The world is rapidly shifting away from currency towards electronic payments. In fact, in some countries they have basically outlawed the very legal tender they were previously issuing. In this episode we discuss why this is all happening, and why – when it comes to money – You’ll own none and be happy, according to your central planners

In our ongoing series of ''You'll own nothing & be happy'', this one is about technology. The truth that the industry probably doesn't want you to know about, and how you can reclaim your power and have it all for free.

The concept of ownership and property rights has been a core part of our history, our laws and our freedom. Most people believe they have the right to own title to things and protect those things our homes, our businesses, our financial assets, etc. But we are moving towards a world of You own nothing and be happy and this is being pushed upon us both aggressively through the WEF, but also covertly through the idea of the subscription model. In this episode, we are going to unveil the pure evil of this movement and what you can do to fight back and regain your control.

In this episode I talk about the recession we find ourselves in, how similar and different it will be to past recessions, how to transition to it, how to prepare for it, and what opportunities it will present to contrarians and those seeking to be unconstrained.

As we move to a bear market and what some would call a recession, it is important to understand that markets are just collections of humans and their perception of value. Understanding that human mindset and how we deal with the changing times is important in positioning for growth in your asset investing.

Weve probably all seen and be entertained by TV shows on Extreme Frugality those people who do insane things to save money, dumpster diving, etc. They are obsessed with not spending money. On this episode I want to talk about balanced frugality. How you can do amazing things to save money, yet not be some oddball that others laugh at as you quest towards being unconstrained.

As I record this, the Fed Reserve is on the cusp of more interest rate increases in an attempt to curb inflation. But this is one big game of illusion, shadow economics and making numbers look the way you want to present them, rather than fixing the problems of the world population.

When you travel, you meet a lot of interesting people. If you are not from around their parts, they let their guard down and tell you what is really going on. These simple conversations are important to bring us back to reality and compare the contrarian lifestyle with the traditional. Oh, and there will be stories about ducks!

Since the 1990s, when China entered the World Trade Organization, there has been a euphoric move towards outsourcing to cheaper countries for manufacture and labor services. Although this brings down pricing, and helps curb inflation rise, it means the emerging market countries benefit while the client countries reduce expenses, but adjust their labor force accordingly. In this episode I want to explore the current and future trends of de-globalization, when countries retreat to their own borders and what both causes this, and what impact it has for all of us going forward.

Government & their best intentions can destroy the hope and future of a country. Whether it is from corruption, or just poor management, putting all of your faith & trust in central planners never seems to work out. In this episode, I tell the story of exactly that - government taking away the future from a country with so much promise and trying to sell it as a victory for the average Joe.

All over the world, the dreaded ''R'' word is being thrown about. For many people, they never remembered what a recession was like. For some, particularly here in Australia where they had a bull market economy for the past 30 years, memories of recessions may either be faint or non-existent depending on age. In this episode I'm going to tell you how to survive (and thrive) in a recession and what you need to do to adjust your mindset.

Having landed in Australia after being away for 3 years, I report on what I discovered and also what I acknowledge about life and our future. I talk about strategy in how to overcome the challenges of our world based on what I've seen others successfully doing.

Most of this seems obvious when you look at it in the rear view mirror, but there were times in my life where debt took over my world. Rather than retreating into a fetal position in the corner, I made hard decisions and it kept me from being destroyed by it. In this episode, Im going to go through the methodology that I used to remove debt from my life and become unconstrained.

It is rare, but from time to time I get asked about this phenomenon. It happens in many countries, particularly those that have a more socialized culture and politic, but it is the #1 reason why the individual is constrained and the country's potential is curtailed.

I wanted to share with you how my family does this, because although I've been telling you to run your life like a business for a while, I never explained how to structure it to your advantage - both to handle the impact of income changes, but also to protect yourself against predators.

I discovered a TV series on the Reality TV network called Self Employed, which has the description Entrepreneur Jonathan Morris travels the country to share the inspirational stories and new challenges of small business owners and their journeys to building their dream jobs.. In this episode, Im going to get real with you about small businesses - why they succeed and fail and why a TV series sends a dangerous message to those looking to break free and become unconstrained.

Here's my review, thoughts, musings, etc. about the new HBO TV Documentary series ''The Anarchists'' that just came out. Considering that the Unconstrained share so much in common here with Anarcho-Capitalists, I thought I'd chime in with my perspective on this phenomenon.

Chris Odegard is the guy behind theprolificinvestor.net and the author of the book ''Get off Your A$$ and Manage Your Money: Why You Need Alternative Investments''. On this episode, we are discussing alternative investments including ATM machines and other interesting ideas you may not have had.

Life is complicated. Surely, you cant be expected to manage your own life, right? You deserve the benefits of just showing up where every child wins a prize. And why not? Your central planners have got your back and know what is good for you. These are cynical statements, if you didnt know that already. But in this episode lets just illuminate why putting your faith & trust in counterparties to have your back doesnt work out well particularly when they are the US Federal Reserve.

Being unconstrained has always been about active pursuit of freedom. Freedom from financial obligations, having the right to speak freely, freedom from overt surveillance and privacy, and freedom to travel. Anyone who achieves all of these things is a hero. And on todays episode I am going to introduce you to one of my heroes. A humble regular guy who did, what most people who dont enjoy those freedoms I have explained, what some could call a radical thing and left the country of his birth to find his utopia. You will see how I relate to Jerrys story in so many ways, but more important I think it validates why pursuing a life of being unconstrained is so important to all of us.
