How Money’s Transformation Reshaped the World
For centuries, money was backed by gold. That anchor held the financial system in check. But in 1968, everything changed. A quiet legislative shift severed money from gold—permanently. Most people have no idea how profound that moment was. But if you want to understand why the global economy looks the way it does today, you need to know what happened next.
The transformation of money after 1968 unleashed forces that reshaped economies, built empires, and shattered others. It set off an explosion of credit creation, making possible the greatest economic boom in history—while also laying the foundation for massive financial instability. The impact has been staggering. The world we live in today would not exist if money had remained backed by gold.
In my latest Macro Watch On Substack video, I reveal:
✅ Why 1968 was the turning point for the financial system
✅ How the removal of gold-backed money triggered an economic supercycle
✅ The hidden mechanism that allows endless money creation today
✅ What this means for your wealth, investments, and the future of the economy
If you don’t understand how this transformation unfolded, you cannot fully grasp the forces driving the economy today—or the dangers ahead. This video connects the dots, showing why the world’s financial system operates the way it does and what that means for your financial future.
Most people remain completely unaware of these tectonic shifts. Don’t be one of them.
