My shtf plan is mobility. First sign of bad things coming and I find my next country to live in. And they all take bitcoin.
What do you call a sign of bad things?
That is likely a per-country call. I live in South Korea so the first confrontation between North Korea/South Korea(US) that is likely to trigger a war will be followed by my logging into cheapair.com and find the first flight out of here.
If I was in the US, things like passing laws that would likely trigger an event or the debt bubble finally pops, or something happens where energy is disrupted. Any war with Russia or any country who can actually hit things with their bombs is an exit event.
Though my line in the sand that made me leave the US was the tax on being alive (Obamacare).
As a foreigner, may I ask your opinion about South America? Related to signs of bad things.
There are several South American countries. A 1000+% inflation rate is a good exit sign. If I lived in Venezuela and could leave I would.
Actually there are only a dozen. My interest is specially about how Brasilian political and economic crisis is seen worldwide.
Outside of Brazil we are all given propaganda that one side or the other want us to hear. From what I see they got rid of a corrupt socialist leader and elected a pro business leadership. Usually when I see pro socialist news attacking something it is usually a good thing. I have some hope for the new leaders to turn things away from the bad road it was going down. I had several Brasilian friends and girlfriend in Germany. They love the culture but do not want to go back mainly due to how unsafe and corrupt it is.
We are indeed given diffferent points of view, of course it depends on how much research you want to be doing to be able to discern what is propaganda (an opinion from people who expressly publish that opinion to further their own agenda) and what is more solid journalism. What doesn't help is the recent trend of spreading FUD and discrediting science and journalism, by those who want to use pseudo-science and pseudo--journalism to further their own agenda.
Anyway, from what I see pro-business corruption is increasing, the old boys network is taking over again and as a consequence a small elite will allocate more riches to itself at the expense of the rest. The Lava Jato scandal is just an example of this.
Edit: 20k Yuan, here we come!
