About this listen

This classic expose of the Fed has become one of the best-selling books in its category of all time. Where does money come from? Where does it go? Who makes it? The money magician's secrets are unveiled. Here is a close look at their mirrors and smoke machines, the pulleys, cogs, and wheels that create the grand illusion called money. A boring subject? Just wait. You'll be hooked in five minutes. It reads like a detective story - which it really is, but it's all true.

This book is about the most blatant scam of history. It's all here: the cause of wars, boom-bust cycles, inflation, depression, prosperity. Your world view will definitely change. Putting it quite simply, this may be the most important book on world affairs you will ever read.

The 5th Edition includes a no-holds barred analysis of bank bailouts under the Bush and Obama Administrations that are shown to be nothing less than legalized plunder of the American people. Many other updates have been added, including a revision to the list of those who attended the historic meeting at Jekyll Island, where the Federal Reserve was created.

I went on Wikipedia and apparently Mr.Griffin is a "conspiracy theorist". This makes him sound like a tin foil hat wearing nutter, as no boubt it was meant to. The usual 'nothing to see here move along' tactic. Far from being a nutter he stikes me as a rational man, putting forward a well reasearched reading of historical and current events. I'm not trained in economics and therefore had to listen repeatedly to certain sections, in part to understand what was meant but also to get over the shock! The assertion 'money isn't real' comes to mind. I wish I had read this book when I was young, I find it makes it easier on my mental health; knowing that there are reasons, no matter how evil, for the state of the world rather than attributing it to a kind of free floating madness. Thank you Mr.Griffin, you are a star.

This book is an excellent narrative on how the banking system of most if not all countries with a central bank work. How they are and eventually errode all liberty from people due to the immense power awarded to them by governments. All is not lost however.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book about the Federal Reserve’s creation and the darkness and corruption that surrounds it. Well written, with a good flow.

An excellent telling of how America functions behind the scenes.

Eye opening narrative about the state of our banking system. Intuitively, I knew there was something awry. This sets out what it is.

Hits the nail square on the head
