    Bump! The Dow is at 17585.00 right now and the world is still chuggin' right along. I've installed my armageddon bunker, purchased some nukes and learned how to grow vegetables under heat lamps................. What now? Oh, yea! I am installing a urine filtration system. Anyone want to come over and test it out?

    Keep that bunker on ice, FF......you may need it down the road. And if you don't, you can always sell it to one of those "preppers", haha.....or maybe even the Federal Government. Or maybe even some relatives. Not sure about the heat lamps, though. Might wanna install some solar panels just to be on the safe side, huh? BTW.....how's your silver stash looking these days? I guess you know JP and the boys are buying all they can and hording it.

    There will always be those that are in denial......I guess FF is of that group. Our monetary system in the US is in a severe crisis, and the expanding of paper money will only exacerbate this crisis and speed up its eventual arrival. I hope those that are in denial like FF are in the vast minority and not the vast majority. As for me, I recognize the difference between commodity money and paper money, and the meaning of intrinsic value. I am also well aware of the historical record of paper money versus commodity money. Paper money systems have always failed and commodity money has never failed. Paper money is always used to fund governments.....always! Issuance of paper money is only a scheme by those in power to rob the people of their wealth.....end of story. So go play your stock markets and pop some champagne for your so called "gains". I suggest you take some of your paper gains and trade them for some hard assets as soon as possible.

    Precious metals is the ONLY protection against a currency implosion......which is what is exactly happening behind the scenes worldwide to the Almighty American Dollar. That means anything and everything based in dollars will greatly devalue(30%) when the big banks eventually collapse. The Western banking system is gonna go bye-bye and be replaced by a new gold-backed Treasury Notes system for world-wide trade. That means the Western Banking Cartel(US, Europe, Japan, et al) will become subordinate to the Chinese and Russian-backed currencies which are gold-backed. The trickle down hits home here in the USA to our back pockets as our internal dollar will then follow with devalutations that are estimated to dip below 25% initially, and perhaps another 25% sometime thereafter. In other words, trade will be based on gold-backed treasury notes and those countries with all the gold(Russia & China) will make the rules and control the trade. The Western economies will need to become re-industrialized (internally) in many new ways in order to quell this new shifting paradigm in world commerce. This could take a decade of suffering before the West could rebound.....not counting any wars. Wars are expensive in every way.....and the Western nations will no longer be able to afford them. They can't now, but the Western Banking Cartel uses their powers to stay afloat now. This will all be ending very soon, folks......so pull up your britches and get ready. Coming to your local bank soon. Go find a good credit union.....if that will help. The only thing that will help will be precious metals. You heard it here first about 3 yrs ago.....remember???

    Gold is cheaper today than it was 3 years ago. The Russian Ruble is certainly not backed by gold and the Russian economy is a shambles. The Chinese economy is also teetering on disaster with their attempt to shift to a consumer based rather than manufacturing based economy.

    Putin is one of the wealthiest men in the world, and has made sure Russia has plenty of gold reserves.....unlike the West. The Shanghai Gold Exchange is now openly operating with many different countries and the LMBA is no longer setting the daily spot prices on gold. The Petro-dollar is no longer a replacement trade medium "currency" for gold and the world is no longer taking our dollars. They don't want to trade their manufactured goods for freshly printed paper that has no backing. US treasuries are being traded back to the US by the boatloads now.....it is only a matter of time until the Western Banking Cartel loses the dollar as the world's reserve currency.....and that time is actually upon us at this very moment. The Chinese have been buying gold from every available source for the past 8 yrs....and are one of the largest producers in the world. They never sell an ounce and have what many believe is the largest horde in the world......well over 20,000 tonnes. When the reset occurs, I'm sure the whole world will find out who really has all the gold......and it ain't the West. The Chinese do have some banking problems internally.....but nothing compared to the West. And they have the gold as well to overcome their internal economic problems.....as well as manufacturing and trade surpluses the West does not enjoy. Go figure again.

