Loving this series! It’s so confusing when to buy. I guess just buy once a month ish and dollar cost average. I do have food and water covered so that helps with inflation.

[@2is1gold]

[@drjones762]

Before you even think about precious metals, make sure you have your actual preps covered - food, water, guns and ammunition, etc. when I say water, I mean ways to collect, filter, purify, store and transport. Stockpiling physical water is not at all practical and it doesn’t last very long. After that just buy a tiny little bit of gold and silver every month. dollar cost average. do not obsess about price at the time. Otherwise, you will never end up buying because you’re always time trying to time the price….

@@drjones762 I love my Berkey!

[@edb3877]

@@drjones762 Agree but for this: "Stockpiling physical water is not at all practical and it doesn’t last very long." This depends on where one lives. It makes perfect sense in drier places but not so much in rainy places, such as the Pacific NW, where I live. Billions of tons of water fall from the sky every year, so it doesn't take long at all to replenish the water supply from rain catchment. Also agree that ways to filter and purify water could become critical, no matter where one lives because there can be a huge difference between finding water and finding water that one can drink safely.

100% spot on. Being a skilled arborist has its advantages when examining each branch of every tree in the forest. The only downside is there are a lot of species and even more branches. We can't avoid discussing politics when chatting about resources or gold as policy directly effect both. Unfortunately for us here in the U.S. the wheels were set in motion long ago and we have only one choice left, being reactive. We as a group examine policies and take action accordingly to lessen our downside exposure. There's no insulating oneself completely however we can certainly rely on a thermal blanket of gold in lieu of standing around a blazing refuse container. Cheers!

[@2is1gold]

US politics feels more akin to whether or not to drink a certain beer than to actual economic policy. 🙁

[@strykerentllc]

@@2is1gold Politics is a distraction; read noise. Policy should be the focal point. Gold > beer. Sometimes the two are intermingled as noted in the comment however they're distinctly differing points. Apology for using politics. Cheers!

My gosh!, As an early subscriber to your channel I can tell you that you’ve remained calm, concerted & collected in your analysis without any sensationalism whatsoever. Well balanced & socratic. You seem like a person that would be a very good friend to smoke cigars & drink some bourbon with while sitting around a robust fire.

Bought another ounce on Friday with the mini dip, waiting to see what the markets do tonight. 3 months ago 1 ounce gold bullion was $400 cheaper Than what I just payed. 3 months ago many were still waiting for the next dip before they bought again.

[@mattmatt6572]

Gold paper markets is being heavily shorted and is why it went down Friday. I'm waiting patiently and hoping it is going down farther

[@2is1gold]

I grabbed a series coin on that dip back the the 1900s too. Still waiting for something bigger. We shall see!

[@silver-en7kl]

@@2is1gold nice. I may jump back in tomorrow, if there’s even a small dip. I always think back to a few years ago when buffalos were $1700 and cheaper and I thought that was expensive. Of course there’s always Harry Dents promise of $800 gold……if we can find it at that point. Lol.

[@AllodialTitle]

I used to follow the debt clock for years. I even recorded the prices. At one point, gold was $35k and Silver was over $5k. But now they do not list the price. Maybe "They" don't want the people to know what is coming.

[@splocal]

This topic is going in the right direction. Would be nice to hear more about OPEC as well as the long historical trend of gold increasing in value while the dollar has decreased. A simple check on inflation of the US dollar shows a very concerning rate of devaluation. I think if you put it this way, is there a scenario where we see that trend reversing? With everything going on I can’t think of one that is likely. We can and will continue to try to slow that trend down but stopping or reversing it I just don’t see happening. Therefore moving wealth into gold will most likely continue to trend in the same direction it’s has over the last , 20, 40, 80 + years.

[@TerminalChill]

I believe that our priorities are completely out of whack in this country today. Say what you want about the previous administration but a tough on China policy was the right policy and instead of backing off that as we have with the current administration, we should have been doubling-down on it. I agree with you though, that the political divide is trumping what's best for our country (sorry no pun intended). Perhaps our politicians will finally get a real wake-up call when China launches their campaign against Taiwan, which unfortunately is probably sooner then we would like to think. I don't mean to make this political but it's hard to ignore the elephant in the room. As always, great content!

Hey man, your delivery is SOO smooth that it seems rehearsed, let alone scripted. Helluva good analysis on this rather complex subject of the BRICS attempt at creating their own currency.

Sure, they can trade currencies between each other but, China knows nobody else is really interested in that contrived alliance... or it would be BIGGER.

I watched a video on the belt and Road initiative a few years ago. The video was basically stating how it was not actually helping the economy of those local countries.

I don’t know. I have mixed feelings about the belt and Road initiative. These countries think that China is helping them, but the reality is China is taking control of these countries through it.
