We were enjoying a wonderful dinner, the four of us engaged in a lively discussion. Then, one voice was raised above the others as he said, “I am absolutely shocked that the U.S. has lost its AAA rating and been downgraded. Especially since Great Britain, Hong Kong, Germany, and several other countries still have an AAA rating.”
At that point I had no intention of writing another article about this topic. But I feel compelled to, given how important it is and how many people ask me about this.
I immediately sensed his incredulity, and what I suspect was a healthy measure of fear. After all, never before in our country’s history has this befallen us. Despite wars, the Depression, recessions and Black Monday, the Savings and Loan crisis, even the September 11, 2001 attacks; we’ve never seen the S & P downgrade U.S government bonds.
As my friend was speaking, I thought to myself that he has been listening to the wrong pundits, reading the wrong material, and relying on the misinformation of our leaders. Indeed the majority of folks are doing this. After all, what are the alternatives? Where can one obtain clear information and an unbiased perspective which isn’t fraught with political spin?
The Fed chairman and Treasury Secretary have said this wouldn’t happen, but it has. The news reports that we are seeing a slow recovery, yet what we are seeing is anything but. The economy continues to slow, as home foreclosures continue to escalate; unemployment remains high as the banking industry continues to slump; and the Fed continues to insure the decline of the dollar.
I wasn’t shocked; I wasn’t surprised; I was only saddened that what I had been expecting has now happened.
If the loss of the United States’ triple-A rating was a surprise to you, then you’ve been listening to and believing the wrong voices. If you’re buying the spin of the mainstream media, then you’re being sold down the river. What you need to be buying is gold and silver. These precious metals are your best hedge against the coming increased inflation. Gold and silver are a true hedge to stay afloat during the turbulent times ahead.
The financial education we all need today is a few tributaries off the mainstream. Because this isn’t our fathers’ world any more. Unfortunately, if we are to be completely honest, our financial system is: b-r-o-k-e-n. Period. Do you really believe that this, or any, Administration is going to stop spending money it doesn’t have? Do you really think the Fed is going to stop printing money that isn’t backed by anything? The United States was taken off the “gold standard” in 1971. Do you know what that means? Every currency around the globe is a fiat currency. And there is no possible way our national debt will ever be repaid.
There are a few experts who have been educating and empowering us so that we can not only prepare and protect ourselves and our families, but also profit from the economic events which are unfolding.
Teaching us how to eliminate debt, build wealth and protect our assets through clear and critical financial education which is free of conflicts of interest and imbued with integrity. To learn more, please visit http://www.wealthwithheart.net
“Forewarned forearmed.” This famous quote by Cervantes couldn’t be more timely. If you were shocked or even at all surprised by the news of the loss of the United States’ triple-A rating, you would be well-served to watch the video, “Why You Need to Invest in Gold and Silver.” http://www.wealthwithheart.net/gold-and-silver
Below the video is a link which says Buy Gold and Silver. There is no obligation to buy anything, and it has lots of information.
You may click on the Buy link to reach the site of Mike Maloney, a world-renowned expert, whose site is full of information, articles, videos, charts and graphs. There is no obligation, and the education is first-rate.
However, if you are at a point where you realize you need to protect and position yourself, you certainly may purchase gold and/or silver here. I became an affiliate of Mike’s because I heard him speak at several WMI conferences, here and abroad.
At first I simply became a customer. Then, as I watched my holdings increase in value, and continued to learn, it became apparent to me that everyone needs to understand and avail themselves of the opportunity to acquire these sound precious metals from a trusted, knowledgeable company.
Recently, more and more people have asked me just how one goes about purchasing gold and silver through the well-respected expert I represent, who is also Robert T. Kiyosaki’s personal precious metals advisor. Kiyosaki you may recall is the author of the powerful book, “Rich Dad, Poor Dad.”
Because of these repeated requests, I offer a brief explanation below. You may also contact me if you have questions.
•Visit Mike’s web site: click on http://www.wealthwithheart.net/gold-and-silver, then SCROLL down to the bottom of the page & click on the Icon Banner
•You will see on the top Navigation Bar: “Buy Gold & Silver” which has a drop down menu.
•Select: “View All Products.”
•I recommend one ounce silver coins and one ounce gold bars.
•So you can look at Liberty Silver Rounds, for example.
•Click on there; enter your order quantity, example 500
•Click on Update Order form at Check Out and follow the instructions. You will be asked to fill in your credit card information, for a small deposit, to secure your order and lock in your price. Then you will be given clear instructions on how to do a wire transfer at your bank to pay for the balance. Your order will be sent to you by Certified mail and you will sign for and pick it up at your local Post Office.
There is an Order Help section, an FAQ section, a phone number to speak to a sales representative if you like. Please be sure to use the coupon code: 1090 Gold & Silver Now, on the form or if you speak to a representative.
If you are hesitant because the price has gone up from when you first started thinking about it, remember that it is projected to go much, much, much higher. Watch the educational videos in order to see Mike’s projections, and the data on which he bases his conclusions. The longer you wait, the more you will pay.
To quote Cervantes once again, “Good wits jump; a word to the wise is enough.” Please know that I want you to be forewarned and wise, not shocked or surprised.
