Even with UK 30 year gilt yields at 6 per cent, it's not too late to take action. There is no way out of the approaching sovereign debt crisis other than through creating vast sums of new money to pay the interest. This serves two purposes - it provides cash actually to service the debt, and it creates massive and ongoing inflation via an increase of the money supply and debasement of the currency through a destruction of its purchasing power. Effectively, the debt is both 'inflated away' and also serviced by the same destructive solution. Although I have to say this is not financial advice, you do not want to be sitting in cash when this happens. One of Bitcoin's many functions is as a hedge against sovereign debt crisis, and a hedge against national currency debasement. Unlike any other currency, it cannot be inflated or arbitrarily created by a nation state or by a bank. Unlike all other monies apart from gold and silver, it is not a 'liability' money nor a payment obligation from one party to another. It simply is. This function is one of the reasons why I do what I do, and have done for such a long time. Like many others, I want as many people to get to the lifeboats in time. The lifeboats remain available for those who choose to look. Good hunting.
