The changing perspective I've noticed recently

[midnight rambler]

I mostly cater to a successful clientele with money. We work on a system of their home which ages and needs service after a few years. I advise them what we propose doing will last (over 10 years, I won't get more specific here, it's just several years) before needing more service or updates. In the past when I told them "what we do here will last 10 or more years" I generally got no comment from them about their expectations in this regard, it's what they want to hear, trouble-free operation for over 10 years. What I've noticed recently is when I say this more often than not they reply, "I won't be around that far into the future." What's noteworthy is that we're talking about boomers who don't see themselves living 10 more years (like they don't see a future for themselves). That perspective is becoming more common from what I'm seeing.

every one of my boomer friends has an illness that could take them out

[midnight rambler]

What I’m picking up on is they don’t see themselves living very far into the future because of not surviving TEOTWAWKI, not because of dying from illness.”

[ziero0]

Possibly it is you they don't expect to be around in 10 years?

[midnight rambler]

No, they themselves specifically say, "I won't be around in XX years."

A few weeks ago a Utah woman passed away. They discovered her husband in the freezer. He had been dead 12-13 years. His corpse had a notarized statement attached stating his wife had not killed him. One guy commenting on the article said he wished he knew the brand of the freezer as his experience was they only lasted 10 years. I suggested to him that he attend the estate sale.

Maybe when they say they won't be around in ten years, they mean they won't be at that location. People do move around alot these days.

Well, on the positive side, at least they are awake and realize something is coming... (And by TEOWAWKI, you mean The end of the world as we know it, right?)

I kind of get that feeling too sometimes--ominous, wondering what insane crap is on the way. I've heard about a collapse for forever (maybe woke up to this info 10 years ago), and then kind of forgot about it. And then for a little while I got sucked in by the happy talk on Fox, telling me everything was great and the economy was booming. But then I woke up from that, and have been listening to Greg Mannarino talking about how when this whole thing comes down, it's going to be epic, like nothing the world has ever seen before (apparently this is the biggest bubble ever???)

But most times I just try to block it all out--there's nothing we can do anyway, other than prepare and prepare some more.

Makes perfect sense for boomers like me who are already over 70.

:rolleyes:

Didn't you hear, we all only have 10 years left before global warming destroys the world (video was published in 2018, 2 years ago).

All of your clients are super savvy folks who understand that it's the weather that's going to take us all out.

The good thing is that when the true descendants of Israel leave this world the "jew bastards" won't be able to follow.

Deuteronomy 23:2. A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.

When I started listening to Alex Jones and Dr. Stan Monteith in the mid to late 1990s and when I moved onward from my new-found "patriotism" and "constitutional republic" conservatism toward studying false events (also called "false flag" events") in world history prior to 9-11-01, it was basically when I started focusing on 9-11-01 event FROM DAY ONE of that event that I started experiencing "insane crap" from close friends and relatives and well-known leaders and broadcasters I had always respected. From 9-11-01 my entire "world" became very changed. People all around me were not communicating or conversing in sane reasonable ways. Their whole personality and minds slammed the door shut on me for wanting to discuss that event and my relatives referred derisively as that event had to do with "conspiracy theories" or "crazy conspiracy theorists." In other words, I became the crazy one to the people all around me. The inability to have discussions of certain events and issues based on reason and logic and rules of common civil and polite conversation is now everywhere.

Yes, I think we all went through that phase when we were in the early part of our awakening process.
About, the "economy is booming", some of those I respect for truth seeking and truth telling regarding false events still to this very day tell us that our USA economy is booming and even give attribution of acts of president Trump. A few of the Trump-supporting media and alt-media commentators realize they have to qualify their regard for president Trump with their reporting that the economy is in dire shape, not booming.

I remember when Greg Hunter on his USA Watchdog YouTube and website first introduced his close personal friend Mannarino to his show and followers. Such a nice sounding balanced commentator and well accomplished in the knowledge of investing/investments. Now apparently Greg M. is telling the truth that all is going big bad very soon and the middle class in the USA will be totally wiped out. Now while that is true and I am glad Greg M. is telling about that, that is a message that seems to be something that sells well to audiences like the ones who visit GSUS. It rings of truth telling in the face of the establishment and we like that. But it also sells when one has a YouTube or other platform where making income therefrom is sought. Don't know if Greg Mannarino has that kind of web platform. But I do notice, my speculation here only, that Greg Hunter has chosen not to have his close friend, Greg Mannarino, on his YouTube show in the last six months. Maybe Mannarino's message is beginning to sound subtly or covertly too much like anti-Trump rhetoric, which of course blows to bits the foundational ideas of Greg Hunter's work and popularity.

