In my humble opinion, it is smart that many of my social media friends and clients have keyed into the repeated and consistent messages from Spirit to have:
1. A skill to barter or trade with
2. Credit
3. Some precious metals Silver and/or Gold
Remember one ounce eagles are least counterfeited and generally sell for highest premiums. ratio of gold to silver is individual and one should consider portability. 500 ounces of silver is over 30 lbs and not easy to lug around should you need to get mobile quick for any number of reasons. As I’ve been saying for years “Ladies hang onto your jewelry, its value will increase substantially.”
4. Some "good" cryptos. (I like my "Purple" picks and even some others with "Green" in them too. My portfolio and almost 500 coins are reviewed in my latest Whitedove Report, a 111 page report available at michellewhitedove.com)
5. Some US Dollars outside of the banking system for now, but I of course keep my expense/bill money in my bank. Generally speaking, I prefer long standing local credit unions but do not trust banks for the most part and feel many will have challenges as you know.
6. Stocked up with a couple/few weeks of essentials. Be prepared for power outages and as if things were shut down for several weeks. I do not see the need for months and months of food/water/power. Weeks. Not something to get crazy over, everyone should have basic prep for natural or other event. Look at it like insurance. It is important. There are so many level headed approaches and so much info out there. It is not rocket science.

Note: For years, as published, my distribution of "liquid assets" was about one third good cryptos (Which I talk about extensively on my PATREON and give Coin Predictions rand Global Predictions too! ) About one third precious metals and about one third US dollars. Many thought that was silly in 2018 and 2019 and wrote saying they were all in on cryptos...not good, not me, but I cheer you on. And in hindsight spirit was right and those with "dry powder" where able to pick up discount cryptos when there was a drop.
I have changed that strategy slightly as published in my new 115 page report published in early Sept 2020 (most have it and it is still available at michellewhitedove.com.)
Since we frequently cover items 2 through 6, let's focus on you and number one "A skill to barter or trade."
Our friend asks, "going back to my discussion about trades that will be useful in the future. If Whitedove could provide more guidance there that would be great. You mentioned "fixing things" as an example but there are many different trades out there that take lifetimes in some instances to master. Just trying it find one that resonates with me and will be in particularly high demand in the future if possible."
RESPONSE: We have asked this as well, and Spirit always asks us the following to help us hone our interests:
What do you like to do?
What are you good at?
What would you like to learn?
What is there a need for? Technology? Plumbing? Electric? Carpentry? Cooking? Healing? Teaching? Managing? Organizing? Entertaining? All of it. Some things take longer to master than others, but just start where you are and do what you can. Chip away at it and before you know it you will be further along than you could have imagined. But dreaming alone is not enough. You must get off your but.
We all have certain gifts. Most don't know what theirs are. But a common clue is to look at what you are interested in. Likely if you are interested in something or are passionate about something you have some affinity for it and you have likely spent some time at it--thus you've likely developed some skill set or knowledge base.
Next, ask yourself if there is a need for the product or skill or thing that interests you most. Is there a need or niche to fill? Can you overlap what you like to do or are good at with a need? And then look at the potential scalability. Meaning, can you get it to enough people to generate a living while helping as many as you are comfortable with. Listen, we are all different and some do not want to go "global." Ambitious people always think everyone should be as ambitious as they are and take things to the next level. No. Some people are comfortable with smaller operations. We are all different. There is no one size fits all model.
For me, it is easy, in some ways. My gift of helping people is something I have been blessed with. I have spent my life honing my gift, working very hard at it and I have been willing to put myself out there, sometimes at great risk. No one has been tested on TV more under stricter controls and rules than I have. That is not an exaggeration, its fact. Why haven't others done that? Because some just aren't interested and many are afraid of failure. Some of my friends ask, "Why put yourself through these grueling tests? Why take the risk, you already have the titles and accolades?" I always answer, "To open doors for others. To stretch myself. To improve and the better I get ,the more I can help."
I love what I do, sure it comes with its downsides, but I do not focus on that. I only focus on the good. I do not pay attention to negative. In fact, many of you know when we get someone who is new to our patreon or immature or emotional or rude in Patreon, I just delete their comments. Hey, if they do not have the maturity or common sense to reach out privately when they have a challenge and instead want to spread their negative energy to all of you, no no no. I won't have it. People need to know they can not just say whatever they want in any old rude way they want to because negativity is toxic. There are ways of doing things. We all know better. Anonymity is no excuse for rudeness and I will just not have it. Thank goodness we have attracted a wonderful group here. A mature group with an understanding of common courtesy an etiquette and decorum. Civility really. THTK. Totally Honest and Totally Kind. And some conversations are just best kept private.
In short and back on topic, I am no different from you, I am good at something and there is a need for it and thus I have a trade/skill I can barter with and do from time to time. You just need to find what your gift/interest is. I promise you have one, smile. You have so much power in you.
Often I trade my time for something of perceived value. It is important to note, there are many people with natural gifts in any number of fields, but if they do not work hard to develop them and put the time in to hone their craft, others who are not as naturally gifted may end up surpassing them.
Putting in the time and work is essential. And there is a key consideration with this. I have met many people who claim to have 20 years of experience in a field. But, upon closer examination, they never stretch themselves and really they simply have one year of experience twenty times. Do you know what I mean?
Often people share they just don't know what they want to do. That is when I share with them to pick an industry they are passionate about. Go into that industry and find your best fit because within an industry there are any number of different roles and options. You have to start somewhere. I had a friend who said they always dreamed of being a concert pianist, but they did not have the chops so to speak. So instead of pursuing being a concert pianist, they instead just got into the music industry. More specifically, marketing. They love it.
Bottom line, we are all so deliciously unique. No one person any more important than any other. Each on our own journey. And remember, love is the only thing we take with us when we leave.
On a side note, if you cannot find a skill to barter, if you have something of value (cryptos, precious metals etc) that is what you can use to trade or barter with. Some people are good at amassing wealth, that is one of their skills. But the more back up plans you have, for the period of time we are in, the better.
Obvious growth industry is Technology and within that Blockchain. Maybe not as obvious, I predict growth in the "spiritual and healing" arena as well.
Wishing you great health and abundance,
In Love and Light
