<p>What if ending the Federal Reserve created worse problems than the ones we're trying to solve?</p><p>In this solo presentation, Hans explores the complex world of central banking, focusing on the Federal Reserve's role in the global economy. He examines monetary policy from their perspective to help listeners understand the actual mechanisms at work beyond the typical criticisms.</p><p>The presentation takes a deep dive into the US dollar's status as the world's reserve currency, exploring both the benefits and costs of this position that few Americans fully understand. Through an examination of the "Triffin Dilemma," Hans explains the historical tensions between maintaining a gold standard and providing sufficient global liquidity.</p><p>With careful analysis backed by economic texts, he offers a warning about alternatives to the current system, suggesting that globalist central banking plans might be far more concerning than our existing monetary framework.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Central Banking from the Insider Perspective:</strong> An approach to monetary policy from the perspective of those who implement it, explaining how the Treasury, Federal Reserve, and Congress all play interconnected roles in the expansion of the money supply. Clarification that while the Fed does expand the money supply, the initial demand for money starts with Congressional spending.</p><p><strong>The US Dollar as World Reserve Currency:</strong> A deep dive into what it means for the US to have the world's reserve currency, exploring both the benefits (seigniorage, lower borrowing costs, international prestige) and the costs (vulnerability to global financial shocks, trade imbalances, currency appreciation affecting exports).</p><p><strong>The Triffin Dilemma Explained:</strong> An exploration of economist Robert Triffin's identified conflict: global trade needs an elastic supply of dollar liquidity, but the US gold holdings (under the former gold standard) were essentially fixed. This tension ultimately led to abandoning the gold standard in 1971 and has significant implications for today's monetary system.</p><p><strong>Be Careful What You Wish For:</strong> A warning about the alternatives to the Federal Reserve, suggesting that what globalist central bankers have been trying to implement for decades—a global currency outside national control—would be worse for Americans than the current system.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>▶️ Chapters:</strong></p><p>00:00 - Introduction and Background on Central Banking</p><p>03:00 - Why Few People Understand the Fed's Real Mechanisms</p><p>06:00 - How Money Creation Works: Congress to Treasury to Fed</p><p>11:00 - Central Banking Alternatives and Their Risks</p><p>15:00 - Reserve Currency Status: Definition and History</p><p>22:00 - Benefits of Being the World's Reserve Currency</p><p>28:00 - The Costs of Reserve Currency Status</p><p>32:00 - The Triffin Dilemma: Gold Standard vs. Elastic Currency</p><p>41:00 - How Central Bankers View Gold as a "Brake on Growth"</p><p>47:00 - Ending Gold Convertibility in 1971 and Its Effects</p><p>51:00 - Warning About Globalist Central Banking Alternatives</p><p>54:00 - Conclusion and Call for Feedback</p><p><br></p><p>Got Questions?

<p>If you don't hear it from us, you're not going to just stumble across it - but what exactly is "it" when it comes to the truth about our financial system?</p><p>In this episode of Remnant Finance, Hans dives into the mechanics of central banking, monetary systems, and the financial "rules of the game" that affect us all daily—yet remain largely hidden from view.</p><p>This episode offers a thoughtful examination of how our financial system actually works and why understanding it matters for those implementing IBC (Infinite Banking Concept). Rather than simply demonizing central banking and fiat currency, Hans argues for a more nuanced approach: truly understanding the system we're forced to operate within.</p><p>Exploring everything from the true origins of money to the relationship between Congress, the Federal Reserve, and the Treasury, this episode challenges many common assumptions while providing practical insights for navigating our current financial reality. It's a masterclass in "knowing your enemy" for anyone looking to protect their financial future through IBC principles.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>The Origin and Nature of Money:</strong> An exploration of competing theories about where money comes from - the mettallist "barter origin story" versus the chartalist view that money is a creation of the state.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Fiat Money Realities:</strong> Why fiat currency isn't inherently evil, but rather a medium defined by government decree - one we're forced to interact with whether we like it or not.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>State Money vs. Bank Money:</strong> Understanding the difference between state-created monetary base (legal tender) and the expanded bank money created through fractional reserve banking.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>The True Role of the Federal Reserve:</strong> Challenging common misconceptions about who's really responsible for inflation - is it really Jerome Powell and the Fed, or is Congress the true culprit?</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Fractional Reserve Banking Explained:</strong> A clear breakdown of how banks can turn $100 of deposits into $1000 through the money multiplier effect, and the implications this has for our economy.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Practical IBC Application:</strong> Why using IBC is about optimizing within a fiat system we can't escape, rather than pretending we can avoid it entirely.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>▶️ Chapters:</strong></p><p><br></p><p>00:00 - Introduction and Reality Check</p><p>05:00 - The Encyclopedia of Central Banking</p><p>07:00 - Questioning Our Financial System</p><p>13:00 - Learning From Central Bankers</p><p>18:00 - Understanding the Rules of the Game</p><p>25:00 - What Is Money?
