Buy Gold Bullion

Gold is the only "true" money. It can't be printed. If you have doubts in the stock market buy gold. Bonds are a safe bet, right? But if you have doubts the debtors are going to pay this money back buy gold. There are many reasons why this precious metal will be worth more American dollars in the future, making it a good investment or at a minimum a safer place to be (financially).

I don't know that investing is what most are thinking about now as our 401K statements and RRSPs are a shadow of there former self.

US National Debt Clock

the spending & printing of money is out of control!

US National Debt

According to the US National Debt Clock, the public debt of the US is over $15 trillion dollars (that's 12 zeros!) and each citizen's share is almost $50,000! Can you afford that?

In 2016 the clock calculates $21 trillion dollars in debt...that's $66,000 each!

Since this lens was created (Nov 2009) the US National Debt Clock has added $4+ trillion dollars to the debt and thousands to each citizen's share...YOUR share! When is it going to stop?

2012: 15 Trillion
2009: 11 Trillion
2008: 9 Trillion

Scrap Gold For Sale

Buy Scrap Gold

Buy when others are buying...sell when they are selling (or in other words; when you see "Gold for Sale" commercials...right now they all want to buy gold, right?!) Paper money that can be printed like a photocopier with a stuck print button HAS to loose value! The only way to get more gold is to dig it out of the ground...you can't "copy" it.

A few reasons to buy gold now

before it's too expensive...

1. Printing all this paper money (850 billion dollars) dilutes the value of the current money supply in circulation. Printing so much of it pushes the value down further.

For more information and good books on the subject visit: www.mises.org

2. Most people will buy gold in times of trouble increasing the demand.

3. There are some that think a return to the gold standard is coming.
Can you imagine how much gold will have to be mined just to cover the
850 billion dollars President Obama promised his 1st month in office?

4. The price of gold is being manipulated to keep it's price low! All central banks around the world are dis-hording their gold reserves. When these banks have no more gold to sell, supply will be greatly reduced...again pushing up the price.

You can buy gold bullion coins at your local bank or on ebay.
Buy an ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) or gold mining stocks inside your 401K.

Going up!!!!

blue22d predicts:

It is a 960.6 as of 8/6/09. I believe it will go over 1500.

predicts:

Let's see, gold was $325 when I first started taking notice of it. Now, it's around $930. The dollar is devaluing every day. I'd say gold it's a sure bet! Now, how much of my hard earned worthless paper is it gonna take to trade for it?

clembob predicts:

Yes, I think the prices of both silver and gold will be going up over the next few years.

    We even have these gold buying ads on TV in France. They do prey on people getting desperate and thinking "hey gold is so high now I can get a nice amount of money". Gold has never been so high! Not a good time to buy, but good time to sell if you need quick cash...just avoid selling to those TV ads companies!

    That's why you see all those "gold buying" commercials right now. Every day now there is some commercial from Gold Buyers on TV. I'm definitely going to buy gold now while the cost is low. Thanks for the information! 5*****
