Very interesting video interview with Jim Rogers doing a question and answer session with Lew Rockwell and Ludwig von Mises Institute members in Alabama. The video is rather long but well worth your time. Here’s a chronological list of all the subjects Jim Rogers addressed:

  • Protecting yourself with sound currencies and hard assets / real assets
  • Learn from history
  • Rice, Silver, Gold, Farmland, Timberland, Bonds, Paper Money
  • Why he moved to Singapore —> Education + Learning Mandarin
  • Debtor nations vs. creditor nations
  • Conventional wisdom
  • The US going the same way as the UK when it was an Empire
  • Leaving the US and seeking opportunity elsewhere
  • Why children in the 21 st century must learn at least a second language
  • Giving up American citizenship and implications on paying taxes
  • Rare Earths and China
  • Austrian Economics
  • Brazil and its natural resources
  • European Union and the likelihood of EURO disintegration
  • Canada will do better than the US
  • Renminbi might replace the US Dollar as reserve currency
  • Ben Bernanke monetizing debt
  • Fort Knox and the Fed should be audited

Once the video starts playing change the settings to watch in HD quality. Enjoy!

090-1008121154-dollar-meltdownI had the pleasure of reading a final finished copy of The Dollar Meltdown by Charles Goyette.

Congressman Ron Paul offers an opinion on the front cover to which I certainly concur: “Goyette does a great job explaining why America faces a looming financial crisis and outlines commonsense strategies for individuals to protect themselves and their families. This book truly is a must read.”

Before publication, I read a preliminary copy which explains this quote on the back jacket “The Dollar Meltdown is the definitive guide to where we are, how we got here, and what the best investment opportunities are looking ahead, regardless of one’s personal views on the raging inflation/deflation debate”

Others on the back jacket endorsing the book include Jim Rogers, Lew Rockwell, and Peter Schiff.

Step by step Goyette outlines Where we are, How we got here, and What to do. The book is a nice blend of facts, humor, and practicality. It is easy reading and very difficult to put down. (more…)
