First of all, that still doesn't account for them losing 97.5% of their assets. You can't even buy a house in most places for $250K anymore.

Second of all, wonderful, assume they buy a few houses in the Ghetto, or some gold/silver. Now what? How do they LIVE while the financial system collapses?

How do they buy anything to live? Basic necessities? All of their capital is in illiquid real assts, so how do they fund their continued existence? And if they're going to try and keep massive amounts of physical cash on hand, then that's just painting a target on their back for everyone to rob so they can feed their families.

I'm not saying Silicon Valley isn't a house of cards, that much is obvious. I'm saying that there's no way to make a rug pull out of this where the cabal stooges and Billionaires/MIllionaires get all their money and the rest of us get left holding the empty bag.

Everyone involved will lose, that's the point. It's the "Great Reset" for a reason. Or at least they want it to be.

Honestly, I don't see this being as spectacular as everyone seems to think it will be. It probably won't be a full financial collapse, as there ARE moderately safe places to put money. Credit Unions, Savings and Loan Associations, etc.

Places that are far more localized and heavily regulated. Saving and Loans Associations in particular are probably the safest institutions at the moment since they more or less are forbidden from partaking in the fractional banking system.

They have to have their deposits on hand at all times unless loaned out, and they're only allowed to make loans to bank members, and even then 80% or their loans are required to be mortgaes while no more than 20% can be personal loans (Credit lines, regular loans, Auto loans, etc.) thus most of them usually just keep around 50%~ of their deposits on hand and loan out the other 50 split between 90-10 with mortgages and personal loans for their members.

Credit unions, likewise are pretty safe too since they're owned by their members and similarly aren't allowed to lend or invest the money outside of approved investments in Bonds, real estate, etc. And they also have similar requirements for liquid capital on hand since they typically aren't as involved in the fractional banking system as commercial banks.

If neither are available, a local bank that isn't part of a larger system will minimize losses. You MAY get hit if the whole system collapses, but you'll be safer than going with a big Wall Street bank.

Basically, it's not going to be a total collapse. The only people in real danger are the massive overleveraged commercial banks who have been cabal entities for decades anyway. If you stick with local/regional financial institutions, then the danger and risk is gradually reduced the more localized and client oriented you get.

It's one person, per bank. So all of your accounts combined at every bank you deal with is covered up to $250K (or $500K if you're married, but that's still $250K per person).

Meaning if you have a savings account, a checking account, a money market account, and a CD account at a single bank, all of them have a combined insurance of $250K ($500K for married couples).

There are ways to extend this by using services that split up your money between banks and credit unions across the country so that each bank has no more than $250K in it, while you can access the full amount from your designated home bank. But the insurance coverage doesn't change, and there's a limited number of banks in the US.

Quick search says that there are currently 4,746 commercial banks in the US. At $250K a piece the maximum conceivable coverage a person could achieve is $1,186,500,000, which is enough to cover 103 people using OP's numbers for how much cash the FDIC has on hand. And that's having it split evenly, which we all know would never happen.

People like Gates, and Bezos are gonna get a bigger chunk of the pie (assuming they get any), and that's not even getting into the shadowy overlords pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Besides this, most billionaires don't have this much cash lying on hand anyhow. The majority of ultrawealthy people have almost their entire fortune tied up in the stock market.

In the grand scheme of things, Real Estate, Precious metals, etc. are not the favored investment of the ultra wealthy. They don't deliver explosive returns over a short period of time and there's very few (if any) ways to manipulate their value or price by using elaborate schemes.

The complete opposite is true of stocks and equities, where it's so easy to manipulate values, that it's basically child's play.

There's a reason most cabal stooges are tech bros or stock market manipulators, while most "good billionaires" (Like Trump), are heavily invested in actual real asstes. There's also a reason why they're that people who earned their fortune honestly (again Trump), are generally 20-30 years older than cabal stooge billionaires. Because it takes longer to build things when you don't have the cabal backing you up.

EDIT: I feel I should also point out that "Maximum possible coverage" isn't really feasible either, since not all 4,746 banks in the united states participate in in these account splitting services, nor is it realistic sicne most ultra wealthy will have large accounts at private wealth banks and commerical banks due to their resources and investment programs. Take JP Morgan, they require a minimum investment of $10 Million to be a client in their private banking services. So that's at least $10 Million that can't be split between other banks for FDIC insurance. And most clients will have MUCH more than the minimum investment held in their accounts.

There's a reason that all these wallstreet banks have ridiculously high assets on their sheets. It's because all the cabal billionaire wealth is concentrated in like, 100 banks and investment firms in the country. They rarely, if ever, venture out into smaller banks, even for protection.
