This struck me as good advice... (sarcasm)
"Gold may fall in value, so no more than 5% of your money in gold - better yet, keep it in the bank in an FDIC insured account".
I'm really just sitting back, on one hand feeling sorry for those being sucked in by this crap, on the other hand, waiting for the impending train wreck, followed by wailing and gnashing of teeth (I'm not madly religious, but I reckon the Bible got that bit right - there's gonna be a hella wailing when this whole shebang goes pop).

Assuming the whole basis of the scam was to prise assets of real value from the population and convert them to paper (fiat) its not surprising that even now FA's all across the World are still recommending pm ETF's to clients... Pity the poor suckers... Whilst all the big banks are currently playing hide the phys under coconut shells... Like I said earlier today just 100,000 contracts traded daily in paper is more physical silver than exists, refined & above ground... When WILL the sheeple wake up, and when WILL these products be banned? The answer is probably never because the Morgue would bring down the US$... So the crooksters remain, at least temporarily, out of reach... They think...

TheEnd said:Thanks Pm ....... I used to spend my time on car forums..... Now my time is spent following something so big, it's hard to explain to 'the sheeple'..... The worst part for me at the moment is my other half is not allowing me to invest my money in PM's because we are right in the middle of house selling/buying and my deposit needs to used for that...... I keep telling her sooooo much is at stake and we need to prepare ourselves for the biggest shock many have never seen or think is possible.... Anyways, most of time will be spent on this forum now!
I could believe that, and it makes sense - I don't know numbers off the top of my head, but a huge amount of debt is accumulated on credit cards over that time period, I'm sure.geewiz said:Celente believes that the big meltdown will happen just after Christmas. His reasoning is that they wanna get everyone suckered into maxing out their credit cards before all hell breaks loose.

Midnight Man said:Only question is, if all goes to hell in a handbasket, and there's a "debt forgiveness" (or jubilee, as I think it may be called?), would that not actually "help" people, rather than hinder them (assuming the "big picture plan" is to make everyone poor etc)?
I like it better the other options put forward, BTW i get this "This video is private.Clawhammer said:Steve Keen is starting to formulate how a national Debt Jubilee would work so that it wouldn't penalise the savers.
the way i understand it is, everyone gets a (Rudd Style) cash handout... only those with debt could not spend it...it has to go to paying off their debt.

sorry 'bout that!
Good point Black Sheep, and something I hadn't stopped to consider until now - thank you!BlackSheep said:My gut feel is that if there were to be a debt jubilee it would apply to debt between nations and not us little people - TBH if it did apply to everyone I'd be pi$$ed off that I could have been living high on the hog instead of scrimping and saving all these years!:lol:
Given that you're a bit stuck, Clawhammer, I had a bit of a hunt around... I think I've found the video you're referring to here (just to save others from Googling etc, thank you to Clawhammer for finding this!): http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/hardtalk/9641873.stmClawhammer said:The video might be available on Steve Keen's Debtwatch site...but I'm blocked from it here at work!
