Ask yourself how did it happen that some people got some much power to affect economy around you. Now find a way to insure/protect yourself against that.
You will probably find out that, for instance, central bank manipulations with currency are protected by police enforcement in forms of various laws and regulations anybody dealing with money needs to comply ("allowed to participate on the market"). Liberty Dollar founder was deprived of all his customers' silver and is being prosecuted. Bitcoin companies are all on the verge of being harassed etc.
Or, if you want to create an alternative bank or fund, you'll find it's not so easy to do: people with armed forces will politely ask you to comply with tons of regulations. It's basically a one self-protecting cartel and the basis of it is access to "legal" violent power.
