[00:00:00]Did you know that in 1994, Yugoslavia's money became so worthless that workers had to be paid twice a day because their wages lost half their value by lunch? This wasn't just bad economics. This was monetary warfare.

[00:00:14]Slobodan Milosevic printed dinars to fund ethnic cleansing campaigns, creating 313 million percent inflation annually. New currency was issued every few months because the old ones became toilet paper, literally. Citizens stopped using money entirely. Cigarettes became the real currency. Gas stations became banks. People carried Deutschmarks in their socks because the official currency died faster than they could spend it. Here's what smart families [music] did. They moved wealth into hard assets immediately. Real estate, precious metals, foreign currency accounts. The families who survived weren't the ones hoping government would fix things. They were the ones who understood that when politicians control the printing press, your savings [music] become their weapon. Today, with central bank digital currencies on the horizon and unprecedented money printing globally, the question isn't if this could happen elsewhere, it's when.
