Statistics show that only 1% of the world's population owns more than just a few grams of gold as a class asset. I seriously doubt the credibility of these statistics and believe the actual number to be far less than this. Why? Because even highly educated and so-called well-off individuals such as doctors and lawyers and scientists, electricians, property developers, factory bosses, project managers and school principals, even accountants and financial advisors still end up in financial hardship with the first appearance of a real crisis on their doorstep. Every one of them, highly intelligent, yet suddenly caught out and exposed as having been conducting very convincing financial acrobatics---juggling pins set on fire while suspended on a highwire riding a unicycle on stilts with 3 chairs balanced on their heads.
Like most of us, they too were only a few payment cycles away from calamity until calamity came. Things would have gone quite differently with a few thousand grams, or a few hundred, of saved Gold acquired monthly through Karatbars in addition to all the getaway breaks, nice things, days out and other indulgences everyone of us spends our money on over the years. They are all different people but had one thing in common: all neglected to acquire sufficient, if any, Gold for a Rainy Day.

Now they're facing a storm of debt with no appreciating assets to show for a lifetime of genuine hard work, dedication, training, ingenuity and sacrifice. Highly intelligent people. And I'm confident that, just as I did, all of them had also made repeated, genuine efforts to save something with their bank; like me, they too just gave up saving when it seemed so pointless. Truth is, whatever money got saved at the bank most likely wouldn't've saved them anyway: it needs to be an appreciating asset. To repeat myself, this phenomenon is no accident: this ignorance is by design.
We all believed The Lie. The beautiful horse. The cute, likeable, geeky bald fella with the specs. The hip standup comics. Those 'We're All One Nation' inclusive ads saying how much they care about us. Perhaps in the same way as a livestock farmer and his slaughterhouse owner brothers might care for their herd! Cows are fed and sheltered, and from this they may conclude that they're cared for. They may believe this right up until they see and smell what is happening to the unfortunate ones in front of them at the slaughterhouse. Then they no longer believe that the farmer is their friend.
We know now what the cows will only learn in their final moments. Yet many of us still want to continue believing that your 'financial farmer' is your friend.
The idea of a modest amount being deposited and converted into assets, steadily growing month by month into a residual 24-hour income for you....all sounds too good to be true? Almost impossible? At first, I thought so. Why waste my time, I thought. Then, thinking about the past decades spent working and seeing no progress for my work, I decided that the possibility of real financial freedom is worth a few days' or even a few weeks' time. It's like being allowed to test drive a new car or to audit, or sit in on, an Introductory Automotive Repairs class for a few weeks, absolutely free, without any obligation to commit to taking the course or buying the car until I'm completely satisfied with everything. I can always change my mind: nothing to lose.
Getting back to the impossible.
Imagine a car---actually, statistically, the world's safest car---that can drive itself plus earn its owner a 24-hour income anytime it's not needed by its owner! Impossible?
In 2012, it probably was.
Next year? Maybe not.
Tesla Motors is promising its automobile buyers the ability to add their privately owned vehicles to the company's planned self-driving 'RoboTaxi' fleet once local and regional governments pass laws permitting driverless taxi service. Right now, there are Tesla owners hardly 'driving' their cars: advanced 21st-century computer software allows owners to summon their Tesla by phone from its parking spot where it remotely parked itself earlier. In the 'Autopilot' mode, a Tesla does the actual driving (as in Turn, Brake, Change lanes and Accelerate) the majority of the time, turning the driving experience from a chore to an absolute delight with far less stress and aggravation. Tesla's audio sound system? Simply the best, according to both experts and consumer reports.
Today, it's you and I who can do what was once impossible----by simply using Karatbars' 21st-century e-Commerce platform established for its members to be able to generate a 24-hour income through saving its affordable assets, and without having to sell those assets. Leveraging your pocket change, over time, into a residual income. Not in a Monopoly board game. In real life.
