Most westernised countries are financed with long run perspectives in mind including the making of space in history for new kings & queens, living through one century at a time. This includes the capability to survive and re-adjust in the instance of a war time economy occurring. This is why a country is not a corporation. The painful part: in Barbados we have to understand the slave trade, it is part of our history however brutal and dark that period of time was, it lingers with us to this day just like dangerous far-right-leaning ideologies still linger in Europe. When war breaks out, everything changes quickly and radically, as it should. However, it is my belief that calling for reparations is the wrong way to go bout it, as we inherit the good and bad from previous ruling classes & generations as new ones get seated. This same reason is why every single economy on the planet is debt based through the centralised system except for Iran & North Korea, this is what Mr. Ray Dalio refers to as the economic machine. Looking back through a historical context most “hard times” were defined by nations at war (there are many different forms of war as we are more sophisticated today, commonly people predominantly care about those originating from trade, but there is also war for human rights, war for peace, war for animal rights..). These times of temporary instability are followed by good times of general peace. This is also why, those in trouble, have to knock on the door of the White House and ask for help. This in turn entail that roughly 40% of any given economy is owned by domestic family(s), where the remaining 60% can and is competed for by old and new market entrants. Thus, it is important to know which risk you and your family carry, in my case I’m Hurricane Boy (first come first served). Yes, these systems are brutal, whether we look at Russian Autocracy, Chinese Bottom Up or western (predominantly American) Top Down. Both for owners as well as for workers, by design. However it allows for those willing and able to work to build a house (piece by piece or through mortgage), get married (church & spirituality), start a family (fulfilment), retirement (our preferences tend to change with time & life experience) living with meaning (finding what you are passionate in doing for a living). It also accommodates for human development & life long learning. It is said that it takes 3 generations to cycle out the horrors of war meanwhile it takes 1 generation for a legal migrant to settle in a new country. I predominantly deal with high level risk transfers facilitating dispute resolution on a high level from an economic perspective quietly behind the curtains while ensuring & prioritising the safety of families living their life.

While my home, is in Barbados, I come and go as I like in Europe, since I was born the glorious year of 1997 in Sweden. #SundaySharing
