 21:14can. Much chatter, and you and I know some of that chatter is
- 21:18true, and ninetynine percent of its bulls. How much chatter out there is
- 21:23is devoted to what we're talking about, less than one tenth to one percent,
- 21:27minuscule. All the money chatter. If you're gonna go do money chatter,
- 21:32it's it's about blah blah blah. And so if you ask AI a
- 21:34question about money, it's gonna give you the common a more fuller, in
- 21:41depth answer to the common bullshit that's going around. And that's that's AI.
- 21:49And these are desperate times. People are looking for answers, and AI is
- 21:55the last of the desperate answers in the desperate times. Hey, well,
- 22:00maybe we're better off using an eight ball, you know, well you are
- 22:04in a sense. I mean, what was it those stock market place the
- 22:07joke was it with? And then they had the stock Market Dark Abnosticators,
- 22:11and then you had the dark Board. You know, it's a crapshoot,
- 22:15Gary, it always has bit that's why, that's why, that's why alcohol
- 22:21has always been popular. Yeah. That song Let's Forget About Tomorrow was from
- 22:27the movie The Yellow Rolls Royce, which was from the sixties. And I
- 22:33actually saw that movie in Radio City with my mother. God knows how many
- 22:38years ago. It was a nineteen sixty four film, but I think it
- 22:44was there like sixty seven I saw it. But yeah, yeah, you
- 22:48remember that title boy for a reason? Yep? All right, So AI
- 22:53though, but it is pushing the limits, all right. It's like,
- 23:00does godlike creation what it's being portrayed as rare squishing the limits? Right?
- 23:07Yes, it is. It is it's it's it is extraordinary, you know,
- 23:11my son, in fact, Benjamin, he graduated from MIT in nineteen
- 23:17ninety four, and at that time he was thinking of getting it into AI.
- 23:22I mean, Marvin Minsky was at MIT. Marvin was Minsky was the
- 23:26known as a father artificial intelligence, all right, and he was thinking of
- 23:33getting to artificial intelligence. And what I was opposed to AI even then,
- 23:37all right, and for philosophical reasons, all right, because all was to
- 23:44me and it is is a bunch of thought forms of our humanity, you
- 23:48know, jumble together and you roll the dice and you ask the compendium of
- 23:55all this past bullshit, speculate what the answer it's just does It's like we're
- 24:00looking into a mirror, a more sophisticated mirror, a bigger mirror than we've
- 24:04ever looked into before. But it's the same mirror, and it's it was
- 24:08narcissist, narciss whoever's they with the guy? No different? Yeah, we've
- 24:14just you know, we've got a new mirror. We've got ANYI is the
- 24:17latest mirror with a very high tech, fancy frame around, and we're still
- 24:22looking to our fucking reflections thinking it's going to get something that we that that
- 24:29we're looking for. And did you see that demo of the AI robot like
- 24:37picking up an apple and guy says, I'm hungry, give me some food,
- 24:41and the thing looks around, picks up an apple and hands it to
- 24:44him. Uh, I'll find that. I'll put it in the show notes.
- 24:48It's amazing, you know. It says, hey, put these things,
