Inflation Hedge Super Duo: Precious Metals and Practical Skills

Inflation Hedge Super Duo Precious Metals and
Practical Skills

Food prices are on the rise along with all
commodities. The reason is simple, natural
resources are finite and the currency pigs in
government
3
and central banking, like Ben Bernanke, can print
money ad infinitum. Simple. Add in hoards of
other distortions in our government-directed
4
over-regulated markets and we have some
interesting situations. So, whats one to do?
Learn how to lower your cost of living as fast as
you can,
5
through practical skills, or face extraordinary
expenses in food and energy. Thats the first
thing. Then, take your savings, like the U.S.
dollar
6
and all U.S. dollar denominated bonds, and buy
gold and silver. Otherwise, youre going to be
screwed!
7
Seriously, sell bonds. Bill Grosse, Chief of
Pimco, the worlds largest bond fund, is said to
be 100 out of U.S. treasuries. Hold your savings
in precious metals
8
and maybe some solid conservative currencies like
Canadian Dollars or Swiss Francs or Norwegian
Krone.
9
I am not saying these things are cheap, they are
not, but the bonds and U.S. dollars face certain
doom. Batten down the hatches.
10
As far as practical skills, one needs to develop
skills that save him or her a buck. Shave your
spending wherever you can.
11
The Japanese are a prime example of a practically
skilled population. Their government has done
everything in its power to destroy their economy
and
12
they keep on keeping on, saving saving saving,
month after month, and theyre wages are lower
than in the west. Not only do
13
They have to contend with lower wages, they pay
very high prices for energy and transportation
and they have numerous expensive government cash
grabs.
14
The average Japanese you meet on the street is
skilled. Cooking, sewing, auto repair and auto
optimization, gardening, cleaning, basic home
repair,
15
how to build water and energy optimization
systems, self-defence and home cures are all
practical skills and knowledge that can reduce
your cost of living dramatically,
16
So you save more money, or have more money for
things you wish to buy. Parents retirement
planning should include raising practically
skilled children!
17
It only makes sense. You bring them into the
world and raise them with your labour and love
and you form a relationship that lasts into your
declining years, when you may want to call in a
favour or two.
18
Anyway, get down to learning something useful for
your own good because these prices are on the
rise and the shit has hit the fan!
