Slimy, unethical lawyers call it “playing the lawsuit lottery,” and they file a blizzard of lawsuits (frivolous or not) in hopes that one sticks and they strike it rich.
See, they know that 95% of lawsuits get settled out of court, and at almost the same value they were seeking in the suit.
Plus, settlements historically favor the plaintiff, so a lawyer is happy to file the paperwork, then sit back and collect their fees on the settlement.
And, I probably don’t need to tell you about how many ways the government is trying to pick your pocket.
They’re always snooping around your finances looking for ways to rip more tax dollars out of you.
Sure, depending on the election cycle, you may get a breather…
But, the state-sponsored money grab is guaranteed to kick into high gear again sooner rather than later.
And if all that isn’t bad enough, here’s a question you may not have thought of that could have a disastrous impact on your financial situation:
What happens when your ID is lost in an emergency or natural disaster?
Well, ask my friend Greg, who had his house burn down two years ago and lost everything.
Ask him about the nightmare he went through to prove who he was (he didn’t have ID)…
Or the hours he spent getting new documents such as birth certificates.
An article in USA Today with the headline, “Katrina Victims Face Identity Crisis” gives a hint at some of the troubles you’ll face:
The article stated…
“Katrina washed away their homes, their personal belongings, and their livelihoods. It may have washed away their identities, too.
Birth certificates, marriage licenses, even drivers licenses, personal checks and credit cards were washed away in the storm. Without the usual means of identifying themselves, evacuees face another major obstacle to normalcy.”
And, a local newspaper in Texas – The Beaumont Enterprise – said of the recent flooding in Houston, “Replacing ID, documents lost in Harvey can be long process.”
My point is, since the world we live in is so unpredictable, you don’t only need a regular bug out bag…
You absolutely must have a Financial Bug Out Bag so that if something does happen, you can weather the storm and stay financially secure.
(And not have your family end up in some FEMA camp because you can’t prove your identity and get a real place.)
The good news is, putting together your financial bug out bag is easy and I’m going to tell you how to do it right now…
