Simon,
I’m writing a book and wanted your opinion on Mathematically Perfected Economy….I know you’ve met Mike Montagne…what was your final wrap on the whole concept….

What’s up, I read your blogs regularly. Your story-telling style is awesome, keep it
up!
Hello Simon,
I’m very impressed with all your presentations and work. I am an economist student which is very passionate about the subject matter(money reform), and Islamic banking. I believe that its everybody’s responsibility to understand what’s going on with our current banking system and how banks function as a cancer in economies; growing debt and inequality endlessly, causing crisis’s, and making them even worse afterwards. Perhaps you would agree that eliminating the concept of interest or the use of usury all together would be one of the features of an optimal “sustainable economy”.. I’m not suggesting doing so right away off course, but wouldn’t you agree that we need to be heading in that direction?
I really wish you all the best in what you are doing and hope that “bank to the future” keeps on growing and hopefully become part of it someday in the future.
best regards.

First the rfeomr I propose is not really mine, is comes from reading the entire history of monetary thought. I simply promote this school of thought.
Capitalism will never be perfect we can only hope for the best system measured by freedom.
There will always be people that value money more highly than others and work harder to accumulate it, but if you sort out the flaws of fractional reserve banking, this will be more of a choice than it is today.
There will be further reforms after this, this is just my mission to put stability back into finance and money.
The rules need changing, and they will need further changes after too.
Hope this helps.

Hi Simon,
the Monetary Reform of yours sounds like a good idea. Money should work for its use-value. But are u sure that capitalism could work without accumulation of capital?
And besides economy, which majorities do u see in global societies that are ready for your ‘money-revolution’? The debt regime has lots to loose …
Greetings,

Hello Simon,
You say:
“…[W]hile we still live under the current financial system, under which boom and bust is inevitable, the only activity that will guarantee your income and provide a consistent return is speculation and trading.”
If big money can be made from “speculation and trading” won’t those who so benefit, will resist change to the bitter end? I. e. how can we overcome the systemic resistance to radical change?
All videos are posted on my blog and I send updates with every new video.

Nice site, Simon. I will link to you from EconomicStability.org.
You do a great job of explaining the whole monetary reform concept in an hour in the video lecture.
It was great to meet you at the AMI conference ion Chicago and I wish you (and Monetary Reform) well.

Hi there,
I have been to Simons banking and finance training seminars. They are very helpful to students in First year, 2nd year, and final year; as well as all other groups and ages. I found it very interesting and would recommend anyone to go to it if they are looking to go into a career in trading.