    BREXIT.......the vote that takes the Central Banks down. Deutshe Bank is falling apart. QE 4 is ominous and world wide currencies around the globe will soon have no choice but to hyperinflate......all the world currencies are connected one way or another. The Cartel (Central Banks) are in deep trouble......they have run out of ammo. What choices are left to prevent financial world crises? For most of the world, you cannot even buy precious metals now.......you cannot get it. The Cartel are losing control of the silver market which will lead the charge of the world gold market. Massive demand for precious metals worldwide is growing and has been growing for several years. Silver is the flashpoint because there is less physical available to the market.....the price suppressions have closed the mines......the institutional demands have overcome the commercials' suppressions......keep an eye on the silver price rising. Keep in mind that here in America 99.5% of the population has no precious metals. Canada right this moment is within a couple of dollars of an all-time high in the price of silver, and will easily eclipse that in the coming months......there's a world-wide shortage in the supply of silver due to the mine closures, the lack of production, the demand in industrial usages, the crashing world financial markets......people flocking worldwide to obtain some PM's but cannot get it. Here in the US there is still a small window of opportunity and supply still available, but for how much longer is the question to ask yourself now, folks. Geez......every single currency is in the late stages of collapsing and eventually when every currency goes to negative interest rates to hold it all together.......that's when hyperinflation worldwide will start occurring. Guess who has golden parachutes and who doesn't??? One serious question to ask......How much is your well-being worth to have some protection??? What is your children's future worth? Do what you want......just sayin'......I have nothing to do with any of this. I'm just an innocent bystander like you watching from afar as the world's financial crisis continues to unfold right in front of our noses. Good luck to all of you in the near future......I hope you can obtain some PM's when you finally decide you really should get some. God Bless.

    BTW, the financial portfolio of your average Asian family consists of no less than 50% precious metals while that of the average Western nations family is ZERO. The Chinese government and a few others like India openly urge their citizens to buy and keep on hand precious metals. In the end, their populations will support their own national economies when gold and silver again become the standard backing all world trade. You will never hear such from governments in the West......whose basis for operating their economies was taken over by the Federal Reserve system that took control of printing fiat to replace the gold standard way back in the late 20's. Then post WWII up until the Nixon era, most of the gold the US held was redistributed back to FirstWorld countries across the globe to help balance their economies so that the US could continue printing fiat and keep the American Dollar as the world's reserve currency......along with using the Petro-Dollar as our trade "currency" to counteract all the paper printing of a non-gold backed world reserve currency. Remove the petro-dollar and suddenly you have basically worthless paper as a reserve currency backed by nothing......no gold or silver......no strong manufacturing base......no nothing except the US military bases key locations around the world. It has taken 40 yrs since Nixon completely eliminated the gold standard in America, and almost 90 since the Federal Reserve was established and given free reign to print paper fiat without a gold backing. This experiment has lasted much longer than history shows any non-backed fiat has EVER lasted......but there was the industrialization of the West and then the petrodollar to support the paper printing. Those days are now gone.......the experiment has lost its wheels. All non-backed paper printing economies throughout recorded history have failed......every single one of them. Most do not last 40 yrs......much less going on 90. Without something worth value to back a paper currency, theft of the population occurs. The government takes goods/services/value from its citizenry in return for useless paper to stay afloat and to stay in power......until a revolution occurs to replace those in power. What do you think may happen here in the US when the welfare checks and food stamps.....and all the shortages in exports and food supplies begin to dwindle, huh??? When the trillions of dollars in IRA's and savings are scooped up by the government in return for dollars that are devalued at a rate of 30-50%??? Those in power will do whatever is necessary to stay in power as long as possible and continue to enrich themselves as long as possible.......then exit for their "safe havens" before all hell breaks lose. This is a historical fact that has occurred around the world for centuries. I seriously doubt the US national debt is only 18 trillion as they would have everyone believe. Wait until the T-Bills start coming home and all that worthless fiat that is spread all over the world. Then we will discover what our dollar is really worth......somewhere less than 2 cents in all actuality. Do you have some silver coins somewhere??? How about at least 50 silver dollars......999 pure??? You can still get some for about $23.00 each as of today's spot price.

    A tip from unheard sources: Go stock up now on all the gold and silver you can afford. Spend all your Federal Reserve Notes on bills, and keep the newer blue $100's that have the US Treasury backing......the others may become worthless paper. Sources say that's because the Federal Reserve System is now in its last days and will soon become extinct worldwide. Lots of big stuff going on behind the scenes now that will affect the lives of every American citizen.....especially the middle class and poor. Any IRA's, pensions, or other retirement savings should be moved to a Gold or Silver IRA regardless of any penalties incurred.....Or just cash them in and get your money while you still can......something is better than nothing. Whatever happens in the coming months and few years will not be good. The world as we know it in the USA will be slowly coming to a halt......it's already begun. Now the only question left is at what speed can the ramifications be controlled.....and who will be at the top making those decisions. It won't be any of our people here in the USA, that's for sure. We will be forced into giving up our resources to maintain an ever-declining standard of living from here on out.....so prepare and get used to it, folks.

