TRANSCRIPT FROM VIDEO:

Lynette Zang (00:04):

Welcome to a very, very special edition of Coffee with Lynette, with my very dear friend Greg Mannarino, also known as the Robin Hood of Wall Street. He is a technician extraordinaire. I love this man. And the timing of you coming on today is so critical ’cause there’s so much that’s going on. So, Greg, thank you so much for being here today.

Gregory Mannarino (00:47):

Thanks for having me on. I appreciate you. It’s been too long.

Lynette Zang (00:50):

It has, it has been way, way, way too long. But I wanna kick it off and then we’ll just see where it goes. What do you think about the US recent downgrade of our debt?

Gregory Mannarino (01:02):

It’s not been, how about this? It’s not been downgraded enough. I mean, are you kidding me?

Gregory Mannarino (01:08):

This whole thing is fantasy land from, you know, every angle you wanna look at it. We all know that Everyone that follows our work knows that they’re laughing at it. And, and I think the beauty of it is everyone that follows our work, they saw this coming from a mile away. This whole freaking banking sector downgrade that we just got to <laugh> and we saw that coming. You know, you want to go and it’s just not gonna stop. But despite the propaganda, and, and I love that how, you know, people that follow our work, they are on the cutting edge because, you know, we make sure that we put out information that’s on the cutting edge. So it’s just so important. But yeah, I downgrade. Okay. Whatever. It’s, it’s, you know, this is just the beginning and it, it’s just, it’s kind of reminds me of the last meltdown here where they were keeping the bonds, rated AAA, even though they knew they were worthless. This same kind of thing. This, this is debt is, is going to get much, much worse here. The system demands it. AAA rating, AA+, whatever. It’s, it’s, it’s still ridiculous. <Laugh>.

Lynette Zang (02:04):

Well, it is. And you had everybody trotting out, you know, Jamie Diamond and, and Warren Buffet and, you know, oh, this doesn’t matter. The markets are going to determine it. But, you know.

Gregory Mannarino (02:18):

It’s funny is how they both responded, Jamie Dimon and Buffet the same way, kind of. Oh, it’s ridiculous. Well, buffet was like, you know, you just kind of ignore it. You see, I think the how, why Jamie Dimon came out, because he saw the writing on the wall. There’s no way that he didn’t know that his bank was going to be put on a negative watch by Moody’s along with a slew of other banks here. I mean, look, the,

Lynette Zang (02:43):

Exactly.

Gregory Mannarino (02:44):

Urge people to go back a year ago and look at the videos I was doing regarding the banking sector. I said, they’re in a lot of trouble for three reasons. No deposits, no loans and no deals. It was all being covered up. Then we had this regional bank issue, which they want us to believe is contained, that it is not right. And this is gonna bleed off and is now, as of today, into the larger institutions. And we’re gonna see a lot more of this moving forward. It’s, it’s astonishing to me how the mainstream can, you know, deflect from it. Don’t talk about it. You know, it’s again, it’s, it’s a mind control. It’s a psyop. Thank God there are shows like this that people can get the truth. Yeah. And I think that’s, that. Our audience does appreciate that. ’cause You know, you know, look, they’re gonna find any, any other reason to blame. And that’s what this all is a blame game. Why things are the way they are. Everything’s falling apart, <laugh> falling apart faster and it’s got nowhere to go, but a lot worse. And I think we’re all crystal clear on that. But again, <laugh>, you turn on the CNBC Fox Business Bloomberg, and they’re gonna tell you a totally different story because you see, they’re the authority freaks. You and me we’re just out here on YouTube. You know, they’re on the real big program over there programs, and they’re programming people’s brains. And it’s an unfortunate thing. It really is.

Lynette Zang (03:56):

Oh, it is. Well, what do you think about the soft land here? Maybe we won’t even have every session after all because we’ve been waiting for it for so long. What do you think about that conversation that they keep having? Which is ridiculous.

Gregory Mannarino (04:10):

Of course. That’s what, that’s what they gotta do. It’s, it’s all the same thing. It’s a deception. It’s a distraction. People are maxed out. What else did we find out just today? You know, not only are people burying themselves in debt more so than they ever have before, but now they’re actually having no choice but to cut back on spending. Which you know, look, the economy is, it’s dead. It’s been on life support for a very, very long time. Mm-Hmm. <affirmative> it’s being propped up on easy money. And people believe if they can keep the market propped up, it’s a, it, people believe that the economy is strong. And it’s, that’s a deceptive tactic that’s been going on since forever. It’s just easy money. Morgan Stanley yesterday said the stock market would be much lower if it were not for excessive in their words of government spending. I mean, look, all this stuff that we, we’ve been, we’ve been covering for so long, it’s, it’s all here. It’s in our face. And I think people really need to stop paying attention because it, you know, this is not gonna get better. I don’t know what people believe They’re hoping for some kind of saving grace. I’m sorry. It ain’t happening. Just prepare, have the high ground all the time. Be ready for what’s coming. Exactly. I think, I think they’re gonna throw another I mean, I know for a fact that they’re going to throw another crisis at us and another crisis followed by another crisis. ’cause That’s how we function right now on people to be ready for that. Be ready for anything. Because that’s how we function these days. It’s an unbelievable situation. But what can I tell you? I think you and I, you and I specifically have prepared our followers very well. I really think so.

