Over the past five years gold has succeeded to outperform the S&P by a long shot. The biggest reason for S&P's decline in value, measured by it's worth in currency or dollars is because the green back itself is not real money.

It's important to note, smart people have been collecting gold. Regardless if these people have collected gold for the long-term or are just now starting. These investors all have the same philosophy. Hang on to your gold, keep collecting it and do not sell an ounce. Because at some point gold's value will exceed rising inflation and save you. What the government has done of course in its attempts to shore up falling home prices within American is actually destroying the dollar and increasing gold's value…

All of the gold held by central banks throughout the west, originally, was owned by the people. Slowly this gold has been siphoned away from the people by the central bankers through inflation. However now, even these giant banks in the west are losing their gold as it slowly is being transferred to the east.

The gold stored in these central banks was at one time used to back all western currencies. However the sole purpose for gold being held in western banks today is for repayment of debt. History shows us that approximately every 30 to 40 years the world creates a new monetary system. Previous monetary systems continually have failed due to poor fiscal policy, planning and manipulations. Before WWI most countries kept a specific amount of gold in their treasuries. The treasuries would then issue out currency notes into circulation in amounts that equaled the equivalent value of…

The US dollar being the world’s reserve currency where other central banks have taken comfort for decades, now is fundamentally broke. The world’s reserve currency is now broke because of the accumulated American debt that can no longer be controlled.

These days the politicians elected into government and tasked with responsible policy making, don't have the political will do right thing. They refuse to turn things around, to stop the slow train wreck that's approaching. Some believe this slow train wreck will arrive sometime around 2015. This train has been built upon the tracks of circumstance, with decisions that were created re-actively, thus now it's running out of control…

95 percent of all the gold ever mined is still in existence today in one form or another. On the other hand 95 percent or more of the silver that has ever been mined to date, has either been used or destroyed in small quantities, for many industrial and technological applications. So the majority of it is gone forever.

While the élite and the central bank’s own tons of gold bullion, it's interesting to note that they hold no physical silver. Physical silver is cheaper than physical gold. Therefore the average person could without much thought, buy an ounce or two at any time without hurting their wallets or upsetting their budgets. On the other hand…

As far back as the Romans and Greeks, cultures have engaged in deficit spending. These societies have always engaged in large scale wars, as their nations expanded into empires. Major drawbacks to economies or empires include the high costs to engage in these wars. Throughout history these wars have always been funded through too much government deficit spending. At the end, empires always collapse from too much debt. It is at this point where very large scale wealth transfers will occur, to those that are positioned correctly.

What is currently being done today to the US dollar greatly impacts it negatively. Which in-turn is negatively impacting every fiat currency in the world. Sadly today there is no culture, country or currency that is safe from the negative effects of the dollar. Basically stated, if the world's reserve currency is sick and catches a cold it will become contagious…

Currency has been around in various paper forms throughout societies for generations. People use it every day. But how many people really know what the difference is between paper currency and money?

Currency has been defined as a circulating medium of exchange, used as an intermediary in trade to avoid the use of a barter system. The benefits and usefulness of currencies include; being a unit of account, or standard measurement of value. Other key factors include; durability, divisibility, ease of transportation and being …

The latest analysis involving of central bank reserve managers shows a major modification within their “official” reserve holdings. It appears this major modification extends well into the next decade. The change is a deliberate increase of gold accumulation within the holdings of central banks.

Currently were already seeing central banks acquiring larger amounts of gold bullion. Gold bullion reserves that were reported have surpassed 439.7 tons last year. This is seen as the largest annual increase in nearly 50 years, which does not include any major un-reported purchases during this time. It is well-known that many central banks have snapped up tonnage when market prices are at near bottoms on market corrections...

The current monetary system that’s in place is corruptly managed by the greed, power and deception of the world banks and those who run them. Weekly news comes out of illegal bank practices and fraud, its mainstream news anymore. A quick example would be the latest scandal involving LIBOR. It is apparent today that the more reliable an institution is, the bigger the fraud. Libor was the benchmark for loans into the trillions of dollars, for decades.

Libor’s assets are believed to have been connected to transactions globally in the forms of personal, small business and mortgage loans in excess of $500 trillion dollars. Libor was key in the setting of global interest rates. To date the Libor scandal could be the biggest of its kind in history...

There has been a huge cover-up in the price of gold. This price suppression has been going on for years. Central banks have been at the center of this manipulation and the evidence can be found in the commodities and future trading commission reports. Mr. Theodore Butler with due diligence is the main person responsible for following the long chain of events that finally led to the discovery of these price manipulations and cover-ups by central bankers for years.

Legal Practice of Leasing Out Precious Metals

Before the central banks entered into this leasing game, the leasing or swapping of precious metals from one mine to another was used when production for whatever reason was stopped. Because mines sell future contracts during production, during a shutdown they would be on the hook for…

The dynamics of the current precious metals bull market today is totally different than the previous bull market of the 1980’s. This time around the bull market has gone global.

