The Tide That Lifts All Boats

There was this guy called Edward Bernays once, you know. The US Government hired him to manufacture consent and to manipulate the collective mind of the public. And he was very good at it.

Not that his task was all that difficult. The public has an existing predisposition to hearing lies, gravitating towards lies, accepting lies, and being party to the tacit social and political support of a lying society.

And that's not us here - it's not you.

My task - if I had one - would be much more difficult. In fact it would be impossible. 

Russian-designed buildings, in a Russian city

And I am not some prophetic sci-fi writer like Philip K. Dick who can or who has had some 'vision' about the future that would excite your interest, show a dramatic and awesome pictorial of the world that advancing technology and the power and science of Man will build.

No, I'm the guy who knows where the money was hid.

And in the words of one Michael Caine: 'not many peeple noh dat.'

Not many people care to know because in the first place they don't believe it. I can only explain what I know, without an expectation of being believed or even understood. And that's because I am systematically trying to prevent the wrong people from getting to the money. The kind of money I want to discuss is not of interest to most people...

A friend of my grandfather's, one time, made a gold bullet in the back of my grandfather's hotel in the city here, and the two of them went out to Kalgoorlie and someone shot the bullet into a rock. 

Anyway, the same guy, owned this building here for years and years and years until he passed away, and the building itself was made from red-colored brick that had been made in an open furnace in Kalgoorlie and carted all the way back to the city.

And he was a very rich man the whole of his life.

It happened to be that the mine actually did have gold in it all along, but the stock market never cared until they 'discovered' the gold seam that ran through this rock, see.

Same way, today, basically no ones cares that there is money here or there - someone literally has to tell them so. Someone they and they alone approve of as having any authority in the matter. Which is often a very sickly laughable thing.

There are those too, who, believing that a very large number of people are credulous along certain observable lines or tendencies, try to play upon those tendencies in order to exploit people and gain money by that means. And this is of course, a criminal mentality. It isn't because people are ignorant you need to prey upon them. (And I am not referring to anyone who reads here - that is most unlikely indeed). Certainly one doesn't need to prey upon them at all! 

Another great design from Lamborghini

If someone succeeds in gaining some appearance of affluence because of such criminal kinds of 'mindset,' it has no longevity. It's almost like such people are planting the seeds of their own destruction with every photograph of themselves, looking out at the IPO world (EG, and LOL), from their fake 'business desks,' with their best downward pointing goatees... And their apparent self-confident smirks. This is all an expression of involvement with SELF. It's not any kind of attempt at communicating who the person is or what they really are doing. 

Longevity only comes from comprehending what reality itself is actually 'speaking' as it were, at any given moment of the long saga of human history.

Reality has a separate and a conscious intelligent existence that few ever are allowed to come in contact with. Philip K. Dick did. Maybe Edward Bulwer-Lytton. Certainly HP Lovecraft.

Now there's not too many people alive in the whole world who would have the faintest clue about what I just said. 

But the tide that lifts all boats is not going to lift mine and maybe not yours, either.

My boat don't lift unless I release the compressed gas valve. Doesn't matter what the pressure goes to on the outside, I have more gas under compression than would seem feasible. 

As for others, you bend their air-pipe and they choke. In other words, people can assume they have access to information because they surreptitiously 'watch' you, me, and other clever people. But the reason such are clever is because they are good at misleading the BAD.

I am not an affluent person. The money of the world does not flow to me like some flood waters bringing in other people's goods.

I will never be an affluent person. And I certainly did not win any lottery this week. 'Affluence' is one of the worst, most low class words to apply to anyone. People who come here to read with a view to benefit honestly, are looking for a different quality of money.

The Fatal Flaw Of Modern Real Estate and Mining

Stranahan has now exposed Franklin Foers of The Atlantic as a liar and a front for the Soros Organisation. Ah well, YouTube is not going to re-instate him any time soon, then. But he's all over the place elsewhere so it doesn't really matter. Lee Stranahan is probably the USA's best active investigative journalist apart from Sy Hersh right now.

It isn't really that the world has gone mad, it's that the internet has exposed the real criminal fraudsters in ways that government and police have never previously been able to do - and that's possibly because, when you look at things objectively, it's difficult to come to any conclusion other than that there has been criminal corruption and bribery take place even in those apparently austere, honest, upright places, where everyone there was above suspicion... LOL

So now if you take the same yardstick and examine investment companies and projects and 'opportunities,' you'd have to think that it's possible that criminal fraud is actually just a systematic mainstay of normal government and business, and has been for a large number of years! And yep, you'd be right.

Unfortunately, the way propaganda operates on the simple minds of the ordinary public means that people love property and real estate, and they think mining is this huge great industry where vast sums of money are ladled out for big industrial plant and equipment, and exploration, and technology and container ships, and labor and everything. And so if someone shows you some pretty pictures of ships, mining equipment, and lots of land and themselves at an office desk and sticks a 'Doctor' in front of their name, this means that there's a lot of money involved and everything is kosher and everything will be all right... 

It's probably a scam. No, wait. It is certainly a scam.

