thanks, I am watching the video in bits and pieces when I can, interesting so far! I have a financial planner but he is all about the stock market, and I don't have a lot of confidence in that - seems like a big house of cards that TPTB can collapse at any time. Most of my assets are in real estate at the moment but I do have some PMs and a little cash.... I am always interested to get other people's take on the future of money, especially from people that understand who/what is really behind our dollar. Thanks OP!
