Do you have a Plan B?

Urban (and even suburban living) in 2020 has given many of us new challenges. No matter where in the world you are, a series of global lockdowns resulting in the destruction of small business and social unrest in cities has made many of us want to run to the hills. Following on from our last post “Where to invest and what The Great Reset may mean for you” we take a look at the merits of investment in rural property and food/ water security for 2021.

For those of us who live in cities or close to cities, what will life look like in 2021? Based upon current events and government policies we can make the following observations:

  • High unemployment levels courtesy of lockdowns
  • A universal/basic wage for many (due to the above)
  • Global depression
  • United Nations alert on global food shortage
  • Technocratic control of society under emergency health acts
  • Lack of privacy courtesy of tracking and tracing systems
  • Mandatory mask wearing
  • Mandatory vaccines

For those individuals who have read George Orwell’s 1984 or The Hunger Games by Suzanne Colins, as you look forward into 2021 you may be forgiven for experiencing a certain feeling of dystopian depression. However, never fear, The World Economic Forum as part of their plan for “The Great Reset” have commissioned a spokesperson to describe what life may be like for many of us in the future. Ida Auken Danish MP describes the “benefits” of living in a smart city on the WEF website. It is a very interesting piece. Here is an excerpt:

My biggest concern is all the people who do not live in our city. Those we lost on the way. Those who decided that it became too much, all this technology. Those who felt obsolete and useless when robots and AI took over big parts of our jobs. Those who got upset with the political system and turned against it. They live different kind of lives outside of the city. Some have formed little self-supplying communities. Others just stayed in the empty and abandoned houses in small 19th century villages. 

Once in awhile I get annoyed about the fact that I have no real privacy. No where I can go and not be registered. I know that, somewhere, everything I do, think and dream of is recorded. I just hope that nobody will use it against me.

Although this World Economic Forum article is written as a discussion piece, it is written by a Member of the Danish Parliament and obviously with some insight. It certainly paints a picture of what life may look like after Klaus Schwab’s Fourth Industrial Revolution which he predicts “will lead to a fusion of our physical, digital and biological identity.” 

Time for Plan B?

In the Western economies, during the second half of 2020 we have observed empty cities as a large proportion of people work from home, and we have seen the subsequent downturn in the value of commercial realestate whether that is office space or retail. In the first wave, we have seen suburban regeneration and suburban property prices rise as many realised that living in suburbia and working from home was preferable to the quality of life in urban ghost towns. As 2020 draws to a close we are currently observing a dash for rural property as global lockdowns continue, economic meltdown looms and things that we have taken for granted in the past (like supermarket shelves always being full) begin to make increasing numbers of us want to escape the madness and ensure food security for our families.

For those who dream of a rural escape or would like to have a plan B for 2021, we believe that the option of rural, sustainable community living on a few acres of land may be one of the best investments to make for your family in 2021. The Ark Project offers the option to buy or lease rural land at affordable prices and aims to replicate communities wherever suitable land can be found. If the madness continues, the project may provide a safe, natural, healthy environment to live in. If the madness stops, having a place to take a rural vacation in nature could be a wonderful investment.

Where to invest and what “The Great Reset” may mean for you

Thankfully the year 2020 is drawing to a close. As we look to 2021 and beyond, Resurgent Group take a look at how global economics will dictate your income, your savings, investments and family wealth. For those of you who have not studied the goals of The World Economic Forum or read the recently published book written by the World Economic Forum’s Chairman Klaus Schwab, we suggest you do so immediately.

The World Economic Forum, based in Cologny, Geneva Canton, Switzerland, is an international NGO, founded in 1971. The WEF’s mission is stated as “committed to improving the state of the world by engaging business, political, academic, and other leaders of society to shape global, regional, and industry agendas”. You should be aware that wherever you are in the world, your government and industry leaders will probably have participated at some point in WEF summits held at Davos annually since 1971.

In Schwab’s book, the founder and Chairman of the WEF makes it clear that transhumanism is an integral part of “The Great Reset” when he says that the fourth industrial revolution would “lead to a fusion of our physical, digital and biological identity.” Scarily, those mandatory RNA based vaccines complete with trackable, digital identities now begin to make sense.

