In the first half, author and currency specialist Kristen Ragusin discussed the current economic climate, what we can expect this year, and the evolving impact of Bitcoin. While inflation and economic challenges persist, she believes there is significant upside potential with the new Trump administration. "He's got a good plan, and they've got a lot of tools in the toolbox to turn this thing around," she remarked, citing revamped energy policies and tax reforms, including not taxing Social Security benefits. Ragusin was not concerned about proposed tariffs causing inflation, suggesting that they were going to be used as more of a bargaining chip.She noted that Bitcoin, often viewed with skepticism, has a robust infrastructure that makes it "safer than our regular financial structure." Despite its volatility, she thinks Bitcoin is "here to stay," likening it to "digital gold" that could help restructure US debt. However, comparing the current cryptocurrency landscape to the dot-com bubble, she predicted that only a few blockchain coins would prevail. And while she has concluded that we're headed to a form of digital currency, she cautioned that cash should not be abandoned.Ragusin also touched on her views about creating abundance for all, instead of the illusory "scarcity" economy. "When money was made scarce… scarcity of all kinds ensued," she explained, adding that America's founding fathers understood this and sought financial freedom from feudalism and oligarchs by issuing money backed by resources. Ragusin argues that we could do this with community resources such as farming.------------In the latter half, Sasquatch communicator Brian Bland shared his profound experiences with the enigmatic creatures, emphasizing a deep, telepathic connection he believes many can tap into. This connection was ignited during a walk in 2012 when he received a clear telepathic message to "go to the mountains," which he believes was from Sasquatch. He recounted a pivotal moment when he encountered "glyphs" (view related images), characterized as distinct, non-random shapes formed with wood and sticks that he views as forms of communication from Sasquatch. He thinks these beings possess advanced abilities, and that many are more evolved than humans. Bland described viewing "Arrrie," a Sasquatch clan-leader, as about 12 and a half feet tall, "broad as a Volkswagen bus," and weighing in excess of 1000 pounds. Detailing some of his extraordinary experiences with Sasquatch, Bland emphasized their ability to manipulate perception and reality. He recalled a moment when he witnessed a Sasquatch materialize right before him, while his friend perceived it as a small dog, illustrating how "they can give you any sensory, audible or visual experience that they want to create." He also discussed the meaningful lessons he's learned from these encounters, particularly about unity and connection. In one instance, after sensing that Arrrie's daughter was nearby, he experienced a "love zap," a powerful energy that left him feeling deeply connected to a universal God source, devoid of ego and judgment.

This week on the podcast, I'm sharing my conversation with Kristen Ragusin, author of the book 'The End of Scarcity – The Dawn of the New Abundant World'. Kristen's book teaches us about the flaws in our current belief system around money, and how we can change our beliefs to unlock the abundance that is already all around us. As a society we've been conditioned to have beliefs about money that are meant to control us and keep us feeling a sense of scarcity. And we often just accept it as fact without even questioning it. Kristen encourages us all to know that we are all already born with wealth in the form of creativity, passion, and joy.

— “I looked up at the tree rich with its canopy of fire crimson leaves, and I could see that nature simply couldn't help but give of herself. All she created, she created from the endless joy and out of the sheer love of what she was. She could not help but give, never with a thought of how much or to whom. She was the very being of abundance itself. All she gave she gave out of sheer ecstasy of the divine presence coursing through her veins. And, this was why she sang. The time had come for us to join her. No longer would we tell our sad stories bemoaning our sagas of woe. The time had come for us to drop the discord in our hearts with all its bitter tones of clashing cacophony. We were ready. Ready to join in the harmony, the harmony enveloping the rest of the Earth. The time had come for humanity to join Creation singing its song. We now would sing too, a song so sweet, so beautiful, coming from the pure joy of being alive. Expressing and giving of ourselves in gratitude for life flowing through us, as our hearts pounded full and deep in the wonderment of a world filled with plenty.” Valeria interviews Kristen Ragusin — She is the author of “The End of Scarcity: The Dawn of the New Abundant World.” Kristen Ragusin is the best selling author of The End of Scarcity, professional wealth management advisor with over thirty years of experience.

