Property values in Ukraine did not drop prior to the 2022 invasion. Instead, the real estate market experienced a record-high growth year in 2021, and property values remained remarkably stable right up until Russia launched its full-scale attack on February 24, 2022. [1, 2, 3]
Despite the buildup of Russian troops along the borders in late 2021 and early 2022, buyers, sellers, and developers in major cities like Kyiv generally operated as if the threat of a full-scale war or an attack on the capital was highly unlikely. Property transactions and pricing held steady until the day of the invasion, which completely froze the primary and secondary real estate markets and suspended operations. It was only after the invasion began that market dynamics shifted dramatically—causing transaction volumes to plummet and values to diverge regionally based on proximity to the front lines.
My point was that a warning to someone in Ukraine that they needed to move needed to give them sufficient time to do that. It can take 3 months to close on a real estate deal.
Many people are stuck in their current living situation either because of a deposit or sunk equity. God is going to give you sufficient warning to get out and that includes being able to leave financially. It can be very expensive to quit your job and move. So then sufficient warning leaves people without excuse.
Well much of the warnings I have given have been specifically to people living in the US, especially if you are on the East Coast, West Coast or Gulf coast.

This is the true scorecard to see who is winning, the US or China.
The median family income in the US is 87,000 a year. If you fall below that number you are being squeezed very hard. (even though that is the median family income, 80-85% of Americans make less than that, but this includes unemployed, single, homeless and retired people).
Fake news!
Russia would have to ask North Korea for 1.5 million troops because Russia doesn't have that many troops left.
If they ran a draft then all the people they would draft have no training or experience and would be useless and nothing more than cannon fodder in the front lines meat grinder
Here's some more fake news for you.
Russia is actively recruiting Americans into their fight.
Russia paying US recruits $26,000 to become cannon fodder in Ukraine war
“When an American suddenly ends up fighting on Russia’s side … They are invited onto television… and presented as proof that ‘ordinary Americans support Russia.'”

Yes, further proof they do not have 1.5 million troops to send in to the fight with Ukraine.
and what about Russia threatening to nuke NATO, how often does that happen? Oh wait, this is the first time.
They Lied!
You have been lied to, this recent near miss at a airplane crash is proof.
After the September 11 attacks, airlines and regulators required commercial carriers to replace flimsy pre-9/11 doors with heavily reinforced, intrusion-resistant, and often bulletproof cockpit doors made with steel, Kevlar composites, and hardened frames. [1, 2, 3, 4]
How Cockpit Doors Changed
- Before 9/11: Cockpit doors were lightweight interior partitions made of thin wood or aluminum, meant to separate crew from passengers rather than stop determined attackers. [1, 2]
- Immediate Fixes (Fall 2001): Major airlines quickly installed temporary bars, deadbolts, and extra hardware within weeks of the attacks. [1]
- Permanent Mandates (2002–2003): Laws like the Aviation and Transportation Security Act forced airlines to install hardened, locked, and penetration-resistant barriers designed to withstand extreme blunt force, firearms, and shrapnel. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Remaining Challenges
- The Open-Door Gap: While the closed doors are virtually impenetrable, they must occasionally open during flight for pilot breaks or meals, creating a temporary vulnerability. [1, 2]
- Secondary Barriers: Newer federal rules require secondary physical mesh or gate barriers on newly delivered commercial airliners to block the cabin while the main reinforced door is opened
Make no mistake, this war is over the US dollar as the reserve currency.
Everyone is now dumping
BRICS is an alliance against the west and their hegemony with the US dollar.
People lie, money doesn't lie. That is the basic rule when I was a stock broker. So then, the IRGC, Putin, Trump, Xi, Netanyahu, they are all people. They will lie and they will justify their lies because of national security, etc. So then the place where they aren't lying is the bond market*. If the US was winning everyone would be buying 30 year treasuries and the interest rates would be falling. However, interest rates are rising and they are rising the fastest they have ever risen. This is the world telling you the US and the western alliance is losing.
*The reason the bond market is so influential. If you are buying and selling in US dollars you have two choices. You can use US currency, but it doesn't pay interest, or you can use bonds which do pay interest. Why would you hold a billion dollars in cash in your central banks vault when you can instead hold bonds. 5% of $1 billion is $50 million a year. People don't buy US bonds as an investment (at least not the majority of transactions), they buy them because it is better to hold US bonds than US dollars. Suppose I am closing on a house, they need to see the money in the bank but it takes 3 months before we close. Why not collect 3 months of interest?
Therefore low interest rates means everyone needs the bonds because they are buying and selling in US dollars. High interest rates rising at the highest rate indicate that instead of buying US bonds they are selling them. If I am holding US bonds paying 2.5% interest and they are good for one more year, I can sell them at half price, 50% off and now they are paying 5% interest. Not only is everyone selling their bonds, they are selling them at a discount.
