      I wouldn’t worry, fiat is on its last leg .
      Digitals will be here in the next 10 years.
      There will be a world currency no matter how they all try to avoid it.
      Its inevitable.
      However No-one has the money to drive the US out.
      We are the top technological , medical, innovation, and military industrial complex.
      If the entire world fought united against the US .
      They wouldnt have a snowballs chance in hell.
      People dont understand the location of the US is perfect. We havent even tapped 90% of resources.
      We have more untapped oil than Saudi Arabia.

    The US dollar cannot survive without continuous credit and debt creation. The FED will print more money and the average American will go just that much further in debt. Meanwhile, foreigners lust for the greenback. Their economies are in worse condition than the US... if that's even possible. Someone is going to be left holding the bag...

      Gold might crash in a liquidity crunch, but many precious metal holders are prepared for this and unlikely to be forced sellers. The paper market would tank and possibly collapse. Hearing from an experienced investor who has overcome adversity is motivating. It can be scary when your portfolio turns red, but if you've invested in strong companies, stick to your goals and continue growing them

    The reason the mortgage rates were so much lower in the US than in Russia is BECAUSE the US has had the luxury of exporting north of 70% of it's inflation to the world. People "have it so good" in the US at the expense of everyone else using dollars around the world. I completely understand why countries want to ditch the dollar.

    • @AndreiJikh
      @AndreiJikh  4 месяца назад +17

      On the contrary - if the world held more dollars - they would tend to experience LESS inflation. But it's not quite that simple. Countries create their own inflation by printing their own money with an INABILITY to export their currency (which is what the US is able to do).

    • @TheDiamond872
      @TheDiamond872 4 месяца назад +53

      @@AndreiJikh So you just proved my point. Russia, in the mortgage case, couldn't offer more competitive rates BECAUSE they can't export their inflation the way the US can. If they would have offered the same rate as the US at the time, they would experience a lot more inflation, because once again, they CAN'T export their inflation the way the US can.

    This is a good topic. The US has been weaponizing the USD and countries are reducing their risk / exposure for self-preservation. Many smaller countries / Territories are using USD as their currency (i.e. Panama, Equador, etc) and US inflation has an even bigger impact on their economies (and people) due to the decrease in purchasing power. Additionally, US debt / GDP is currently around 125% and increasing rapidly, resulting in decrease confidence in ability of the US to service its debt obligations. US debt is not as attractive as it once was, just look at the recent bond offerings, very few takers. In fact many countries are divesting US debt. . Let's not forget the IMF and World Bank and how they bully smaller countries. There is a lot more going on here.

Now I think because of technologies it's almost equal, if not surpassing the US in many categories of technologies.

      Bruh i believe any country that is being surrounded by the hegemonic power that constantly puts out news that my country is interfering with the elections (they didn’t) and has denied my entry in the very same organization all my ex-allies have joined, and then having a country that historically is the area where my country has been invaded in, join in that group, that is for sure an existential crisis.
      Especially when this hegemonic power has been tied to the following regime changes/ attempts at changes:
      Chile, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Iran, Cuba, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Yugoslavia, Venezuela, and the list goes on.
      But y’all just see the invasion. There is decades of this building up and with the US leading the way to where we’re today. But people just see the invasion smh. And damn near we all supported Zelensky back in 2022. I thought dude was a hero at first. But then I really started researching.
      2024, very different opinion now as you can tell. I’m open to talk rather than being called a Russiabot, which is another way we inadvertently do what our MSM is doing, which is to kill civil, productive, and honest discussions regardless if we agree or not.