In this episode of Beyond Bitcoin, we're joined by Kristen Ragusin, SVP of Wealth Management at Raymond James and author of "The End of Scarcity: The Dawn of the New Abundant World." Kristen discusses the flaws in the current fiat-based financial system, which creates dependence on borrowers and results in asset bubbles and rising debt. She differentiates between wealth and money, noting that money should equal people's productive value. Kristen highlights the historical evolution of money, with asset-backed and producer-backed systems offering stability but being prone to inflation and control. The debate between Central Bank Digital Currencies and cryptocurrencies leaves the future of money uncertain. The ideal form of money should maintain stable value, represent some value, and be flexible. Blockchain technology may offer solutions for a more balanced monetary system, but the way forward is unclear.

Alex and Shimon discuss the latest in the markets and the upcoming Bitcoin halving. Will the previous pattern of sideways action and then an upward break repeat itself? They also discuss the latest unemployment and CPI prints and how the current methodology of calculating these metrics that the federal reserve relies on for determining the monetary policy, may no longer be accurate for the post-covid world. We discuss a thesis where the actual CPI is lower, and actual unemployment is higher, which means that the federal reserve can start reversing course sooner rather than later.We then welcome back Kristen Ragusin to the show for Part 2 of our discussion around money and scarcity.

The book is out now and you can find it anywhere you purchase books.Long form:Kristen's interest in money began as a child as she studied the stock and bond markets with her father to earn her allowance. She grew up seeing the markets as a tool of empowerment but all that changed when she saw the coming financial crisis of 2008.

Quincy Krosby, chief global strategist at LPL Financial, says that the stock market has been signalling a coming recession -- albeit not likely to be "a deep scary one" -- but the key will be the speed of recovery, and that may hinge on how and when the Federal Reserve eases up on or reverses interest-rate hikes. Crosby notes that one thing that will help the recovery is that the dollar should weaken once the Fed makes it clear that the cycle of rate hikes is ending; she pointed to multi-national companies like Apple and Microsoft as examples of firms who saw global revenue growth hindered by the strength of the dollar. Also on the show: Kyle Guske of New Constructs puts a four-star mutual fund into "The Danger Zone," noting that it's filled with dangerous stocks and that past performance isn't likely to dictate future success; Greg Jenkins, head of institutional defined contribution for Invesco, examines the firm's recent survey showing that employees feel alone -- and unsupported by their employers -- in trying to determine the best investment strategy for retirement, and author and investment adviser Kristen Ragusin discusses her new book, "The End of Scarcity: The Dawn of the New Abundant World.”
The End of Scarcity: The Dawn of the New Abundant World by: Kristen Ragusin Can you imagine that All is Calm in our world? —that Something Wonderful Is happening—even as our world seems full of confusion and chaos? We are uneasy as we see trouble on the horizon. Not enough money, debt piling up—we look to survive, let alone thrive...Discontent fractures our society, and division is all around us, even in our families and in ourselves—No matter where we are in the spectrum of have and have-nots. Fear is in our hearts and lingers in our minds. And yet....Something Wonderful is happening Something Magical and Beautiful, Indeed. We are witnessing our old ways and systems disintegrating as most of us are confused—thinking the end to scarcity lies in competing political, economic, and social policies. But no political, economic, or social change will ever resolve the problem of ‘not enoughness.' Without knowing this we chase our tails arguing with one another. Polarized by issues, we are lost and drained while the Answer we search for quietly waits for us to be discovered. The real problem is the money we use—it creates scarcity, struggling and suffering that it is meant to solve. Something greater is readying to take its place. Though we may be unnerved by the rumbling—A new way to do money is being born. A beautiful way, beyond anything we imagine—the right way to do money is dawning on the horizon. We are the caterpillar in the midst of becoming the butterfly. In truth, we are wired for unconditional love and appreciation in our interdependence, not fear and greed, as we are misled by our separateness. We are on the precipice of change; a beautiful and grand change. The new paradigm is beginning to unfurl from its chrysalis where our hearts pound in a world of Plenty. Come Discover what waits for you... Look no further if you're seeking a book that will change the way you perceive money, markets, and economics!
