Education is the key-- Applied Knowledge equals Wisdom!

 

My purpose here is primarily to educate you and anyone you refer to this web address.

Many people today are interesed in "making money" however very few understand what money is, and why it is so critical in today's world.

Did you know that in all of monetary history there have never been a fiat currency that has not failed? In other words we have an investment that is almost guaranteed-- that is that the current reserve currency of the world has the same destiny as all others before it.

 

Thoughts on Money, Metals and Mining 

The Art of Investing in the Resource Sector

Most investors, if they could, would only utilize investment strategies that could maximize their profit opportunities, minimize their risk and take very little time or effort. Call it human nature, call it wishful thinking, or call it pure fantasy. We all search for such a "dream" investment.

Everyone's heard of 20/20 hindsight. It's always easy to know, after the fact, what you should have been done in the beginning. Let's use a bit of hindsight here to see how a decade-long investing strategy could have been used to maximize one's investment returns.

If an investor, for example, had bought into the Japanese markets in the early 1980s, rode all of the ups and downs and then cashed-out in 1990, the investment gains could have been fantastic. That investor could have sold at the top of the Japanese craze, bought into technology stocks at just the right time in the early 1990s and, again, rode them all the way to the top in the year 2000. Again, the gains in that decade could have been truly spectacular.

Since early in the year 2000, I have been advocating a different decade-long investment strategy, one that I believe has the potential to produce even greater returns than the examples from the 1980s and 1990s that I used above. That strategy is to move largely out of paper assets . . . and into commodities. I believe that commodities are now in a bull market, and that this bull market could last ten years, and perhaps longer. I also believe that this opportunity is staring most investors in the face, but only a select few can see it . . . or believe it.
The commodity markets, and specifically the CRB Index, have outperformed both the stock and bond markets recently and, I believe, will continue to do so. This is an important shift to recognize, yet very few investors are aware that this fundamental change in the marketplace is taking place NOW!

Commodity investing, though, is difficult for many investors because they do not know how to participate. Our website shows you how!

The Money Metals - gold and silver - have been recognized as stores of value for thousands of years of human history. Gold has certainly done its job; it has preserved wealth for those that have invested assets in this metal. Gold has appreciated in U.S. Dollar terms roughly the amount the Dollar has declined. In other words, gold has maintained purchasing power!

But silver has offered far more since 2003 and we are just getting started!!
