00:15:14.000 You know, someone that's been watching money for a long time, where money's going, what's changing.

00:15:19.000 Own a lot of investments, similar, you know, real estate, different things.

00:15:22.000 So hopefully we'll get into some fun stuff today and break down what's really going on behind the scenes in the economy.

00:15:28.000 Awesome.

00:15:29.000 And guys, this is live.

00:15:30.000 This is not pre-recorded, chat.

00:15:32.000 So you guys can go ahead and get your questions in.

00:15:34.000 Please get your questions, actually, because you have someone here that can absolutely help you guys when it comes to precious metals and alternative investments.

00:15:41.000 You guys know I'm really heavy into real estate, which, you know, actually perfectly segues into the first thing we're going to talk about, which is the housing market, right?

00:15:49.000 Khan, you want to kind of take that and you guys get your questions and we'll answer them as the show goes through.

00:15:54.000 Yeah, you know, for someone that, I was in commercial real estate for many years, owned a lot of real estate, you know, it's something I'm looking at.

00:16:03.000 I believe in tangible investments.

00:16:05.000 That's basically what I've built my wealth on is precious metals and real estate.

00:16:11.000 And the market is just, for the last few years, I've just been watching it so closely just to see if there's any, And it just seems, and I'm sure you talk about this a lot, is it doesn't seem like there's any opportunity for young people today.

00:16:29.000 I mean, this Apollo Group report that just came out is quite telling.

00:16:34.000 And, you know, you just got to look at the stats.

00:16:36.000 The average first-time homebuyer is 38 years old today.

00:16:42.000 Used to be 30 years old.

00:16:44.000 Back in the 80s, in the 60s and 70s, it was younger.

00:16:48.000 It just keeps getting older and older because it becomes more and more difficult.

00:16:53.000 And then the median age, so this is not the first-time buyer, but just the average age buyer of a home today, 56 years old.

00:17:02.000 So if that doesn't tell you what is wrong with what's going on today, I don't know if there's any other stat that could lead you to that.

00:17:13.000 It's becoming so difficult.

00:17:15.000 And unless you have family money or inherited or somehow you've come into a lot of wealth, the American dream is becoming much more unattainable.

00:17:25.000 And from an investment point of view, I don't even think if you could at this point, I don't even know if it makes sense to buy it.

00:17:33.000 Because I do believe based on the numbers that I'm looking at that we're going to see a massive correction in the housing market.

00:17:41.000 I think we're going to see some pretty big numbers pulling back.

00:17:44.000 And I'll get into the reasons of that in a little bit.

00:17:46.000 But what are your thoughts?

00:17:47.000 Yeah, no.

00:17:48.000 I closed on a deal yesterday, but finding real estate deals is significantly harder than it was.

00:17:55.000 Two or three years ago.

00:17:56.000 Before, the problem you had was people were over-competing for the houses because the interest rates were low.

00:18:01.000 Everyone was rushing to try to buy a house.

00:18:03.000 Now, the interest rates are very high.

00:18:05.000 I think I ended up closing mine at around 7% or 8%.

00:18:08.000 And for a lot of people, even as an investor, if you buy it as a first-time homebuyer or as going to reside in it, it's still going to be around 7%.

00:18:16.000 So that's just really high.

00:18:18.000 And then the median house, I think we were discussing before, somewhere around $400,000 to $500,000 now in America, right?

00:18:22.000 Yeah, over $400,000.

00:18:24.000 And that's crazy.

00:18:26.000 Yeah, I'll tell you why I think there's more pain to come.

00:18:30.000 And listen, you buying that house, obviously you're in it for the long term.

00:18:34.000 You've got capital to cover, and I'm sure you're looking at this could be a big three- to five-year hold or longer.

00:18:41.000 But for the average person, it's definitely hard.

00:18:45.000 For me, I'm over here competing with people that want to buy it.

00:18:47.000 People that might want to just buy it to live in it, it's going to be harder for them to get that property than someone like me as an investor.

00:18:52.000 Correct.

00:18:53.000 So no, it's definitely, the market has changed a lot and a lot of people are not able to afford the homes because they've exploded over the past couple of years thanks to the low interest rates from a couple of years ago with the pandemic.

00:19:04.000 But sorry, what were you going to say?

00:19:05.000 And a lot of people, the thing you have to think about, the reason I'm concerned is that, and Robert Kiyosaki, And a lot of people have talked about this.

00:19:13.000 He talks about it in his tweet that we're going to talk about in a second.

00:19:16.000 But the thing that he talked about is what happened over the last two weeks, and that the U.S. bond, the Treasury market came out, and there was no buyers.

00:19:24.000 There was no buyers of U.S. Treasuries.

00:19:27.000 And so the Fed had to come in and buy those.

00:19:31.000 And people aren't—I think if you read— Between the lines of what's happening, that's a really scary thing for us as Americans because our bonds are supposed to be the safest in the world, right?

00:19:45.000 And there's always buyers of bonds.

00:19:47.000 There's investment funds.

00:19:49.000 There's endowments.

00:19:51.000 They need to buy these things.

00:19:52.000 They have liquidity.

00:19:53.000 And they basically stonewalled this auction of U.S. Treasuries.

00:19:59.000 And so you saw the 10-year Treasury note go up.

00:20:04.000 Over the last two weeks.

00:20:05.000 And Robert Kiyosaki gets into this a little bit more.

00:20:07.000 A lot of people that are watching the bond market are really concerned that the 10-year could continue to skyrocket.

00:20:14.000 Now, in Japan, what they've been doing for 30 years is that the government just continues to buy because when there's no buyers, they'll just come in and buy them.

00:20:24.000 We're not at that point yet, but we could be.

00:20:28.000 We could be.

00:20:28.000 So in essence, what we would be doing is selling debt.

