1. Recruiting officers won’t tell you that you’ll fight for your benefits when you come back maimed from combat in service to your country.
2. A career in law enforcement isn’t about helping people. It’s about cleaning up the mess and making a report after it has happened, and acting as the muscle for corrupt authorities. Cops are not your friends. Don’t speak to them about anything, or invite them onto your property. Don’t consent to searches of your person or your property.
3. Banks and credit card companies have one goal. To get you in just enough debt in cooperation with overtaxation of your wages by government that you’ll forever be making payments and never pay off your balance.
4. Everything of real value that you will learn and unlearn happens after you escape public school and socialist captured centres of higher education. Read and travel.
5. The government does not have your best interests at heart.
6. Do everything you can when you’re young to cultivate skills that you can sell for cash or trade. Employment is a hamster wheel designed to keep you at zero.
7. The money you contribute involuntarily every month in the form of government pension deductions, if invested instead at a modest 10% rate of return over the course of your working life, would be worth MILLIONS. Not a measly $800-$1200 cheque every month. If you even end up receiving it. Try to turn something you love into a means of earning income, and buy assets not liabilities.
8. Your ability to create consequences in your life grows faster than your ability to consider consequences ahead of time. Think about the consequences of what you are considering doing before you act.
9. Commitments made through marriage are not just emotional. They involve optionality that you may or may not have later in life, ranging from where you choose to live to whether or not you really want to take a stand or be a martyr against tyranny.
10. Learn everything you can about what money is and how it is currently being used as a tool of enslavement through taxation and inflation. Learn what it is, how it came into being, and how it has been utterly corrupted to enrich the few.
11. Take control of your food security, water security and your ability to defend yourself and your family. Be able to survive if the bank machines and the grocery stores suddenly stop working forever. Buy land and build an off grid capable place to call home instead of buying a fiat house in the burbs.
12. The majority opinion is usually wrong. Don’t be afraid to not fit in.
