Actually it's more like day-dreaming; but it seems like a good idea.
Right now, I don't know where the money for such an endeavor would come from. I think we'll be able to get loans for almost any purpose when it is obvious that quantitative easing isn't working. There is talk about "helicopter money". That is just money that is loaned out for almost any purpose.
They'll probably use it to build roads and such; but maybe I could get some as well.
It's worth a shot. Maybe I can make some money at that and take that money and go prospect for gold.
I had an application for an IT job today. I didn't fill it out because I felt that my qualifications weren't up to the job. For someone with no college degree they wanted 8 years of experience. I just forgot about it.
I got water on my good laptop, yesterday. I spilled about half a glass of water on the keyboard. I tried drying it out by leaving it upside down for a day and leaving it in a dry room. It's going to take more of a fix than that. The space key, the enter key and the shift keys aren't working.
Tomorrow, I'll take it apart and find a fan or heat gun to put on it. I don't think I have a heat gun. It may be beyond repair. I'm afraid I may have damaged a chip on the motherboard. The keyboard itself would be pretty hard to really damage but it goes to the motherboard which would be easy to destroy.
Silver went crazy today. There were 2 or 3 swings of over 60 cents each. CNBC tried to blame moves in the dollar for silver's move but the dollar never moves that much. Maybe there will be a better explanation tomorrow.
That's all I have for now.

What I'm Up to Lately.
I haven't blogged for a while.
I'm still looking for my missing Bitcoins.
I found an account of someone named Lazslo who sold thousands of Bitcoins in 2010. Of course, I'm writing myself into that scenario since there is so much money to be made if I did buy Bitcoins that early. I sent him a letter to see if he remembers me.
So far, I haven't had a reply. I'm probably just being schizophrenic when I think about any of this stuff.
I need to find a job and pay off some of my debts. This being off into my dream world doesn't pay any of my bills. It's not too hopeful.
I finally got my bicycle out and pumped up the tires. I got tired just riding it to Java Johns; it's probably only three blocks from my home. I think I'll just leave the van at home and ride the bike.
I forgot that there is an auction involving coins, tonight.

I Started my Business
I started my business of installing Linux and working with Bitcoin, today.
I went to the Chamber of Commerce to see if I need a business license.
I also printed up a few business cards. I'll see if I can get signs made for the van. I already priced it; it will cost around $250 for a couple of magnetic signs.
I'm using the image of the Linux penguin along with my phone number.
All it cost for the business cards was a little more than $5.00 for the card paper. It went right through my printer with no troubles. I had to use my scissors to cut them and they didn't come out perfectly, but it was good enough for me.
I've been meaning to get this off the ground for a couple of years, now; and it feels good to be making headway on it.
On other news, the Brexit hasn't destroyed the world's stock markets as was feared. In fact, I think it was a good thing. The precious metals went up strongly but they seem to be settling down, now.
Maybe they'll do the right thing and raise interest rates but I doubt it. It would bankrupt the government to actually pay interest on it's debt. Therefore they will probably run the currency into a hole in the ground before raising rates.
That's just my opinion.
The end of the financial world seems to be taking a lot longer than I thought it would. I hope it lasts a couple of more years so I can get my preparations in order.
That's all I have for tonight.
I'm sorry that I haven't been blogging more but my schizophrenia has been acting up since I'm trying to cut back on my medications. It's against my religion to be taking any medications but I feel that I need it.

Brexit and Such
I haven't written anything in my blog for over a week; so it's time.
I stayed up late Thursday night to watch the vote returns in England for the Brexit. I was shocked that Brexit won.
I figured that it would be fixed and therefor there was no way it would win.
I'm glad for the English people. This might portend the breakup of the European Union and maybe even NATO.
Maybe it will be like the breakup of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact. hope so, because it turned out that America is as totalitarian as Russia was when it ran the Soviet Union. We're constantly getting involved in wars and basically bossing people around.
So far, I've lost $250 by betting on crypto currencies. I don't know how I could lose but I did.
Monday, I'm going to apply for a job as a computer repair man. I need the money.
I haven't been able to sell the motor home or the etchings. I'm running low on funds and I have to do something.
I went to a hypnotist last week to help me find my Bitcoins. It didn't work.
I couldn't get into a deep enough of a hypnotic state to put myself into my old apartment where I misplaced my bitcoins.
The way I see it I could just a well teleport and time-travel back to 2010 and bring back that number on my own.
It seems to me that if I get to a state where I see myself back in 2010, why not simply go back there and do what I need to do.
I used to time-travel quite a bit; but I'm taking medication for those beliefs, now. I just have to give myself permission to go back there and get that number.
I think I'll dig up Richard Bach's book (Illusions) and go back in time and find that number. At least that's what I'm going to try.

Well, I did it and I'm up $100
I borrowed $2,000 and put it in Bitcoins and Ethereum coins. I'm already up about $100.
It would be more but I accidentally locked up most of my money in Bitcoins. Bitcoins went up as well so I'm still doing well.
I'm glad I didn't buy any more gold and silver since that is being manipulated down. It has something to do with shooting a politician in England and halting the Brexit vote. That helped stocks and drove metals down. I don't think that will last.
My hypnotist canceled my appointment yesterday. He has car troubles and his car is hundreds of miles away from him. I rescheduled it for next week. I hope it goes well. I'm getting too old to be shoveling snow this Winter.
I need to make some money without a lot of manual labor.
The keyboard on this laptop is giving me fits. Last week the "o" key would stick; now it's the "b" key.
Maybe I should replace it. I think I've got some keyboards that would work.

So, should I do it Again
Einstein's definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
That's the way I am with commodities and options. I don't know how much I've lost betting on commodities and options.
I'm tempted to do it again. Silver and Bitcoins are going through the roof. I expect both to continue to rise and I would like to profit from it.
I could borrow $3500 from a flakey, high interest loan company.
As long as I keep doubling my money on a monthly basis, I would come out ahead.
I think I'll do it with Bitcoins. I can use leverage to buy more coins and I feel that it is more certain than silver.
Of course, I've chased (pie in the sky) schemes before. Always with disastrous results. If any of them would have worked I would be rich right now.
Nothing ever seems to work because the criminal cartel that runs things always rigs the markets that I am playing in.
That's one of the reasons I don't think I'll play silver. That market is rigged. Deutsche bank admitted to rigging it; so why wouldn't someone else rig it?
When you get down to it; everything is rigged. We live in a totally corrupt society. Every market is rigged and only the upper 1% can hope to make any money, playing their game.
I think I'll try, anyway.

Not much is Happening, Lately
I'm at Java John's; listening to a cello player. He's really rocking out.
I was going to watch some of my favorite gloom and doomers on Youtube; but the music is too good to ignore, tonight.
Not much is going on in my life. I might get the motor home sold next week. One guy wants to give me $750 for it if it runs. Another guy might give me $500 as is. I hope to get it moved next week.
I'm going to a hypnotist next Wednesday. I still hope to find my Bitcoins. I'm tired of working and being poor as well. It's time that some good things happen to me.
I gave away a computer to the guy who wants to buy my motor home. I've still got 3 more working and one I'm waiting for parts.
I bought another (parts machine). I hope that I can't get it running because I'm tired of accumulating computers and needing parts for another one. I've got to get out of the computer repair hobby.
I end up putting $50 or more into each machine and then I give them away because there is no market for old laptops. It's a bad habit like drinking or something.
Well, that's all that I have for now.
