Robo-Advisors: When You Have a Lot More to Lose than Money

May 2, 2022 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Update 5.2.22: Just when you thought robo-advisers couldn't get worse, they're marrying up with ESG investing, which you know from here, here, and here that you should avoid. The target of these two investing fads? Young people, of course. The Wall Street Journal reports: More young adults are looking to invest in ESG, but many don’t know where to start and can’t meet the investment minimum to work with a full-service financial adviser. Money-management firms are adding options to attract these customers, for whom investing even small amounts with an environmental, social or governance … [Read more...]

The End of COVID-19 is Here: Good Riddance

February 10, 2022 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Good riddance, the end of Covid-19 is here. Don't confuse the end of COVID with the end of medical tyranny, government lockdowns, and other infringements on your freedom—they're here to stay. That is, if we allow them to rule with the constantly politicized "science." It's probably no shock to you, Your Survival Guy reader, that they did this with such ease—a mass inoculation on a scale never before seen in history. You were on the pulse from the very beginning with my COVID series: Stock Market Rocked by Coronavirus Coronavirus Infects Stock Market: Part II Coronavirus Infects … [Read more...]

HUGE IMPLICATIONS: Market Sell OFF Sends a Message

January 6, 2022 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

The implications are HUGE from yesterday’s stock market sell-off. If you live in or around Boston or Newport, RI, this is ground zero right now for Covid-19, thanks to everyone seeming to have the Omicron sniffles. This is the last gasp for power. You can feel the surge to lock things down, BIG TIME. Pay attention to what I’m telling you. Because if you want to dine at the premier dining establishments, you better have your Vax card because they no longer accept just American Express. It’s “show me your papers” or “no soup for you.” And if you don’t like it. Too bad. No problem. They’ll … [Read more...]

Your Poor Man’s Coronavirus Defense

January 28, 2021 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Coronavirus Infects Stock Market: Part XXXII UPDATE January 29, 2021: It’s freezing up here in the northeast. The real feel in NH is -19 today and going lower tonight. You gotta keep your immune system strong. I load up on liposomal Vitamin C, especially when it feels like I’m living on the dark side of the moon. Do you have a vitamin routine? There’s a bottle of Dr. Joseph Mercola’s liposomal C sitting on my desk. A doctor client of mine swears by his C, not quite Linus Pauling levels, but a significant dosage nonetheless. Dr. Mercola writes about zinc as a “Poor Man’s Coronavirus … [Read more...]

“They Stick a Q-Tip So Far Up Your Nose, You Can See it Through Your Eye”

October 1, 2020 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

“They stick a Q-tip up your nose so far, you can see it through your eye,” I thought, as a friend described what it was like to watch his daughter squirm in pain and holding her in place as the doctor performed a COVID-19 test. No thanks. But Rhode Island requires school children showing two signs of COVID-19, which we all have when we get a cold, must be sent home. They can return with either a doctor’s note saying in writing he doesn’t believe a test for COVID-19 is necessary, or take the traumatizing test and wait at home for the results. Both options stink, and are disruptive to say the … [Read more...]

CEO Warning: Alternative to Mandatory Vaccines?

September 28, 2020 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Two experts I rely upon for the truth are Dr. Joseph Mercola and health guru, “The People’s Chemist,” Shane Ellison, M.S., author of Over the Counter Natural Cures. You’re familiar with both from here, here, here, and here. Now they may not agree on vitamin D supplementation (Shane doesn’t like it), but, when it comes to protecting your family from COVID-19, both recommend building up your immune system naturally. In this piece, Shane tools on the billionaire vaccination pushers who want to cure the world with a shot rather than show the benefits of, for example, clean water, washing … [Read more...]

Welcome to Phase 3 in Rhode Island: Bring Your Permission Slip

June 30, 2020 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Coronavirus Infects Stock Market: Part LXII Welcome to Phase 3 in Rhode Island, where front-page news is “Weddings, Movies, Music (are) on with Masks,” and “A New World: Should the Columbus Statue in Newport be Removed?” Talk about pressing matters. You’re in Rhode Island now, where the governor has gone wild. That’s right, Gov. Gina Raimondo says let them eat cake! But, no weddings over 50 people indoors, and only up to 100 if outdoors. But, get this, if some people scheduled large weddings pre-pandemic, exceptions will be made if the state Department of Business Regulation is consulted. … [Read more...]

Life Changes Fast: Need a Boost? Here’s Why I Did

June 29, 2020 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Coronavirus Infects Stock Market: Part LXI You know, as Your Survival Guy, I'm the guy who gets into tough situations only to discover how ill-prepared I am. You know, like when my backyard almost burned down when a tree landed on telephone wires, breaking the pole at the top, sending the distribution transformer, aka "pole pig" (filled with coils and oil ) crashing to the ground right next to one of our prehistoric trees about the size of King Kong that was ready to burn like the torch on the Statue of Liberty. As the fire department descended upon our property, Your Survival Guy quickly … [Read more...]

What Crisis is the Stock Market Living In? And You?

June 24, 2020 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Coronavirus Infects Stock Market: Part LX You really need to follow the bouncing ball in this time of crisis. Looking at the way stocks are trading, you have to wonder: what crisis is the stock market living in? Seems to me like no one has a clue. You and I know there’s a crisis. Go downtown and look around. How many businesses are struggling or will never be the same? Who do we have to thank for this? China. The China virus traveled to the U.S. via Europe, and now Europe wants to keep us out—yet is opening flights from China. You really can’t make this stuff up. No one has a … [Read more...]

Blue State Governors Punish Working Class with Severe Lockdowns

June 22, 2020 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

Coronavirus Infects Stock Market: Part LIX Severe lockdowns in blue states are driving unemployment to Depression Era levels, and devastating the finances of working-class residents. Before their governors went wild with lockdowns, these same workers had been enjoying their best economy in decades. The Journal reports on the skyrocketing unemployment in blue states: The Labor Department on Friday reported jobless rates in May for the 50 states, and the news is the greater than usual variation. Some state economies are recovering much faster than others, and the worst performing tend to be … [Read more...]
