About this listen
This classic expose of the Fed has become one of the best-selling books in its category of all time. Where does money come from? Where does it go? Who makes it? The money magician's secrets are unveiled. Here is a close look at their mirrors and smoke machines, the pulleys, cogs, and wheels that create the grand illusion called money. A boring subject? Just wait. You'll be hooked in five minutes. It reads like a detective story - which it really is, but it's all true.
This book is about the most blatant scam of history. It's all here: the cause of wars, boom-bust cycles, inflation, depression, prosperity. Your world view will definitely change. Putting it quite simply, this may be the most important book on world affairs you will ever read.
The 5th Edition includes a no-holds barred analysis of bank bailouts under the Bush and Obama Administrations that are shown to be nothing less than legalized plunder of the American people. Many other updates have been added, including a revision to the list of those who attended the historic meeting at Jekyll Island, where the Federal Reserve was created.

Story
Mr. Griffin marshals the evidence that cancer is a deficiency disease like scurvy or pellagra aggravated by the lack of an essential food compound in modem mans diet. That substance is vitamin B17. In its purified form developed for cancer therapy, it is known as Laetrile. Why has orthodox medicine waged war against this non-drug approach? The author contends that the answer is to be found, not in science, but in politics, and is based upon the hidden economic and power agenda of those who dominate the medical establishment.

An incredible, true “whodunnit” read
Reading this is like taking the “red pill” from The Matrix. I recommend it for people who wish to be woke, or more woke, and want to take advantage of the powerful lessons it provides.
You’ll never look at money the same way again, because you’ll know the TRUTH about the Fed, how banks really work (not at all what we’re led to believe) and you’ll know how we came to the currency failure we’re in now.

Why all the “smoke and mirrors” about money?
Edward Griffin presents a fascinating story on how the Federal Reserve was created that implies many nefarious and sinister motives. I suspect his book “The Creature from Jekyll Island” contains a considerable amount of fiction and without further research, it is difficult to know what level of truth is in the book.
I was a teenager when I realized that all the fascinating stories about religions and gods are fictional. I felt foolish and started questioning why all the “smoke and mirrors” about religions and gods. I concluded that all these stories have been made up by an elite class of intellectuals used to control and govern people sometimes for the better but, often times for the worst resulting in bad behaviors, conflicts and wars. It took me a little longer to realize what a house of cards the modern economic and financial system is. I was well into my forties when I first started to learn how money is created. At first, I could not believe it. This was not what I was taught about money in my younger days. Once again, I felt foolish and also betrayed by the system and started questioning why all the “smoke and mirrors” about money. To me the most stunning realization was that modern money is created by issuing loans (creating debt). The idea that money is created by issuing loans (creating debt) never occurred to me and did not realize that most money is created this way including most of the money government spends.
