What if I told you that in the near future, your money could have an expiry date? Or that your ability to buy a second home or an investment property could be stopped by a central bank algorithm telling you no. It might sound like sci-fi, but by 2030, this could actually be a reality. And it's called CBDC's.
The politicians will tell you that CBDC's are all about efficiency and innovation, but in reality, it's all about surveillance and control. They know that if they control the currency, then they control the citizen. I've been researching this roll out of central bank digital currencies for years. And things are now looking like they're about to get serious. So, in this video, we're about to look into what are CBDC's, the social credit risks that they bring, and how to hedge your wealth before the old financial system is closed off forever.
According to Atlantic Council, right now there are 137 countries that are currently working on bringing CBDC's into their banking system in that country. And we know that in the UK that's one of the forerunners. We saw Rishi Sunnak. We now see Kia Star talking about CBDC's. We've heard the talk of Britcoin coming into the UK.
But what actually is a CBDC? Well, it stands for a central banking digitalized currency which will be used to phase out traditional fiat money, cash as we know it. It will completely reset and rewrite the banking system as we currently know it. And it will give the government and the elites complete control over how we spend our everyday money.
At the moment, if I want to give you cash, I can just give you cash. I could pay you £100 in cash. There's no fees for that. There's no control. It's free. It's a free market. I can give you cash. You then can give me something. Freedom. Great.
With cryptocurrency, same story. If I want to give you Bitcoin or if you want to give me Bitcoin, you can do that freely. Even bank transfers. If you want to give me fiat money in the form of a bank transfer, I can say to you, can you please wire me £1,000? And you can wire me £1,000 somewhat free. Although now the banks now are going to start asking questions. Now it's going through the banking system. So the banks will be like, "Okay, well, what's it for? Can you trust this person?" They could even block the payment. They could freeze the payment. They could even block your bank.
As the government get more and more controlling and as the banking systems get more and more controlling, it's so difficult to move money around. I mean, if I want to pay you £1,000, I'm going to have to answer a million questions. If I want to pay you a million pounds, I'm probably not going to be able to do it. I mean, when I set up a new company in Dubai, I wanted to move money from my UK account to my Dubai account, and I wanted to move a couple hundred,000. It was an absolute nightmare. Even though I was paying money effectively to myself, the banks did not want it to leave the account. They were making me jump through hoops.
That's why the people are now moving towards cryptocurrency because they're tired of working for money, putting it in the bank or having having it paid into their bank and it not feeling like their money. So cryptocurrency is the people's money. You can move it around instantly and freely on the blockchain. And there's a lot of people that don't just use the blockchain or use Bitcoin to pay people, but they actually invest into Bitcoin. Myself included. I invest into Bitcoin number one because I want freedom. I want to be able to move my money around how I want to move it around. I want to be able to pay people without having to answer to the banks when it's my money. But also with Bitcoin, there's a limited capped number of Bitcoin that they'll ever be able to be. Unlike money, which they can just keep printing and printing and printing and printing endlessly, meanwhile, the money ends up losing its value, with Bitcoin, it's capped.
It's quite interesting, isn't it, that if you want to gamble your money and you want to put £1,000 into gambling in casinos, the banks will generally happily let you do that. Gamble away. But if you want to put just a small amount, £100 into Bitcoin from your bank, they'll ask you a million questions. Because they'll freeze the account and treat you like a criminal just because you want to have control of your own money.
And traditional UK schools, and believe me, I know because I had to pull my kids out of traditional UK schools. If you speak to your teachers about cryptocurrencies, it's very much this is high-risk. We don't talk about that. We don't do that. You can lose everything. Okay? And instead, what what do they what do they teach you? Save your money into ISAs and savings accounts. Why? Because when your money is in ISIS and when it's in savings accounts, it's controlled by the banks. And the banks are backed by the governments. So it's part of the ecosystem because the banks who are their boss? Well, ultimately the government. The government can tell them what to do. They answer to the government. And when they go bankrupt, it's always the government bailing them out.
In 2008, when there was a massive credit crunch and all the banks were going bust, what were the government doing? Bailing people out. They bailed out Lloyd's Bank. Lloyd's Bank would have gone bust if the government didn't loan them money. And I don't think the government particularly like us having our own cryptocurrencies. I don't think the governments generally like it. I mean, China is a great example because China have repeatedly restricted even banned and then unbanned and then banned again investing in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. And the same has happened with gold, real money. I mean, even the USA, America banned owning gold in 1933. That was less than 100 years ago. And they just banned you owning gold. If you own gold, you have to give it to us, the Federal Reserve. And if you don't, we have surveillance. We pay snitches. We will find out and we'll put you in prison. Absolutely mind-blowing. They only unbanned owning gold in America in 1974. I mean, that wasn't that long ago. Your parents were probably born before 1974, and now we have cryptocurrency.
