The Chicago Way Precious Metals Protection Plan |
Do you have a plan to protect your precious metals?
You should. I’m going to tell you mine today.
I’m from Chicago.
The second city. The windy city. The city of big shoulders.
All of that sounds nice, but if you’ve live in Chicago, the phrase that is always top of mind is not so romantic.

Your Weight in Gold |
The traditional phrase “worth your weight in gold” has been used since Roman times, and is a well-known saying signifying that someone or something is very valuable, helpful, or to be treasured.
But taken literally, what ‘value’ would a person be worth if they were worth their own weight in gold?
For a given gold price, the answer not surprisingly depends on the person’s weight, so a more suitable and relevant question might be what value would an average person be worth if they were worth theirMonday, February 5, 2018 |

When The Rich Become Preppers, It's Time To Worry |
For over 10 years now, we've been openly advocating that folks take action to become more prepared should crisis arrive. And for a long time, this advice relegated us to being labeled "tin-foil hat doomsday preppers" (and other less-polite monikers). The media just couldn't figure out any other box to put us in.
But now, the concept of taking at least some responsibility for your own future well-being by increasing your self-reliance is finally moving towards the mainstream.

Cash Ban Experiment
On November 8, India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi stunned the country with an announcement that 500-rupee ($7.30) and 1,000-rupee notes, which account for more than 85 percent of the money supply, would cease to be legal tender immediately.

The announcement set off days of turmoil as millions of Indians tried to swap their suddenly worthless old notes for hard-to-find new notes of 500 and 2Monday, November 28, 2016 |

Monetary Experiment Creating Mother Of All Crises: “Negative Rates Phenomenally Good for Gold and Silver” |
It is the silver and gold lining of the dismal and imploding economy.
The longer that central banks force negative interest rates – and wipe out the value of savings, pensions, and insurance accounts by denying them return on investment – the more attractive gold and other commodities become as a safe haven for maintaining flexibility.
Moreover, the closer the system comes to unraveling altogether, gold and silver remain attractive as a means of holding onto money with ready, liquid exchange valSaturday, September 3, 2016 |

Confusion Over Negative Interest Rates; What About Safekeeping Fees |
Several readers disagreed with my statement that “negative interest interest rates cannot occur naturally“.
Most of the disagreements involved “safekeeping”. Let’s take a look at one such comment along with my reply.
In response to Negative Interest Rates: Can They Ever Occur Naturally? What is the “Natural Rate”? Reader Thomas commented ….
I rarely disagree, but here I am. Safekeeping is an important function. Storage costs (for silver, not so much gold or fiat) can also be important. BitcoinFriday, August 12, 2016 |

Billionaires Are Wrong on Gold |
Recently the mainstream media has reported that several billionaires are concerned
about global financial markets and have purchased significant amounts of gold
to protect their portfolios.
Take Stan Druckenmiller, the famed hedge fund manager who managed money for George
Soros as the lead portfolio manager for Quantum Fund. He and Soros famously
'broke the Bank of
England' when they shorted the British pound
sterling in 1992, reputedly making more than $1 billion in profits.Friday, May 27, 2016 |
