The four things a man must learn to do

If he would make his record true;

To think without confusion clearly;

To love his fellow man sincerely;

To act from honest motives purely;

To trust in God and Heaven securely.

 

 

 

 

 

Kevin j Palmer is a financial industry veteran devoted to challenging economic injustices by empowering others to attain Financial Freedom. His proficiencies are rooted in decades of driving performance for Wall Street giants Merrill Lynch and Paine Webber. Then, as Managing Director at Strategic Management Advisors where partnering with other executives, he built better broker-dealers by improving business models during an industry paradigm shift. Opposing power in the hands of the too few, this writer, rebel, producer, poet exploded into advocacy to end economic abuse and assure morally achieved wealth. Humbled by blessings and aversion to seeing suffering, this unabashed champion of financial justice also participates in wildlife rescue, environmental stewardship–and as recipient of the Governors Archaeology award, is fascinated by the lives of individuals who lived thousands of years ago. By then I had my fill of traveling around the country making myopic security industry owners richer and began doing behavioral research exclusively—not to mention indulging in an old bad habit of Day Trading. Soon, as a give back, so to speak, I began advising the Governor and State Treasurer, pro bono, on how to navigate the Great Recession that we were in the middle of, by keeping businesses open and attracting new enterprises to Arizona. As it turned out I discovered that “we the people” were merely slaves to a self-serving system. My years on “The Street” taught me to understand tone of the tape and how to dull beta and enhance alpha. Working with empty suits who had escaped to government because they would have failed in the private sector, quickly resulted in my frustration. Changing course, I began using my research to write, albeit seditiously at times, about how to resist falling prey to corrupt political machinery that shackles common mankind for its own benefit

Might have died near that granite boulder on which they stepped, if not for an “Indian”, named Squanto

Most of us recall, from fourth grade, that our Pilgrim Fathers were so grateful for having safely reached their destination in 1620, they gave thanks with a noble feast. Today, we reenact that event every fourth Thursday of November, which to some is also known as the most dysfunctional family day of the year.

During this horrific, ‘er I mean, historic year of 2020, you may be traveling down the hall to the kitchen, rather than across the country but will likely navigate to a table with turkey, pies and all the dressings. Traffic slowdowns or hallway accidents aside, you will do better than the Pilgrims, who ended up nowhere near their desired destination.

Historical records show the Mayflower was destined for what is known today, as Virginia. Old sea charts show, even if it landed where plotted, their Thanksgiving dinner would have been near Staten Island’s Bayonne Bridge, which could have seriously altered history. Imagine watching Martin Scorsese’s, “Pilgrims of Wall Street” staring ye’old Leonardo DiCaprio.

Butterfly effect aside, Mayflower passages were not all stodgy prudes. Some weren’t even Pilgrims. Seemingly, a portion of passengers agreed to rules made by the “Virginia Company”, (the guys bankrolling the deal, thus hoped-for arrival location), just to hitch a free ride. All having something to do with a Royal Charter, but more on business schemes next year.

Like now, Reawakening an America Dream, (name of my latest book btw), was on everyone’s mind, especially since a population surge in England was causing great poverty. Plus, with no Charles Schwab, King Charles, like his sons, I & II, confiscated people’s gold to pay their own bills—apparently par for any political age.

So when the, all are welcome recruiting sign went up, it was an even bet for wannabe immigrants. A good idea for Pilgrims Fathers too, until they all hit shore. I failed to mention, there was beer on onboard, (another story for next year). From experience, I know running out of beer is a damn good reason to drop anchor, but putting a party to shore, party being functional word, had its risks.

It seemed during the long voyage, the non-pilgrims turned out to be quite a rowdy bunch and when the new world looked nothing like merry old England, their commitment to the “Virginia Company”, it’s hoped-for landing location and King Charlie, went right out the window, I mean porthole.

Enter Miles Standish, who was “the law” in mercenary clothing, hired to keep order. A guy who likely made your fourth-grade teacher, “Quaker” in her boots as she taught his name and the details of one “Mayflower Compact”.

No, “Mayflower Compact” was not a Thanksgiving recipe! It was an ad hock police power affecting rights of individuals that was in conflict with personal liberty. It basically said, welcome to the New World. Once ashore, we can and will limit your freedoms—”meet the new boss, same as the old boss”.

Free or not, adventures, tradesmen, and Pilgrims alike went ashore shooting, looting and scaring Native Americans and their kids. After nearly five weeks, bored and hungry, they moved on to the famous Plymouth Rock, still nowhere near Virginia as originally planned, where they settled in for the winter.

All of them might have died near that granite boulder on which they stepped, if not for an “Indian”, named Squanto, who mysteriously spoke English and negotiated an Indian soup kitchen of sorts, for those unfortunate starving settlers. Today we celebrate that event, but not Squanto, on a day called Thanksgiving.

