Sound Money—Your Trust’s Shield Against Fiat Collapse (Part 4)
Leviticus 19:35-36 commands, “You shall do no wrong in judgment, in measures… you shall have just balances, just weights.” Fiat’s a crooked scale—its value shifts with every printer’s whir
You’ve set up your trust—your assets are locked in, your Trustee’s ready, your family’s future is secure. But what’s inside that trust? If it’s just fiat dollars, you’re building on sand. Inflation’s a thief—3% in 2024, probably climbing in 2025—and it’s stealing your sovereignty every year. Enter sound money: gold, silver, Bitcoin. These aren’t just alternatives; they’re your trust’s shield against a collapsing system. Let’s break down why, and how they fit into God’s design.
Fiat money—dollars, euros, whatever—is a promise from governments that love to print more. The U.S. money supply jumped 25% from 2020-2022, and prices followed. Your $1,000 savings buys less groceries everyday—by 2030, it might be half its worth. Sound money fights back. Gold? It’s held value for 5,000 years—$2,800 an ounce today, steady through chaos. Silver? Cheaper at $30 an ounce, but a proven hedge—up 20% in 2024 alone. Bitcoin? Born in 2009, it’s hit $80,000 by 2025—scarce, decentralized, yours. These don’t bend to central banks or inflation’s grind.
Put them in your trust, and you’re not just hiding wealth—you’re growing it. Gold and silver can sit in a safe or vault, titled to the trust. Bitcoin’s private keys transfer to a secure wallet your Trustee controls. Your kids inherit value, not paper promises. Inflation’s 3% bite? Gold shrugs it off. Government grabs? Bitcoin’s code laughs. This is sovereignty in action—your wealth, your rules, beyond their reach.
God knew this too. Leviticus 19:35-36 commands, “You shall do no wrong in judgment, in measures… you shall have just balances, just weights.” Fiat’s a crooked scale—its value shifts with every printer’s whir. Gold, silver, Bitcoin? They’re honest weights—fixed, fair, enduring. When Israel left Egypt, they carried silver and gold (Exodus 12:35)—sound money for a new start. Your trust can do the same: carry real value into the future.
Sure, it’s work. Gold needs storage—$50/year for a safe deposit box. Silver’s bulkier—maybe $200 for a vault. Bitcoin demands security—cold wallets cost $60-$150, plus backups. But compare that to fiat’s bleed: $30,000 lost on a $1M trust in a decade at 3% inflation. Sound money pays for itself.
Your Trustee’s job? Keep it safe, track it right—Numbers-style accounting—and pass it on. Next time, we’ll tie it all together: trusts, sound money, and living sovereign. For now, ask: What’s in your trust? Paper, or power?
