  • The $USD is a terribly flawed currency
  • There are so many pessimist, their is the possibility of a rally
  • If the $USD is replaced as a reserve currency, most likely it will be the Euro
  • The Chinese are going to be forced more and more to open up their currency
  • Commodities are not in a bubble, yet
  • We have a catastrophe coming in oil and is surprised oil is not higher
  • Wouldn't buy Gold right now,but would if it goes down
  • Gold will double in the next several years
  • You might make more money in Silver than Gold.
  • The idea that you can solve a crisis of debt and consumption with more debt and consumption is absurd
  • You can solve the problem by letting people go bankrupt, and restart from point zero.