Lynette Zang (05:40):

Thank you. I, I appreciate that compliment. We, you know, we all do our best out there. I mean, do you think that the inflation is under control? Do you think that it’s really going down? I mean.

Gregory Mannarino (05:53):

No, they’re gonna continue to inflate and inflate and inflate and then find other reasons to inflate even more. It can’t stop. It’s the nature of the freaking beast. And I, again, going back, I think our followers understand that we’re gonna see much more of this here. More reasons to pull cash into the now expanding wars, perpetual wars, other reasons. Yeah. To continue to borrow, borrow, borrow, borrow, and all this. That’s, you know, people, they look and say, okay, we’re sending X amount of billions over there and X amount of this is massively inflationary. And the fed keeping rates low. You know even though we’re getting these incremental raises to the federal funds rate, how do they manage to keep rates at a certain level? They gotta get into the market and make it happen. Then they’re not magical.

Lynette Zang (06:38):

Right. Exactly. All

Gregory Mannarino (06:38):

This entire process is inflationary. We know for a fact that global debt is going to balloon from here. What do we hear? Every developed nation, developed nation around the world. Oh, we’re gonna be spending more, spending more. There’s no spending cuts. They never, they can’t be. Right. You see, people don’t understand that the, I call it a direct, well, it’s a collusion between central banks and their so-called leaders, and I believe sincerely, that the world is run by central banks who controls the economy. It’s central banks who controls the markets. It’s central banks who controls the entire financial system, its central banks. So they run the show and they’re gonna make sure that they, that they continue to inflate. I tell people all the time, a central bank’s power resides in one thing and one thing only in that is their ability to inflate. This is why you’re going to see much more of this moving forward. So this whole farce of controlling inflation, and we’re gonna get it under control by raising the federal funds rate 25 basis points. What did we have? The Fed, followed by the ECB, followed by the Bank of England. All just coincidence. They all did these little incremental 25 basis point hikes here. And they’re gonna, they’re promising us that inflation’s gonna to get better. I don’t tell you the worst part of it. And I’m, you know, you know this already is, you’ve got food inflation outpacing everything. Oh my God. Yeah. You still got, you know, energy, energy costs. We haven’t seen anything yet. I’ve been telling people Lynette, and I would imagine you would agree, commodities, commodities, commodities is what people need to be. I’ve been using those three. You know, you watch the television commercials, the repeat things three times. There’s a reason for that. So I’ve been doing the same thing, telling, because I believe sincerely, this is where people need to be. As you know, I’m the, probably the mm-hmm. <Affirmative> one of the biggest gold and silver, especially silver advocates on the planet. I think it’s the most undervalued asset in the world. Absolutely. Looking at just the Dow Jones Industrial average gold ratio. That the gold silver ratio. ’cause People always ask me, well, hug, why do you come up with this, Greg, why do you believe that? Well just do your own homework here. It’s history dow gold ratio, gold silver ratio. And then you can see what I’m talking about. Because I believe, and, and I would love to hear your take on this. Let’s, let’s bounce off each other real quick. Yeah, absolutely. I believe that we are gonna see, and obviously this stock market is in la la and a place way beyond la la land right now. You know, PD ratios, fully guidance, it doesn’t matter anymore.

Lynette Zang (08:50):

Right. You know, it’s, nothing matters anymore.

Gregory Mannarino (08:52):

It’s a freak show. Mm-Hmm. <Affirmative>. So, and, and we don’t know. No one knows where the bottom is here. What we do know is that Dow 6,000 last meltdown is where the Fed started QE one. Correct. Okay. So understanding that, where’s the bottom? We don’t know where the bottom is, but what I do believe is we’re gonna get a one-to-one with gold dow. Oh yeah. Gold one-to-one, maybe. I mean, it depends how extreme it gets, but one-to-one is probably a, a best case scenario once the market comes down. So let’s say we get a Dow 6,000, we’re talking about 6,000 gold and then a 15, maybe even a 10 to one with regard to ratio to silver. Again, what I try to tell people is when, when markets crash or a particular let’s say asset class decides to, you know, bleed off, that cash doesn’t fly away to money heaven. It just moves. Right? Moves. It just moves through the markets. So we’re gonna see a movement of cash, I believe, into commodities on a, in, in a massive way when there’s, and why commodities? Because they’re real things and not like some, like digits on a screen. They’re real. So that’s why I, I think commodities for the long run are the place to be. And I’ve been, you know, trying to explain that to people as a, for a while now.

Lynette Zang (10:00):

Well, I, I agree with you a hundred percent. I would say though, you’ve gotta be holding onto those commodities. So in your physical possession, your gold and your silver, because it’s easy to manipulate the spot markets. And even if, and I I do also, I’m sorry, go ahead.

