Right.  But is that hours or the year 2024?  This morning we consider the structural problem of “quantum futuring” and ponder our simplistic views of probability over time contained in our language and thinking styles..

We don’t propose any novel new ways to approach such profound Truths – as what lays ahead for the upright apes.

However, what we can do is begin to sketch out an approach to the problem which is likely to pay off well down the road a bit.

Because despite mathematics and music, we have an supra problem with Future because we haven’t cleared the land between lies and probabilities…

After the Wars Check and the ChartPack, of course.

Our Merry Christmas present for you is a list.  Of more than 30 distinct protocols and lifestyle actions that may extend your Life.

This list will be made public on the UrbanSurvival.com website on Monday prior to my Monday night appearance on Coast-to-Coast AM with George Noory.

But since subscribers go to the “front on the line” we wanted them to have “the List” ahead of time.

None of this is to be taken as medical advice.  Rather, please use this as a list of “starting points” for your own research into anti-aging.

And of course, we will also wrap up the ChartPack for the week and slather on some headlines to go with the Christmas turkey gravy…

You do know the “worst of times” is when you might actually have time for a big project, right?

With the problems in the economy unfolding in the wake of last week’s Fed decision; and with more financial concerns about the period ahead, we step out of our usual “let’s make some money” reports to make sure you have the thinking tools to help get your own roof over your head.

Oh, sure, we will do the stock market outlook and charts as always (and they have been really prescient lately).  And we will look at the daily load of headlines.

But if you ever want to build your own home or get an idea what a person really has in a home on the materials side, listen up Bunkie.  Like the Bud commercials say “This one’s for you…”

If you are young and presently rent, this may open up some new vistas of thought for you.  How achievable our numbers are will depend on where you live.

In our rural Texas county, there is not even a Building or Health Department.  So, it follows, there’s no building permit needed.  We pick up our hammers and saw.

In other areas of the country, especially those whose growth has been high, but has leveled off, bureaucracies need a reason to exist.  The mere act of buying a couple of hunks of sheetrock can be an issue.  Seriously!  I went through this in California, 20-some years back.  (You don’t have to answer anyone’s questions in a hardware store!)

While we generally like building departments that are well run (the plans desk is one of the best places on earth to get sound building advice), not everyone is your friend.  The matter of power and politics cannot be trivialized. Don’t even bring up Zoning.

Government concerns are mainly predicated on America’s history of massive residential and commercial building fires (Great Chicago, the Seattle Fire, just about every city has one when you dig into it).  In order to “save the public from itself” taxes are raised, fees applied, and inspectors hired… Wet seals on plans weasel into the mix as the word gets out. Everyone has their hand out (for money) when comes to this business of becoming King of your own Castle. Double-especially if you DIY it.

It’s the American way. Ewe copy?

Is there a Black Monday, or Tuesday, in our future?  Today, we not only do the “usual” Saturday ChartPack for subscribers, but we also leap the high board at the deep end.  Jumping into the mathematical structure of Universe.

Which, curiously, wandered by in one of my grand adventure dreams in the Dream Realms overnight.

We will also drop by the “frozen follies of fighting for finances” (Ukraine war) and the “misery of manufacturing mass monetizations” (China) plus the usual absurdity of the times.

In short, some wonder-widening writing that neuron neutered numbnuts will negate.

We serve the hasty punning after a few headlines.

All so that we can begin questioning how Radiative Reality works.

Several events have reminded me recently to “write up a useable guide to reliability.”  Because, with the world quickly going to hell in a Fed basket, we not only need to plan for contingencies, but contingencies on top of those!

Which is why – with the Fed announcement some six hours from now (as I write this) we will have a chance to try out our “combinatorial contingency skills” in real-life trading conditions.

We will avoid too much mathematical jargon, but a simple table and some first-hand examples will be useful to study, we’re thinking.

First, however, let’s see how the Happy Talk Choir performance is holding up as we roll through our Aggregate Index view of things.

That’s an index that combines many indices into one (assuming equal dollar weighting in each) in order to see the “real” truth about money as opposed to the widely repeated (and often wrong-headed) views.

Even before this, we will get into how SBF sent $1-million to a Texas democrat before his financial shenanigans came to light…

Feeling a bit compulsive, are we?  You bet. We are in “field position” (to toss in some sports book lingo) to really drop – and hard – before whatever the Fed decision is coming Wednesday afternoon.

One thing the charts are telling us?  I won’t say it – better that you should see for yourself.

But not without a break to look over our left shoulder first.  Because we’re on ultra-high alert for “Left Field Events” this weekend.  Our highest alert level of the year, so far.

Our usual Peoplenomics fare is a hardnosed look at data involving cyclicity in long-term market directions.  However, have you noticed that the Markets of late look like they may be taking our call of a massive third wave down collapse very much to heart? America is entering a “beliefs and values” crisis.

