A Weekend in Anarchy
by Steven Hilgart, Director of Conference Operations and Marketing I’m sure you’re aware by now, Bobby and I hosted our first ever Global Escape Hatch event this past week. If you didn’t show up, we playfully rubbed it in your face – and for good reason – it was one hell of a time! I’m […]
Worshipping at The Altar of Inflation
by Scott Causey, GWP Resource Correspondent I really believe it is incredibly important that people know nothing of history, just like the vast majority of “educated” people in America. I am referring to financial history in particular. You see, if those subjects and topics were actually taught in public schools and universities, the FDIC would have a […]
Spooks, Kooks, and a Boat Taxi Extortionist

I Have Seen the Promised Land…
by Steve Hilgart, Director of Conference Operations It seemed impossible. I couldn’t travel the world and experience all life has to offer… After all – I was working 16-18 hour days, 7 days a week. And it wasn’t the right time anyways – I had only met this nut case (Bobby Casey) a few years […]
Institutional Thinking and the Creature from Jekyll Island
by Scott Causey, GWP Resource Correspondent Today I’d like to take a break from my usual pound the table rants for precious metals. Buy the “rumor” and sell the “news”, in other words. Gold, silver, and platinum have all had monster moves in the last 30 days. I hope that everyone who has been […]

Global Monopoly: America vs. The World
by Bobby Casey, Managing Director The news stories from the past couple of days have been interesting to say the least. Just yesterday, the US Ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens, was murdered, and even possibly sodomized, by the very people he was there to serve. According to Hillary Clinton, “He risked his own life to […]
Food War III
by Scott Causey, GWP Resource Correspondent Who knew that the rap artist Nelly was actually a savvy investor? From the song “Grillz”: “Got 30 down at the bottom 30 mo’ at the top All invisible set in little ice cube blocks If I could call it a drink call it a smile on da rocks […]
The Minimalist Manifesto
by Bobby Casey, Managing Director In September of 1996, I started my first “real” business. I was 22 years old with no experience, no money (negative money actually), a beat-up 2wd Chevy work truck with no carpet and almost 200K miles, no knowledge, a new wife and a new baby. I was on top of […]
Are You Causing Your Own Self-Destruction?
by Steven Hilgart, Director of Conference Operations and Marketing Over the past week, we have received several responses from my article, Philosophy on Wealth. I went ahead and paraphrased some of the responses in easy-to-answer sentences and I’d like to take a minute today to respond to some of these thoughts. “Education isn’t enough, you need […]
