 EXCERPTS FROM MARKZ

MZ: Right now I have people who are absolutely positive it is happening this week. They are ending auctions in Iraq and I am being told it’s the 28th-which is a Saturday . I think the worst case scenario with People I know is somewhere between now and the 7th…or right after the inauguration.

MZ: Nobody knows the exact timing. Maybe 6-7 in the world may know- but we are not one of those.

Member: Banks - closing down for year end accounting purposes. Think they will RV then or wait until afterwards into 2025 for tax & Trump credit purposes?

Member: I was hoping for Christmas Day? They could send out notifications to book appts to cash in on 28 Dec

Member: Member Ariel just posted that tonight is a very logical night for RV to go.

Member: HOLLY has just reported that her sources suggest that the RV/GCR will initiate on JAN. 6th or 7th which is also Christmas to a lot of people.

MZ: Yes between here and there- I’m feeling good.
