The Unfair Advantage

Today, most people are trying to solve the problems of taxes, debt, inflation, and retirement by working harder, getting out of debt, saving money, living below their means, and investing for the long term in the stock market. Life will become more expensive for those who insist on following this line of thinking.

The Unfair Advantage

Today, those who have a strong financial education have an unfair advantage over those who do not.

With a sound financial education, a person can use taxes, debt, inflation and retirement to become rich rather than poor. Conversely, the forces of taxes, debt, inflation, and retirement rule those who do not have a strong financial education.

Inflation is often called the "invisible tax", which is hardest on the poor, the old, savers, low-income workers, and fixed income retirees.

Today, many families are entering into financial bankruptcy due to retirement and medical costs.

Avoid being robbed blind by the coming increases in taxes (direct and indirect), debt, and inflation.

Graph A: Life is about to become more expensive all over the world.




Graph B: An increase in government controls and taxes to cover the increase in debt.





Graph C: Mortgage resets causing more increases in Graphs A and B - that is, if and only if the world economy does not simply collapse under the weight of all this debt, taxes, and toxic money.
