Steve Christ


Like most people, Steve's resume is something less than a straight line.

In fact it resembles a long country road with many turns, which in this case, is a good thing. Born in Baltimore, Steve graduated from Towson State University where he studied Journalism, English and History. At the time he had hoped to become a newspaper reporter.

But shortly after college Steve reached a surprising conclusion: That what he really knew about life and how the world really works couldn't fill a thimble.

This epiphany sent him in new and exciting directions. Along the way Steve owned several businesses, worked in sales, traded stocks with the best of them and started a family.

These experiences, of course, taught him more than he ever could have learned in school.

But while his resume may tell you where he's been, to fully understand Steve and where he is going, you need to understand one thing-his undying beliefs.

Among other things Steve believes:

  • That American style capitalism is the greatest economic force on earth. It has raised more people out of poverty than any other system ever conceived.
  • That the human body is an amazing instrument. It deserves to be worked and well fed.
  • That tyrants exist only when good men fail to act.
  • That The U.S. is the greatest country there is, has been, or ever will be.
  • That if you and all of the people you love have their health that you have no real problems
  • That Darwin was wrong.
  • That all men are born into this world with two things: Time and talent.
  • That the right to own property, the rule of law, and freedom are indispensable to our democracy. When we weaken any of these we do so at our own peril.
  • That English is the most beautiful language written and spoken.
  • That democracies are slow to anger. But that when they act evil falls at their feet.
  • That any government born of violence and maintained by terror is wholly illegitimate and consequently dangerously irrational.
  • That the knowledge of the difference between right and wrong is etched into every human heart. It is called your conscience and everybody has one.
  • That a man's labors ought to belong entirely to himself. The income tax gives every working man a partner that he neither wants nor needs
His thimble now full, Steve continues to learn and observe. He's an expert in the housing market... and his columns appear weekly in Wealth Daily, Gold World and Energy and Capital .
