There’s a secret war going on for the future of money. The United States government―as it has for generations―is winning. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">And you can too.</span>
Since the creation of the Federal Reserve more than one hundred years ago, the American dollar has become the most successful product (of any kind) of all time and the language of commerce for the planet. From the Gold Reserve Act to Bretton Woods to the petrodollar and beyond, the U.S. has successfully ridden the waves of historical transformation to stay on top.
The next big change has become clear―digital currency. And the U.S. government’s plan to control the rise of Bitcoin as well as the currencies of the BRICS countries is already in motion. Over three decades―including the 2008 real estate collapse and the 2020 pandemic―investor John S. Pennington Jr. has studied how the Fed’s marketing formula promotes and protects its number one product by creating insatiable demand.
In this provocative book, Pennington explains how he incorporated these strategies by starting his career selling used blue jeans and ending up co-founding a $28 billion family of investment funds.
Dollars, Gold, and Bitcoin not only reveals the hidden agenda of the world’s most powerful bank. It will also change how you think, problem-solve, and incorporate critical thinking as it provides a handbook for making billion-dollar decisions that can take your life and business to the next level.
