I STARTED THIS PODCAST by reading the first half of my two books for you. These are Butchered by “Healthcare” and Hormone Secrets. In return for getting them free, please review them on Amazon! You will find the full audio, ebooks, and paperbacks on Amazon, Audible, Itunes, or many other platforms.
I next sponsored guests who help me explain the healhcare mess and how it relates to the catastrophies happening in the rest of the world.
BUTCHERED BY “HEALTHCARE” will tell you how to survive healthcare, the largest and most corrupt industry in America. Robert Yoho, who is recently retired from a lifetime of medical practice, has written this award-winning book to help you see through the lies, handle hospitals, find trustworthy doctors, and master your drugs.
Learn how to avoid disgracefully ineffective and overused treatments such as:
✪ Angioplasty and coronary artery bypass surgery
✪ Low back and endoscopic knee surgeries
✪ Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
✪ Hysterectomies and Caesarean sections
Learn how toxic medications destroy health and how to quit them:
✪ 70 percent of us take prescription drugs, 20% of us more than five
✪ A 6th of us take psych drugs, causing brain damage and early death
✪ Cholesterol medicines are nearly worthless but are used by one in ten
✪ Opioids: millions take them and seventy thousand died in the US of overdoses in 2020
✪ Most cancer treatments are complete failures
✪ Generic medications are often weak or ineffective
Learn how big Pharma sells drugs by faking their studies. Understand the lies they stuff into websites and medical journals.
Learn why it all gets ignored (hint: Pharma has the largest criminal settlements in history).
Learn how to conquer healthcare costs.
Medical spending per person in the US is double that of other countries and it is the top reason for US personal bankruptcy. I will show you how to escape the over-billing and prosper anyway.
Money short-circuits everyone’s integrity. But if you read this book and learn the system, you can find first-rate healthcare at reasonable prices.
HORMONE SECRETS: How to use natural hormones to stay healthy, feel fantastic, and avoid overpriced, toxic drugs.
Are you all worn out and wonder if it’s your hormones? Do you have questions about menopause or testosterone replacement? Have you heard that hormones cause cancer and heart disease? Hormone Secrets will clear up the controversies for you.
Robert Yoho is an award-winning author who spent a career studying and prescribing hormones. He is retired, so he can tell you the truth. Hint: big Pharma and big money are involved, and you have been listening to many lies.
Are some hormones dangerous? YES, and this book explains which ones. You will go to your doctor armed with exactly what to ask for.
Is hormone replacement expensive? NO, not if you learn the secrets from Hormone Secrets.
THE PROMISE: Study this book and you will know more about hormones than 99 percent of doctors.
THE GUARANTEE: I will help you find a doctor who can help. Hormones are difficult for physicians to prescribe—they are pressured to use toxic, expensive patent drugs instead.

180. BITCOIN: CAUTIOUS OPTIMISM
This is a chapter from Cassandra’s Memo, latest download available free HERE. And HERE is more good news from Florida.
The Bitcoin advocates say it can defeat the central bankers. It is an electronic currency invented in 2008 that is currently classified as a commodity like gold. This means that capital gains tax is due when it is sold.
We know its structure is robust because it has been tested repeatedly by sophisticated hackers throughout its existence. If they were able to penetrate Bitcoin, their reward would be billions of dollars. Many serious people have worked a decade on Bitcoin’s structures including the “wallets,” the “mining,” and the exchanges.
The total number of Bitcoins has an absolute limit of 21 million, and about 19 million exist now. This is locked into the source code. Because the supply is limited, it cannot inflate. Bitcoin is outside of banks or other central control. It exists in thousands of computers worldwide—the most massive computer network ever built.
Game theory says people hold more secure currencies and spend less secure ones. This means that the good ones cannibalize the inflating ones. This has so far proven true for Bitcoin, and its usage and price have increased for over a decade. It is the best-growing asset class—ever—and has appreciated faster than any stock in history.
Hyperinflation destroys both the money and the economy. For example, the value of Venezuelan currency has wasted away. Shops there cannot get essentials and are left empty. The following chart shows what has happened to the dollar over the years as its value was purposely destroyed.
Gold has been used as money for millennia and is the oldest and best-recognized store of value. Bitcoin has many similar features and some that are superior. These include portability and near-instant transferability. These two assets and real estate are the most likely to hold value against inflation.
A simple technical analysis of scarcity called "stock to flow" is the ratio of the total stock of gold to the amount of new gold mined. Bitcoin is "mined" with computers just like gold is mined in the earth. This analysis can be done for either asset, and the result is nearly identical.
Bitcoin's price volatility is worrisome, but its trading volume is in the top five exchangeable currencies worldwide. It is used for settlements that are trillions of dollars each year, and this increases year over year. Worldwide Bitcoin transfers are about the same as the huge Fedwire system. Their website says:
[We are] the premier electronic funds-transfer service that banks, businesses and government agencies rely on for mission-critical, same-day transactions. Fedwire Funds Service participants benefit from the finality of payments credited to their Federal Reserve Bank master accounts.
Bitcoin has had no technical issues since 2013. Its development is slow, deliberate, and focused on security. Its secrecy is imperfect but being developed.
People in inflation-prone countries have trouble finding stores of value to save their money and investments. Many instantly understand Bitcoin’s promise, for they know that their currencies are like melting ice cubes. In notoriously corrupt Nigeria, for example, the central bank banned Bitcoin, but this is being ignored. They recently introduced a central bank digital currency, but it has yet to have much success against Bitcoin.