    I've never been a metals guy, always been a stock kinda guy, but we recently inherited some metals and I'm thinking I should keep it.

    Price of gold is a little over half of its all time high and silver is nowhere close... about 1/5?

    I could pocket a decent little chunk now but I'm a hold it and sell high kinda guy. Wonder how long it'll take to get back up there though?

    Buy now while it's still low......you will be protecting yourself with real money, not paper fiat that always depreciates. In a short few years you will be glad you have the metals. Some say there will be a reset in 2018 where gold will go to $5000 upwards and silver will eventually "catchup" to gold at around 15:1 gold to silver ratio. Right now silver is at 75:1 ratio.....way out of whack with historical ratios. They suppress silver by design because of its valued industrial uses......but soon it won't matter. Besides, it's the money of us slaves......gold is the money of the very wealthy. When gold resets, you will see silver climb to the clouds......everybody will be getting out of their stocks and looking for a safe haven. When gold goes up, the dollar falls......this is why the Federal Reserve banksters try to suppress the metals as long as possible. King dollar has been the world's reserve currency ever since post WWII at the Bretton's Agreement. Ever since that time, the dollar has ruled around the world. There is no gold or silver standard backing up King dollar.......it had our oil and gas(petrodollar) agreements as a backing until the past decade......now those are gone. At $50/barrel, the petrodollar cannot support King Dollar around the world. Now the US government(owned by The Powers That Be and The Deep State) uses military actions and political coercion to keep the dollar circulating in world markets as the primary currency. But now that is no longer the case in many countries.......it will all be coming to an end soon. When the dollar loses its reserve status enough around the world, we will see it fall drastically.......and the metals will shoot upward like a rocket. Get your silver now for around $21......soon it will jump to $25, then a steady climb from there. Many financial experts say silver could be as high as $600/troy oz. by 2021. If you don't have it, you will not be able to get it......except for a very very high price. Better to get some now at its lowest price ever(comparing dollar spending power over history).......it will only go up from here in our lifetimes. If you owned 1000 oz. at $20 today and it rose to $500 in 4 yrs.......how much percentage gain would that be??? Let's see......$20,000 today and $500,000 in 4 yrs........that's $480,000 by today's spending power. If and when the dollar starts inflating and hyperinflating......the spending power of the dollar diminishes rapidly.....who knows what silver will really be worth in 4 yrs. Based on the value of the dollar at that time......at least it should keep up and surpass inflation in that period of time. This is what is meant by holding metals for insurance against a declining currency.......its purchasing power remains intact or increases over time. The trick is to acquire the silver when it is still available at a reasonably "low or rockbottom" price. At 75:1 ratio......I think you won't have anything to worry about.

    The historical gold to silver ratio thru the centuries has always been 15 to 1 down to 10 to 1........now it's almost 80 to 1 because of the supression by the powers that be to keep the dollar strong. Keeping the dollar strong means "they" keep their power. But too many other forces are at work now.......these are the last days of King dollar. The transition is already underway as I write these lines. When gold finally reaches $10,000 per troy oz........it is possible silver could climb to as high as $1,000 per troy oz.......a 10:1 ratio. There is less silver above ground than gold......it has so many more industrial usages at a fraction of the cost of gold.......it's our miracle metal. In the ground, the earth at one time had a ratio of about 15 times more silver than gold......hence the gold to silver value. But in today's world this is no longer true.....mining thru the years has greatly reduced that ratio.......silver is used up in products whereas gold is not. Gold is hoarded as real money for the very wealthy......silver is not. Gold has always been hoarded and passed down thru the centuries.......silver has not. Now silver is much rarer than ever before......perhaps even more than gold.......but the very wealthy do not want it to be valuable. Those holding and hoarding gold want to keep the value of gold high......even though there is more of it above ground than silver and it has very little industrial use. I hope you can see now what kind of forces are at work here and the true value of silver in our world today........silver is truly the most underpriced commodity on planet earth right now.......but it will not remain this way for much longer.
