The Problem: Dollar Devaluation

When I took office as DSA President, the DSA's reserves were sitting in traditional savings accounts, slowly losing purchasing power to inflation. Every year, our money was worth less, and our ability to support members during critical negotiations was weakening. I knew we needed a different approach.

The Solution: Diversification into Hard Assets

I led the DSA's transition into hard assets that maintain their value over time:

• Gold and Silver: Time-tested stores of value that have protected wealth for thousands of years
• Bitcoin: Digital gold that offers protection against currency debasuation and provides growth potential
• Strategic Reserves: Maintaining liquid funds for immediate operational needs while growing long-term wealth

The Results

This strategy didn't just preserve our purchasing power—it enhanced it. While other unions watched their reserves shrink in real terms, the DSA built a stronger financial foundation that gave us leverage in negotiations and security for our members' future.

My Vision for the MSA

As your Vice President, I'll bring this same financial leadership to the MSA. Here's my plan:

• Conduct a comprehensive review of our current financial position
• Develop a diversified reserve strategy that protects against inflation
• Build stronger financial reserves that give us negotiating power
• Ensure our organization's financial security for generations of members to come