You see the difference between that rubbish and the real thing is Rex Tillerson is an Eagle Scout. A whole bunch of families and kids who go away on weekends together know him - like, they actually literally do know him more or less on a personal basis.

He doesn't have to say 'Doctor' Rex Tillerson to gain respect.

You want to be very careful right now of all the kinds of 'olden days' investment plans and schemes and especially, 'hard bricks and mortar' or 'rock solid investments' or even 'real estate.' 

We are living in a world of Doomsday Preppers, and self-reliant outdoors-men and women, WiFi communications, digital transactions, data streaming, Netflix - all of that kind of thing. 

Today's real estate has no basis of reality in the levels economic flows of money inside the domestic economy, and they are being held up in capital prices by a completely fraudulent banking system with no underlying hard money reserves and insufficient retail trade in cities and towns to justify the kinds of valuations that are being asserted and promoted. And mining is dominated by a small handful of global corporations holding way too much debt in a climate that has deflationary tendencies across the board.

Thousands of people are getting caught everyday in real estate scams and frauds and all these olden days 'IPO' style fund raising documents or websites. It's all rubbish and a total fraudulent carry on designed to thieve money from the naiive. But people do cling onto silly ideas - and that goes for the victims as well as for the crooks. They both are locked into ways of thinking that disallow them from seeing the bleeding obvious, or admitting they are tactically and strategically wrong.

(If) Not For Love Nor Money?

Lee Stranahan just got kicked off YouTube. Again. LOL. He was posting facts on the so-called 'protesters' at Charlottesville - about how some of them had been present in the Ukraine doing the 'Euromaidan' so-called 'civil insurgency' there that eventually got rid of that President.

But let's move onto a slightly different theme: money, rather than exclusively power as such.

I look out from my office window, down at the streets below and realize just exactly how intellectually disconnected I am from the world outside. How many people walking by have the single foggiest clue that this old brick building is one of the most stunning examples of Art Deco period architecture in the world? 

So, money...

Money has recently come to have an even more cloudy definition in the minds of many many analysts - including the esteemed 'Rasputin' of Wall Street Bear fame. There is this notion abroad currently along the lines that 'xyz doesn't buy you this, or that and therefore it isn't money.'

Money however, is actually partly a reflection of the society in which we live. If 'xyz' (currency token) does buy for a person in that society, that which he or she wants, and not things they do not want, then it is money. Money is about society and is wrapped up in what a particular society does and what its people are doing at the given time. Money simply does not exist in a vacuum apart from human beings. Sure, of course, human beings still have needs that require to be met, and for these some form of functioning exchange for the needs is absolutely necessary. But there is always a nexus between needs and wants and most importantly, the ways of people. The mechanisms that function in that nexus are what constitute real money - that is, the intrinsic value upon which real money tokens may be based.

I am so disconnected to other people as a whole that if someone wished to buy something from me (I can't imagine what!) it would be senseless for them to try and tender cash money or bank notes - automatically if they did that they would get my second tier game.

William Powell, I think, doing um, Philo Vance...?
Must be. 

I mean just how could you buy an original hand-written set of research notes on the occult by Howard Phillips * (and I need not say his last name). How much could I possibly even consider selling such a thing for?! You know, especially if it were virtually unique in the kinds of things it actually contained within the body of the text.

No. I'm afraid if you were Warren Buffet or George Soros you simply would not have the money - or the kinds of money - to make me part with this kind of treasure voluntarily.

Occult Dogma and Why You Can Dismiss It

Those of you who have been reading here for some time will know that I have - unlike the great Christopher Lee, who actually had a reputation as an occultist and of course certainly had the celebrity profile on account of the body of his movie work to be thought of as one - a very large and extensive collection of books on the occult. Lee didn't have one although people assumed he must have had one.

Though let me put it another way however - my collection is not just any old collection of occult titles: I really do possess occult works of great note and even of historical significance.

I am not an occultist in the sense of practicing anything that may be considered occult in the usual or traditional sense though I'm starting to realize that this may - well, in fact would - not be looked upon in quite the same way by others. You see I suppose what other people at large are not doing, will likely be viewed by them therefore as 'unorthodox' and 'dark!' LOL

Enter by the narrow door, though, isn't it said?

There is dogma in this world almost everywhere you happen to look - and yet you can distinguish a master chef from all others by what he doesn't do compared to the rest. Now I'm not going to tell you (to be distracted here for a few moments) the sin of many cooks - because there will be many who will want to dispute it with me, but I have never seen a truly great cook use certain ingredients that are regularly listed in recipes, even by 'experts...' It is not the syrup of, but it has got something to do with corn... Mmn. No, never in the hands of a great master. NEVER. So much then for what you have considered 'French haute cuisine' - if you care to believe me. Which you do not have to.

It is of course nowadays also absolutely commonplace to speak about the dogma of churches and of various common religious beliefs and belief systems. And of course, so utterly easy to decry it or them. They make huge popular movies about it and suddenly every man and his dog is an expert in ancient Sumerian!! 

A scene from Dennis Wheatley's 'The Devil Rides Out'

And today, because of the internet, there is just so much written and expressed about the occult, various dark or sinister secret societies and covens and all kind of related things... How much of it is dogma in the same way that a lot of religious teachings are today just dogma with no genuine factual original basis anymore?