Gregory Mannarino (10:17):

It’s so sick how the system is set up. Oh, it is

Gregory Mannarino (10:20):

How the paper derivative market is dictating the hard asset price. I mean, that’s how they manipulate it as, you know, it’s so twisted. But again, you’re right. Hold it in your hand. That’s super important. I mean, you know, there, some people like to, I mean, a lot of things, and I like to be in things that’s, that are gonna pay me like dividend paying, exchange traded funds, whatever it might be to gain exposure to things as well. But absolutely. Holding it in your hand, number one, I, I’ll never back off of that. I’ve been telling people that for a thousand years I’ve been telling people to stay along this market too. And it’s gone crazy. I’ve been net long for a while now. But there’s gonna be a moment of reckoning. And, and you know, I don’t know if you’re even aware of this. I have a little, little thing called the MMRI Yes. Mannarino Market Risk indicator. It’s, it seems to be spot on. Every time we’ve crossed this two 50 threshold, as of late seems to be a line in the sand market goes crazy. Right now we’re just over 250. And then we’re watching, we watch some miracle happen. The 10 year yield starts to come down, relief from the market, stock stock start getting bid up again. It’s such a game. It’s a managed market. It’s, and it’s totally being run over by by the, in this case, the Federal Reserve.

Lynette Zang (11:29):

Well let, let’s go across the water a bit to the Bank of Japan, because they’ve really been showing central banks with their experiments on QE, QT you know, yield curve control, which they just, in my opinion, they had to expand that range because they were losing control. And that’s the last thing this is a Ponzi scheme, but mm-hmm. I mean, I personally think, so I want your feeling on this, that the Bank of Japan has been showing the rest of the global central banks how to do these experiments, but they’re failing. They haven’t been able to generate what they wanted since the early nineties. And they own most of the markets, whether it’s the stock market or the bond market, they’re buying into it. And yet, look at the purchasing power of the yen. It’s the lowest that it’s been in 50-60 years, but they’ve been in deflation since the nineties.

Gregory Mannarino (12:30):

This is the model. That’s what they’re doing here. And you’re right. This is what’s, what’s going on here. Other central banks can see are seeing what they’re getting away with here. But you know, this is all, it is all gonna change. We have right now, I think I looked it up 2 or three days ago, talked about it on my video blog, global debt to GDP has leveraged about 350% right now. It’s, I mean, not just zooming in and it’s crazy. Yeah. Just looking at one particular economy and that number is going to, it must grow from here. It, I mean, people don’t understand it. They, I don’t know. You know, I guess it’s the mainstream, you know, the propaganda, but that can only get worse. There’s no alternative. This is again, why you gotta look at holding physical assets here.

Gregory Mannarino (13:14):

Gold, silver commodity exposure here. Because again, risk on eventually is gonna turn to risk off in an extremely rapid way. Markets are supposed to run in cycles. I most people understand that. We don’t get that anymore. No. Mm-Hmm. We got this constant since the last meltdown. You know, artificially suppressing rates opens up a doorway for cash to make its way into equities, stocks, and you, it inflates a bubble. They’ve also been very successful in rein reinflating, a housing bubble like we’ve never seen. It’s a nightmare. And then we’re gonna have to deal with a lot of this whole thing is just starting, just, just flickering. There’s a spark right now with the banking sector. You know, it started a year ago. And well, not even a year ago, the regional bank issue, which is gonna off, let’s see where that goes. And then we have the whole commercial real estate exposure situation that we’re gonna have to deal with too. So, but, but all this to me looks like a consolidation of the system. But going back to what you were talking about, yes. This, this is gonna go on and on. It can’t stop. So forget about looking for a saving grace. You gotta look, look for alternatives here. And that is understanding that this whole thing is, in my opinion, is designed to fail. It’s going to imp implode absolutely. Dead market meltdown yields spiking in an uncontrolled fashion. That’s gonna put massive pressure on global equity markets. Cash is just going to move. It’s gonna move from bleeding outta the debt market, putting pressure on the stock market, bleed off there and just, I mean, we’re talking about a tsunami of cash that’s gonna make its way into commodities. And to a certain degree, I do believe in cryptos as well. So I’m just look for the most likely places where cash will move. I think it’s gonna go into other things too. It’s gonna go into artwork, maybe classic cars. It’s gonna, you know, you’re gonna see all kinds of prices of real things that you can hold in your hand. Inflate,

Lynette Zang (14:51):

Well, tangibles, because it’s gonna tangible, try and find a home where it can hold its purchasing power.

Gregory Mannarino (14:57):

Exactly. And that, that’s, I can’t imagine it unfolding another way. I really can’t. And I think about it constantly,

Lynette Zang (15:03):

<Laugh>. Yeah. Well, it’s kind of hard not to, except a lot of people out there, you know, it’s this normalcy bias. When they created this system to begin with, one of the things that they stated was that people marry the legal money of the state, and they cannot, but hope that it regained some of its purchasing power. Yeah.

Gregory Mannarino (15:25):

Good luck with that.

Lynette Zang (15:26):

Good luck, <laugh>.

