[WORDPRESS HASHCASH] The poster sent us ’0 which is not a hashcash value.

I wish Glenn Beck was on at an hour that was more available for me.

Great comments Steve. Keep up the good work.

These are great steps to take: get a good supply of food storage, pay off debt and start saving money. But I’d like to be more specific; start saving REAL money. I predict that inflation will hit 10% in the next three years. If you use the original calculation method used back in the days of Jimmy Carter, it already is at 10%. So if you put money in a CD making 5%, you are going backwards by 5% a year. REAL money is something (anything) that will hold its value over a long period of time and can be easily traded. Gold and silver coins quickly come to mind, but so does long term storage food items.

There is one thing that I’d like to emphasize. A couple of months ago I was talking to my father about the state of the economy and was getting pretty worked up. He said something that calmed me down and put things into perspective. He reminded me that the Lord warned us that terrible times would come; as a sign of his coming. But the Savior also gave some encouragement by reminding the saints that he will watch over them and protect them from the worst of it. Not that the saints won’t suffer, but that their burdens will be lighter, if they follow the council of the prophets. So in addition to being physically prepared, let us also be spiritually prepared.
