Jeff’s note: <\/strong>On Tuesday, I passed along a piece<\/a> from my colleague and good friend Teeka Tiwari. It detailed his quest to deliver powerful, off-Wall Street investment ideas to everyday folks.<\/p>\n

Well, yesterday morning, the below essay crossed my desk. And now I understand better why Teeka is so adamant in digging up these ideas…<\/p>\n

Teeka believes the feds have rigged the game for diligent savers in America… and handed your well-deserved rewards to the Wall Street elite. That’s why next Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET, Teeka will share his latest method of fighting back.<\/a><\/p>\n

Read on to hear it straight from him…<\/p>\n

There is a “war” going on and you’re funding it…<\/p>\n

It has nothing to do with the Middle East.<\/p>\n

Although it’s funded by a new type of “tax,” the IRS doesn’t collect it… and the Defense Department doesn’t see a nickel of the money.<\/p>\n

Instead, a private group of bankers outside the control of government imposes this tax. And since the 2008 financial crisis, it’s ripped about $1.5 trillion of income out of your hands.<\/p>\n

Where did the money go?<\/p>\n

We dug into the details and found your overall “income” (I’ll explain what I mean by income in a moment) has dropped by a factor of five since 2007. So you’re getting $20 instead of $100.<\/p>\n

During the same period, the earnings of the banks and brokers behind this “tax” increased. So instead of earning $20, they’re now receiving $100.<\/p>\n

A harmless coincidence? I think not.<\/p>\n

Investment Income Under Attack<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Many folks might not realize this… but from the early 1960s to 2007, the average interest paid on a 10-year government bond was 7%. Retiring with a snug nest egg took some time, but it wasn’t impossible.<\/p>\n

If you worked hard, put money away in a bond portfolio, and reinvested your interest, $100,000 in bonds would become worth $750,000 in 30 years.<\/p>\n

All of that ended when the Federal Reserve decided to wage a “war” against declining stock prices in 2007.<\/p>\n

In its frenzied efforts to save the stock market, the Fed cut interest rates to near zero. Then, it printed $3.6 trillion in new cash to buy back distressed bonds from its banker buddies.<\/p>\n

This was not a victimless crime.<\/p>\n

You—the American saver and future retiree—got screwed.<\/p>\n

How? Remember how a $100,000 bonds portfolio would turn into $750,000?<\/p>\n

Well, instead of making $650,000 in profits over 30 years, you’ll now make just $30,000 because rates are so low.<\/p>\n

And as I mentioned, while your interest income has cratered… bank profits have soared. Annual bank profits have increased from $56 billion in 1995 to $237 billion in 2018—growing about five times.<\/p>\n

My mission has been to help everyday Americans find a way to safely plug this income gap without putting their current lifestyle at risk. It’s the reason why I’ve traveled so extensively and partnered with experts outside my core field of knowledge.<\/p>\n

It’s all in an effort to help you claw back the profits and income that’s rightly yours.<\/p>\n

$12,000 Per Month in Income?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Over the last two years, I’ve been vetting a new approach to investing that’s shown to make as much as $12,000 per month.<\/p>\n

To put that in perspective, you’d need to put $8 million in government bonds earning 1.8% to equal what this program can do with just a $25,000 account.<\/p>\n

Results like these convinced me to take some money out of my crypto investments and commit it to this system.<\/p>\n

What I love about this approach is the returns are much quicker than anything else I offer right now. The average holding time in the test was about 20 days with the longest being 77 days and the shortest being three days.<\/p>\n

Just how accurate is this approach?<\/p>\n

This system has been credited with calling most major moves in the Dow for the past two decades.<\/p>\n
