Gold This Week
All aboard the Gold Express

It is crystal clear that the present trajectory of the US government is one which makes fiscal and financial collapse utterly inevitable. And because the rest of the world still relies on the US and its Dollar as the foundation of the global financial system, those clear eyed indivduals know that no nation will escape unscathed from a US financial meltdown, whatever its magnitude.

Is Mr Kerry expected to "solve" these problems? No, he isn't. But a new Administration would at least bring with it the possibility that the world will not be subjected to more of the same. And in addition, a repudiation of the Bush Administration on November 2 would send the rest of the world the message that the present US exectutive branch of government has NOT and is NOT acting in the name and with the approval of the American people.

For the third year in a row, the US government is up against its borrowing limits. And as each borrowing limit has been reached, the fiscal and financial condition of the US has worsened. It has NEVER been as bad as it is now, in the final throes of a US Presidential election. The only question left is whether the wheels will fall off before, or after, the US election.

That the wheels WILL fall off is certain. Are you READY for that? Yes, of course you should have minimal debt, Gold as financial insurance, and as little exposure as possible to paper assets, especially those denominated in US Dollars. But above and beyond all that, you need to be in the position where you acknowledge the gravity of the situation to yourself. That way, you will be neither surprised nor blindsided by inexorably coming events.

Financial debacles are just that, financial debacles. The world does not stop turning, nor does the sun stop shining. People still learn, teach, trade, work, create, and enjoy life. What is going to be sorely hit is not REAL wealth, but merely paper claims to real wealth. When you think about the coming FINANCIAL debacle, think about this. In times of financial strife, wealth returns to its rightful owners. The rightful owners of wealth - real, physical, existing, functioning producer and consumer goods and services - are the ones who create it - NOT the ones who "buy" it by issuing promises to pay which they have no intention of honouring.

From the editor of 321Gold.com

I suspect that popular opinion holds that the events of 1929-1933 occurred in a vacuum. One day we weren't in a depression, the next day we were. And no one noticed or wrote about what was going on. I really don't believe that's true. I think there probably were a lot of people thinking and writing who fully understood what was happening because they were reflecting on current events as it would affect them and their investments.

The same is true today. There are so many really wonderful minds thinking about what is going on and doing a great job of communicating both the problems and the solutions. At 321Gold, we are proud to offer the likes of Ian Gordon, Steve Saville, Richard Russell, Rick Ackerman, Frank Giustra, and Ed Bugos to our readers.

I have been following Bill Buckler for over a year now. We just got permission to post snippets of his work and you will be reading a lot more of what he has to say. He's simply brilliant and you owe it to yourself and the preservation of your wealth to at least try his service.

For a free trial of The Privateer go here.

Or for the Full Monty go here.

It costs about $8.50 a month and is worth every cent.
