ESF has run out of ammunition

Sun, 01/01/2012 - 05:30
It is impossible to understand the world today without knowing what the ESF is and what it has been doing. Officially in charge of defending the dollar, the ESF is the government agency which controls the New York Fed, runs the CIA's black budget, and is the architect of the world's monetary system (IMF, World Bank, etc). ESF financing (through the OSS and then the CIA) built up the worldwide propaganda network which has so badly distorted history today (including erasing awareness of its existence from popular consciousness). It has been directly involved in virtually every major US fraud/scandal since its creation in 1934: the London gold pool, the Kennedy assassinations, Iran-Contra, CIA drug trafficking, HIV, and worse...

Diapers is a low margin business, requiring a huge up front
infrastructure cost for manufacturing and distribution.

There's a MUCH better business for Gen-Xers if they really want to
make money:

Suicide kits.

This would have the following advantages for Gen-Xers:

Seeing Boomers kill themselves would be a very satisfying and
pleasant career for Gen-Xers.
The kit could be made up of perfectly legal items, easily
assembled: A large plastic bag, a large elastic or flexible gymnastic
band that fits around the neck to hold the bag in place snugly, a
cardboard hat or sweatband to hold the plastic bag away from the face,
vinyl or plastic tubing, a tank of pure helium or nitrogen, adhesive
tape to hold the tubing in place, and various over the counter
medications used in different scenarios, such as ten bottles of
Sominex or ten bottles of caffeine.
Because of the overwhelming demand of these kits from Boomers, the
Gen-Xer would be able to mark the costs up substantially -- possibly
to $700-1000 per kit.
The kit could be sold online, and mailed to the Boomer in a plain
brown wrapper. Depending on the legal situation, it could be shipped
from a foreign country.

This is the perfect money-making business for a Gen-Xer, and a great
career choice -- much better than any of your suggestions.

Last thought on this. 20 years ago (in 1998) I had a realization.

The Boomers beat me to the good jobs. Nothing I could do about it.

They beat me to the cheap real estate and drove house prices up. Again nothing I could do.

Then I thought they haven't retired yet. I'm going to buy a retirement property and sell it to a Boomer and get my due. I headed out to Idaho near a ski resort and looked at properties. It was the Fall of 1998 and I timed my trip during the 1998 "Asia Contagion". There was a really nice property listed for 89K and I bought it for 55K.

I waited 6 years and called my Boomer broker and asked him if prices were up and he said yes. He sent me a listing contract for $119K with 10% commission. I thought if he could get 119K I'd give him the 10% and signed it and mailed it back.

A Boomer called me and asked if I'd lower the price. I told him no, the other Boomer is charging me 10% commission. Ask him to lower his commission.

The Boomer wouldn't lower the commission and the other Boomer paid the 119K.

My Silent relatives loved that story for some reason.

What I'm saying is figure out something to sell to the Boomers and have them invest in you that way.

Only wealthy Boomers are retiring, Middle Class and working class boomers can't afford to retire, Political Class/Academic Class Boomers however refuse to retire.

Excellent suggestion. The Boomer hating Millennial could relocate to Namibia and sell the kits from there. That would guarantee a great income stream until the Boomers get annihilated in a potential nuclear war or societal collapse.

And I would add that no Millennial can claim any longer that you or the Boomers who buy their kits weren't trying to help them.

You also raise a good point in that, if Boomer commit suicide en masse they won't be buying food or diapers either one.

Also, Boomers won't be Hoovering up benefits, something CH86 often
complains about.

Figure out what to sell them now. That was what I figured out in 1998 when they thought they were going to retire.

Boomers have a flair from making dramatic entrances and exits, so how about a suicide travel package to your favorite suicide destination which includes one way air fare, suicide by your preferred method in the company of fellow Boomers, funeral, and burial, all for $2599, or something like that. One possible package might be a one way ticket to Guyana with reenactment of the Jim Jones Kool-Aid right on the original site, for example.

I don't see how that would work. Suicide is a highly personal
decision that you can't even share with people. If you try to talk
about it with someone, they get mad at you. No one except a maniac
would try to sell a suicide trip to his friends and family.

Xers and Millies do not want boomers to carry out mass suicide. They Merely want boomers leaders to share power with the young, pave the way for the passing of the torch to young people and give up the usual boomer policy of "full-steam ahead" whenever the proverbial Titanic Sees an Iceberg and instead try to go around the "Icebergs".
