Why You Should Buy Gold

By Garrett Strong

It is important to note several things if you are wondering how to buy gold. First, as governments over print paper currencies around the world, we are all losing value by holding dollars. Second, we are experiencing criminal activity on Wall Street, and the manipulation of gold prices by our government to help sustain the dollar.

Gold should be at the top of all investors lists right now. Just 8 years ago the gold price was at about $250/ounce. That price has steadily risen to over $1,100/ounce. For a one ounce gold coin there has been an increase of 400% in value. Are there any other investments out there making those returns, while at the same time being a hedge against inflation?

If you are going to argue that your paper investments (i.e. stocks, bonds, derivatives) made 400% returns, then you obviously aren't factoring in the falling dollar. Even though the Dow Jones is showing noticeable increases, it is quietly crashing under our noses and most people aren't even aware of it.

You might be asking how the Dow could possibly be doing bad, but price it in gold and you will see. Even if the Dow got as high as 20,000 or higher, the value of your dollars would be crashing at a greater rate.

As the USDX falls below 76, there is suddenly the realization that the dollar will certainly be in trouble through the coming years. For those invested in dollar related assets it is time to get out. The USDX will most certainly fall to 65 next year like many economists are saying. Many experts believe that it will go as low as 40 in the next couple of years.

In a real life situation like this, there is only one safe have. Gold and silver are that safe haven. It is not a question of if the dollar will be knocked off the thrown as the reserve currency, but rather when.

We are smack dab in the middle of the greatest bull market in history. Never before have there been so many fiat paper currencies in the world, while at the same time governments inflating all of them in the middle of an economic storm like we are seeing.

A $7,000 gold price is not out of the question over the next few years. Some economists believe it has to go this high to compensate for inflation. The dollar is only being propped up by our faith in it, and that is why our government doesn't want you buying gold.

Inform yourself about gold bullion and silver bullion before the real rush comes into gold. If you cannot afford silver bars or gold bars, then look to buy American silver eagle coins or American gold eagle coins.

God bless. - 30294
