Why isn’t Hypothesis Number 1 or 2 a Massive Default followed by a Massive Bail-in? The government and the banks are broke with massive debt. If the “big event” happens if will arrive like a thief in the night and things will happen so quickly from that point it will make the events of 2008 look like they moved at glacial speed.

Americans don’t even know what a Bail-in is much less what the consequences of a national or even global Bail-in would look like and feel like. Everything is frozen - your bank and brokerage accounts, everything. From there it just gets worse. Talk to us about this scenario. I believe its’ likelihood is way north of 50% within the next 5 minutes to 3 years.
