The recent bubble in crude oil and real estate, followed by the dramatic crash, is fresh in all traders' memory. That is leading people to say the same thing is now happening with gold. However, I remember that during the crude oil bubble, many of the news articles and politicians were saying...

The only way to save the dollar is to stop the printing presses, dramatically cut government spending and raise taxes through the roof. The government will not do the first two because the stock market would crash and we would enter a depression. Taxes, however, will be going waaaay up...

I learned the hard way a long time ago-- "Your actions speak so loudly that I cannot hear what you are saying". Bernanke can say he supports a strong dollar all he wants. But as long as he keeps interest rates so low and keeps printing money, the US dollar has no where to go but down and my...

I would appreciate any insight into the central banks and gold market. Thanks.

I was at a party over the weekend and a friend brought up my favorite topic-gold. He is retired and lives off of his pension and investments. He has a financial planner who manages his portfolio, which is diversified into the typical conservative stock and bond percentages. He follows the...

1 ounce gold Buffalos come sealed in plastic with printing from the US mint on them. They are also 24 karat making them shinier than the 22 karat American Eagle. My coin dealer only sells them for $7 more than the Eagles. Their unique design, bright gold color and plastic seal make them my gold...

I have watched their free webinars multiple times, including the one today with Infinity Futures. I have never joined because they charged about $7000 the last time I checked over a year ago. I watch a lot of free webinars because the presenter usually has to give away a good technique to...

This is a real tragedy for those families who have lost their homes. Unfortunately, with all of the option-ARM resets that start coming due next spring, the foreclosure problem (and the economy) is only going to get much worse. As an investor, I would like to profit from the banks' glut of...

My son has a 21 year old friend on unemployment. He gets $200 per week, which is only slightly less than he was earning before he lost his job. He has to apply for a certain number of jobs per month, but he purposely puts things on the application and says things in the interview to keep from...

I'm sure that approach will work well...if you're in your eighties. :p

What would you do if you had a lot of debt and wanted to get rid of it? You would probably spend less money and get a second job. However, our political leaders are spending MORE money, not cutting spending. If they CUT spending, they would not have to print as much money. I guarantee that if...

I understand how someone might think it is strange for people to be putting their weakening dollars into gold and silver coins, buying weapons for self-protection and preparing to be self-sufficient in the event that there are disruptions in the food, water or energy supply. Especially since the...

When the grains are moving in the same direction as the seasonal tendency, you can focus on trades in that direction. MRCI.com is a great site for seasonals. If you know how to use the COT report, that is also a great tool for the daily/weekly direction and may sway you to hold a winning...

Thank you for sharing this excellent manual. I am amazed that Mormons have been this prepared for years. There is no doubt in my mind that we are headed for a financial calamity in this country and this book has shown me how unprepared I am. I plan to take action immediately to order...

One ounce Gold Buffalos come in sheets sealed in plastic with writing from the US mint on the plastic. It would be hard to replicate.

I agree with you that the government will probably not take your gold like they did in the thirties. However, they very likely may enact regulations to keep track of who is buying gold, so they can tax it. Right now, you can go into a coin shop and buy gold and silver with cash without giving...

That is exactly why I am investing in silver more than gold. Everyone is talking about gold, which is causing it to go up more than silver right now. However, if there really is a rapid dollar decline and a public panic, Joe Schmoe isn't going to be able to afford gold at $1500+ per ounce...

I saw a 1 ounce gold Buffalo for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I understand that they are 24 carat gold rather than 22 carat found in American Eagles, which makes them shinier, but softer. My coin dealer was selling them for $52 over spot, compared with $45 over spot for gold American...

I have worked with financial advisors before. Some work on a commission basis and should be avoided IMO. They love to sell you variable annuities and other items that are bad investments, but pay them big fat commissions. I believe that the best financial advisors work on a fee only basis...
