I have to give credit to my friend Steven for opening up my eyes to the idea investing in precious metals. The book this week was Guide to Investing in Gold and Silver by Michael Maloney. This book was brilliantly written and all the historical concepts really backup the main point of the book perfectly. I look around and I see the signs.... [...]... or send us your gold... or some people just buying up gold out of the laundromat. There is writing all over the walls, and it's up to you to read it. There are a lot of people out there that are catching on to the fact that something is going to happen with the price of gold and silver soon and if you are smart you will get on board to make some money for yourself too. The book is all about why it's a great idea to invest in gold and silver and how to do it effectively. The book is broken up into 4 portions: Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow, and How to Invest in Precious Metals. The first half of the book walks the reader through the history of gold and silver being used as currency and the value in relation to fiat money. The point that is very eloquently laid out is that gold and silver always win. Historically, it can be traced back to Athen's... nearly the same concepts were put into practice regarding currency as they are today. The great thing about the timing of this book is that we are in the midst of the next great rise in precious metals. The U.S. government just injected trillions of [...] into the economy... this causes inflation, which Maloney refers to as a "stealth tax, " and devalues all the dollars are already in circulation. What is great about gold and silver is they aren't effected by inflation. The trend of gold is steady and that is why it has been used as a shield to inflation for so many years. Maloney expects gold and silver prices to skyrocket soon. There are several different fuses explained in the book that will ignite the value of gold and silver. Honestly, I don't think there is any downside to owning at least a little gold and silver... Trending shows that the prices are steadily rising, so the worst that could happen is you shield yourself from the excessive inflation we are going to incur and the best that could happen is hyperinflation and the ability to cash in your commodity for big bucks. I am not trying to make light of a serious situation, I am just trying to advise you to guard yourself. The wealth transfer during a hyperinflation will be incredible, so it would be wise for you to be prepared. [...] Maloney's website is [...] I really do hope you become interested gold and silver investing because of all the investment advise I have written about this one doesn't appear to have a clear downside. I recommend you read this book or at a bare minimum check out his website. If you have any questions on the book don't hesitate to ask. I would be more than happy to help anyone that needs it. [...]

Must Read for preparing financially for the Future by Bob E. Peaster (Texas)

Michael Maloney does a great job challenging the reader to be prepared for the "financial shock of the future". I appreciate how he has backed up much of what he sees coming with the concise historical data of what has been true of gold and silver. He is very convincing and informative regarding how one should prepare. I felt too that he is very sincere in his wanting people to be better informed and knowledgeable so that the reader can and will take the time to make better decisions for whatever the future may hold. That future doesn't look good at all for the dollar. This book is a must read for anyone who wants a better understanding of the importance of Gold & Silver in their investments for the future.

Great information by L. Brewer (Colorado)

I found this book to be very informative and eye-opening. I don't remember much of my history and economics from school, and this book gave great insight to today's financial situations. There is a good review of economic history in here to give the premise of the book a foundation. I greatly enjoyed that part of it. The information on purchasing gold and silver was concise and understandable. I felt this book really helped me to know how to prepare for the future.
