Production Team 2022-2023
Jeffery Berwick
CEO
Anarcho-Capitalist. Libertarian. Freedom fighter against mankind’s two biggest enemies, the State and the Central Banks. Jeff Berwick is the founder of The Dollar Vigilante and host of the popular video podcast, Anarchast. Jeff is a prominent speaker at many of the world’s freedom, investment and cryptocurrency conferences including his own, Anarchapulco, as well as regularly in the media including CNBC, Bloomberg and Fox Business. Jeff also posts video content daily to, Bitchute, Odysee, Dtube, Brighteon and our own decentralized video platform Vigilante.tv.
Jeff’s background in the financial markets dates back to his founding of Canada’s largest financial website, Stockhouse.com, in 1994. In the late ‘90s the company expanded worldwide into 8 different countries and had 250 employees and a market capitalization of $240 million USD at the peak of the “tech bubble”. To this day more than a million investors use Stockhouse.com for investment information every month.
Jeff was the CEO from 1994 until 2002 when he sold the company. Afterwards, Berwick went forth to live on and travel the world by sailboat but sank his boat in a storm off the coast of El Salvador. After being saved clinging to his surfboard with nothing but a pair of surfing shorts left of all his material possessions he decided to “live nowhere” and travel the world as spontaneously as possible with one overarching goal: See and understand the world with his own eyes, not through the lens of the media.
He went on to visit nearly 100 countries over five years and did and saw things that no education could ever teach. He met and spoke with a plethora of amazing people, from self-made billionaires to some of the brightest minds in finance – as well as entrepreneurs from a broad range of backgrounds and locations from tech companies in southern China to resource developers in Thailand, Russia and Chile. He also read everything he could find on how the world really works… politically and financially. A pursuit he continues to this day.
That education led him to become one of the biggest proponents of the Permanent Traveler/Prior Taxpayer (PT) Theory.
He expatriated, long ago from his country of birth, Canada, and considers himself a citizen of the world. He has lived in numerous locales since including Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Bangkok and Acapulco, Mexico.

Rebecca Steele Scott
Stage and Nightlife Manager
Rebecca Steele Scott is a kaleidoscope of skills and interests. Her first love was the sport of skydiving which she started when she was 20 years old, becoming a professional skydive videographer and filming the first jumps of over 2000 people. The love of filming and video editing in this 'extreme' sport gave Rebecca the idea for her first event - Cairns Adventure Film Festival - which ran from 2010 to 2012 in Far North Queensland. This event was the start of Rebecca's passion for creating unique and engaging events that connect the community. Her other events included Illuminate Cairns Projection Festival and the Tropical Steampunk series of costume, sculpture and design events. In 2021, Rebecca started her journey as a visual artist learning VJing and by buying two projectors thus creating the moniker of Steele Sessions. Her other passion is energy healing and body work where she follows the path to super health and connection to the divine.