00:20:33.000 And then we would be buying it, our own debt.

00:20:36.000 So it would be like you having a credit card, and then you come in with another credit card to pay for the other credit card, right?

00:20:45.000 That's in essence what happened a few weeks ago because we had to buy those bonds.

00:20:48.000 And the reason, part of the reason that we're seeing this happen, and it's such a dramatic change from what we've had a few years ago, is that...

00:21:06.000 They're buying gold.

00:21:07.000 I mean, the proof is in the numbers.

00:21:09.000 I mean, you've seen the institutional, the central bank buying of gold.

00:21:12.000 It's been over 1,000 tons a year for three years in a row.

00:21:17.000 Once their debt comes due, they're moving in a different direction, buying gold or different assets.

00:21:22.000 You know, once you pull these big buyers out of our buying pool and they don't want to buy, and think about this.

00:21:28.000 The thing that's really scary is, like, these are notes that are in the high fours.

00:21:33.000 We've been selling bonds for, you take it the last two to three years, we've been selling U.S. Treasuries in the 1% to 3% range, and they were getting bought like crazy.

00:21:44.000 There was no slowdown in the buying of our bonds.

00:21:48.000 So right now, two weeks ago, U.S. Treasury releases bonds.

00:21:52.000 Nobody buys them.

00:21:53.000 The Fed buys them, which is, in essence, like a quantitative easing.

00:21:56.000 But we're buying our debt with other debt.

00:21:59.000 And so that is that trickle-down effect that we could continue to have is basically what we're doing is we're devaluing our money, right?

00:22:08.000 We're just printing more money.

00:22:10.000 To acquire the debt that we need to sell.

00:22:12.000 And we have to sell this debt.

00:22:13.000 We have no option.

00:22:15.000 We're completely insolvent.

00:22:17.000 So this is a pretty scary thing that happened over the last few weeks.

00:22:21.000 Real quick for the audience, because I know we got a lot of younger guys here that might not even know what bonds and treasuries are.

00:22:26.000 Can you explain what they are real quick?

00:22:27.000 I know you had talked about how stable they are and how they've always been stable for people that want consistent growth without really being too volatile.

00:22:34.000 But can you explain what bonds and treasuries are just so they understand?

00:22:36.000 Yeah.

00:22:37.000 So in essence, You know, the government sells bonds to investors to continue the debt that we're in, right?

00:22:47.000 Because obviously the country's $37 trillion in debt.

00:22:49.000 So we need to continue.

00:22:51.000 And it's something that we've done for a long time.

00:22:53.000 We've always sold.

00:22:53.000 There's different types of debt that you can buy.

00:22:56.000 You can buy corporate debts.

00:22:58.000 So you could buy debt of a company, you can buy You could buy local debt.

00:23:06.000 You could buy it where you are in Miami.

00:23:07.000 You could buy a municipality debt.

00:23:10.000 Let's say they need to raise money to put in a new road or do something.

00:23:16.000 They'll actually issue bonds in a specific city.

00:23:21.000 And all of the debt, besides the U.S. Treasury debt, it's a little bit riskier.

00:23:27.000 Everything gets a little bit riskier as you get away from us, the government.

00:23:31.000 Our debt is supposed to be the safest because we're the world's reserve currency.

00:23:36.000 We've never defaulted on it.

00:23:38.000 So in theory, we should be selling these bonds very easily because it's the safest.

00:23:45.000 And actually, if you look at historic returns over the last like 30 years, a high 4% return is not bad, right?

00:23:52.000 And this is basically, you know, for people out there just saying like, you can get a high 4% return.

00:23:59.000 On a 10-year note.

00:24:00.000 So you put the money in for 10 years, you're going to make almost 5% with, in theory, no risk, right?

00:24:06.000 But now what's happening, because Moody's downgraded our credit, the U.S. credit, they came in and said, we've spent too much money.

00:24:15.000 They downgraded our credit.

00:24:16.000 So when these bonds hit the market, these typically bonds that would be gobbled up by the world, by investors, investors took a seat and said no, because they believe that these bonds, We're going to get better.

00:24:29.000 They think that we're going to get in the fives and the sixes and the sevens.

00:24:33.000 The problem with this is that our 30-year mortgage that everybody goes out and buys and a lot of debt, like when companies are looking to get debt, it's typically tied to the 10-year Treasury note.

00:24:46.000 So if the 10-year Treasury note goes from a high fours, which it is now, to let's say six or seven or eight, that means...

00:24:58.000 And just imagine the pain that we're going to see in the real estate market if the 30-year mortgage goes to 10%.

00:25:07.000 I mean, that means that it's unaffordable right now, the mortgages.

00:25:11.000 They're basically double than they were like three years ago, right?

00:25:15.000 I'm sure you bought a few places.

00:25:16.000 Almost triple.

00:25:18.000 Now we're going to go even triple or quadruple in terms of what the monthly mortgage would be.

00:25:23.000 Which means prices are going to drop significantly.

00:25:27.000 That means we're going to see 30%, 40%, 50% pull down in the real estate market.

00:25:32.000 And for a lot of people, that's going to be a lot of pain for them, for people that bought houses over the last five years that can't sustain, that they're just going to end up walking away.

00:25:42.000 They won't have any equity.

00:25:43.000 If you buy your house in the last four or five years, the prices drop 40%, 50%.

00:25:47.000 You have no equity.

00:25:48.000 So, so yeah, so long story short, if people That puts us in a very precarious situation, and that means the real estate market could really fall.

00:26:01.000 So then the question is, is what other tangible investments could you buy that would be a hedge against that potential real estate fallout?

00:26:12.000 Yeah.

00:26:12.000 I mean, it's very interesting how with the bonds, right?

00:26:17.000 That's like probably the most safest and most stable.

