Its coming in more ways than one...Anyone been following the gold price lately. Its now the highest it has ever been in Canadian dollars. Not the highest in American dollars but its getting there. https://www.goldbroker.com/charts/gold-price/cad
Silver is still reasonably priced in my opinion, but starting to climb. If I could, I would throw a few dollars at silver but my funds are now spoken for with the other valuable metal, Lithium. True story, the year was the late 80's whatever year that stock market crash was. I had been saving to buy my first property and the market crash spoked me so bad I left work headed strait down town and immediately bought 12 oz of gold, Gold maple leaf's. I may have also stopped by my favorite gun stores and stocked up on other products that day, its to far back for me to remember for sure, but the gold I do remember because its not every day you do something like that.( no I don't have that gold today)
Edit: Just adding because while not directly related to gold price it is related to dollar values, and I do like his perspective. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_teOpFO0m8
Sadly this Michael Hudson guy gets little views, less than 100 on this vid, but he nails it.
Give a man a gun, and he can rob a bank. Give a man a bank, and he can rob the world.
It certainly looks like things are moving faster. Stock market is up and down like a public toilet seat, national divisions coming out of the closet and being deliberately stoked.
People have little conventional choice in earning interest on investment. Either your in the stock market and everything that this carries in risk or your into gold or things like land, food and other personal consumables or means of self sufficiency.
I like gold but even there, the value is arbitrary. It’s make believe like other currencies and will only depend on what the powers at be, place upon it. Good land is nice to have but as we all know from sore bones and muscles, age....... it too takes a serious investment to make it pay off.
For those of us on this board who wish t9 hedge our bets, I think the time has come to either keep going on the solid plans we have in place or for those starting out, to take stock of what we should be doing to improve our odds of full or partial self sufficiency. All with the financial resources, locations, jobs, family or health challenges we all face.
It’s never to late to start and every little bit can and will help. With the possible impact of our friends in the US ordering in medicines from Canada, I would highly encourage looking at obtaining the maximum one can obtain and beefing up personal inventory. By the time the idiots in government figure out what to do, shortages could be in play and then what.
Best of luck to all