Do you think the governments like it? Do you think they like us having control of our own money where we can actually move money around and pay one another and say, "No thank you. We're not going to pay your transaction fees. No thank you. We're not going to jump through hoops and fill out forms. No thank you. We're not going to have to give you an account for what we're doing with our own money. We have cryptocurrencies. Do you think they're going to like that?" No.
Hence why they're bringing in CBDC's, which is their own version of cryptocurrency. It's going to sit on the blockchain in the same way. The only difference is the whole point of cryptocurrency is that we have freedom. It's the people's money. We can do we do what we want. We move it around. Whereas CBDC's is them jumping on the bandwagon because too many people are investing in cryptocurrency saying this is going to be cryptocurrency but we're going to take away the freedom of it because it's going to be owned and controlled by the central banks, the government.
When I was 14 years old and I had a little bank account, Bradford and Bingley, every day I'd sell some stuff at school, make a little bit of money, and then I'd go to the Bradford and Bingley and I'd put my money into the bank and they'd give me a little purple book and I'd see my money going up and and that that was what I did. It felt like it was my money and then if I wanted to take it out and if I wanted to spend it, it went I did. When I first invested some money, I got a mentor and I invested £35,000 when I was just 17 years old. Fine. Now it's just different. Now I wouldn't even be able to walk to the Bradford Luming. You know why? Because it's closed down. And if it wasn't closed down, if it was Lloyd's Bank, which is still open, it closes down at 2:30. 2:30. They are closing down so many banks. Why? Why are they closing down hundreds and hundreds of banks in the UK? Because it's going to be a thing of the past. Going to a bank, bringing physical cash. Cash is going to be a thing of the past. This will be extinct. The only value this will be will be souvenirs to be able to say do you remember like the Zimbabwean money the Zimbabwean dollars I tried to pay 1 billion Zimbabwean dollars for some toilet paper and they said no we don't accept that ironically it was actually more valuable than the toilet paper but only because it's a souvenir it's a collectible item that's going to be the same with the great British pound.
What will happen then when this shrinks to zero? Well, if you've got money in the bank and your money shrinks to zero? Well, it's it is happening. In 2020 during lockdown, if you had £100,000 in the bank, that would be the equivalent today to around £57,000. Your money has lost almost half of its value since lockdown.
In October 2023, I wrote a book called The Future of Money. And I showed my lawyer before I published the book, and they said, "You have to remove a few things." And I'm like, "What do I need to remove?" And they said, "I need to remove this, this, this." and it would have weakened the book. And I said, "But the thing is everything I'm saying is true." They said, "Doesn't matter if it's true or false. If you publish that, you will get into trouble." Anyway, I decided, you know what? My lawyer is woke. I will fire my lawyer and I will publish the book anyway. And I didn't. You know what happened? My lawyer was right. My bank closed me down. Just. And I'm like, why are you closing me down? We're not going to tell you. We're just closing you down. My bank closed me down. People like Nigel Fraj, the leader of the Reform Party, he had his bank closed down. But also worse than that, when he tried to open up a new bank with a completely different, they said, "No, sorry. We're not going to bank with you." He almost had to leave the UK because no one would bank with him because the banks are all owned generally by the same people, certainly controlled by the same people.
This is not just a UK thing either. If you look at Canada, during the lockdowns in Canada, there were some truckers who were protesting about the lockdowns. And you know what happened? Yes, people were arrested. Absolutely. But you know what they also did? Close down their banks. There were 200 truckers that were protesting and Justin Trudeau, the woke leader of Canada at the time, just closed down 200 bank accounts. This was called the Emergency Act. It had never ever been done before in Canadian history, but 200 banks just got frozen. Now, if they had had cash, they can still pay for their petrol, but if you've got no bank and there's no cash, then you're kind of screwed.
So what what's happening is the governments are banning cash or at least making it extinct so no one wants it just like in Zimbabwe and many other countries when the currency becomes trash and it's just not worth anything but rather than replacing it with a new currency or rather than like Zimbabwe them just using the American dollar cuz the same things happen with the American dollar it will go to zero because instead we have CBDC's but CBDC's can be closed down so suddenly because you say the wrong thing because you're a little bit controversial because you tweeted something that they didn't like, then close you off.