00:26:19.000 The returns are lower, but it's probably the safest asset class to get into.

00:26:24.000 Then obviously you go into the stock market, then real estate, then obviously cryptocurrency, I always argue is like at the top where it's like the most volatile.

00:26:31.000 Where would you put precious metals in that list?

00:26:36.000 Yeah, I mean, listen, So there's a Basel III law, which these are the banking laws that were created after the last financial fallout of 2009.

00:26:51.000 And so basically there's been a number of things that have happened.

00:26:55.000 And these are basically ways to protect the banks.

00:26:57.000 This Basel, this is the Basel is, is basically the international agency that dictates banking laws.

00:27:04.000 And they passed a law three years ago.

00:27:16.000 They determined that gold three years ago, which by the way, the banks are way well ahead of all this price surge.

00:27:22.000 They say that now gold is a tier one asset.

00:27:26.000 So gold is in the bank's eyes, and these are like big banks, Bank of America, Wells Fargo.

00:27:32.000 Now these big banks can hold gold and use it as an asset on their books.

00:27:37.000 So they're saying that gold is equally as safe as bonds in their eyes.

00:27:43.000 This is groundbreaking law that passed a few years ago, and now this is going to go into effect.

00:27:49.000 A lot of people thought they would change it.

00:27:50.000 They didn't.

00:27:51.000 So July 1st this year, banks are going to be able to buy gold and use it on their balance sheet as a Tier 1 investment asset, and not paper gold, the real gold.

00:28:03.000 And so they're going to continue to buy gold.

00:28:05.000 So you're going to see all these big institutions, UBS and Bank of America and all these guys go out and really buy tons and tons of gold to put on their balance sheet.

00:28:16.000 So I would say in terms of safety, you know, bonds, you're right, have always been the Yeah, and I think the tariffs definitely hurt that as well.

00:28:38.000 Because I know, like you mentioned before, Japan buys a lot of our bonds.

00:28:41.000 I think the tariff situation scared them, and they kind of made the market a little bit volatile, and I think that's why Trump had to pull back on the whole tariff situation a bit.

00:28:50.000 Yeah, yeah, it's been a one step forward, two steps back in terms of the tariffs.

00:28:55.000 I mean, and I think that's, you know, the issue today is that They do want to make things, so they've gone aggressive on tariffs.

00:29:10.000 They want to make it an even playing field.

00:29:13.000 But we don't even know what that looks like.

00:29:15.000 I mean, we haven't manufactured anything to a large extent in probably 40 years.

00:29:21.000 So it's a real reversal of what we've been doing.

00:29:25.000 We've loved buying this shirt for...

00:29:33.000 We love that.

00:29:33.000 I mean, we're just used to that, right?

00:29:35.000 So it's a whole new mindset of what's happening with Trump and this new administration to get people into the mindset of, yeah, hey, this shirt might cost more, but the good part about it is that it's manufactured here, which means there's jobs here, which means there's taxes here, which means, you know, the income stays here.

00:29:53.000 But there's a shock value.

00:29:56.000 Of what we have to pay for items.

00:29:58.000 And this is all trickling down to consumer sentiment.

00:30:01.000 Consumer sentiment in the US right now is the lowest it's been in like almost 20 years.

00:30:07.000 People are just, they're keeping their wallet in their pocketbooks.

00:30:13.000 They're very concerned because they just don't know what's going to happen for the rest of the year.

00:30:19.000 And so there's this general fear about the economy and equities.

00:30:23.000 And obviously I laid out sort of the reasons to be fearful of the real estate market.

00:30:28.000 Yeah.

00:30:29.000 And speaking of which, we were talking about a very big real estate investor, Robert Kiyosaki, a second ago.

00:30:35.000 And I think you had a tweet.

00:30:36.000 I don't know if you want to pull it up, if you wanted us to pull it up now.

00:30:39.000 But can you give us a little bit of background on that?

00:30:42.000 Yeah, we'll pull up the tweet while you talk about it.

00:30:44.000 Go ahead.

00:30:45.000 Yeah, so basically Robert Kiyosaki, big gold buff, came out and said that he believes that gold is going to hit $25,000 an ounce.

00:30:55.000 That aren't aware gold is sitting at about $3,200 an ounce.

00:31:00.000 So this would be a pretty significant increase.

00:31:03.000 That being said, you know, if you look at- And he's a real estate guy, by the way.

00:31:07.000 For those that don't know, he wrote the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad.

00:31:10.000 You know, he talks a lot about using, you know, debt to create wealth.

00:31:13.000 He's a huge real estate guy.

00:31:14.000 So for him to talk about- Gold like this, I think that's very interesting, very important.

00:31:20.000 Yeah, I mean, I think he's smart in that he is a real estate guy, owns a lot of real estate, but he also owns gold mines, and he owns physical gold and silver, and he talks about it a lot.

00:31:30.000 And in this tweet, he talks about what I mentioned, that the Fed held an auction for U.S. bonds and no one showed up.

00:31:36.000 And then the Fed quietly bought $50 billion of its own fake money with fake money.

00:31:42.000 And so that's the really scary thing.

00:31:56.000 Like we've gone past that point.

00:31:59.000 There's no more credit cards to do it.

00:32:01.000 And so he's saying party's over.

00:32:05.000 Hyperinflation is here.

00:32:07.000 Millions, young and old, to be wiped out financially.

00:32:10.000 And then he says, good news, gold to $25,000, silver to $70,000, Bitcoin to $500K to $1 million.

00:32:16.000 And sort of kind of lays out sort of the reasons behind this.

00:32:19.000 What's silver sitting at per ounce right now?

00:32:22.000 I'm sorry?

00:32:23.000 What's silver sitting at right now per ounce?

00:32:25.000 Silver's sitting at about $32 an ounce.

00:32:27.000 So it's going to double.

