Ron Paul vs. Ellsworth Toohey

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Independent Thinking, Wealth

ron paul krugman
Ron Paul “debates” Paul Krugman in this video. I put debates in quotations because Paul Krugman is such a weaseling, intellectually and morally bankrupt scumbag it would be unjust to actually call this a “debate”, as if the individual men and ideas involved were in any way equals and equally valid ideas.

Paul Krugram is in fact a modern day, and real life Ellsworth Toohey (the villain of Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead). He is the man who has betrayed his own soul 100 times over, who hates the good in the world so much he attacks the good, for being good.

Paul Krugman is a man who has committed the highest moral and intellectual treason. He is a man who you could accurately call, in the 21st century, a “malicious scoundrel”.

And like Ellsworth Toohey, he is particularly good at manipulating and twisting everything little thing he can get his hands on.

I sincerely hope this man trips and breaks his own neck.

The History and Future of Money

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Independent Thinking, The 21 Convention, Wealth

This is a brand new speech on The21Convention.com given by level 3 CFA Gary Korolev. As the title states, it’s about the history and future of money. Gary is highly critical of fiat currency and central banking in the presentation, especially when it comes to the federal reserve of the united States.

For some of you, the concepts presented in this speech will be brand new. For others it will be a review. Regardless, I think everyone will enjoy it in full.

As the founder of The 21 Convention, and as someone who passionately f*cking hates the federal reserve, it’s a very welcomed sight at my own event.

In related news, and as discussed to a degree in the video, Texas Congressman Ron Paul is hours away from WINNING Iowa. For international readers who do not understand what this means: it’s a very, very, very, very good thing.

Relevant to the video, it’s a giant step towards abolishing the federal…

Peter Schiff: A Real Life Hank Rearden

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Independent Thinking, Wealth

You could actually say a real life Midas Mulligan/Hank Rearden hybrid, but who’s counting. Peter Schiff is a bad ass and drives at real fundamental issues in the face of the sheeple — defending the remaining producers left in this crumbling country.

I wonder how many people in the crowd even had a murky let alone clear concept of what unalienable rights are — and why they are by lights years upon light years, the most important thing that could be discussed by anyone right now so far as government is concerned.

And I love Peter’s question — what objective % of my own money should I keep?

Notice no one answers with the only correct answer possible: 100.

ps — I got in touch with Peter Schiffs people a few months ago about speaking at T21C. Got side tracked but shall be interesting to pick the discussion back up.

College Dropouts to Save America

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Lifestyle Design, Wealth

Found this neat article in the New York times. Here’s a quote.

If I were betting on the engines of future job creation, I wouldn’t put my money on college students cramming for tests and writing papers with properly formatted M.L.A.-style citations in order to bolster their résumés for careers in traditional professions and middle-management jobs in large corporate and government bureaucracies.

I’d put my money on the kids who are dropping out of college to start new businesses. If we want to get out of the jobs mess we’re in, we should hope that more will follow in their footsteps.

I mention this because it’s eerily reminiscent of my own life. As many of you know, I dropped out of college Spring 2010 when I failed “how to start a business”, for the second semester, in a row. Adding insult to injury, I had started a business from nothing at age 17, currently ran it at the time, continue to run it years later,…

Profits are Made on the Buy, not the Sell

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Wealth

During one of the speeches at The 21 Convention 2011 of Orlando Florida, one of the speakers said something pretty extraordinary. He said that — in regards to all areas of life, not just wealth, but even things like intimate relationships, friendships, etc — profits are made on the buy, not the sell.

I thought this was pretty profound, so I started thinking about it on an almost daily basis. In a distant sense, implementing it. The literal, physical results have been pretty profound, and strongly encouraging for continued use. I mean this across the board to.

So what’s the deal? Is it some magical thought process?

Of course not, it’s a reflection of reality, one very supporting of a strong self-esteem, in the sense that it aids you in accurately valuing your-self. Specifically your time, your money, your effort, your mental energy, your emotional energy, the products of your work, etc. It really gets you focused on where you are spending yourself. And it begs the question on every “transaction”: is this a wise choice for my value?

Is this…
