For over four decades, many of the planet’s biggest trouble makers and assholes have met each year in Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum with the humble mission of, “Improving the state of the world.” Each year since 1978, the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City has sponsored a symposium in Jackson Hole on an important issue facing the world’s bankers and their pet politicians and government bureaucrats. Symposium participants include prominent central bankers, finance ministers, academics, and financial market participants from around the world. For 7 years on Zerohedge, I, and many of you, have ridiculed those incredibly wealthy and very powerful people from the comfort of our keyboards, while taking little or no action. Truthfully, our comfort may be our pen. For those of us that don’t want to be a turkey, and that seek a way out of our false comfort…that want to be bold and revolutionary…we must also find a way to overcome our fear. FEAR. False Evidence Appearing Real. The best way I know to overcome fear is with knowledge. Knowledge allows us to see false evidence as false. Knowledge also allows us to be bold, and to take action, rather than be timid, staying right where we are. Knowledge enables us to be revolutionary.
Topics:

| Friends, the time has come for The First ZeroHedge Symposium and Live Fight Club.
Get your brain and liver to beautiful Marfa, Texas, June 16 -18, 2017, and we’ll all just see what happens. First of all, to make it happen, we need everyone to please visit our GoFundMe site and donate some Federal Reserve Notes to help pay for expenses, primarily our rental of the St. George’s hall, where we can listen to our speakers, hold our discussions, and solve the universe’s big problems, or at least fight about them intelligently. If we raise enough dough, we’ll get a band or two to come play for us in the evening. |

| Secondly, if you are not planning to camp out in the high desert, or sleep in the gutter or jail, then reserve a luxury suite, historic hotel room, teepee, yurt, trailer, or tent (and hot tub) at one of the few fine sleeping establishments within stumbling distance of the many fine bars in town. You better hurry! The most interesting and best accommodations go fast.

Call for speakers in the following areas:
Several other topics are already being allocated to speakers, including yours truly. If you have something else interesting in mind, feel free to shoot me an email. I will be posting some follow-on articles here on ZH, but if someone is willing to set up a web page where we can post information and updates, that would be very much appreciated. Finally, if anyone is able to get the Femen topless protesters to show up, then please do so. |

| What do you think, friends? I’d like to do this without sponsorship, etc.