During the early 1980’s who were the people responsible for driving up gold’s price to $850.00 and silver’s price to $50.00? During this time the only real players in these markets were North America and Western Europe. Both U.S.S.R. and Eastern Europe at that time had very unstable economies therefore it was pretty much impossible for any of their citizens to participate in purchasing any precious metal for investment.

Furthermore China, India, South America and Mexico being for the most part, farming countries had no wealth amongst their citizens to buy precious metals either. Even if there were people around lucky enough to have some money for investing there were no exchanges around in those days for any trading to take place…

Recent events have occurred that put at risk the existence of the US dollar and all other fiat currencies. There are two main gold depositories in the world that hold or have held most of the world’s bullion for the countries that don’t hold their own. They are the Bank of England and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

The first event occurred in early 2011 when Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez announced that Venezuela was taking back all the country’s gold bullion held at the Bank of England. While announcing this, construction was already underway to construct vaults at home for storing Venezuela’s 200 plus tons of bullion…

The world is currently in the middle of this century’s biggest bull market to date. Unlike the last great bull market for gold and silver in the 1970’s, this time, investors from the four corners of the world will have a chance to take part in the investment opportunity of a lifetime.

During the last great gold rush in the late 1970’s, only investors from the United States and the better part of Western Europe were able to participate. That was because back then, most other nations did not allow physical ownership of gold as it was either illegal to own, not available for investment or not in public demand. Many of the world’s countries including Russia, Eastern Europe, China and India, as well as all other Asian nations, South America and Mexico were incapable of …

The entire system is un-sustainable and economies are going to collapse. At this point in time surely before the end of this decade if not sooner, the greatest wealth transfer in history will take place. That also means the greatest time for opportunity, is to react now.

Assuring you against either a deflationary collapse or hyperinflationary destruction of paper currency. These precious metals are absolutely vital to your financial survival. Below are several facts necessary to understand first, so you will know why precious metals are still very much undervalued…

Sound money should be the only acceptable means of payment or credit used during these insane times when all major countries are fighting to survive with “record setting” government debts. Governments must all revert back to a sound money system to regain fiscal control over their spending habits or face losing everything.

Money – The Beginning
In the distant past, man used bartering and trading as acceptable forms of payment for goods and services. Many items traded included sea shells, salt, tobacco, herd animals, beaded belts, gem stones and gold. This worked well at the time, however there needed to be a better more convenient way to make transactions.
Coins became the first answer to make the exchange of goods and services more convenient. In 600 B.C. the first minted coins appeared, they were minted from an alloy called electrum. This was a combination of gold and silver. Each coin had a specific weight of 4.7 grams and acted as a medium of exchange, division of payment and was also capable of maintaining its value. From the time coins were first minted they gained popularity becoming the best form of money all the way into modern times.

What is Sound Money
In 400 B.C. Aristotle defined what sound money was and what characteristics were necessary to insure sound money. He said that sound money must incorporate all 7 of the following properties…

Like many others, I was educated in the US public school system. It seems however, one very important subject had never purposely been taught in our schools. That subject being the history of money and attainment of wealth.
The biggest reason public educators never approached this subject was that monetary history was taught privately and only to the elite one percent of the world’s society. Meaning only the ultra rich were privy to this closely guarded information. The other 99% of us were basically “shit out of luck”. Monetary history and wealth generation were spoon fed to the elite one percent. Once they entered society they used this valuable information strictly to their advantage, allowing them to earn 90% of the total wealth generated on the planet…

There are two schools of thought as to why gold has been rising and catching the interest of hedge funds and investors alike. First, interest rates that have been at negative levels. Secondly, gold that maintains its true value over fiat currency. The faster fiat currency is produced, i.e. US dollars, euros, British pounds or the Japanese yen, the faster and deeper deflation will set in.

We are currently living in very unstable, faltering, unprecedented times. The continuous uprisings and unrest in Greece over currency devaluation have motivated and created fear. It’s expected that people will again turn towards the one thing that has stood the test of time, an element, which will not only to increase their wealth but also to protect it.

Analysts suggest a state of deflation which will cause a double dip recession to form within the months to come…

For decades now, the world has been partying wildly, while drinking from the proverbial punch bowl of good times. Ever since the gold window was closed by President Nixon in 1971 governments have increasingly relied upon deficit spending and avoided any real attempts to pay it back. As the saying goes “sooner or later you have to pay the piper”. Sadly, the only forms of payment that have ever been paid towards all of these national debts, has been with fiat currency. In essence, more borrowed money.

The politicians want your votes and they want to keep their cushy jobs full of perks for an eternity. The only way they can guarantee their own job security is to promise the populous everything and constantly go on a deficit spending spree to pay for it. If you’re happy, they remain in their cushy jobs and the cycle just keeps repeating each election year. The Fed is obligated to the politicians; they insure an unlimited supply of fiat currency is available for the politicians to fund all the government programs and handouts…