00:32:28.000 Yeah.

00:32:29.000 So he says silver could double.

00:32:30.000 And then, you know, this would be, um, And listen, it's a big number, $25,000.

00:32:44.000 But I think what you have to read into this is that, you know, when you look at even gold breaking $3,000 an ounce, I think, you know, you and I started talking, you know, probably a year ago, gold was at, you know, $2,000, $2,100.

00:33:00.000 And nobody thought $3,000 was anywhere in the realm of possibility, and it moved quickly.

00:33:06.000 I mean, gold this year is up 12%.

00:33:07.000 Gold over the last 18 months is up over 40%.

00:33:12.000 So gold is outpacing any other stable asset And typically in commodities, you see an eight to 10 year run.

00:33:30.000 The last bull run in commodities was 2001 to 2010.

00:33:35.000 When gold went from $280 an ounce to $1,900.

00:33:39.000 So I think we're right in the middle of a pretty massive bull run.

00:33:43.000 And, you know, a lot of the institutions are talking about UBS.

00:33:46.000 It says gold should hit $3,700.

00:33:49.000 Bank of America is predicting $3,500 this year.

00:33:53.000 So there's a lot of the big banks out there that are predicting pretty big numbers for the gold price.

00:33:58.000 You said something interesting just now that made me think about something.

00:34:00.000 You said gold went on a bull run from 2001 to 2010.

00:34:03.000 And if people pay attention to that time span, that's effectively the war on terror, right?

00:34:08.000 The war on terror occurred in that decade where we made a significant amount of changes to, you know, Would you say that the current conflicts that we have now, whether it's what's going on in the Middle East with Israel and Iran and the proxies and also what's also going on with Russia and Ukraine, would you say that we might get the same type of increase in gold because of these foreign conflicts as well?

00:34:37.000 I think it's a combination of what you just said and a combination of, like, if you look at 2001 after 9-11, we cut rates.

00:34:45.000 There was the war on terror, as you mentioned.

00:34:46.000 This time, 2000, it was like, let's, we got to fill the economy with money, right?

00:34:53.000 everything was shut down.

00:34:54.000 So we just government just printing, printing, printing, printing, which is We had 9-11 happen and then we had multiple wars.

00:35:06.000 So we were just spending money like crazy.

00:35:09.000 In 2020, we were doing the same thing, right?

00:35:12.000 The whole economy was shut down.

00:35:13.000 So we were giving people free money.

00:35:15.000 We were paying off people's college.

00:35:18.000 We were spending a ton of money.

00:35:19.000 So we flooded the market with money in 2020 to 2022.

00:35:25.000 Stock market reacted and pulled back.

00:35:28.000 And now I think what it is is I think we've transitioned from the COVID and all that spending and all that's been dumped into the market and we hit $37 trillion in debt.

00:35:37.000 Now we're in a position where now it's the trade war, right?

00:35:41.000 So this second cycle, the second few years is this war on trade and us trying to attempt to level out the playing field.

00:35:51.000 And then you have right now is you have this new tax bill that went through the big bill.

00:35:58.000 And that tax bill they're predicting is going to add a minimum of $4.6 trillion in more debt to our economy.

00:36:07.000 So again, we're spending a lot of money.

00:36:10.000 This tax bill, this big bill, there's no savings in it for us there.

00:36:16.000 Opportunities for lower taxes, but that, generally speaking, is going to equate to, you know, more debt for us as a country and more spending.

00:36:25.000 So you have the Fed that's buying back our bonds.

00:36:27.000 You have this new tax bill that's going to add, you know, almost $5 trillion in debt.

00:36:31.000 So we're just going down the same.

00:36:33.000 We haven't really fixed anything.

00:36:35.000 I know, you know, Doge, the idea behind Doge is going to cut a lot.

00:36:39.000 But, I mean, we're talking about, I think they've cut maybe $100, $150 billion off our balance sheet.

00:36:45.000 It's nothing.

00:36:46.000 I mean, we're $37 trillion in debt and growing.

00:36:50.000 You know, our debt On that $37 trillion annually to cover our debt is right now is almost $1.5 trillion.

00:36:57.000 So that would be like if you had a credit card, that credit card would cost you $1.5 trillion per year.

00:37:03.000 That's our obligation per year as a country.

00:37:07.000 So if you add all these things up, it's like where's the money going to go?

00:37:12.000 Where's the opportunity?

00:37:14.000 And that's why I think Kiyosaki is predicting this massive $25,000 an ounce for gold.

00:37:20.000 And he's predicting these alternative assets to do really well because there's just no faith in our dollar or economy or the equity markets or the bond market.

00:37:29.000 So people are going to be looking for these.

00:37:30.000 You know, it's interesting, Colin, because I was literally talking earlier on my other show about what's going on with Russia and Ukraine, and I talked about how, you know, Trump is having a very tough time getting put into the table and negotiating something.

00:37:48.000 Launched a crazy strike with probably one of the biggest since the conflict started multiple years ago.

00:37:54.000 And, you know, they're talking about, oh, we're going to sanction Russia or whatever.

00:37:56.000 But the reality is I was trying to tell people was that we sanctioned Russia back in 2014, 2013 with the Crimea invasion. 0.57

00:38:03.000 And, you know, they obviously suffered for that.

00:38:05.000 But Putin got smarter and he bought a bunch of gold.

00:38:08.000 Right.

00:38:08.000 He holds a bunch of gold.

00:38:10.000 And he did this anticipating that he would at some point invade Ukraine as NATO expansion got.

00:38:16.000 Closer and closer to Russia and when he invaded in 2022 He knew that there you know, sanctions were gonna come he was gonna be condemned by the entire international community But despite the fact that that he was condemned, you know ostracized and they were sanctioned to hell and taken off of Swift The Russian economy is fifth strongest in the world if I'm not mistaken And I think a big reason for that was he preemptively bought a bunch of gold Knowing that that's what's gonna come so I mean if that doesn't prove that

00:38:45.000 That gold can protect you from other countries taking you off SWIFT or sanctioning the hell out of you.