This year, remain open and accepting of others in thoughts or deeds and have a Happy and Blessed Day.

After skiing epoch pow of Jackson Hole, Kevin J Palmer COO / Co-Principle was back on the job, building an on Ramp to Financial Freedom so fellow Americans can Rise Up and Build their net worth.

Kevin Palmer a wealth expert with 32 years of driving revenue for major Wall Street firms has a foundation in behavioral finance education, degrees in social work and psychology.

During our interview with this, writer-rebel-producer-poet he told me. “I was lucky enough to grow up having a father that was my mentor and hero. He didn’t do great things he was a great thing! He was not the kind of man who hid behind others or had fake morality.” Palmer continued. “Some men climb to the top by sneakily manipulating, deceiving and exploiting to take advantage of situations while others take a stand. My dad never used another person as a shield he was tough as nails and I learned from him, not the fake people portrayed in movies or media.”

It is no surprise Kevin Palmer challenged First Allied and their law firm in a rigorous battle for broker rights. To read our full interview with this financial industry veteran devoted to challenging economic injustices by empowering others to attain Financial Freedom.

Kevin Palmer discharged an electric shockwave with this take on Covid-19

Government was a beacon of clarity during another pandemic in 1349. Politicians being no different than now, had much to say about the crisis. Science, although in its infancy, had its own versions of Dr. Fauci types who also added to the mix because it was in everyone’s best interests to save lives. Motives were certainly for the greater good, because without commoners, the elite would have no one to work the fields, cook their meals or build those big fancy castles.

The Black Plague, unlike Covid-19, didn’t start in China. It spread from the eastern Mediterranean but “Med Virus” didn’t have the same ring as “China Virus” and the world wasn’t yet focused on narratives. Nonetheless for over three years, Europe suffered greatly as the unnamed pandemic spread rampantly throughout the continent—as if the Dark Ages weren’t tough enough.

Like today, people searched for causes and struggled with antidotes. There were even conspiracy theories, like it started from foods brought by immigrants or it was a heavenly curse and in one city Jews were threatened. Obviously, a grim reality had taken its toll on humanity. Let’s face it, three years was a long time to wear a facemask—or in those days—wrap a dirty rag around your head.

Ironically, in the six months preceding March of 1349 an interesting thing happened. The death rate from the plague began to dramatically level off. Immunities started taking hold and things were finally looking better. Still, those in power debated about how to show best practices, especially since the medieval justice system gave jurisdiction to a lot of noblemen and one could quickly lose their job and their head, for looking too feeble.

After boundless political opinions were swirled, the collective governments and academic wise men of the day decided that the cause of the Black Plague was fleas and government intended to act. With that, a ruling went out to the villages, towns and McCastles in the land to kill all the dogs, thus in theory finishing the plague forever.

Across all of Europe the slaughter of dogs went on day and night for months until not a tail wagged or bark was heard. For the moment it appeared better late than never politicians saved the day. But like most forceful ideas driven by seemingly legitimate action to influence the conduct of others, there was a flaw.

Yes, the cause of the plague was indeed fleas, but not dog fleas. It originated from fleas on rats. During the 14th century the most effective way to keep the rat population in check was through the natural exterminator, dogs!

Thus, by authorities ordering the killing of dogs, they had unwittingly allowed the rat problem to flourish. The unintended consequence—A new and more vicious Black Plague arose that lasted for another three years. When it was all over, one out of three people in the world had died and the phrase “bring out your dead” became a dark part of our history.

About writer rebel producer poet Kevin J Palmer

Kevin J Palmer

Writer Rebel Producer Poet

        Devoted to Peace through Prosperity, Kevin J Palmer is a financial industry veteran challenging economic injustices through empowerment. In the stock market, only the most astute analysts can predict early and accurately that a ripple is about to become a tsunami and he made such calls on numerous occasions.

         His proficiencies are deeply rooted in driving performance for Wall Street giants Merrill Lynch and PaineWebber. After leaving the broker-dealer industry, he served as Managing Director of Strategic Management Advisors, where he collaborated with other executives to build better securities firms during a financial paradigm shift.

           In 2008, to drill deeper into his 98-percentile hypothesis, he spun off the SMA Institute. There, using scientific method, combining graduate studies in finance, with psychology and social work degrees, he dramatically altered socioeconomic forecasting and investment policy modeling.

           Measuring scope and scale of emotional intelligence in cognitive decision-making, he uncovered how people create wealth and make financial choices. The resulting behavioral and monetary insights opened barriers to attainment for ordinary people everywhere.

            His public advocacy against economic abuse resulted in methods to advance morally achievable wealth. That collection of work continues to disrupt the debate about wealth-stratification and economic inequality.

                In his free time, this champion of financial justice participates in wildlife rescue, environmental stewardship and as recipient of Arizona Governor’s Archaeology Award, is fascinated by uncovering the lives of individuals who lived thousands of years ago.
