On Jan 5, 2016 I launched TTcoins, a website where I advocate for precious metals ownership, liberty, and anarcho-capitalism. www.TTcoins.com I use this platform to continuously upload educational and entertaining content on subjects which I am passionate about, namely Precious Metals and Preserving Freedom! I will be keeping a running update of content I produce in this thread, and encourage you to check out the site and tell me your thoughts! All comments, critiques, criticisms, rebuttals, and compliments are welcome and appreciated. Latest Articles: How to Buy Silver For Spot!

From the Peak Prosperity Podcast: Published on Sep 28, 2015 Recently, author and "de-growth activist" Charles Eisenstein stopped by the Martenson homestead while traveling on business. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chris sat him down to record an impromptu discussion on the nature of wealth. As should come as little surprise to Peak Prosperity readers, financial wealth ("money") is just one component -- and given society's current over-fixation with it, its pursuit oftentimes limits our ability to be truly wealthy.

Hello, I think I came up with a mathematical proof that everyone in an anarcho-cap. society will be rich. The question that popped into my mind afterwards was: if everyone's rich, do we even need money? (I doubt Bill Gates looks at price tags). I thought this bowling pin would be easy to strike down, but surprisingly it isn't. I looked up some Mises Institute videos about the existence of money, but they create a straw-man by saying that without money you need 'double coincidence' to occur however it's possible to have something akin to accounts receivable/payable. I favor money because I feel that it would be a logistical nightmare without it, but is there any other reasons why money is preferable to no money? (I'm currently fascinated by a moneyless society, although I'd probably choose to live in one with money)

Stefan! Please watch this video and respond to this argument. http://www.upworthy.com/when-they-say-cutting-taxes-on-the-rich-means-job-creation-theyre-lying-just-ask-this-rich-guy

http://utrend.tv/v/9-out-of-10-americans-are-completely-wrong-about-this-mind-blowing-fact/ I do have a problem with how the current system is (not) working. But I have a bigger problem with the way the narrator seems to imply that there's something the government should be doing, as if they didn't aid and abet the thieves and schemers at the top. I'm looking for thoughts on how best to voice my opinion, though. Thoughts?