Gregory Mannarino (15:30):

It’s not, you know, I mean, hope people can hope all they want to. I mean, like central banks have been killing deliberately, in my opinion, and I’ve been saying this for 10 years, you know, sucking the purchase power of their currency out, making it harder and harder for people to, to get by. But it’s all temporary. You know, this, why, why do they not include things like food inflation and energy in the calculation? Because it’s, it’s transitory, you know, like we were told in, you know, it’s not, but that’s the way it is. They try to, they try to make people, you know, people, most people other than those that follow our work, I have no idea what’s going on at all. Zero. They walk through time and space not understanding the damned thing. And you know, they feel like it’s above their pay grade or whatever. But it’s not true. You know, it’s not hard to understand this. And ’cause everything is mostly cause and effect. And we, if we understand the current situation and where we are now, and if people look at our older videos and say, Hey, you know what these people were talking about years ago, it’s in our face. You can pretty much guarantee that what we’re talking about is, is where it’s gonna go in the future. I mean, you know, you, there’s, there’s no doubt in my mind. Well,

Lynette Zang (16:27):

No. And it’s really, frankly, not rocket scientists. It’s simply a repetition of history. It’s not. Right. It’s exactly. And that’s one of the things that I love about you, is that you want people to do their own research. And so do I, you know, because I don’t think you should take anybody’s word for anything. Why would you take a central banker’s word? They’re human beings. And I don’t know how much living in the real world that they’ve actually done. But I, well, with, with,

Gregory Mannarino (16:58):

With central bankers being human beings I, I, I don’t, I think they lack a human quality. So I don’t even think, I tell people all the time, they’re not even freaking human. You know, like, people generally have a, they care, you know? Yeah. People are good at heart. Not these people, these organizations.

Lynette Zang (17:14):

No, they’re sociopaths.

Gregory Mannarino (17:15):

They’re essentially, yeah. Yeah. Essentially driven. They have one goal. And you know, what I try to explain to people, and I think you would agree on this, is we’re kinda living in a side effect of what central banks have planned decades ago. And they have more in store for us. This is on, on a, on a, on a predetermined pathway. And it’s a slow burn. Kind of like the boiling frog kind of syndrome. Here we are in the middle of, maybe it’s not even the middle, maybe even the early stages, I have no idea of, of this neo feudal system. Extreme haves. Extreme have-nots, unfortunately. And people getting crushed to death at a wipe out of the middle class, which I think both of us have spoken about for a long time. Yeah. And it’s in our face. It’s getting worse. People can’t make ends meet their struggling. Meanwhile, household debt, personal debt, consumer debt, credit card is ballooning and ballooning and ballooning. And talking about recession here, understanding that consumers pretty much maxed out here several months back. Very interesting phenomenon was occurring. There were credit card or credit card issuers were, were just increasing people’s credit lines just out of the blue. Mm-Hmm. <Affirmative>. And they knew that people were gonna act irresponsibly and they were gonna swipe and swipe and swipe. It was a setup. And that’s exactly what happened. They knew what happened. They’re creating slaves to the system, dependency on the current system. And this is, again, I tell people what do, what do we need? We need a revolution. We need a, we need people to revolt, but they won’t because there’s too many people dependent on the system, not the people that follow our work. I don’t believe we’re in a different kind of a mindset. But for, for the most part, people wanna be taken care of from cradle to grave. And they’re willing to sacrifice anything to be taken care of from cradle to grave. And they want, obviously, they want people ill mentally ill, physically ill spiritually ill, yeah. You name it. So they can again, be controlled. It’s crazy. But that’s really what I see moving forward. I would believe that you see the same things. Oh, we always do. You and me.

Lynette Zang (19:06):

<Laugh>. Yeah, we do. Yes, we do. And you know, the statement that you made about this has been coming for a really long time. These kinds of changes have to take a really long time so that people don’t notice it. The frog in the pot of water. And so we started on the, you know, credit for the masses in the twenties. That was at the beginning of this experiment. That’s right. That’s exactly. And then credit cards in the fifties. So a hundred percent we have move, been moving toward this and this next iteration, let’s talk about this next iteration of currency, because that’s what’s going to complete things if we allow it. I personally, you talk about revolution. I talk about revolution. ’cause I think that the Ray Dalio talks about it because I think that that’s actually what’s gonna happen. And I’m actually quite hopeful because where do you see them wanting to take us with the CBDCs?

Gregory Mannarino (20:03):

