PLATINUM RENDEZVOUS UPDATE AND SCHEDULE

Download PDF

If you can’t wait for May 6th, you’re not alone.  This will be TTP’s 10th Rendezvous – Rendezvous X – and we plan to make it our best yet. 

Miko has the full hour-by-hour schedule – from opening at 6pm Friday May 6 to closing at 12:30pm Sunday May 8 – below.  Let me fill in the details.  We have a program I think is a real mind-blow.  Here we go.

Our Friday night dinner speaker is financial guru Hank Brock, author of  Your Complete Guide to Money Happiness.  Hank will talk to us about The Last Dominoes:  Why worldwide economic collapse is inevitable. 

After a short life coaching session with Joel Wade, national security guru Alex Alexiev gives his first talk, The Land Without Famine, how Bulgaria and Eastern Europe are avoiding the collapse Hank Brock describes.

We end the evening with Jack Kelly on A Hill To Die On, detailing The Importance and Stakes of 2012.  The stakes are vast, and Kelly calls ‘em as he sees ‘em.

We start Saturday morning with a real eye-opener on America’s Vital Signs by orthopedic surgeon and host of the Operation Freedom radio show Dr. Dave Janda. 

Then I hold forth with an in-depth exploration of the entire world I call The Map of the Future.

We end the morning with a pick-up from Hank Brock.  The collapse he described last night may be grim, but now he describes solutions to it:  Protecting your assets and lifestyle from the coming crisis  — and even profiting from it!

Hank will be hosting a luncheon Saturday, sponsored by his company Brock Associates, for all those interested in learning about his services.  It’s an objective, transparent explanation of how the financial planning process ought to be done.  Hank promises it’ll be educational and fun.  I’ll sure be there.

After lunch with either Hank or friends, we’re off to explore Red Rock Canyon, a spectacularly gorgeous natural area hidden away just a few minutes from the Strip.  We’ll have a marvelous photo-op scenic drive and a short hike. 

Our dinner speaker Saturday night is famed author and military strategist, Lt.Col. (US Army ret.) Ralph Peters.  Ralph’s latest of his over two dozen books is The Officer’s Club.  You’ve read many of his columns in TTP, and most likely seen him on television, for he’s been on every major US network news show, and serves as Fox News’ Strategic Analyst.

We are truly honored to have Ralph join us, and provide us with Insights on Global Insecurity.

If there is anyone equal to following Ralph Peters, no doubt it’s Alex Alexiev, author of The Main Enemy: Islamism, which began running in TTP last week.  Alex will discuss the threat of Islamism not just to us but to Islam itself in Islam: Trapped Between the 21st Century and the 7th.

We end the evening with a special guest, Andy Abboud, Director of Government Relations at the most ultra-luxury resort hotel on the Strip, The Venetian.  The Venetian is "the hotel Vegas unions love to hate," thanks to Andy, who has been tasked by his boss, Venetian owner Sheldon Addelson, to keep his hotel strictly non-union.

Andy’s story of how he accomplishes this amidst the incredible and unceasing thuggery of Vegas labor unions is both fascinating and revelatory.  The lessons he has learned can be applied to the struggles that private companies and public governments alike face with their violent and abusive unions all across America.

We start Sunday morning with a tribute to TTP mothers – for it is Mother’s Day!

Our breakfast speakers are Marco "The Wizard" Gilligan, Paul Rosenberg of Cryptohippie, and David Evry of Securelaptop.org, discussing Preserving Your Security from info-thieves, hackers, and what Paul so appropriately calls The Electronic Police State.

You’ll learn how to preserve your data privacy from Marco, your online privacy from Paul, and how to have a Totally Secure Laptop from David, impenetrable to anyone such as TSA thieves who claim the right to steal your computer and data at airport security.

Then, the TTP Forum’s resident genius – MIT couldn’t measure his IQ – Skye, will discuss Preserving Your Freedom:  what very specific, practical, and necessary steps you can take to protect and preserve yourself and your family from the onslaught of Uncle Gestapo, and the resultant violent anarchy that may well sweep over our land.

Plus, you get to ask Skye any question you’ve ever had about any technology or branch of science, and you’ll get an amazingly concise and precise answer!

Next, Dr. Bill Maykel, a practitioner of functional medicine, will give a hands-on explanation of Preserving Your Health.  Dr. Bill’s presentation simply astounded those who attended Rendezvous IX in Washington DC last November.

Right in front of everybody’s eyes, he examined a fellow who had had a shoulder problem for 20 years – and he took less than a minute to fix it.  Presidents of major companies travel from all over the world for an appointment with him.  And he is coming to see us.  You’ll be blown away by how much he can improve your health.

Lastly, TTP’s Life Coach Joel Wade will give us guidance on Preserving Your Happiness amidst the tribulations America is being subjected to.

Our finale is the All Speakers Q&A, where you get to ask all our extraordinary speakers whatever questions you want.  Then it’s arrivederci, sayonara and vaya con dios until Rendezvous XI this fall.

Of course, this is just the official program.  Many TTPers consider the real value of  Rendezvous is enjoying the camaraderie and friendship of their fellow TTPers.  Once you experience it, you’ll never forget it – and can’t wait for the next Rendezvous.

So if you haven’t signed up, do so now.  I’ll see you in Vegas!