00:38:51.000 I don't think anything else will because that's literally what he did was buy a bunch of gold and insulate himself.

00:38:56.000 And now they still have a very powerful economy despite the fact that they're running a war and they've been doing it for multiple years.

00:39:03.000 And China is doing it.

00:39:04.000 They basically created an alternative trade route.

00:39:07.000 Right?

00:39:07.000 It's basically saying, okay, well, fine.

00:39:10.000 We'll have the sanctions on the dollar, but we're going to still do transactions.

00:39:13.000 And they, two years ago, did a massive transaction with Iran.

00:39:16.000 Now they, you know, the BRIC nations are all starting to circulate and trade in gold.

00:39:21.000 And so they have this alternative currency out there.

00:39:24.000 And, you know, I think it's, you're right.

00:39:26.000 It was the smartest move that they could have done is to have this, you know, not only do they buy gold at a great price and they'll continue to buy gold, but they gave their way, they gave themselves an ability.

00:39:37.000 You know, because it rushes, you know, the amount of reserves and things that they have, the minerals that they have, oil.

00:39:43.000 I mean, they're a significant trading partner for most of the world.

00:39:47.000 So they've given themselves some flexibility.

00:39:49.000 And I can tell you this, a lot of people in this country believe that, you know, there could be a change in our currency, there could be a reset.

00:39:57.000 And so if that reset happens, how do they value that new currency?

00:40:04.000 What's going to happen to our currency?

00:40:05.000 So having too much of your money tied into the dollar, you know, and we're spiraling out of control, the debt is absolutely out of control.

00:40:14.000 It gives yourself an option outside of the current system if this system falls apart.

00:40:20.000 And, you know, there's nothing, but we've never seen the debt that we've created.

00:40:25.000 No country has ever been $37 trillion in debt, so we are in unprecedented And so it just gives people, people that buy gold from us, it gives them peace of mind to know they have a little bit of money in an alternative currency that's actually desirable that people want.

00:40:41.000 And it also can't be manipulated like how we see the manipulation in the dollar, the manipulation in the bond market.

00:40:49.000 And I would say, listen, this year there's been a lot of manipulation in the stock market because every time he says there's a tariff and then he pulls it back, there's a lot.

00:40:58.000 There's a lot of people out there that are day trading and making significant wealth in these massive swings.

00:41:06.000 I mean, we saw the Dow 2,200 points down in one day.

00:41:09.000 For the average person that's not day trading or living on their computer, which is most of us, you can't take advantage.

00:41:16.000 We're missing this opportunity and, and it's just, it's, it's, So what assets could you buy that you know, okay, I'm going to buy it and hold it for 5, 10 years and be able to shield myself from all this crazy volatility?

00:41:32.000 And there's a lot of insider trading and things that are happening.

00:41:35.000 We know all this is happening right now.

00:41:37.000 There's people that are getting ahead of this, this Liberation Day.

00:41:41.000 If you really knew what was going on and he was going to mandate all these tariffs, you knew the stock market was going to collapse, right?

00:41:46.000 So there's a lot of these things happening that just the average American can't take it.

00:41:50.000 advantage of.

00:41:51.000 And that's, you know, the sad part about this, you know, manipulation that we've seen in the economy.

00:41:56.000 Yeah.

00:41:57.000 So what else?

00:41:59.000 So we talked about the housing situation with the costs going crazy.

00:42:06.000 Robert Kiyosaki and 25 ounce.

00:42:08.000 Do you want to talk about the EU central banks?

00:42:11.000 Yeah, so the European Central Bank came out with a report three weeks ago, and they had their top five economists, and they really get into why you should own gold.

00:42:21.000 So they talk about that there's no counterparty risk, that there's a limited supply.

00:42:26.000 So the gold supply only goes up by 1% per year.

00:42:29.000 If the dollar was in the same way, if we could keep the dollar only growing by 1% of the debt, we would be in a much better position.

00:42:36.000 But gold is unique in that.

00:42:41.000 All these reasons of why investors are buying gold.

00:42:44.000 And then they talk about what happened after the election in November.

00:42:47.000 And basically what happened was the derivative gold market, so the paper gold market, went up by 58%.

00:42:53.000 So all the stock traders were like, we're going to see tariffs.

00:42:56.000 We're going to see a lot of volatility.

00:42:58.000 We're going to see gold's going to go crazy.

00:42:59.000 So they bought a ton of derivative gold, and they were right.

00:43:02.000 They predicted very well.

00:43:05.000 Gold from November to today is up.

00:43:07.000 Astronomical numbers.

00:43:08.000 But what ended up happening, the interesting part of this, and they show this in the charts, is that in January, people weren't satisfied with paper gold.

00:43:18.000 These big institutions, the JP Morgan's and the UBS's and all these big companies, BlackRock's, they wanted the gold.

00:43:26.000 And so they started calling in their contracts.

00:43:28.000 We don't want this contract.

00:43:29.000 We want it.

00:43:31.000 And all these institutions, they weren't prepared because they've never had this many people.

00:43:36.000 And when you look at the chart from the ECB, you'll see the amount of people asking for withdrawals is the highest it's ever been.

00:43:43.000 And so they show this in the chart.

00:43:45.000 They show that the derivative market to now, hey, we want our gold.

00:43:48.000 And it's very telling.

00:43:50.000 That they talk about this.

00:43:51.000 And the ECB, which is basically the Fed of Europe, basically kind of talks about how this whole thing changed and how they started to realize that maybe these institutions don't have enough gold.

