WILL THE LAST ONE LEAVING
MINNESOTA TURN OUT THE LIGHTS

Here in Minnesota it’s May 3rd, and we are having another snow storm.  Since returning from Florida in early April we have had snow storms each week of 8, 10 and 11 inches.  It’s been so cold my wife has admonished me at least twice daily that we should have stayed in Florida longer.

Investing in Inflation

Will Rogers said, “Invest in inflation, it’s the only thing that is going up.” But how about
timing? The best way to invest in a trend is to get on board before it turns serious. We don’t have inflation yet, In fact, we are in a deflationary period. Prices are actually coming down, and things are relatively cheap. If you bet on inflation now, you are betting
on the future. Right now, gold and silver are actually defying deflationary trends and have been gradually creeping up. But they are still relatively cheap compared to what they will be. All socialist states end up producing hyperinflation and destroying their own currency, without exception. The way to make money is to get in early, before inflation starts to boom. Can you imagine how much gold and silver buying will soar when gold is over $1,000 and silver is over $25? That will happen to dumb investors. Gold is now $955 and silver a little over $14. Now is the time to buy and wait patiently.

No Change

A couple of emails from subscribers complained that I seem to be recommending the
same thing in every issue; that there is nothing new. That’s the nature of the game. I bet on long term trends, and we are in the middle of a long term trend. I could dig deep and try to find some hot stock to recommend every issue, but that’s not what I do. My position is the same for a new subscriber as for one who has been there for a few
years. Invest in future inflation. The best way to do that directly is by buying gold and silver now.
