Friday Thoughts From Holly
Good morning roomies!
“Promise me you’ll always remember: You’re braver than you believe and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” – A. A. Milne
Sometimes it’s difficult to be brave and strong everyday. Sometimes it’s a struggle to keep going. But no matter we must continue. We have no choice as life will happen with or without us. So be strong, be brave and carry on.
We did not have the start as was anticipated in March. Happy April 1st! Some say on the real calendar today is the real New Years Day. Where are we:
1. All banks had till midnight last night to be compliant or they were done.
2. All paymasters and administrative accounts are ready and funded.
3. What’s being told is the release should go next week.
Have a great weekend. I will take the weekend off. If something happens I will let you know.
Be well, be safe, be kind. Above all else, be kind. Let peace and kindness begin with you. -Holly

Thurs. 31 March was the last day of the Federal Reserve, the last day for business of any banks not Basel Three compliant, gold-backed Ruble payments for gas had to be worked out by Thurs. 31 March, plus as of that 31 March the Petro Dollar would have run it’s course and all nations would go back to their own currencies vs trading in the fiat US Dollar.

Clare Article: "The Iraqi government reduces the official working hours during the month of Ramadan". IN PRINT...THEY STILL WORK DURING RAMADAN. imo
Militiaman ...The CBI could do as they have in the past, change the rate when they are ready. They have the FM [Finance Minister ?] on board, they even have the politicians all on board based off many articles on the matter. So, it is not like there is going to be any 'hold on a minute.. I didn't want purchasing power... You can't change the rate until all of us politicians sit in our respective seats.' lol...Security and stability and the settlement of differences has been sorted and has played out too. All imo a very good time we are in.

Gold’s Investment Case Has Fundamentally Changed, And Rising Yields Are No Longer A Dealbreaker - FTSE Russell’s De

Why Is the U.S. Dollar the World's Dominant Reserve Currency?
September 01, 2026 By Scott A. Wolla
What do you think of when you hear “U.S. dollar”? Is it the cash in your wallet, the balance in your bank account, or the price of a gallon of gas? In these and other examples, the dollar performs the basic functions of money. This is true in the U.S. and in countries around the world, whose governments, central banks, businesses, and investors use dollars to buy, sell, borrow, and lend. The dollar is integral to the financial “plumbing” of the global economy and is the world’s dominant reserve currency.

Iraq/Iran War, Global Currency Reset Update: Holly Celiano
Nicholas Veniamin: 9-21-2026
The global financial landscape is undergoing a profound and highly coordinated transformation. As nations seek to move away from legacy monetary frameworks, a complex web of geopolitical negotiations, economic positioning, and structural reforms is taking shape.

Bill Holter: Fiat to Fail, US$180,000 Gold Will Look "Laughably Low"
Investing news: 9-21-2026
Bill Holter of BillHolter.com believes gold's next leg higher has already begun, and its ultimate catalyst is the financial markets themselves. "I think price wise, we're early, Time wise, I don't think there's a lot of time left before we see the implosion of fiats.
The inverse of that is an explosion of prices of everything down to a stick of gum or a cup of coffee," he said. Holter also explains how a gold price of US$180,000 per ounce could be "laughably low" in the long term.