Well, of course, a cross border, cross country, directly transferrable kind of control mechanism. This absolutely. You know, this digital currency that, that central banks are gonna link together in some way. This is where we’re going. There’s no doubt about it. Hundred percent. And I think people like you and me and Gerald and stuff have talked about this for, for years. Mm-Hmm. <affirmative>. And there’s no doubt in my mind that that’s what they want. But it’s about control. Everything is about control. The whole freaking scam. Was about control. The whole thing, everything they’re doing to people is to see what they can get away with. How far, how hard people are gonna push back. Yes, there are certainly gonna be people who are gonna push back against this, but they’re gonna make it very, very difficult to try to sidestep this. I don’t personally think there’s a way out at this point, because they’ve covered every angle in this. They’ve, they’ve gone over this with regard to their own think tanks. Central banks have these think tanks. They, they planned this stuff out. They, they planned it already. They already have the, this whole new system’s probably already worked out. It’s just a matter of how they’re going to implement it. And I think they’re gonna go from crisis to crisis to crisis. We’re going to get a, I think honestly what they’re gonna do, in my opinion, is we’re gonna march into another locking up of the system. Another, and maybe we’re seeing this now with this whole banking issue, that that’s now coming to the downgrade of Moody’s by, I think it was just 10 banks with 11 more. It’s including some big ones on, on a negative watch. So look, what they’re gonna do is there’s gonna be another financial crisis loss of purchasing power, and then maybe not even an availability of people to acquire their own cash out of these institutions. You know, a credit freeze. Kind of a locking up situation where people don’t know. And I know you do, the big meltdown, 2008 was really not about the market. The stock market was cratering, but it was about the, the, the credit markets locking up. Exactly. Hence forth. Why They injected billions and billions of dollars into the system to try to lock free unlock unfreeze it, what’s the word? Unlock, unlock, unlock, unlock. It was locking up. So they had to do that to try to free up the system. And, and at this time it would take many multiples of cash again, on top of that. So I don’t think they can do it. Yeah. So I think an inevitable freezing up of the credit markets is going to occur. And that means, you know, debit cards don’t work. Credit cards don’t work, can’t go, can’t get your cash outta the institution. So another major crisis, but hold on everyone. We have a solution for you. This is what they’re going to do. Problem reaction solutions always the same. Always. This is their playbook. They will not deviate from it. So I’ve been telling people this, and you probably have too, for a long time, be ready for this kind of stuff because I do believe it’s coming. And again, they’re gonna need a massive outcry to, for people to accept this. And by and large, I think most people will, going back to why they’re creating dependency on the system, the current system must have more slaves to it. More people dependent on the government, which in my opinion is actually the central banks. Right. And then once they establish this more, as many people as they can get on board, then they can make the switch to the new system, which I think we’ve all seen coming. Probably everyone watching all work for X amount of time sees it coming as well. And then it’ll be easier for them to implement this. ’cause They’re more, they, they need, and they are creating extreme dependency on the current system. So when it fails again, oh, okay, don’t worry about it. We have this for you. That’s how they’re gonna do it. I can’t imagine another way. And then they’re gonna blame Russia, China, some other thing. What another plan. I don’t know what they’re gonna do, but they’re gonna point their fingers at that. ’cause It can’t be pointed anywhere. It’s got, they gotta deflect off of the central banks. Off of what? ’cause I mean, look, they’re running the entire show. It doesn’t. And, and, and, and they, they, they can’t be allowed to look bad. Hence fourth. Why? Yet again, you’ve got, you know, Fed chair Powell, it’s interesting to watch what happens during the, these so-called you know, every time every FOMC meeting, he comes out and he talks and he takes questions. How is it that nine out of those 10 questions that he’s asked, he looks down first, he’s gotta look down at the answer. He knows what the questions are. Not nine outta 10 of those questions are submitted in advance. Yeah. He can’t be made to look stupid <laugh>. And when he doesn’t know the answer, he gets flustered. You can see it, you can see, oh, that’s not in the script. That’s not what I’m, this whole thing is scripted. It’s crazy.

Lynette Zang (24:28):

<Laugh>. But, you know, I, I don’t know, maybe call me crazy. And Gerald pointed this out to me too, that it doesn’t take the majority to create a revolution and effect change. It’s true. That’s true. Just the vocal minority. He says 3%. 3%. I don’t know that we’re at 3%, but I’m hoping by the time this whole thing unfolds, and, you know, and here’s the other thing is we vote with our purses in our wallets, right? Yeah. So if you keep everything inside of the system, that’s your vote, right? Yeah. But if you pull it out and you have physical wealth in your possession, that’s your vote too. That’s my personal vote. And food, I mean, food becomes the biggest issue for people during this time. Hence the mantra. Food, Water, Energy, Security, Barterability, Wealth Preservation, Community, which is what we’re doing now and Shelter. That’s what you’ve gotta have to have a reasonable standard of living, or Yeah. To your point, directly controlled by the system and you lose all choice.

Gregory Mannarino (25:40):

Mm-Hmm. <affirmative>, it’s, it’s yeah, I don’t, yeah, I think we’re pretty much there. I would like to say we probably have 1% right now of the population who really understands what we’re talking about. <Laugh>. I think we gotta up that. And this is why

Lynette Zang (25:51):

We do. Yeah.

Gregory Mannarino (25:53):

This is why it’s so important for people who are hearing this, to let people hear this, share it, get it out there. Give it a thumbs up here. I, I tell people all the time, you know, you know how the algorithms work. They see your thumbs up, they see people like it, they show it mm-hmm. <Affirmative>. So please, people hearing this stuff, if this connects with you, get it out there, share the work, start talking about it. That’s the only way we can, we can get through this and maybe even win. It’s just a terrible, terrible thing to see unfold. I hate it. I hate seeing the suffering that people are going through. And it’s deliberate suffering.

Lynette Zang (26:22):

And it’s gonna get worse.

Gregory Mannarino (26:23):

It’s gonna get worse. And maybe people will wake up. Maybe they won’t. Maybe they’ll fall to that lower rung of society. I’ve been warning what what’s gonna happen is people, the middle class, the people are gonna fall to the lower rung. They try to claw themselves up. They’re gonna do this by borrowing and borrowing, and borrowing is right in our face. And they’re continuing to do that. So, unfortunately, these people are they’re becoming slaves to the current system. And un unfortunately, if they, they enslave themselves, they’re easier or they can be controlled.

