About this episode

Has a World War III like event already been set in motion? You’re likely already on alert and looking closely at money-printing, rising inflation, the potential banking crisis, the massive amount of debts at the country and consumer levels.

Today’s two-part episode is an opportunity to gather knowledge and understanding about what’s happening right now so that you can devise the best strategy to survive financial collapse. Arthur Hayes, a brilliant macro-investor and entrepreneur is joining me and to expose the signs of an impending financial crisis that will be detrimental for people caught off guard.

In the first part of this discussion, we’re going to explore why political instability is a greater concern, what it’s the biggest predictor of, and why energy is the anchor no one is talking about, and exactly what you’ll need to know that is leading to even greater inflation.

Meet Arthur Hayes, the unflinching co-founder of BitMEX and a pivotal figure in the crypto world, known for his controversial yet insightful perspectives. You’re going to need to lean into this episode as this financial maverick tackles the daunting challenges of inflation, massive debt, and looming banking crises with candor and astute acumen.

Stay tuned and discover the big disturbance Arthur sees on the horizon over the next 3 to 6 months, and why he says that Japan is the more successful version of China.

Arthur Hayes Quotes:


“Every time we’ve had a financial crisis over the last 80 years, [...] the government rushes in and they essentially destroy some part of the free market because they want to save the system.”


“We’ve proven over thousands of years of human history that printing money is not growth…”


“The problem is when inflation shows up, it’s when you exhaust the cheap labor, when you exhaust the cheap energy…”
