Holiday is coming up. And I’m still in need of a good book to take with me. What would you recommend?

I’m thinking to buy Broken Money by nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a

Any other recommendations in that category?

I'm interested as well .. need a list

Broken Money yes, highly recommended.

But look at The Fourth Turning as well.

The fourth turning? What’s it about?

It analyses thousands of years of history and it identifies that there is a 80 year cycle, starting from the premise that generations create history and history creates generations. So our next turning is in 2030s. Last was in 1940s, remember WW2 and the Breton Woods system, it just turned 80 years old. So BTC monetary system might be the next thing if we have a successful Fourth Turning. Lyn Alden was also quite into this pattern and it complements really well Broken Money.

Oh wow! I missed this comment, but sure looks interesting!

No problem. Give it a read. If you have any recommendations on books that would help me have a better guess on the next 10 years please share.

There is a new print in that is called The Fourth Turning is Here by one of the two authors Neil Howe (William Strauss passed away). The first book was published in 1997 and there is this paragraph in it saying that after 2005 we should see a great financial crisis, a pandemic, and Russia invading Latvia. Well they got the latter country wrong but will not hold that against them.

Yes, 4th turning is a must if you haven’t read!

I don't recommend any books printed too recently, the publishing industry is too far gone

I've been enjoying reading some Frederic Bastiat, the law is a good little read. 🤟

- Dark calories

- fiat food

- psychology of money

- price of tomorrow

Nice! Do they have dutch translations?

I think all of them are accessible in Dutch

What topics are covered in he Dark Calories book? I think I’ll go with that one tbh

Seed oils, cholesterol scam,…

Would say one of the best and easiest to read books on fiat food

Kinda doubting between this one, and fiat foods haha

Both are my favorite books about food

Dark calories is more about health itself. It explains why and how your body works and what seed oils do

Fiat food is about the entire system behind it. The corrupt pharma industry, the corrupt health industry,…

Thx man!