Lynette Zang (26:51):

Oh, exactly. And I mean, that’s why going to, you know, I find it so interesting that a lot of talk is about the de-globalization. I mean, I think I read today that Mexico has surpassed China in the US as far as where we’re getting our parts and everything from. So onshoring, except that the financial system is still in a global globalized march and going toward a one world currency. Mm-Hmm. <Affirmative> from what I see, where you get to hold all your equity on your phone. And you made such a brilliant point, is if we do it to ourselves, then what do we do? We blame ourselves. We don’t really point the manipulation finger at the true masters, puppet masters that are out there.

Gregory Mannarino (27:43):

Well, I think some of the people that, most of the people who follow work know they know what’s going on. They, we we’re preaching to the choir for the most part. And these are the people. I say, please, you know, if, if this is getting through to you, don’t keep this stuff quiet. Share it. Get it out there. Start talking about it. And you know, you, most of the time you’re get a full on deaf ears. Believe me. Yeah. Even my own family people, they don’t, they don’t see it. It’s an, it’s an insane kind of a situation. But it, it is also the you know, they do it on par. People can’t cope. So what do they do? They shut themselves down. They don’t want to hear it. Then they get angry at you. How many people, how you had to lash out at you.

Lynette Zang (28:14):

Oh my God. Yes.

Gregory Mannarino (28:16):

And then you could probably get some of those same people that come back and say, you know what? I apologize. You were right. Now I see it. So that’s, I love that more than anything else. When I get someone that was, let’s say, anti Greg Mannarino, all of a sudden turn around and say, you know what, Greg, you were right. I see it happening now. And and I see more and more of this. I think and I hope we, we need to see, you. See, look, our channels, you and I, we’re okay. We’re, we’re, we’re pretty big, but we’re not even close. Oh, no. We, we would need to, you know, get through that. We need 10 times the people that we have to follow us. And this is where our followers come in to share this stuff. Get people to subscribe, get people to listen to what’s going on. I urge people to start their own channels. You know, I tell the people mm-hmm. <Affirmative>, you know, just do your own research. If you understand this, it’s like an epiphany. People get it. It’s like a bell goes off and all of a sudden they get it. Right. And so if you get out there, start talking about, it doesn’t have to be just, you know, you and I, it could be anybody else.

Lynette Zang (29:12):

Right. Exactly. And I know that this is a big problem for a lot of people. What you, you know what you said, that people that you know and care about whatever, think that you’re insane because you’re talking about this. And some will have that epiphany, some won’t. But

Gregory Mannarino (29:28):

Can’t, they’re blocked. They’re, they have that, you know, they’ve been controlled, they’ve been conditioned, whatever it might be. They’ve been programmed literally by the, I’m pointing out there ’cause there’s a big screen TV here. But that’s the box there that, you know, is flashing all these messages at people. Turn that stuff off. Because all you’re gonna get from that is lie and deception. And look here, don’t look over there. Right. that’s what it’s designed to do. All those people there, they’re reading a freaking script. And they’re, you know, like you and me we’re just talking, you know, these people there, they know what they, they, their teleprompter say this, they say the wrong thing. The little thing goes off in their ear. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Don’t do that. Oh, it’s crazy.

Lynette Zang (30:09):

It is. Do you have any advice for helping people? And I know this is the hardest question and people ask me this and I don’t have a good answer for it, but maybe you do, which is, you know, how do you talk to people to help sway them, to at least start to open their mind? Because then you have, I mean, we’re asking people to have a paradigm shift, and that means we’re asking people to realize that they have been sold lies their entire lives. So how do you just crack that door open just a teeny bit so that some light can come in? Do you have any advice or?

Gregory Mannarino (30:48):

You know, there, there, there, there are certain, there are some people, and I would like to think that you and I are these kinds of people and people that follow our work, that are, that are able to think a little more abstractly mm-hmm. Than most people. It’s the conditioning from childhood. Like you were going on told repeated lie after lie. You show people some truth. They get angry. But there are some people, some people that are understand, they’re receptive. They’re able to think outside the box. You get to talk to maybe, I don’t know, 10 people. If you’re lucky, maybe one, maybe one is going to be able to think outside the box and see what’s going on. People know something that’s, see, the thing is to me, and I talk to a lot of people, they, they know something’s wrong. They could feel it in their gut. They have this god-given gift, this intuition, whatever you wanna call it. They Yeah. They just know there’s a negative feeling. Yeah. Or a whatever it might be an intellect, whatever you wanna call it. And people, they get it. Some people just because of fear or because of just, they’re incapable of thinking outside the box. Not every, this, not everyone’s able to do it. Mm-Hmm. <Affirmative>, I mean, I think you know, it’s just the way it is. Unfortunately. But but I think that people realize that something is wrong if you talk, if you’re in a conversation with someone, I know you can’t start it off with, Hey, you know what, this is what’s going on. ’cause They might think you’re insane. But listen to the person you’re talking to. What’s coming out of their mouth? What’s their body languages? Then maybe you can find a way to get in here. Well, have you thought about this? And do you, what do you, what do you know about central banking? And, and, and see where they go. And if you see you have a person that, hey, you know, this person might be receptive to hearing some truth without getting angry and not turning it all off, then you can pursue. But some people are just gonna block it no matter what. Mm-Hmm. <Affirmative>, you can, you can tell people that water is wet. They won’t believe it. Some people, you can tell ’em that the sky is blue, they won’t believe it or whatever it might be. They have their, their their fixed mindset. They can’t change. And they won’t change. But some people, some people will.