00:44:05.000 And you probably saw the reports earlier this year.

00:44:08.000 So they were basically giving out IOUs with the paper gold.

00:44:11.000 They were just giving out IOUs.

00:44:12.000 And they didn't bank on everyone saying, yo, I want my gold in physical.

00:44:16.000 Correct.

00:44:17.000 And it created this.

00:44:19.000 Pandemonium, because people wanted their gold.

00:44:21.000 And to find out that the London Exchange basically said, we don't have it right now, even though in theory they were supposed to have every ounce, every contract was supposed to be backed, and they didn't have it.

00:44:32.000 It was a Ponzi.

00:44:34.000 And so people started to get more nervous.

00:44:36.000 And these aren't just people.

00:44:37.000 These are institutions.

00:44:38.000 These are groups that shouldn't be nervous.

00:44:41.000 They became very nervous.

00:44:42.000 And they got into a position where they just said, we got to keep getting it.

00:44:45.000 So the amount of institutions that wanted their physical gold is a number we've never seen in history of the paper gold market.

00:44:53.000 We've never seen it.

00:44:54.000 And it continues.

00:44:55.000 And in this ECB, what they slide into the end, which if you read this article, and these are the five Top economists by the ECB.

00:45:04.000 They basically say, if we continue to see people wanting physical gold, there will be substantial losses.

00:45:12.000 And what they're saying is that these institutions actually don't have enough gold.

00:45:17.000 They don't actually have it.

00:45:19.000 And they say if people continue to want their gold, as long as they stay complacent, they don't want it, they should be okay.

00:45:24.000 But if people continue to want their gold, which I think they have a right to get, that the whole market could fall apart.

00:45:31.000 And that there could be an absolute supply shock.

00:45:35.000 And this is the, in my 16 years doing this, this is the most controversial article I've ever seen because it's becoming from a source that has no interest in gold, right?

00:45:47.000 The ECB has, I mean, they're in charge of the Euro.

00:45:51.000 It would be like the Fed.

00:45:53.000 Telling everybody like, hey, we don't have gold in Fort Knox, or if you guys want to see the gold, we can't show it to you.

00:45:59.000 That would be the equivalent to this article.

00:46:01.000 I mean, it's so shocking to see this kind of article come out.

00:46:05.000 So I think what it does is it really affirms what, you know, what I've been doing for a long time is just saying like, listen.

00:46:12.000 Gold is an asset you can own by yourself.

00:46:14.000 You don't have to have a middle person.

00:46:16.000 You can acquire it from us.

00:46:18.000 We can ship it to you.

00:46:19.000 If you want us to store it, we can store it.

00:46:20.000 And then later we can ship it.

00:46:22.000 Whatever you want.

00:46:23.000 At the end of the day, you need to buy the real thing.

00:46:25.000 You need to buy the actual gold.

00:46:28.000 Don't buy the paper.

00:46:30.000 Because it's really the one asset when things hit the fan.

00:46:34.000 That you know you own.

00:46:36.000 Because when you buy this from us, there's no one else that owns it.

00:46:39.000 There's no counterparty risk.

00:46:41.000 Counterparty risk is like when you buy a stock or something or something else and somebody else owns it.

00:46:47.000 And anything can happen.

00:46:48.000 There's nothing like that.

00:46:49.000 This is yours.

00:46:51.000 And so I think it's extremely important for everybody today to have some assets that don't have debt.

00:46:58.000 Behind it, and also that you own by yourself, and free and clear of the government, free and clear of institutions.

00:47:06.000 It's going to become more and more important to own things.

00:47:08.000 And, you know, you've seen this all over, and you're an owner of assets.

00:47:14.000 What you read out there is just buy this stock or just buy a derivative or just buy this or, you know, you can just buy a portion.

00:47:20.000 You don't need to do that with gold and silver.

00:47:22.000 You can buy the whole thing and it's going to save people down the road.

00:47:26.000 They're going to be saved by owning assets because the way the economy is going is that the institutions, the World Economic Forum, all these groups, they don't want you to own anything.

00:47:37.000 They want you to just lease and rent and, you know, do all this stuff.

00:47:40.000 And the reason is they want control.

00:47:42.000 Because ultimately, whoever owns the assets wins.

00:47:45.000 And so if you don't own assets in this economy, you're going to have a rude awakening in the next few years.

00:47:52.000 Yeah, no, that is so true because, I mean, you know, millennials and I would, you know, I got to blame my generation for this a little bit. 0.99

00:47:59.000 Millennials and, you know, Gen Zers and Xers and everything else like that.

00:48:03.000 Like, we were okay with just renting and not owning things.

00:48:06.000 And basically what's happened now is things have sprouted out of control.

00:48:09.000 We got the highest, you know, median income.

00:48:11.000 I think 403 is the median price.

00:48:12.000 For homes, looking at your notes here.

00:48:14.000 And that's crazy, man.

00:48:15.000 I mean, our parents bought houses for less than $100,000.

00:48:18.000 So for it to be 5 to 10x is absolutely crazy.

00:48:23.000 And most people nowadays are renting.

00:48:25.000 They're paying a bunch of money to have an apartment in New York City or one of these metropolitan cities because everyone wants to dream of living in a major city in the United States.

00:48:33.000 and they don't own anything.

00:48:34.000 So I do think that, you know, Absolutely.

00:48:49.000 Yeah, and also if you think about it, you know, the nice thing is, and this has happened for a lot of people, and I actually was interviewed by an influencer on YouTube that I've been advertising with for many years, and he bought gold for me, and, you know, we paid him in gold for years.

00:49:06.000 And his YouTube channel got demonetized.

00:49:10.000 I don't know if you know this guy, Next News Network.

00:49:12.000 Okay.

00:49:12.000 But he's been big on YouTube for a long time.

00:49:15.000 And he was actually our first influencer.

