  • Some 70 countries are in or at risk of debt distress - a record number that has the World Bank sounding the alarm. Debt defaults by these emerging and developing countries could lead the world into a global financial crisis perhaps even on par with the Great Depression of 1929. The pattern is clear from three previous debt waves: the Latin American debt crisis of the 1980s, Asian financial crisis of the 1990s, and the global financial crisis triggered by the 2007 US subprime crisis.

    The current market/economy is unnecessarily tougher for boomers/senior citizens, I’m used to just buying and holding assets which doesn’t seem applicable to the current rollercoaster market plus inflation is catching up with my portfolio. I’m really worried about survival after retirement.

      The problem is that economics is a pseudoscience and is closely linked to power, so changes in economic models are not convenient for the people in power because their interests and power would be affected. For them it is more convenient to continue accumulating power while blaming the individual to avoid an organization and rebellion of the masses.

    Alan Watts had a great analogy regarding the "value" of what we call money... I'll paraphrase:
    The great depression was a shortage of the CONCEPT we call money. All of the same materials and goods existed in both times of prosperity and in times of disparity. Imagine carpenters showing up at the job site one morning and the boss saying "No work today fellas. We're all out of inches." One worker asked "Inches of wood?" and the boss replied "No, we're just all out of the concept we call inches."

      governments debt are different then private debt but its only TRUE for USA, China, UK, Japan and Europe this is because these 4 countries + whole Europe were able to "Print" by "Quantitative easing" almost unlimited amount of USD, RMB, GBP, JPY, EUR. These 5 major currencies where being used as the World Reserved Currency as USD being the biggest allows them to "export" its currency depreciation/inflation throughout the world allows them to print money out of thin air. These 4 major countries + Europe able to create/print unlimited amounts of money out of thin air to be used to buy/Imports Goods and Services from the world, where the rest of the world requires actual Good & Services to get USD/RMB, GBP, JPY, EUR as Reserved in other for them to buy/import other Good & Services from the world... meaning The World other then these 4 nations + Europe almost similar to private debt. That does not meant they cant print money out of thin air, they can, but there will be a limit on how much much money they can print until it has become hyper inflation except for USA, China, UK, Japan and Europe. Thats why Japan has a national debt of almost 300% of GDP never goes bankrupts.

      There is nothing wrong with using debt for economic development -- it's the same as taking a loan to start a factory, as long as you make enough to pay off your interest and eventually your principle, the debt allows you to bring the factory online much faster than you would if you had to save money to open the factory.
      What's breaking down here is the "as long as you make enough money" part. When countries don't make sound investments, the debt become unrepayable, sending them into crisis.

      The China "debt trap" narrative has recently been debunked by the British Debt Justice and World Bank data. They found that African countries owe 3x more to Western banks, asset managers and oil traders than to China, and are charged double the interest. 12% of Africa's external debt was owed to China lenders, compared to 35% to Western private creditors.
      China has since cancelled the debt for 17 African nations.

    The elephant in the room here is easy access to credit on the private debt markets it seems very easy to blame the West or any other lender. But, in reality the problem is systemic as these markets were set up primarily to service that's held by more advanced economies than the ones covered in this short video. The regulations applying to these can be a little to nil and as such anyone can obtain credit, that is a debt accumulation, through them. What we need to do is we need to have something along the lines of a un Charter specifically geared towards regulating developing Nation debt. Otherwise as these countries grapple with rapidly expanding populations, economies and the all to unfortunately common corruption issues they will continue to accumulate debt the down the line will simply remain unserviceable.

Interest rate is a signal to the economy that it is over-leveraged and need to build up savings again and reduce borrowings/spending. Bailouts and money-printing prevented all these. It encouraged wasteful and inefficient allocation of resources. It encouraged moral hazard. It prevented prudent companies from gaining market shares. It transfers wealth from the population to those who has access to credit/borrowings. Mind you, we did not come to this conclusion after the 2008 crisis. We warned the world way before the crisis that this will happen. We predicted that the govt will bailout those big banks and that the central banks will print money like crazy, and we said that the money-printing will be never-ending and that there's no bailout strategy.

If you press that button, all financing immediately stops and will never come back. It means your bank would be bankrupt immediately and when you catch on and want to get your money, the ATM would already be empty and the bank not only won't open, there won't be anything there if it did. No one will take your call. That's how that really goes down. And it's not just the banks. Property development stops. Salaries aren't paid. Your pension is pooof, gone, just like that.

      It was not China that first expressed interest in building a port in Sri Lanka, it was Canada in 2003 but ultimately withdrew their interest. Sri Lanka wanted to go ahead with the port, so approached India and USA for financing. India and US declined. Sri Lanka then turned to China.
      China agreed to fund it in 2007, a full 6 years before the BRI (2013) was even launched.
      Upon completion, Sri Lanka realized Sri Lanka did not have enough experience in managing a port. So decided to lease it out to an experienced company to help pay for outstanding debts of their country. Sri Lanka first approached Indian and Japanese firms whom rejected the offer. So Sri Lanka once again turned to China whom struck a 99-year lease deal in exchange for 1.12B usd, which Sri Lanka can help pay off their outstanding debts.
      Therefore, as you can clearly see, China "debt trap diplomacy" was invented by western media.

    This is what happens when the issuance of money is controlled by private hands and why our financial system is called a debt-based financial system. These private bankers loan out more money than what is available in the real economy and that is why we have periodic recessions and depressions. It was created that way!

    The government currently lacks concrete strategies to address inflation. Inflationary pressures are impacting various sectors, including stocks, housing, and commodities, causing their prices to rise. It is not advisable to keep your money idle and wait for a market crash. Instead, it is prudent to put your money to work by starting with cautious investments and gradually increasing your pace as prices decline further. Withdrawing a significant amount of money, exceeding $500K, from my account at this time presents a challenging decision.

      It was not China that first expressed interest in building a port in Sri Lanka, it was Canada in 2003 but ultimately withdrew their interest. Sri Lanka wanted to go ahead with the port, so approached India and USA for financing. India and US declined. Sri Lanka then turned to China.
      China agreed to fund it in 2007, a full 6 years before the BRI (2013) was even launched.
      Upon completion, Sri Lanka realized Sri Lanka did not have enough experience in managing a port. So decided to lease it out to an experienced company to help pay for outstanding debts of their country. Sri Lanka first approached Indian and Japanese firms whom rejected the offer. So Sri Lanka once again turned to China whom struck a 99-year lease deal in exchange for 1.12B usd, which Sri Lanka can help pay off their outstanding debts.
      Therefore, as you can clearly see, China "debt trap diplomacy" was invented by western media.

    “It is not an expression of the target for the average, it is a maximum cap, and our formulation also has other elements in it which differ from typical transaction.”

      The China "debt trap" narrative has recently been debunked by the British Debt Justice and World Bank data. They found that African countries owe 3x more to Western banks, asset managers and oil traders than to China, and are charged double the interest. 12% of Africa's external debt was owed to China lenders, compared to 35% to Western private creditors.
      China has since cancelled the debt for 17 African nations.
