01/11/22 - Inflation is here to stay. In fact, it has been aggressively growing over the last 12-18 months. Inflation has been growing much faster than rising wages, which can lead to the next recession. During this same stretch, rare coin prices have been going through the roof.

12/02/21 - Inflation is a by-product of a country's economic success. However, that success comes at a very high cost.

In a mere 50 after Nixon left the Bretton Woods system, which removed gold as the backing to the U.S. dollar, we are at a global debt of nearly $300 trillion dollars. In the next 4-9 years, global debt is projected to hit 2 quadrillion dollars. There is no way these debt levels are sustainable.

9/08/21 - 50 years ago, Richard Nixon destroyed the value of the United States dollar. On August 15, 1971, Nixon removed gold as the backing to the U.S. dollar. History has proven that in every society for the last 2,000 years, fiat currency has bankrupted once gold stopped backing paper money. After Nixon left the Bretton Woods system, gold went from $35 an ounce in 1971 to over $1800 today.
