Russia on Brink of Default & Collapse 😳

So Russia is on the brink of defaulting on loans it owes to other countries for the first time in nearly 40 years. Is this the start of a global economic collapse? What I don't think many people understand is it's all very well slamming a load of sanctions against Russia But of course, Russia supply a lot of energy to the rest of the world, and that has a huge knock-on effect that we're all feeling with the soaring cost of living, of food and gas and electric and energy. Now, Russia, it has $100 million of interest payments that it needs to make. And it's got the money apparently, but the sanctions are stopping Russia on paying the interest on its loans. Now, like I said, it's all very well slamming these sanctions to Russia, but what about the knock-on consequences of this? Russia have called this a farce, and whilst I understand the financial sanctions might help with the war against Ukraine, would it not be wise to allow Russia to pay its debts? And is that not just stoking the bear? Um, Sean has said there that debt kills dreams, debt kills economies, debt can ultimately kill people. It's one of the, the great causes of suicide is, you know, financial anxiety. Sean Paul has said a world financial crash is already happening, so This is very concerning. Now, I always thought there's going to be massive consequences of UK, America, and NATO heavily intervening in the Russian-Ukraine war. I always thought there's going to be massive financial consequences of the lockdowns and the, the supply chains being completely dried up. The massive taxation. And I wonder if this is going to move us into a Great Depression. Now look, I'm not a doom monger. I am a reality monger. And I think you must understand that this could happen. We're probably the closest we've ever been to World War III. And we're probably as close as we've ever been to another global recession or maybe even a depression. So let me know what you think in the comments. Do you think that forcing Russia to default on debt that it can afford to pay— do you think this is, um, a wise move? Do you think these sanctions are fair? How, how's Putin and Russia gonna stop? Here's the thing, um, a billionaire said to me that some of the greatest advice he ever received was, if you back a rat into a corner always give it an exit route, always open up a hole for it to leave through. And if you keep backing Putin into a corner and you don't give him any options, what's going to happen? Bloody nukes and World War III. Why can't you get on the negotiation table? Why can't you sort something out with Putin and Russia? Like, have we lost our ability to strike deals and to negotiate? You know, through the ages we've had treaties. We don't seem to be able to agree or organize fucking anything right now. Like these unions and all these strikes. The government and the unions in the rail can't even sit down and have an adult conversation and sort a deal out. They've tried twice, the talks have failed. Now the airlines are going to follow suit. I kept saying this, Boris ain't listening to me. Boris! Vladdy! Watch my lives! But the knock-on effect of not being able to agree deals and terms— there's always a meet in the middle. It's like humanity has lost its ability to think in terms of common sense and get rid of its ego and its emotion. Crazy shit going on right now. So, um, let me know what you think in the comments. Quick summary is that Russia is about to default on its debt for the first time in nearly 40 years. It has the money, it's ready to pay, but because of all the sanctions imposed across the world, it can't literally pay its debt that it has to pay. I think this is dangerous. I think there seems to be a desire for NATO and UK and America to pump billions into the war. But by the way, who's paying for the war? You are. I am. We are. The tax is going up. The cost of living is going up. That's how we're paying for the war. Inflation is a form of tax, and tax is a form of theft. Where do you think all the money for wars comes from? It comes from tax. That's how tax originally started, to fund wars. That's how we got off the gold standard, to fund wars. And now we have this debased, useless, worthless currency We have countries defaulting on debt. We have a soaring cost of living of fuel, gas, food, energy. Worldwide crisis coming. To me, this is real. I'd love your thoughts in the comments. Please let me know what you think. Um, look, politics is complicated, so it would be easy for me to just say, oh, let Russia pay its debts. I'll go and have a chat with Putin and sort a deal out. I get that it's very complicated, but I don't see the willingness with these governments. Now, Donna said peace is the only solution. Don, I love your, um, thinking here. Unfortunately, if you roll over, people take advantage of you. So I think forceful or strong peace— peace but with a backbone, with a vision. Here's the problem in politics: no one stays in long enough to be able to have a long-term vision. What is the vision of Boris and the UK? To get UK back in a good financial state. I mean, it doesn't even really seem to care about the freaking economy. Doesn't seem to care at all. Not supporting small business owners, not controlling taxation, not controlling inflation. Doesn't seem to care. So I'd love your thoughts on this. Now, yes, peace is the answer, but I also think personal financial freedom, personal financial independence, the ability to not be reliant on the system, to be decentralized, to speak up on social media, to be independent. I believe this is also a great solution. If we all stand up and speak out, if we're all financially independent, if we're all relatively decentralized, if we're not all controlled by the banks and the governments, then we can do something about it. So if you'd like to start and scale your own business, you'd like to be decentralized, you, you'd like to not be a victim of the government, of inflation, of taxation, if you'd like to create multiple streams of income, be able to use your content for good, turn content into cash flow, information into income, and actually make a difference, go and join Rob.team right now.

Open a window, type in, you know, a page on the internet, type in rob.team, because Russia are just about to default on £100 million worth of interest, um, or dollars. And they've got the money, but the sanctions are stopping them paying. Well, in some ways, financial sanctions, I believe, is better than tanks and guns and planes. However, there's going to be a massive knock-on consequence of this. What do you think, Putin's just going to go 'Oh well, we defaulted on our loans.' We haven't for 40 years. We're proud that we haven't defaulted on any of our loans. We've got the money, we want to pay, we can't pay, no worries, we'll just pocket the money. No, no, no, no, no, no. There's going to be massive knock-on consequences. It seems that the governments, the central banks, the powers that be don't understand the huge consequences of the actions that they take. 'Oh yeah, we'll just lock everyone down, we don't worry about the consequences.' Oh yeah, we'll just impose sanctions all across the world, don't worry about the consequences. Oh yeah, we'll spend hundreds of billions on war, don't worry about the consequences. We'll spend tens of billions on track and trace apps and PPE equipment and loans and— I won't even say the V word— don't worry about the consequences. What I believe the consequences will be will be a global recession or depression, could last many years, the continued debasement and devaluation of money, the huge increase in inflation and cost of living. And here's the thing, unfortunately the poor and the working class are going to get hurt the most. They're always the bloody victims. So in order to not just survive but thrive, you need to be financially free, financially independent, financially responsible. You need to learn, earn, and invest.

That's all it is. Um, yeah, my daughter starts in a minute, so I better go. So quick summary then. Um, Russia about to default on about, uh, $100 million worth of interest on loans. Here's the thing though, they can afford to pay and they're ready to pay it, but the sanctions have stopped them from paying it. I believe that will create a massive knock-on consequence. I wonder if those repayments of debt should be accepted. I don't see why they shouldn't. I get that some financial restrictions on Russia might help, um, slow the and stop the war, and I like financial sanctions better than guns and tanks and planes being sent in. But is it really wise to stoke the bear and to, um, force Russia to default on debt that they haven't for nearly 40 years? I don't know about that. Let me know what you think in the comments. Hit the share button because we've all got to speak out on this stuff. This stuff is really important. Some people say to me, Rob, why are you talking about Russia and Ukraine? You know, why are you talking about freedom of speech when, when I'm an entrepreneur? Because if we move into World War III and we're all controlled and manipulated and don't have freedom of speech, then the world is fucked. And by the way, we put all these people into government and power, so we need to hold them accountable and responsible. So you can do your bit by sharing this video.
