Washington Wants Control Over Your Money. Here’s How to Opt Out.

The Federal Reserve has printed $4.8 trillion in the past three years. Your savings account pays 0.5% while inflation runs at 8%. The math doesn’t work in your favor.

A small group of Americans has discovered a way to completely bypass the traditional banking system. They’re using decentralized finance to become their own banks, collecting the same transaction fees that JPMorgan and Citigroup earn: 12-20% monthly returns, regardless of whether markets go up or down.

Tan Gera, a former Wall Street investment banker, now teaches this strategy through Decentralized Masters. Over 3,000 people have positioned their wealth outside government reach.

No permission needed. No middleman. Just complete financial autonomy. 

While everyone else is asking the government for permission, you can start becoming your own bank today.

Government shutdown enters week 5 (your 401k at risk)

The government shutdown is now in its fifth week with no end in sight. Trump vows “irreversible” cuts while banks sit on $500 billion in losses, and the national debt surpasses $37 trillion. Interest payments now exceed Defense spending, and 71 banks remain on the failure watch list.

They’re playing chicken with YOUR retirement as the system cracks.

Meanwhile, an executive order just opened your 401k to private-equity vultures: high fees, zero liquidity, 7–10-year lockups. The IRS can levy retirement accounts, FinCEN tracks $600+ transactions, and banks can freeze assets without a court order.

Smart Americans are moving wealth outside government reach – into systems politicians can’t touch. It’s called becoming your own bank. Plus, this system potentially pays 30–400% annually.
