Riding the Tides and Suggesting Solutions Here at the Daily Bell
Be prepared for the next great transfer of wealth. Buy physical silver and storable food.

Like most people, I have lived my life swimming through tides of confusion, tides often created by others who desire to control us for their own desired purposes. I have, for whatever reason, a burning desire to “know” the world around me.
It has led me to visit dozens of countries on every continent in the world and to do business in many. And always to ask questions … many questions … of those with whom I interact on my journey through this “life maze” of ours.
I first confronted this desire directly while sitting on a beach on Little Palm Island Resort. I remember telling this story to the late, great, libertarian Harry Browne – a mentor and dear friend who participated in my first free-market publishing venture.
I told him how I suddenly felt the need for a pen and paper, yet I had not written anything in years – since business school, to be exact.
I had no idea what was propelling me to desire that pen and paper. After all, the sun was shining on the private beach I was on with my wife and everything was so serene and relaxing. Why would anyone want and pen and paper? Especially someone who doesn’t or didn’t write?
Still to this day I do not know the answer. But what I do know is this. When the pen and paper were in my hands I wrote 11 pages without raising my head or even thinking, for that matter.
The whole experience was very surreal. I ended up writing what became the blueprint for FMNN and The Daily Bell and several books, some ghost-written and some under my own name.
Whatever it was that spawned that moment, it has never subsided. In fact, the understanding of the way the world works and the clarity of vision I have developed on a macro level is clear. Not always comfortable, I will admit.
But with this understanding I have been able to live and work and travel in many countries around the world and do so with “eyes wide open.” I have little time for the trivia …