P.S. I really have lost a lot of my interest in the economic outlook, etc. I am not a moneyed person and I have not had luck at all in the few stock investments I have made.

I stopped watching Greg Hunter some time ago mainly because of his constant interruption of his guests answers and his stuttering. Throw in the fact that you can listen to an interview from most of his guests from years ago and they'll sound the same as recent interviews. Guys like Bill Holter, Dave Janda, John Williams, Gerald Celente, John Rubino, Rob Kirby, & Michael Pento have embarrassing prognostication skills. Jim Sinclair's predictions were the worst of them all.

I trust Mannarino as far as I can throw Fat Albert. I'll give you that people can change, but Mannarino can be thrown into a lump of many similar other guests as far as I'm concerned.

The bottom line is there's not much that can be done as an individual to offset the destruction of our society by our Sheeny Overlords. Perhaps the people that the OP has dealt with realize they are nearing the 18th hole and are trying to find some pleasure in their lives before they die or are cast aside/penalized because they're white and straight.

I like the case you make for all those named people, though since I have not taken in anything Mannarino has said for a very long time, I would not lump him in with the others and only know what Amanda conveys about him. But all the others have two common qualities. They all are moneyed successful and knowledgeable investors and they all predict the big bad bear bust and that is what has made them popular. Hunter keeps having all of them because they also play the role of truthful Christian men and supporters of president Trump which is Hunter's basic appeal to many. I finally had to move away from Hunter's shows because constant messages of support of all things Trump and all things "Zionist" just are too oxymoronic with true Christianity in my book.

P.S. Excepting Dave Janda whom I believe is of Jewish ancestry and possibly Jewish religion. Dr. Janda plays the role of learned doctor of medicine and smart USA patriot.

Thanks for your thoughts on all of those guys, including Mannarino. I only recently started watching him. So far, the main reason I like him is just that he's non-partisan, and basically says bankers rule the world and everyone is a puppet. He also sees no real difference between the parties, that bankers control both sides, and that the main goal (aside from looting the US and the world) is to keep the citizens distracted and fighting with each other (the cult of the left and the cult of the right), so we can never come together and do something about the REAL ENEMIES of the people, which are the central bankers. Mannarino says they will put Trump in for another four years b/c he's the "best friend the bankers ever had" (with all of his calls for lower rates or even negative rates). Mannarino also said Phase 1 of the China deal was a complete joke and unenforceable--comments over at zerohedge seemed to agree, basically saying the deal was a big win for the bankers. So, I guess we'll see if he's right about TPTB giving Trump another 4 years.

As for financial info, he pretty much says what others have said, which is that at some point, there's going to be a collapse, and that they are setting us up for a hyperinflationary disaster. Mannarino says if the Fed stops printing, the whole thing collapses and we end up in a Mad Max situation, which is also something I've heard from others. I guess time will tell.

As those other guys, Holter, John Williams, Celente, Kirby and Pento, they all seem the same to me--they all seem to think bad times will eventually come, but nobody seems to know when. Who knows? Maybe they are all wrong...I honestly don't know.

And as for Dave Janda, I never really bothered with him---he just felt like one of those Q people, always saying everything Trump does is great, which I absolutely don't agree with. Same for Greg Hunter--always saying everything Trump does is great, and still pushing the BS about the fake war on terror and evil Iran (he seems like another one of those zionists)

But I do agree with you in that I don't think there's anything any of us can do about what's happening and what's on the way.

But I do agree with you in that I don't think there's anything any of us can do about what's happening and what's on the way.

Two of the most lucid posters ever to bless our now-tiny GSUS forum. That their lucidity finds itself on such a pathetic obscure "forum" (which doesn't even allow posting images anymore) demonstrates just how dire our goyim Reality actually is...

"But I do agree with you in that I don't think there's anything any of us can do about what's happening and what's on the way. "

I do believe there is something each one of us can do as individuals.

We have the gifts of rationality and critical thinking.

We can shine the light of truth, or honest questioning and truth seeking on every single bit of garbage being thrown at us.

Truth is our main weapon and we are learning to use our weapon judiciously.

Fatalism is not the position of a Christian.

Exercise your gift of Faith for the glory of God.