Lynette Zang (32:44):

Yeah. Okay. So I gotta ask you, what keeps you up at night these days? What keeps biggest bugaboo? Yeah.

Gregory Mannarino (32:53):

I don’t know. Really, you know, I, I I try to maintain a positive mindset. I really, really do. I, I try not to <laugh>. What keeps me up at night lately is wondering how I’m gonna be what I’m gonna do with my race cars. Honestly, I don’t think trying, I try to disconnect myself from this. I used to.

Lynette Zang (33:08):

Oh, you have to sometimes able

Gregory Mannarino (33:09):

Sleep, grinding my teeth to death. You know, like the stress and and not being able to sleep. That, that, that was something that has plagued me for many, many years. But I think as I’m getting older and maybe mellowing out a little bit, maybe a lot of my followers would say, no, that’s not true. But try to, I, I don’t know. I try not to do that. Try. I try to disconnect myself from it. A little more so than I was in the past. ’cause I wouldn’t stop even at night’s very difficult where, you know mm-hmm. What keeps me up at night thinking where we’re going. And I hate thinking that people are hurting and people are suffering and they are. Exactly. I want people to, to be happy and, and not stress out. But it’s very difficult. I mean, I hear from, I was hearing from my sister this morning who’s just was diagnosed with cancer, by the way, terribly.

Lynette Zang (33:51):

So, sorry.

Gregory Mannarino (33:52):

She’s like, I can’t cope. I’m having so much stress and I don’t know what to do. You know, I’m like, just kind of relax, you know, just instead of stressing out about it, think about what you need to do to reach your goal. You know, we all have to have a goal to work towards. So try to maintain a positive attitude no matter what’s thrown at you. And figure if you’re in a bad spot, try to figure your way out of it. Say, okay, this is what I need to do without getting, without getting flustered. Right.

Lynette Zang (34:15):

You know, or stressed. ’cause Stress does, stress can do all sorts of really negative things to your body.

Gregory Mannarino (34:22):

I think that’s why my sister got ill is because of her stress level. ’cause She was under a lot of, she was having a lot of personal problems. And the, the stress of all that and is, is what disrupted her immune system from working properly. And then she’s got cancer. You know, it’s a, it’s a proven fact that stress can do anything. Stress can kill you.

Lynette Zang (34:39):

Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, I think that, you know, thank goodness I saw the writing on the wall, particularly in 2008 for me. That’s when I absolutely a hundred percent knew the system died and was just put on life support until they could get the next one in place. Mm-Hmm. <affirmative>. And, you know, I, I’m a very happy person and I’m not a particularly stressed

Gregory Mannarino (35:00):

Person. You’re always Exactly. That’s why I love talking to you. I love it.

Lynette Zang (35:02):

Exactly. <laugh>, thank you. But that’s because I’m prepared. Yeah. Right. I have all of those things of the mantra in place down here and up at the bug out. So I don’t have to be stressed because I put everything in place to make sure that I could take care of not just myself, but my family, meaning also my extended family, you know? And, and I think that that’s a, that’s a big part of the message because today we still have choices. We could still buy gold and silver physical and hold it outside of the system. You can still buy some stuff with cash. Right. And, and pull that out of the system. I have not, I I am not under the impression that they’ve yet put a chip, a new chip in that cash to regulate the interest rates on there. So that’s still cash in the wild preserves your principal, not your purchasing power, but at least your principal mm-hmm. <Affirmative>. So, you know, I think that leading, I like to, I I’m a doer, right. And I like to lead by example. That’s what you do too.

Gregory Mannarino (36:14):

Yeah. I tell you, I tell people, you know, we have to take action. You can’t sit here and do nothing. It’s nice to hear people talk about this kind of stuff. And it’s interesting to some people. But then you gotta sit back and say, okay, if you see what we see, what are you gonna do about it? Exactly. Are you gonna sit back and do nothing? I’ve been telling people since day one, thank you. That against the debt, become your own central bank. Look with, raise your awareness then to go further than that. Every Friday I leave people alone with love each other, care about each other. Be charitable. Embrace your neighbors and the people around your extended family. Like we were just talking about I always tell people my, my blog is in my thing. It’s our thing, you know? So but, but it’s so true. If we all lived like that, if we understood that we are not each other’s enemies, no matter how much they want us to hate this, these people ’cause of that and hate these people more ’cause of that, that is how, this is another control mechanism. Exactly. As you well know that they’ve used on us this time in Memorial, you know, it is how the few have controlled the many for forever. And it, if we don’t break outta that, we’re always gonna lose. We gotta get outta that mindset. And that’s part of winning as well. That’s part of taking action.

