Insurance companies have a playbook to avoid paying your claims.
I spent years defending them in court.
Now I expose their 4 favorite tactics that cost property owners millions.
Here's what they don't want you to know:
First, the uncomfortable truth insurers hide.
They're profit machines disguised as protectors.
Every denied claim boosts their bottom line.

A silent killer lurks in thousands of American buildings.
The same thing that destroyed Paris's $750M airport terminal.
It collapsed just 11 months after opening.
Now engineers found the same deadly defect spreading across America:
May 23, 2004. Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport.
Terminal 2E's roof suddenly crashed down at 7 AM.
4 dead. 7 injured. The building was 11 months old.
The cause? Bureaucratic paralysis that let known defects go unfixed.

The country with the Earth's largest oil reserves can't feed its people.
America had zero known oil reserves in 1776, but became the world's richest nation.
The difference isn't oil, gold, or any natural resource.
How one simple document unlocked $50 trillion in wealth:
Venezuela sits on 300 billion barrels of oil.
Congo controls most of the world's cobalt.
Both remain desperately poor.
America built prosperity with rocky soil and no known minerals.
The secret wasn't underground:

In 1785, America invented a radical new way to distribute land.
We replaced Europe's feudal estates with a grid system that opened millions of acres.
The result: More Americans owned land than anywhere else on Earth.
Now, new state laws threaten the property rights that made it possible.
Picture England after 1066: most people were legally bound serfs who couldn't leave their lord's estate or own land.
The Domesday Book recorded who held what, and it wasn't the common people.
This feudal system shaped English common law for centuries:

Napoleon lost at Waterloo in 1815.
But his legal code still governs 3.5 billion people's property rights today.
From Louisiana to Latin America, one document created the foundation for $280 trillion in real estate.
How a desperate general's reforms in 1804 accidentally built the modern property market:
Imagine buying a house in a country with hundreds of conflicting property laws.
In one town, your deed is valid. Drive 50 miles? It's worthless.
That was France before Napoleon - complete legal chaos.
The reality was even more bizarre:

And we handed them the tools to do it...
Here's a look into their plans to take over the US power grid: 🧵
China's systematic power grid research should alarm every American:

In 2014, this man turned down $600,000.
And it might be the smartest financial decision of the decade.
Because what he found could save you (and every School Superintendent) six figures.
Here’s how he found what insurance companies hide in their contracts:
The school district's roofs were damaged.
Multiple buildings suffered extensive damage.
And insurance companies moved quickly to contain their exposure, offering around $600,000 and pressured him to sign immediately.

When oil prices jumped from $2 to $11 per barrel, our infrastructure could not handle the knock-on effects.
And it almost destroyed us...
Here's how oil forced us to reframe America's infrastructure: 🧵
3 waves reshaped America forever:
• 1970s: Energy chains broke when OPEC's oil embargo exposed our vulnerability
• 1980s: Communications exploded after AT&T's monopoly crumbled
• 1990s: Internet revolution began, connecting the world
Each drove us to lighter infrastructure:

Lincoln was turning the South’s 3 greatest strengths into fatal weaknesses.
Here’s how policy—not bullets—ended the country's deadliest war: 🧵
The American Civil War was a battle of industrial capacity as much as it was a military conflict.
The 1860s transformed America from an agricultural society to an industrial powerhouse.

The Magna Carta established property rights 800 years ago.
Now insurance companies have found a way around it.
How? By putting barriers in place to stop you from contesting claims.
