We are living in the greatest period in human history, a period of massive technological

and economic advancement.

Never in our history have we been so close to a world where we can live truly free and

independent lives.

But here's the thing, there are those with money, power and influence who would rather see

you dependent on them and the system they created, a system designed to keep you comfortable,

apathetic and distracted.

We believe the road to true independence doesn't come through political elections or senseless

regulation, but rather in maximizing the empowerment of the individual.

If you feel the same way they get ready, my name is Jason Stapleton.

Welcome to Wealth, Power and Influence.

Well, good morning everybody, good afternoon to some of you, depending on where you are

in this, in your part of the world.

I am on the west coast here, so it's about 10, it was supposed about 10.15 now, we're supposed

to get started about 15 minutes ago, but Matt and I decided we needed to figure out how

to pronounce some guy, the guy's name, we're going to have the show, and it was, it was

not good.

And so, also, I've been up since, I don't know why I always bring this up, but I just,

I always worry that I'm going to be off my game when we do the show, and so I need to

let everybody in that I woke up at 2.30 this morning and couldn't fall back asleep.

I have for some reason, there are birds in the tree outside my window that don't ever

sleep.