The Tate brothers, they can't bank with anybody. They they don't have bank cards. Andrew and Tristan Tate have to have one of their friends, Justin, who buys everything for them, and then they transfer the money, probably cryptocurrency, to their friend, Justin. But you know what they're also probably doing time? They'll probably ban you from doing that. You can't give money to someone who's been frozen down. In fact, would you even be able to give the money? Because imagine if the government bring in CBDC's as a new cryptocurrency that's safe and then they say, "Oh, Bitcoin, there's some criminals using Bitcoin, so we're going to close Bitcoin down and ban it." And if you protest and resist, then we're going to shame you, and all of the media are going to print stories and are going to say, "Bitcoin are being used by criminals, but there's some awful people who are supporting the criminals by continuing to use Bitcoin." And then your friends and family in the same way as when they said, "My grandma died of COVID and you're not taking the vaccine. You killed my grandma." People are so dumb and stupid. The same's going to happen with CBDC's. Cash will be extinct and they will fight our freedoms to be able to have control over our own money that we earn money on and we paid taxes on.
The good news is I think people are waking up to the fact of what is happening and can see right through it. This happened with the digital IDs because what the government always do is they create a problem then they cause a reaction using the media who they control by the way and then when the reaction comes they then bring in a solution. We saw this with co where they bring in a problem then they create a reaction put it all over the news and then bring in the solutions which aren't actually to help us the solutions are actually to put money in their pocket and to help the elites. We saw it with the digital ID where they said the illegal immigrants are coming in. Isn't it terrible? Illegal immigration. Legal immigration. Well, hang on. They're opening up the borders. They're in control of home office and then they're talking about it and then the media are talking about it and then they go, "Right, don't worry. We got a solution. Digital IDs." What? How is that a solution? How's about closing the borders? How's about speeding up home office? What digital IDs? Really? They've been talking about digital IDs and planning it for over 10 years. You can even go back to Tony Blair in office planning for digital IDs but now Karma says oh we've just come up with this genius idea digital IDs but because the people can see through it now because people like me and many others will speak up and expose it and I'm not speaking from a position of being an outsider. I'm kind of know what I'm talking about. I've made many millions of pounds. I personally have my bank closed down. I know many billionaires. I'm investing heavily not just in the UK but also in other countries. I kind of know what's going on.
So the good news is people are waking up and when we resist together. I mean imagine if every single person in the UK Imagine if we all just said we're not paying tax. No, we're not pay we're not going to pay tax. Now if you did that on your own, you'd be put in prison. But if everybody did it, what can they do? You're going to put us all in prison. Their plan is that they can tax us whatever we want and we just pay it and we don't moan and we can't even argue. I mean the agenda is they're going to link digital ID which will will become mandatory. They're going to link that to the CBDC. So our money which is linked to us which we don't have any control of because they can turn it off at any point is all linked to a social credit system. So they can track us using AI. Now I know this sounds like a conspira Oh come on Samuel but this is what is happening. They're going to use AI, link everything to all of our social media accounts, our work, even our carbon admissions, how much we drive, how much meat we eat, because they know how much meat we're eating cuz we can't fight with cash cuz cash doesn't cash is banned. So, it's all tracked. And then if you're a naughty boy or a naughty girl or you tweet something that's a little bit opposing to the government or you say something that's politically uncorrect, that will then be a mark against you on the social credit score. And if you have too many marks, you're just cut off. Who needs prisons when they can just say stay at home, but you have no money, you have no petrol, you have no food.
If you bank with Nat West and others, but I know Nat West do this. Look at your bank statement and it will tell you how much CO2 you've been emitting with your spending and it will then suggest ways that you can reduce this. You know, eat less meat, don't leave the country too often because if you're flying more than once a year, then you're increasing carbon emissions. And if you think it sounds extreme to have a social credit system, this is happening in other countries. It's not that extreme. It's happening and the UK is heading this way. This is the agenda. When CBDC's come come through and that's the world that we live in.
I mean, the government will love this because they will just be able to tax you straight away immediately. They're testing this even at the moment. The HMRC's new powers can just take money out of your bank account if they believe that you owe them money. There are some stipulations, you know, you can't have less than, I think, £1,000 in your bank, otherwise they won't do this. But they're testing it. It's in testing mode. Oh, you owe us money, right? Get access to your bank. That's when people say, "Oh, the governments and the banks aren't really in cahoots." They kind of are. The fact that the banks just give the government just give HMRC access to your money. Even if you live abroad, if you live overseas, if you're a UK resident, even if you move country, the HMRC can still see everything that goes in and leaves your bank account. And that's today. That's not one day. That's today.
Number two is they can control your spending amount. So, they can say, "Right, this is how much money you've got. This is how much needs to be spent. You can only spend X amount on meat. You can't um spend too much on on travel. This is already their agenda. If you're traveling more than twice a year already, they are using AI to be able to see the people that are leaving the country a lot. And then they'll be like, "Oh, they're leaving the country more than twice. Let's look at their bank account. Let's see how much taxes this is. This is happening."
