Eric wrote this article while sitting at his desk in 1997, staring out the window gazing upon the San Jacinto Mountains in Indian Wells Ca. God gave Eric a vision for what was to come in the future of our country. Read with amazement the accuracy of the vision and get ahead of the curve as we are only half way through the events to come. Eric had his entire client base load up on gold at under $300 an ounce (to be stored in their homes in a safe), he steered them into commodities, had them pay off their mortgages and eliminated all credit card debt as a result of this vision. He also saw that the only way to stop this coming economic catharsis was for Americans to save more. He launched www.savedaily.com and www.save252.com in 1999 and 2005 respectively in pursuit of creating solutions to this coming disaster. fall-of-capitalism-092319971

“For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit of things of the Spirit.” Romans 8:5
There was a time when the things of God were important to America and its people. The American Dream was not synonymous with consumerism and having more stuff. The balance of life style and concern for our fellow man was imbedded in our culture. But today, even (or especially) our churches are filled with people that are distracted with the things of this world and immediate self gratification and not the will or work of God.
Most people do not connect their finances to the existence of God, even though our currency reminds us that “In God We Trust”. Especially in the media, few are courageous enough to connect the word of God to the world of good, by speaking out with regard to how these realities co-exist. But unless we as a people (not the government) begin to acknowledge this connection and thus leave enough resources to care for our pressing social needs, then our personal and national finances will continue to suffer and our liberty will continue to erode from the inside out.
The American Dream is part and parcel to being a self governing people under God, with liberty and justice for all. This means that we must give of ourselves by way of time and resources to His will and be willing to sacrifice along these lines.
Starting with our families and churches, extending to our communities, expanding to our nation and reaching across the globe with the love of God is the cure for the consumer driven malady gripping the finances of our world today.
As we eliminate the distractions of life, driven by our own passions and desires, we will become able to look outside of ourselves to see the lost and hurting people all around us and become willing to help. And as we shift towards seeing people as the purpose rather than the problem, we will see the glorious fruit of our Nation blessed once again by God.
”For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die. But if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.” Romans 8:13