Allow me to present to you a picture and then ask you to apply the standard 'as above so below' concept - or at least consider what is in the picture as a metaphor - and then tell me what you think an apex evil predator is more like; which one of these two things in the pic it is more like.

Some people are diligent in the way they acquire money and material wealth, and power over other people - they work constantly away at these pursuits. And then they get, money and wealth and power.

...And then, as if seemingly out of nowhere, another creature comes onto the scene.

Tell me, which one is more sinister - the goat or the dragon?

The Expert's Guide

Have you noticed - you probably have - how there are all these pages on the web everywhere: 'the beginner's guide to...' something or other.

I presume they think you need a degree to be able to smoke a cigar as an expert.

Maybe you won't be able to enjoy something unless you have an advanced University education.

Anyway since you are here, you get to have my astonishingly arrogant thinking lavished upon you - and today, we shall be discussing the capacity for the market to send out an obvious winner (race horse) at the luxury odds of 9/1.

This is Shiraz, with the world's best horseman on board

I refer to last Saturday's Randwick Winter Challenge (Race) Winner - Shiraz. 

Shiraz is a horse that can, in theory, gain a start in a Cox Plate - which is the most serious, most important real horse race in Australasia; it could, in theory, win such a race.

Shiraz is a serious, professional, straight-on, intelligent, and competitive sort of race horse. It's been in extremely high class company in its last set of engagements and it hasn't hit the winner's circle for those few starts - which was understandable. Many good, traditional style trainers allow a horse to gain experience and lots of race practice before they push them to the limits with a direct view to 'win.'

Shiraz is by no means any kind of certainty either to start or to win the Cox this year - but the point I'm really making is that it should never have been let to go to the starting gates at the price that they fielded it. So much for those 'in the know;' no one, evidently, knew anything. The horse won well.

I backed it. 

Randwick - but watch the people, not just the horses

So what this all about? What's my message or underlying theme?

Horse race gambling is a skill that relies on patience, and high levels of observation skills.

More than half the race information available to the observing eye, is not just in the horses but also in the people around the horses. 

There are not enough movies and stories about race winning 'detectives' - that is, the detective of the winning horse! The winner is a mystery before the race and an obvious thing afterwards. But frankly, the process of discovering the winner is similar to the mystery story profile of fiction books dealing with murders and crime mysteries.

The guy wears a fedora, hangs around bars and drinks alcohol, and listens to what is uttered from loose lips - and sometimes reads in between the silences thrown from faces that don't want to be silent.

A good racing 'winning horse' detective is good at human psychology and is able to make observations about the standard behaviours of trainers and owners, and compare these with when those people believe they are about to make a bunch of money.

This really is Mickey Spillane, btw

Horse racing is not crooked to this extent - you can't tell an animal what to do. Sometimes they just do what they want and not what you want. Some horses want to win sometimes and they do.

And so to give you a direct piece of information that you can use whether you are an experienced gambler or a novice or not a gambler at all - the way to assess this year's Cox is to focus everything else around the horse Shiraz. And by this I mean that if they start the race with some hot favourite far too short against a horse like Shiraz, then it will be a false favourite and you can afford to bet on something else. Not necessarily Shiraz - because by the time of the race, Shiraz too may have firmed too far in.

And - the way to think about any mystery is to play the part of the good observer...

Shove your fedora on your head, go out to where the barley-corn flows and listen, and watch, and think and assess, and consider. By and by, along will come an occasion and you will be in possession of vital knowledge and information, and others will not, and THEN and only then, must you or even can you, bet.

It's a culture. It's a life skill. You can spend the whole of your life believing if you like, that earning a living, or having a job and earning money is what it's all about and how you support yourself - but it isn't true. 'Winning' money is the ONLY way to make money, serious money. Windfalls - even if they are from entrepreneurship - are the ONLY way to make serious money. Windfalls are about placing yourself or your bucket in the path of what will be cast by the strong wind...

And this is about observation and deduction and intellect. It has nothing whatsoever to do with earning anything. 

A couple of days ago, Rolls Royce launched their new  'Phantom VIII.' The bulk of the market that will buy it consists of criminals and dictators and others who have grabbed power where there already exists a flow of wealth - such as, for an obvious case, in the Middle Eastern Oil 'nations.'

This is Fred Astaire's Rolls Royce on temporary display in London
right now

You will never be able to 'earn' your way into such wealth no matter how much advanced academic education you have indulged in. Those already 'there' are going to see to it you don't step on their toes. And they a very greedy people and won't give you even any of what they have. If you think they have given you some of it, they will control you and 'it.' You will have no freedom. And you may end up with nothing. You could, however, take a leaf out of the Clintons and take er '*s' to get such access. You could know all the secrets of the criminal money launderers and tax-dodgers because you were an accountant in Luxembourg and end up the head of the Euro-Group as a result. And that kind of thing works in the short term.

Or, you could just wait and observe all these fools. And bye and bye, they will lead us all to great prosperity.

And by and by, you will be able to pick their pockets while they are 'leading' us.
