Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Why the U.S. Can’t Repay Its Debt, What Comes Next, and How to Prepare | Ray Dalio - PT 1 (Fan Fave)

Let's call it one-tenth.

It's actually less than one-tenth is your money.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

But let's call it one-tenth.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

You have a certain amount of money up.

They give you the deposits.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

You invest the money within these general guidelines.

So, for example, government bonds are safe from default.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

So you buy the government bonds.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

You think you're making a spread.

And then what happens is the government bonds go down in value at the same time as the people say, hey, I want to go take my money and put it someplace else.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

So you don't have enough money.

And central banking works like that, except the government can print the money.

So the risk when it's a government is not that you won't get the money back unless, like in this particular case, for a bank.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

It goes down in value, so you ain't going to get that back.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

You're going to sell it.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

But anyway, you described it very well.

What happens for the economy as a whole is then they print the money because they don't want defaults.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Why the U.S. Can’t Repay Its Debt, What Comes Next, and How to Prepare | Ray Dalio - PT 1 (Fan Fave)

There's a tolerable amount of defaults, and then you get past a tolerable amount of defaults, and it just crushes everything.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

And so this thing with the bank is not a Silicon Valley bank
