Breaking News: A Game-Changing Book That Pulls No Punches Is Coming!

I am proud to announce a project that has been five years in the making and a year of intense, relentless writing. Together, Adrian C. Spitters and I have channeled our combined 75 years of experience in the financial services industry into what we believe is our most important and hard-hitting work to date—It Starts With Gold!

This is not just a book—it is a wake-up call, a rallying cry, and a gripping journey into the forces shaping our world since the March 2020 lockdowns. Those lockdowns were not just a health crisis; they were the beginning of a global reset. A reset designed to solidify control by financial elites who are quietly reshaping the world to serve their interests.

Reading like a high-stakes thriller, It Starts With Gold takes readers behind the curtain to reveal the truth about the World Economic Forum’s chilling slogan, “You will own nothing and be happy.” Let us be clear: this is not happiness. This is a trap—a dystopian vision where ownership is replaced with dependency, freedom is replaced with digital control, and humanity is ensnared in a system of engineered compliance.

The foundation of this system is built on fiat money—a fake system of wealth constructed on sand—and its evolution into central bank digital currencies and blockchain technology. While blockchain is marketed as innovation, we expose how it may become the ultimate tool for control, setting digital traps that will strip away autonomy and sovereignty.

This book is your blueprint for resistance, resilience, and sovereignty. It provides actionable strategies to de-risk and rematerialize your life and assets into what is real: tangible wealth like gold, land, and human connection. Adrian and I challenge you to reject the engineered dependency being forced upon the world and take meaningful steps to secure your future.

With 75 years of combined experience in financial services, Adrian and I have seen firsthand the dangers of a system designed to enrich the few at the expense of the many. We wrote It Starts With Gold to empower you to break free from the illusions of wealth, ownership, and control and to protect what truly matters before it is too late.

Mark your calendars—January 2025. The truth starts here. The fight for your future starts now. And it all begins with gold. Are you ready to take precautions?