They could even put an expired date on your money and say, "Right, this expires." They do this already, don't they, with cash where they'll say, "This this this expires in a year's time." But you don't have to spend it. You can put it into the bank. But imagine if you've got CBDC's and they just say right this type of currency is going to expire. You need to spend this by this time. We just lose complete control over our freedoms, over our finances, and this is where the central banks and the governments are heading.
So what should you be doing right now to prepare for the inevitable? Well, my advice and what I teach my kids and what I'll share with you as well is number one, you should own nothing. Personally, don't own properties and assets and cryptocurrencies in your personal name. Now, if you're starting out in property and you're just buying your first house, I'm not saying never buy in your personal name, but if you're building an empire, Warren Buffett says this, own nothing and control everything. What does that mean? Well, rich people like myself, they don't have their money in their personal name where they can just have it taken from the government, where they can be sued, where they can be prosecuted and have to give up their wealth. They have their money in companies. They have their money in trusts in foundations where they're just an employee. We own nothing. So that's the first thing.
The second thing is you should leverage debt. So money which is shrinking take this now in form of debt so that you owe it back but by the time you come to pay it it's shrunk. If you'd have taken £100,000 in 2020 and invested it into real assets. When that £100,000 halved because of inflation, well your debt shrunk. Meanwhile, your assets grown. Property prices have gone up considerably since 2020. And when you own real assets like property, which is my favorite asset class, my companies, my foundation trust own property, which I am the protector of. I have control of own nothing, control everything. But those properties, if they bring in CBDC's, if I want to rent them out, I can I've got tenants that pay me in Bitcoin because I've got an actual asset. I've got an actual commodity that I can get cash flow from in whatever currency, whatever format I want. I could even say stay at my property and you know what I want? I want to barter with you. In return, I want you to give me food, bring me cows and cattle, whatever. Pay me in gold. So, own real tangible assets. Structure it with debt, fiat money which is shrinking and own it in such a way whereby you are not liable and no one can take it from you with a divorce, with a government attack, with a media attack, with someone suing you. You can't have it taken from you.
And finally, become a global citizen. Have multiple residencies across the world. I personally am a big believer that the UK is one of the best countries in the world for making money. However, once you've made it, you're going to get attacked. You're going to get taxed. You're going to get all kinds of issues. So, if you can have multiple residencies in different countries and do this strategically, then it means that if a one country gets too bad, you can go, you know what, I'm a residency of that country. I'm going to slip out for a bit. I've got companies in different countries. So, become a global citizen, become a sovereign individual, and then have true financial independence.
Historically, in my lifetime, we've always had three types of people. We've had the rich, very small part of the population. The poor, very small percentage of people and the comfortable, working-ass, middle class, that's 80, 90% of people. What is happening now is the comfortable, the middle class, the work that is being extinct. There is now only two types of people beginning to exist in the United Kingdom and across the world. And that is rich and poor. That is it. You must now make a decision. Will you be rich or will you be poor? Because comfortable is no longer a thing.
If you're making 2, three grand a month and you're an engineer, either AI is going to take your job, you're going to end up destitute, and you will be absolute slave to the system. But they'll be telling you you can't travel, you can't eat too much meat, or you will be a sovereign individual with assets taking payments in cryptocurrency, you'll be rich. Do you think that the government would ever do something where they make it impossible to be rich? NO. WHY? BECAUSE THEY'RE RICH.
So, this is the time to really prepare. And this is the last opportunity. I'm telling you now, by 2030, there's going to be people saying, "I wish I'd listened to Samuel." I am mentoring and training people for free. I don't have to do this right now. I'm in a mansion. My wife and kids right now are sunbathing on the beach and I'm making this video. You have a choice now today. But this is your opportunity.
Now, I'm running a free training. Now, you can, if you want, say, "Oh, Samuel's running a training. He's probably going to sell me something. Oh, he's probably blah blah blah." That's fine. But you will be the poor category in 2030. Or you can join the rich. Join the thousands of people that have said, "You know what? I'm going to have a listen. I'm actually going to follow what Samuel says. Not be a follower of me. Be a student of me. Not be a mini version of Samuel Leaves. No, follow what I have done financially. You you can you can be completely different. So, you know, I mean, I'm a little bit overweight. I'm a little bit this. I'm not good at lots of things, but when it comes to finances, I'm doing okay. I make seven figures profit per month. So, you might not even like me, but you know what? Listen to what I'm saying because this I want you to do this for not just you, but for your kids and your kids kids.
So, I've left a link below on the description. You will lose nothing apart from an hour and a half of your time, but I'm going to be mapping out exactly how to everything I'm talking about. I'm going to map out not the problem, not the noise, but the actual solution step by step which you can follow and one day maybe we'll have a beer and a cigar. So I'll leave a link in the description. Click the link, register for free, and I'll see you on the online free virtual training.
