The US Dollar Is CRASHING — (+ How To Build a 5-Year Survival Plan)

The US Dollar Is CRASHING — (+ How To Build a 5-Year Survival Plan) 

If you’ve been keeping an eye on the news lately, you’ve probably heard about the US dollar crisis. The headlines scream doom and gloom: The dollar is crashing today, the coming collapse of the dollar is right around the corner, and everyone’s scrambling to figure out what’s going on and, more importantly, what they should do about it.

But while others are panicking, you can prepare yourself and position your assets in a way that not only protects your wealth but could actually help you thrive when the dollar finally collapses.

I’m going to give you a simple, no-nonsense guide on what to do if the dollar collapses, what kinds of investments could be valuable in such a scenario, and how you can protect your financial future.

Why Is the Dollar Crashing?

So, why is the dollar crashing? Well, it's like watching a slow-motion train wreck. The US dollar, once the rock star of global currencies, is losing its mojo. Interest rates are being cut, and the Fed just told us they'll keep cutting them through 2025 and into 2026.

 It's like they're throwing a "free money" party, but we're all going to wake up with one heck of a financial hangover.

The US government has been printing money like it's going out of style. In fact, in recent years, they’ve added trillions of dollars to the money supply. When more money is pumped into the economy without corresponding growth in production, it causes inflation. And what happens when there’s more money and fewer goods? You guessed it—the value of that money goes down.

Let's talk numbers for a sec. The US dollar index has dropped by 5% from its June 2024 high. That might not sound like much, but in the currency world, it's like your favorite football team losing a 5-game winning streak. 

And get this - in the last four years, the median home price has skyrocketed by 50%. That means your dollar now buys half of what it used to in real estate.  The S&P 500 is up 146%, and Bitcoin? A mind-blowing 1,000%.

On top of that, the national debt is through the roof. As of the last count, the US debt stood at more than $35 trillion! Investors, both foreign and domestic, are starting to worry about the long-term viability of the dollar as a safe investment. All of these factors combined are why you’re hearing more and more about the coming collapse of the dollar.

What to Do If the Dollar Collapses: 10 Assets to Consider

So, what should you do to prepare for the collapse of the dollar? First off, don’t panic. Yes, things might get rough for a while, but that doesn’t mean you can’t protect yourself and even come out ahead. Here are my top 10 best investment picks if the dollar collapses:

  1. Gold, silver, and other precious metals: These shiny beauties have been a store of value for centuries.

  2. Foreign currencies: Think Euro, Japanese Yen, or even the Chinese Renminbi.

  3. Foreign stocks: If the dollar drops, foreign stocks priced in stronger currencies could rise.

  4. Foreign bonds: They provide stability and diversification.

  5. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies: Digital currencies are becoming more mainstream.

  6. Collectibles: Gold and silver coins, jewelry, artwork, classic cars, and even firearms.

  7. Land and agricultural commodities: People will always need food, right?

  8. Off-the-grid living solutions: Think solar-powered tools and alternative energy sources.

  9. Income-producing real estate: This is my personal favorite. Even if the dollar collapses, people will still need a place to live.

  10. Bartering items: Bourbon, bullets, matches, fishing gear, first aid supplies, and MREs (meals ready to eat).

We've got about 5 years to get our financial acts together before things get really messy. It's like we're sitting on a giant money volcano that's about to blow.

Every 5 to 7 years, the economy goes through these mood swings, and every decade or so, boom! We get a financial meltdown that makes everyone's hair stand on end.

But for some it actually fun tines, because during they get super rich while others... not so much.

The 5-Step Strategy to Thrive During the Dollar Collapse

So, what will be valuable if the economy collapses? Let's talk strategy. I've got a 5-step plan to help you not just survive, but thrive in this dollar collapse scenario:

  1. Bet on yourself: Before investing in any asset, invest in your own knowledge and skills. Understand the quantum wave thesis - it's a predictable technology cycle happening every 50 years or so. We're currently in the second phase where the biggest growth and wealth opportunities exist.

  2. Align investments with purpose: Invest in industries and technologies that align with your values. Think cryptocurrencies, decentralized technologies, AI-powered industries, and income-producing real estate in growth markets.

  3. Leverage volatility to your advantage: Embrace market volatility as a tool rather than a risk. Bitcoin's price swings, for example, present opportunities to buy during dips.

  4. Focus on high-conviction investments: Don't over-diversify. Instead, invest in a few high-conviction assets where you have deep knowledge and confidence.

  5. Invest in continuous learning: Allocate at least 10% of your investment into self-education. Join mastermind groups, consume research, stay informed about new technologies like AI and blockchain.

Speaking of continuous learning, you should consider golfing with me. It's a chance for us to chat one-on-one, hit the driving range, and play 18 holes at one of the city's finest courses. We can dive deep into real estate, investing, marketing, and systems - or heck, we can talk about YouTube or podcasting if that's more your thing.

Your 5-Year Plan to Financial Freedom 

If you take nothing else from this article, remember this: when the dollar collapses, you want to own tangible, valuable assets. Real estate, precious metals, and essential commodities are all good bets. And don’t forget about the power of diversification. Having a mix of investments will help protect you from whatever the future holds.

The collapse of the dollar is already happening, and the world is adjusting. Are you? Protecting your wealth means staying informed and taking action now. You've only got 5 years to 5x your wealth and I can help you achieve your real estate investing goals- even with no capital.