Today we discuss and odd bit of evidence, from outside the crooked worlds of politics and finance, which puts a new slant on  what’s really going on.  The behind the scene motivator is a huge change in everyday people’s values and beliefs.  When these change, the world changes.

One of our sources is a doctor and hospital administrator who has shared with us some data just collected.  The data is shocking and, frankly, scares the hell out of us.

We will delve into it after headlines and the ChartPack.  Not going to be in the least big “preachy” – but a war on “human spirit” is now seen in data.

What’s worrying? The data is also lining up with long wave cycles here, the Nostradamus work (over on G.A. Stewart’s site), and a few other regional outposts of sanity that remain on the compromised web.

What’s emerging is a world of spiritual warfare, where not only are “nukes in the wings” but my consigliere’s “collapse of NATO around year-end, and Stu’s “Collapse of the House of Seven” analysis have just locked.

Spiritual warfare is in play, now.

Remember the Talking Heads song “Lifetime Piling Up“?  Well, what’s going on now is a kind of rhyming riff off that. When long-denied social media fairytales turn out to be true.

We expect a growing sense of confusion and uncertainty into year-end.  Because stock prices no longer relate to growth, crypto gambles are turning into a bad “Survivor” episode.  And stupid Europe is trying to price-limit Russian oil prices at almost $20 a barrel less than Friday’s Western trading.

Are they kidding?

We will zoom in on what MAY be next in our ChartPack section, but this morning, simply arranging the major news headlines of the day reads almost like a, well, Peoplenomics report!

Shall we?

Every year, we take a fearless poke at the future and explain our basis for ‘Life Planning’ for the coming year.  The process is never simple, though.  Something as complicated as one’s Life and as intricate as a global economy is more than a 5-minute essay!

Today, we kick around some of the data sourcing ideas and suggest an “indexing” method, which echoes of our Aggregate Index approach to things.

After a few headlines and the ADP numbers just rolling to be followed by our ChartPack.

Spoiler alert:  We think a huge entity to track in 2023 will be AmeriCorps.gov which is all laid out to reprise the role of the Civilian Conservation Corps in the depths of the previous Depression.

And we’ll explain where we think the Fed went wrong on its mechanistic handling of inflation.

We’re almost to our Annual Outlook report.  As part of the process we employ a number of “thinking tools” and ways of looking into the future that anyone can use.

The future, understand, is all about perceptual domains.  Not everyday stuff, certainly, but with the pressure off for another couple of days, it’s always good to kick back, try on some new mental finery and be better equipped for whatever comes next.

The further reason to do this becomes evident after a few headlines and the morning’s ChartPack.

This being a semi-vacation week, we’re keeping on point with breaking economic news.  Since people are moving around the country in huge numbers (55+ million) for Thanksgiving tomorrow.

Our consigliere had an earlier-than-expected arrival due to “dueling Garmin’s.”  Yep – sitting in the driveway here, one routes his return via Athens, Texas while the other one heads through Frankston and via Tyler, Texas.

One of the many problems of software are instances like this of “digital inconsistencies. “

 Which doesn’t matter much at one level (both units would have gotten him here – or home for that matter).

But, as extensible thinking intrudes, we wonder what the implications are for A.I. down the road?  Schizoputera? Dueling AA.I.’s with humans in the squeeze?

We kick off with a couple of news releases just out and then review the ChartPack which is pretty darned interesting.

Disaster at the docks is our urgent concern because “me-too financial media” doesn’t have Clue #1 about economics. While the government offers lots of “Offishul figgers” we like to run parallel private indicators.  So this morning, a quick glance over in that direction as we spool up toward holiday madness.

With less than a week to the “real” Black Friday, a look at retailing and some thoughts on how to sensibly spend are in order, too.

But not before a few headlines and our ChartPack…

Since both of our reports next week will deal with charts only (holiday), I wanted to share some research that you’ll find very interesting. 

It’s all arisen out of my latest novel (about 50-pages into the writing part – but life intrudes – often!) “Ancient Children” is its title.

The plot involves an exceptional aging couple who – for reasons that vex a Social Security fraud investigator.  Because the hero and heroine in the book look upwards of 50-years younger than they should look by modern standards.

While working out the plot line, it struck me that I’d never seen a really good list of all the ways people can (but only if it’s turned into a personal discipline with a series of habits) turn extreme anti-aging into a reality.

As a result, since many people find themselves with a little “extra time on their hands” around the holidays, there’s enough concept and application detail in this morning’s report to comprise a very useful “getting started” approach to PLE – Personal Life Extension –  research..

Yes.  If you hadn’t figured it, Elaine and I are already well past the “fixing to get ready” part of this.  Our daily routines are loosely based on following the concepts we’ll outline today.

Along with the headlines and ChartPack, of course!

Spoiler Alert: We review more than 30 techniques and ideas!  This is a two-cupper…
