Show Notes

"The recurring cycle of economic booms followed by inevitable busts has remained a puzzle for generations of observers. While mainstream Keynesian and monetarist theories propose monetary interventions to smooth these fluctuations, the Austrian School offers a compelling and alternative perspective"

~ Michael Matulef


The bust will not be escaped. We cannot print our way out of it, we cannot cover it up with more artificial interest rate controls. We have drunken ourselves into an economic and financial stuper for far too long, we have avoided the hangover with another massive bender decade after decade - so long that we've lost sight entirely of the purpose of investment, the culture of sustainable capital, and the very reason for frugality and sustainable savings. The crash will hurt, but its the *solution*, not the problem.

Find out why in today's excellent article by first time author on Bitcoin Audible, Michael Matulef: The Inevitable Bust: Why Economic Booms Contain the Seeds of Their Own Destruction | Mises Wire. (Link: https://tinyurl.com/3zsw982z)