Lynette Zang (37:17):

My opinion. It’s, I no, you’re, you’re absolutely right because I mean, I’ve heard so many people, but you know, like they’re so concerned about buying gold. Well, booty Hootie, rooty manooty, I hold it. I own it. I feel so much better about this than I do about, you know, this garbage. ’cause That’s all that it is, is just garbage. But yeah, from your mouth, take action. It is not the time to procrastinate. It is not the time to sit back to see what’s going to happen. History tells us what’s gonna happen.

Gregory Mannarino (37:53):

Unfortunately most people aren’t gonna take any action until it’s too late. That’s what they always do. And they try to catch people off guard. I mean the people that do follow all work, they’re, they’re ready. I think they understand what’s going on. And it, once you get that understanding, they, they will take action. Most people, they just kept in this dumbed down indoctrinated state, and they don’t do anything until it’s too late. Everyone goes running for the door at the same time and it’s too late. You know, it’s, that’s even, that’s even the market too. I mean, that’s the one of the main reasons why I came up with my risk indicator. You know, looking at risk in the market, looking on what, what the dollar is doing on a real restraint basis and looking at a 10 year yield.

Gregory Mannarino (38:30):

But you know, you gotta be, you know, for a person like me is a little different, I think, than the average guy or girl. Oh, yes. But I think people, you know, don’t, you know, you gotta, you gotta lessen your exposure, I think, to things and maybe on one end, and then maybe increase it on the other side. Definitely. You can’t go wrong at all in my, it’s just my opinion. I go back, I want people to do the one research, physical assets, gold, silver, my favorite of all time. But I, but admittedly, I’m in a lot of things. I’m, I don’t have all my eggs in one basket. I’m kinda a really diversified kind of a person. And that helps me sleep at night too. But I can move assets around quickly. Much more so Right. Than I think the average person has the capability of doing it. So me understanding that I, for myself, that I’m able to do that. There’s, doesn’t it, you know, it’s part of being prepared. I, I’m able to, but most people can’t do that, so they have to take action way ahead of time. Start thinking about these

Lynette Zang (39:20):

That’s me, that’s me. <Laugh>

Gregory Mannarino (39:22):

Start pondering what’s going on, people that are listening to this, what’s the right choice for you? You know, take this information that you’re, you’re hearing from Lynette and I and ponder it and think about it and, and sleep on it. And then, and see where it goes. See what it leads you to do. Right. Whether, whatever it might be, whatever it might be.

Lynette Zang (39:42):

Is there, our time is running short now, so I wanna make sure that if there’s anything that’s on your mind that you want our viewers to be aware of?

Gregory Mannarino (39:51):

Number one. I mean, number one, watch this debt market. Okay? That’s the driver. It’s the debt market. Yes. It’s, is the driver of the entire situation there. Central banks are in here keeping rates artificially suppressed, trying to keep markets propped up as much as possible. This, this is going to cause debt to inflate much more, much more so than it is. But are we going to reach an implosion point? There is no doubt at all. We’re already seeing the effect of this as global inflation in an economy that is slowing down dramatically. Debts and deficits continue to balloon outta control and they’re going to continue to do so. But by watching the debt, the debt, what people don’t understand is the global debt market is what sets the price pretty much of everything here. The stock markets especially, and, and housing prices. And it all, you know, it creates massive bubbles to the upside with regard to those asset classes we just mentioned. And inverse bubbles. Inverse bubbles, I mean, way, way under price. Gold and silver based upon, again, Dow gold, gold, silver ratios. But commodities going forward is I think where people need to be. I think energy prices are gonna go a lot higher than they are now. I agree. Again, commodities. So this is all the stuff people need to understand. Follow more of this stuff. Don’t, you know, don’t let this be the last show that you listen to. If you’re brand new here, get out there and start paying attention to people. Pay attention to what’s going on. Raise your own awareness. Think about these things and, and that’s it. That’s really trust your gut. Watch the debt market.

Lynette Zang (41:11):

Yeah. I, I couldn’t agree with you more. I mean, that’s how money is created in the current system and it is imploding now. We are clearly at the end,

Gregory Mannarino (41:21):

And you can tell because of the effort that they’re doing to try to keep things the way they are, and it has to increase exponentially just to keep the current system functioning at its current level. This is not sustainable. It’s gonna implode, but it’s gonna get a lot worse before it does. That’s a fact.

Lynette Zang (41:37):

Yeah, I agree. This has been phenomenal. We can’t wait this long to get back together. There’s just way too many things happening and one of these days I might just show up where you are. ’cause I love it where you are.

Gregory Mannarino (41:52):

Yeah. Well, you, you’re more than welcome to, and I’m sure we’ll, we, we definitely shouldn’t wait too long. You know, maybe. We’ll, we’ll, we’ll talk soon.

Lynette Zang (41:59):

We’ll talk, we’ll talk

Gregory Mannarino (42:00):

Absolutely.

Lynette Zang (42:01):

Thank you so much for joining us, everyone. And I hope that you’ve gotten as much out of this as I have. And Greg is right. Do your research. Don’t take anybody’s word for it, but trust your gut too, because I know a lot of people are feeling really uncomfortable and they don’t quite put their finger on it. Just believe what you’re feeling and get yourself in a position that it doesn’t matter whether you’re right or whether you’re wrong. You’re in the best possible position to weather this storm. And until next we meet, please be safe out there.