00:49:17.000 Just like us, demonetized.

00:49:19.000 So annoying, huh?

00:49:20.000 I mean, it's terrible.

00:49:21.000 Yeah.

00:49:22.000 So he got demonetized.

00:49:25.000 For a number of years and for about two years.

00:49:28.000 And so basically his income dropped to, you know, really low.

00:49:31.000 He had advertisers like us, but like obviously he was making money.

00:49:34.000 He had like 30 or 40,000 videos that he'd make a little money on.

00:49:37.000 So he's doing quite well.

00:49:38.000 They demonetized him and he was, you know, looking for ways to sustain himself.

00:49:44.000 And he didn't want to, but he had to sell some of the gold.

00:49:48.000 And he said in the interview today, he was talking to me about it.

00:49:51.000 He's like, if I didn't have that gold.

00:49:54.000 If I didn't have it, which I had no debt behind, I owned it by myself, I might have not been able to survive this demonetization that YouTube put me through.

00:50:03.000 And so, you know, that's the thing too that's nice is that there's people today that bought gold from us years ago that, yeah, maybe they see an opportunity or they have to fix their roof or they got to pay their mortgage.

00:50:13.000 Like, you know, this coin, this is a mortgage payment.

00:50:17.000 Right?

00:50:18.000 I mean, so they have this disposable, you know, income that's available to them because they bought gold.

00:50:25.000 So I think as you think about your future, there could be a chance where you go, you know what, I need money or I need to get this fixed.

00:50:32.000 And so you use the asset that's, you know, the gold that he bought from us is doubled.

00:50:37.000 So he was able to liquidate it and just kind of keep.

00:50:41.000 The lights on for a while.

00:50:42.000 And he told me he was able to pay his staff and he was able to survive until he got monetized again.

00:50:49.000 So these are the other reasons that you want to have debt-free assets.

00:50:53.000 You just don't know what's going to happen and you need to have some liquidity there.

00:50:57.000 And that's the nice thing about gold and silver is that they're liquid.

00:51:01.000 It's liquid anywhere in the world.

00:51:03.000 No, absolutely, man. 0.97

00:51:06.000 Yeah, when shit hits the fan, I remember we had Robert Kiyosaki in our show, and he literally said it like, hey, if things happen doomsday, you hold the gold and then you trade the silver. 0.98

00:51:16.000 I think it's a class that not a lot of people pay attention to, especially young people. 0.99

00:51:19.000 They think, oh, what?

00:51:20.000 My grandpa has gold.

00:51:22.000 Who does that?

00:51:23.000 I don't think they understand the importance of it.

00:51:25.000 And especially with the way millennials are, where they don't buy anything. 0.99

00:51:28.000 They don't own anything.

00:51:30.000 At least it's an asset class that you can quickly liquidate if you need cash, quick.

00:51:34.000 Absolutely.

00:51:35.000 Yeah.

00:51:35.000 And so, um, Anyone's got an IRA or 401k, we can help you.

00:51:44.000 You can put that in physical gold.

00:51:45.000 And it's the real thing.

00:51:46.000 We help you with the paperwork.

00:51:47.000 You buy the gold from us, but it's yours.

00:51:49.000 So it's, you own the assets.

00:51:51.000 It's not a fund.

00:51:53.000 You know, we've been doing that.

00:51:54.000 I started Noble Gold about 10 years ago.

00:51:56.000 I've been doing it for 16 years.

00:51:58.000 We've done over $2 billion in gold and silver sales.

00:52:01.000 So we've done a lot.

00:52:02.000 You can check out our reviews.

00:52:03.000 But we created, if you don't have an IRA or 401k that you want to do, we've created a fresh and fit package, starter package.

00:52:11.000 And it's really cool.

00:52:13.000 So it's for, you know, just around $5,000.

00:52:15.000 You're going to get, this is a, um, So the nice thing about this is that, you know, if you look, go back 100 years ago, this $20 gold piece is what people use this to trade and barter with.

00:52:27.000 They would buy, you know, $20 100 years ago, you could, you know, you could take your wife out to dinner, you could buy groceries, and you'd still have money left over with a $20 gold piece to give you some idea of how the dollar has fallen.

00:52:41.000 I know people like today are like, what do you mean a $20?

00:52:44.000 I mean, you could trade this $20 for For $20 too, but $20 in gold would pay a lot about 100 years ago.

00:52:50.000 So this is in the Fresh and Fit package, the $5,000.

00:52:52.000 You get this coin.

00:52:54.000 It'll be graded.

00:52:55.000 So this is a high quality.

00:52:56.000 It'll be an MS63 coin.

00:52:58.000 So you'll get this gold coin in the Fresh and Fit package.

00:53:02.000 And you'll see, I mean, the condition is incredible.

00:53:05.000 Just to think that So this is part of the Fresh and Fit package.

00:53:15.000 Does that account for purity or age or the MS63?

00:53:18.000 What is that?

00:53:20.000 So, yeah.

00:53:20.000 So the quality.

00:53:21.000 So, yeah.

00:53:22.000 So in essence, the grading.

00:53:25.000 You can go really far down to like VF or even below, which would be very fine.

00:53:30.000 Those would be coins that will be a little bit rougher.

00:53:32.000 For a 100-year-old coin, the top grade would be MS-70.

00:53:38.000 That would be like the best, highest quality.

00:53:42.000 You're not going to find an MS-70 in a 100-year-old coin.

00:53:48.000 for the most part, very rare.

00:53:51.000 Usually you see MS66 in this coin would probably run you like close to $10,000.

00:54:05.000 Wow.

00:54:06.000 So this is a lower grade, but a very high quality.

00:54:10.000 It's hard to see on the camera here, but you're going to be shocked.

00:54:13.000 Whoever buys this will be shocked by the quality of this coin.

