Nice. Shinjuku, I wonder?

Understandable question, but nuance is needed here. He was central banker only from 1930-1933 before being "encouraged to leave". As for hyperinflation - "As Minister of Finance he helped stabilize the Mark during the hyperinflation of 1923."

The article is worth reading. The different roles and powers of central banks and ministry of finance is an important one to consider. History is a complex flow of events.

Luther's successor, Hjalmar Schacht is also quite interesting, as he helped develop the strategy for rearmament via the German central bank. Richard Werner discusses this in the first half of his book, Princes of the Yen.

I interviewed Mike Brock about Bitcoin recently - What Happens When Money Becomes Morality?

It was an interesting talk, but I lost count of the number of times he said "fascist".

Hey! It is a bit difficult to book. I had to get up early and refresh the website for a spot months in advance :(. They are very secretive and exclusive, unlike the open-source Bitcoin network.

I find something very interesting and pitiable about the young man featured in the article, a deep sense that he is looking for answers to big questions in the wrong place.

This is a common thing with "real estate people" it seems to me, whether agents or the whole buzz around the industry, something about the ownership of property does not complete a person and it is revealed in their faces and their words.