Now, in 2020, many world leaders including Canada’s Justin Trudeau are talking openly about the need for “The Great Reset” and it would appear that across the globe governments are introducing emergency laws and policies that reflect preparation for such an event.

So, with a global recession looming and government policies being shaped by global agendas, where do you, the individual stand? Let’s take a look behind the scenes.

Sometime this year, world public and private unfunded pensions will surpass $300 trillion. One look at the World Debt Clock will give you financial nightmares because on top of that, there are also government unfunded liabilities. Oops. These obligations cannot be paid. A time is coming when the market and populations will realise this. As this article is being written we are looking at the potential collapse of the US dollar and with it the USA as a dominant world power.

Will governments decide to tax “the rich” more? Will they increase their goods and service tax rates and further slow growth? Will they reduce benefits? No matter what they decide, hard choices will bring political turmoil.

And that, of course, will mean market turmoil.

The Great Reset Will Cause a Horrible Global Recession

As “The Great Reset” hits, we will have to deal, one way or another, with the largest twin bubbles in the history of the world. One of those bubbles is global debt, especially government debt. The other is the even larger bubble of government promises.

As investors, we’re always balancing our desire to grow our money with our fear of losing it. That balancing act has never been tougher.

The New Normal

As we are encouraged by main stream media and official narrative to accept a “New Normal” we realise that our world has changed irrevocably. Our “New Normal” will incorporate a cashless society, an increase in technology, an increase in technocracy, massive unemployment, AI driven digital tracking and surveillance and possibly (thanks to The Great Reset), the introduction of a universal wage. It looks increasingly as though the “New Normal” will actively exclude entrepreneurs and small business. In fact, if you listen to The World Economic Forum’s 8 Predictions for 2030, as an individual “You will own nothing and be happy”

Does this sounds a bit like global communism?

The “New Normal” means that your current savings and investments need to be re-evaluated and any new investments carefully considered in the light of global events. The old “buy and hold” strategy just isn’t a viable investment strategy anymore. Over the next few years as the global economy goes through its transition, many tried-and-true investment strategies will unfortunately saddle investors with subpar returns, sleepless nights, and delayed retirements (if such a concept exists after 2030!)

In Conclusion

Traditional investing as we have known it is now officially no longer the way to view the world. It is very clear that 2021 and beyond will be a world of massive uncertainty, with much more government control, red tape, lack of privacy, mandatory vaccination programs, restricted movement and (using the vehicle of emergency powers), a global governing body working towards the goals of the WEF.

Admittedly, right now, one could be forgiven for wanting to stuff any savings under ones mattress and bury ones head in the sand! However, some investment opportunities still exist. Obviously, in order to look at where to invest, one must consider what investments, commodities and services will be of value during a global recession. In addition, one needs to ascertain which ones are likely to survive the ever increasing restrictions imposed by lockdowns, public health remits, social unrest, restricted supply chains etc.

At Resurgent Consulting we have identified certain investment opportunities across various sectors of our expertise. One such investment opportunity is in property, and in particular rural land. If you haven’t already, take a look at The Ark Project on our main site.

Alternatively, Resurgent Group understand the small business sector. Sadly, small business has already been destroyed globally. It is estimated that over 80% of UK small businesses will not survive this second lockdown. Similar numbers are being projected in the US and Europe. Some parts of the world have yet to experience their second round of lockdowns but the outcome for small business and unemployment is simple to predict when watching the actions of the global agenda overseas.

Many small businesses have entered into administration/liquidation over the last 12 months with a significant number of business owners try to sell-out before the inevitable. Resurgent Group has identified certain small business sectors that may provide short-term investment opportunities subject to meeting specific criteria. For more information on how to identify and evaluate these opportunities sign up to our free newsletter. Our January 2021 edition will walk you through how to re-evaluate business EBITA, why you should disregard and recalculate businesses goodwill and how to identify small businesses that will not only survive but may actually thrive through this “Great Reset”  

We’ll also be looking at the pros and cons of other areas of investment including crypto currency, gold, silver, and food. Our newsletter is free and we share some interesting insights and data.
