At least when it comes to gifts.

If I get someone a gift well in advance of the occasion, not being able to tell that person about it absolutely eats away at me.

Next month at my Practical Liberty Un-Conference I'll be presenting a very special award to a certain person in the audience, and the wait is absolutely killing me.

We have every right to gripe about the state of our country and the world. But griping is easy. Improving things is hard.

But I don't know about you: I happen to like a challenge.

At my conference we won't sit around listening to boring lectures. We'll talk to each other and put our heads together to help make living under a hostile regime a little bit easier.

No theory here. Only practical topics.

Plus, I'm bringing in the great magician Doc Dixon to entertain us with an all-new show.

And you get to bring a +1 for free. (The most normal people in the libertarian world attend this conference, so if you're looking for a way to ease your friend into our ideas, this is probably your safest bet.)

Oh, and since this newsletter is dedicated to business, I should mention: my best guy, Paul Counts, whom Ron Paul and David Stockman trust with their marketing, will be there for you to pick his brain.

Last year as I mingled around I heard Paul giving someone advice that would save the person (I kid you not) $300K.

Everyone loves a road trip, so hop in that car they don't want you driving and come down to see me:
