| God Protect Us from Metaphors |
| A fallacy sometimes expands, and runs through the whole texture of a long and elaborate theory. More frequently, it shrinks and contracts, assumes the guise of a principle, and lurks in a word or a phrase.
"May God protect us from the devil and from metaphors!" was the exclamation of Paul-Louis.[1] And it is difficult to say which of them has done most mischief in this world of ours. The devil, you will say; for he has put the spirit of plunder into all our hearts. True, but he has left free theSaturday, October 17, 2020 |

| They will take everything if you don't stop them :Ten Things You Must Do To Defend Yourself
At first glance a statement like this brings up thoughts of the government coming for all freedom seeking people. In actuality this is about your neighbors and those in your community that will ruthlessly mob up and literally storm your own home for what you have after a long drawn out disaster, perhaps sooner.Saturday, June 27, 2020 |

 (-1780) Gold and Silver in the Code of Hammurabi |
| When Anu the Sublime, King of the Anunaki, and Bel, the lord of Heaven and earth, who decreed the fate of the land, assigned to Marduk, the over-ruling son of Ea, God of righteousness, dominion over earthly man, and made him great among the Igigi, they called Babylon by his illustrious name, made it great on earth, and founded an everlasting kingdom in it, whose foundations are laid so solidly as those of heaven and earth; then Anu and Bel called by name me, Hammurabi, the exalted prince, who feared God, to bring about the rule of righteousness in the land, to destroy the wicked and the evil-doers; so that the strong should not harm the weak; so that I should rule over the black-headed people like Shamash, and enlighten the land, to further the well-being of mankind.Wednesday, June 17, 2020 |

 Gold Silver Confiscation: Can the Government Seize Assets |
| One concern of retail precious metals investors is the possibility of a gold confiscation.Imagine having the forethought to buy gold to shield your finances from an economic or monetary crisis—only to have it taken away from you by your government. You’d lose not just the protective buffer you put in place but potentially a chunk of your net worth.Gold confiscation may sound preposterous to investors used to securities or real estate. But it’s happened in the past enough times to make it a reasoMonday, June 1, 2020 |

| Why Own Gold The Top 10 Reasons to Buy Gold Now |
| Is gold a good investment? Why should you own it?It’s natural and even prudent for an investor to wonder if a particular asset is a good investment or not. That’s especially true for gold, since it’s an inert metal and doesn’t earn any interest.But the reasons for owning physical gold go beyond the possibility of its price rising. Gold bullion offers distinct advantages that simply can’t be found in almost any other investment. These advantages give you power as an investor. And yes, one of thesMonday, May 18, 2020 |

| Most commentators on how Fiat money always reverts to its intrinsic value, (i.e. approaching the value of the paper it is printed on, or near zero), quote the german Papiermark, (observe the pictured 5 trillion bank note in this link) as a classic example of this phenomenon.Monday, April 20, 2020 |

| Riding the Current Wave in Bitcoin |
| In a move surprising to some, the SEC has announced that a number of cryptocurrency exchanges must register with the agency. Without naming names, the race has begun to determine if a specific platform meets the definitions put forward by the SEC. As our readers are aware, this is actually not surprising at all. In fact, it is only one small step in a broader trend recognizable in the Bitcoin market. How this specific event translates into the current trading conditions is what’s most interestinSaturday, March 10, 2018 |

| Earth’s Poles Show Signs Of FLIPPING: Widespread Grid Failures Imminent |
| Scientists from the University of Colorado in Boulder are sounding the alarm that the Earth’s magnetic poles are showing signs of reversing. Although the pole reversal, in and of itself, isn’t unprecedented, the solar winds that would take out the power grid and make parts of the globe uninhabitable could cause widespread disasters.
The Earth has a fierce molten core that generates a magnetic field capable of defending our planet against devastating solar winds. This magnetic field is vital toFriday, February 2, 2018 |

| Silver Created the Greatest Transfer of Wealth in History To-Date |
| The past few days I have been reminded of how important silver is to our world and how silver is the one asset the world needs in order to function to a high level. Actually, silver is necessary for our world to function at even the most basic level where power/energy/information is running through wires. Silver makes it possible.
With all these Western nations, basically, invading, destroying China were about silver. China was importing all the worlds silver even though they had no natural mineThursday, January 4, 2018 |

| Silver Rocks, Birds and Tyrants |
| It’s no secret I love the art of coins. I recently began collecting the “mini-mintages” Chris Duane and Silver Shield have been producing. I wish I had continued collecting these truly amazing coins.
It was the first round of Silver Shield medallions that really changed my mind about coin collecting, the art of coins and bars along with the delicate nature of the sculpture that makes up the coins impression. The art work that makes up the impression on coins can be breathtaking. The artists handWednesday, December 20, 2017 |

| Should I Buy “Collectible” Silver The 3 Criteria to Look For |
| We get the same question every time we release a new proprietary GoldSilver product: why should I buy your silver round instead of a standard bullion product like an Eagle?There are several answers to that question—they can be a great way to diversify, they’re unique in the marketplace, and they might reflect values that you share.But the biggest answer of all is this: because you might make a bigger profit.That’s a bold statement, because like most things in life, there are no guarantees.

| The dumbest investing idea you'll read before the next stockmarket crash...
SO LAST WEEK's LBMA conference in Barcelona coincided not only with the city's split over independence for Catalonia,
writes Adrian Ash at BullionVault.
It also saw the 30th anniversary of the 1987 stock market crash, the sharpest ever plunge in major world equities.

One of the world’s least known metals is also of great importance, and likely to become more so as renewable energies catch up with and possibly eclipse fossil fuels. Yet vanadium’s primary use as a steel alloy is set to keep prices buoyant and North American explorers racing to find a domestic source of the metal that was once used to make swords so strong and sharp the mere sight of them struck fear into the hearts of their enemies.

Last week, I got several calls asking me how U.S. tax reform will impact the price of gold. If you can answer this question, you might be able to answer how tax reform will impact other assets. Let me explain.
If you were to analyze the impact of any tax changes on any asset, you have two sets of dynamics to consider: those of the tax reform and thosWednesday, October 4, 2017 |
