What a great conference yesterday! Thanks, Chris, for setting it up. It was amazing to be in a room with such awesome people. It was such a privilege to give and receive great ideas with each other. Looking forward to the next conference and beyond
I mentioned a book that was perspective-changing for me yesterday. It is a free download (pdf). It is The Alpha Strategy by John Pugsley.
You can download it here: http://www.biorationalinstitute.com/zcontent/alpha_strategy.pdf (It will open in a new window when you click on it). I discovered the book from Jim Rawles of www.survivalblog.com and Patriots: A Novel of Survival in the Coming Collapse (also a perspective-changing book).
What are your most recommended books — the books that rocked your world?
The most important book I’ve read in the last 20 years that is not my Bible is “The Black Swan” by Nassim Taleb. He completely torpedoes the media labeling of “100 year events,” and shows us the world is changed by the outliers, the unexpected events. What happened in 2007-2008 was not a Black Swan, it was a self inflicted gunshot wound. What will happen in 1-5 years will be an outlier—we know it will be bad, but what occurrences or combinations are unknown.
I’m looking forward to reading Alpha Strategy. Heard good things about it. Thanks for its inclusion.
I think that the Alpha Strategy and The Creature from Jekyll Island should be required reading for anyone above the age of 12. It is incredible how easy it is to understand the con if you actually take the time to understand it. I give both as gifts to my adults friends along with an American Silver Eagle. Best way to wake people up!
A third book, one that I have not been able to find but read excerpts from is “Money, the Greatest Hoax on earth” by Merrill Jenkins Sr. Well worht the read based on the excerpts I have found.
Thanks for the link!
I would have to say Crash Course is near the top of my list. The video’s were my big eye opener. I just purchased 2 copies of the book for my family for Christmas… has any one read the actual book yet?
The other book is The Big Short… It is very specifically related to the CDS market but it really lets you see how the big investors are thinking about things.
Crunchy I noted in this version that the appendix is missing, with items and their estimated shelf lives. For that reason in the past I had gotten the hard copy. I can share the appendix by typing it up if that is of interest.
Such as:
Beans dried
Lima – 10 years
Pinto – 10 years
Red – 10 years
Corn starch 5 – 10 years
Gelatin 3 years
Honey – Indefinite
Jams – Indefinite
Yes, if you could type the Appendix as a reply to this post, that would be awesome! You would be a hero. I can’t find it posted anywhere in the internet. Thanks in advance!
Hey Chris,
Just wanted to take a moment out of my life to thank you for all the life changing decisions/events that have occurred because of the information you've brought to the forefront when I discovered you, DTOM, & the SOL academy.
I shunned the psychopaths in my life, closed my facebook, took every hour of free time to see the academy and read A LOT (a first for me), learned that I have a deep innate thirst for knowledge and teaching, jumped head first on topics I would have NEVER taken an interest in if not for waking up (finance, economics, politics, psychology, to name a few), and view everything in a completely different, but forward thinking and more intricate way.
What you say is so true ... "once your eyes are open, you can never close them again" - EVER.
The magnitude of all the changes that I've made in my life because of the SOL academy are so huge that I can't even begin to put a word on it. It's like a golden seed of life, love & truth, planted in my mind that is making me realize what does matter, what is real, and what I want be at the end of the day to myself, loved ones, and the world.
Hope you're having a well-deserved and wonderful time with your family. A toast to you, the individuals in our group, and all the great and positive things to come despite such times.
Peace.
- Irving A.

You really need to sign up at the Sons Of Liberty Academy! I have been researching, as Chris has, for the last 5 years and have found out many things that have really changed my way of thinking! After signing up with Chris I have learned a lot more and he has vilified that which I have already learned!
Check it out!
He will BLOW your mind and secure your future! Chris Duane ROCKS!!!

I just finished the 10 modules of the Sons of Liberty Academy. I have never been so educated and aware, in such a short time.
I now have a game plan and see my role more clearly. It all makes sense.
It is very important to understand what is going on in our world and how to fight against it most effectively.
45 hours of video is a lot of information (I spend 3 weeks day and night, going through the course).
I would look for information on my own and it would take me a lot of time but to have it done and just to be able to build on that is great.
I do appreciate it to be free otherwise I would not be able to take it.
Thanks;
Raj

I just wanted to drop you a note and thank you. I've been studying the Academy, about to start module 5.
The information I've observed to this point has opened my mind to new ideas, and also reaffirmed some beliefs I've always had. I feel a tremendous sense of confidence now, the fear is subsiding, and I'm excited to complete the Academy and find the direction I can take with my future, as well as my friends and family.
As Bill Hicks said, the next revolution will be a revolution of ideas. I'm glad to be a part of this program.
Many thanks,
Michael

"Silver Shield,
The Sons of Liberty Academy is really fantastic! I highly recommend the Academy and the hard work and dedication to the truth that Silver Shield has put forth for defenders of Freedom and Liberty.
The betrayal of the Tea Party loyalist is becoming evident. A rebellion is brewing day by day, and the Power Elite have every right to be very worried.
Awaken People don't be fooled again! Join the Academy.."

My only regret is that I did not have this knowledge 20 years ago. The Sons of Liberty Academy is truly life changing.
If anyone is on the fence about joining the Academy, I will tell them they are doing themselves, their family and the country a injustice by not taking it.
Don’t let the money stand in the way, the course is invaluable and will pay for it self many times over with the finance info within the course.
I have two masters degrees and the Sons of Liberty Academy has been of greater benefit than all the “formal” education I have received.
Thanks Chris! You are a true Patriot and hero! -Randy H.

"I am very excited about what I've learned so far! I have 3 more modules to complete. I've gone through a few of them twice, especially when there is history discussed. I find that very interesting. I am going to run through the entire Academy again, and review all the additional materials linked below the videos. There is so, so much information. Thank you for your hard work putting this together.
I am spreading the word."

"I have just finished watching Module Six and continue to be amazed at the deception perpetrated on the American people.
I applaud your work and thank you sincerely for these eye-opening truths you have laid out.
I never had an interest in politics or our monetary system because it seemed too confusing, however, the simple way it is taught in the Academy has far surpassed any education I have received in my 35 years on this earth."

"In just a few short months, I've gone from being a skeptic to being a believer.
I'm a born-again Christian, a veteran, and a patriot, but I'm also a realist.
I now prep and am protecting my assets.
DTOM has played a big part in my new education.
Heck, I love the T-shirts, too!
Thanks for doing a great job. Now I Get It!!!!"

Thank you for giving me the wisdom of awareness.
I have been sharing it with others, but there are so many more to reach. I am not afraid of the changes we will soon see, but confident that I am prepared to handle them. We are building a strong group here in my area and have shared your website with several key people of influence here.
Thank God I found you and took the time to go through the Academy. At the risk of sounding overly dramatic, my life will never be the same, and for that I am very grateful.