00:54:16.000 So it's MS63, and the highest, which is rare you said, is MS70.

00:54:21.000 Yeah, you don't really see those kind of things in 100-year-old coins because these are coins that were in circulation.

00:54:29.000 People had these in their pockets, and gold is a soft metal, so it's going to have some scratches.

00:54:35.000 For the most part, you're going to be blown away by, you know, the look and feel of this.

00:54:39.000 So it's really cool to have a piece of history that you can put in your portfolio.

00:54:44.000 So you get an MS63 coin.

00:54:46.000 It'll be different dates, but it'd be anywhere from the, you know, early 1900s to 1930.

00:54:52.000 You'll get a silver American Eagle proof coin, which is a one ounce silver coin.

00:54:57.000 It comes in a velvet case.

00:54:59.000 It also has a certificate of authenticity, so you'll get that.

00:55:01.000 And then you'll get 20 ounces of the silver American Eagle, which is the most popular coin.

00:55:07.000 You'll see these coins.

00:55:09.000 Our MS typically are going to come out close to MS69 or MS70 because they're basically perfect.

00:55:16.000 So modern-day coins you can get in this higher grade, but you're not going to find many in that higher grade.

00:55:24.000 For older coins.

00:55:25.000 It's just pretty rare just because they were in circulation.

00:55:28.000 But yeah, it's the fresh and fit starter package.

00:55:32.000 So for five grand, you get some gold, you get some history, you get some silver, and it's a good split to get someone started and investing in precious metals.

00:55:42.000 I'll tell you this.

00:55:43.000 I spent like $8K to $10K just buying silver, and I didn't get as much as that or gold.

00:55:48.000 So that's a pretty damn good deal to get in.

00:55:50.000 And guys, honestly, if you get that, You don't really got to buy any more pressed metals if you just kind of want to have something just so that you want to diversify.

00:55:58.000 That's a great way where you can kind of enter in, get your gold, get some silver, put it in a safe, forget about it.

00:56:04.000 And if the rainy day ever comes, you just have it there.

00:56:06.000 Because when I went ahead and I bought my first, you know.

00:56:10.000 I spent like $8K to $10K roughly on silver.

00:56:14.000 And I didn't get any gold, right?

00:56:16.000 And I kind of, looking back, I wish I had some gold because gold is obviously worth a lot more and it's going up.

00:56:22.000 So this is a great way to get in guys.

00:56:24.000 If someone wants to spend a little bit more, you can get, what we'll do is in the rare coins, you can get, And that whole package together would be less than $10,000.

00:56:41.000 And that's a really cool set because that's all the coins that were in circulation.

00:56:45.000 So you get a $2.50 gold piece, a $5, a $10, and a $20, plus all this silver for a little bit less than $10,000.

00:56:53.000 And that would be like the really coolest.

00:56:55.000 And if you think about it, that's what a person 100 years ago would have in their pocket.

00:57:00.000 They would have those coins in their pocket.

00:57:02.000 So if someone wanted to spend a little bit more and get that whole set, they could do it, or they could just go ahead and start with the starter package.

00:57:10.000 No, that's a fantastic starter.

00:57:12.000 Man, I wish I met you a couple years ago, man.

00:57:14.000 Like, I literally spent a whole bunch on silver and didn't get any gold, and that's not even...

00:57:23.000 You could have bought that for me.

00:57:24.000 At the time I saw you, the kilo bar was worth like $68,000 or $69,000.

00:57:30.000 Yes.

00:57:31.000 And now it's sitting above $80,000 today.

00:57:33.000 Wow.

00:57:34.000 Less than a year.

00:57:35.000 Yeah.

00:57:36.000 Wow.

00:57:36.000 I tried to sell it to you, but you didn't want to buy it for me.

00:57:39.000 No, you didn't want to sell it to me.

00:57:40.000 I was asking you if I could get it.

00:57:42.000 You were like, no.

00:57:43.000 Yeah, you're right.

00:57:44.000 You're right.

00:57:44.000 I didn't want to sell it.

00:57:45.000 I wanted to get it.

00:57:46.000 Now, next time, I'll sell it to you.

00:57:48.000 Yeah, you didn't want to sell it to me, man.

00:57:50.000 I was like, hey, could I get this thing?

00:57:52.000 And you were like, no.

00:57:53.000 So, yeah, man, no.

00:57:55.000 But I think, you know, guys, and here's the thing, man.

00:57:58.000 I'm a real estate guy.

00:57:59.000 Robert Kiyosaki are real estate guys.

00:58:01.000 You need to get yourself into some precious metals, man.

00:58:03.000 Again, I think $5,000 is cheap and a great way to kind of get in so that you can put that in your safe and you have it no matter what.

00:58:08.000 And it's really an insurance policy, man.

00:58:10.000 You know, I always tell you guys, you know, have a good amount of cash that you can liquidate anytime, but having precious metals is another thing that you could do.

00:58:16.000 Question for you, though, Con.

00:58:18.000 Let's say they buy this stuff, right, and they want to sell it quickly.

00:58:21.000 Maybe, you know, a family member needs surgery or they need some access to cash quickly.

00:58:25.000 How should they go about selling it?

00:58:30.000 So the first thing, I would always just ship it back to us.

00:58:33.000 Frankly, we're going to give you the best price because you bought it from us.

00:58:37.000 If you can't do that, then the other option would go like locally and to try to sell it.

00:58:42.000 But most of our clients, that's the beauty behind us and Noble Gold is that you want to make sure that you have a dealer that you have a two-way street with.

00:58:51.000 Because like for instance, right now, everybody's like buying from Costco because they think it's a great deal.

00:58:55.000 Well, Costco doesn't buy back gold.

00:58:59.000 So when you want to liquidate, you've got to go find somebody, and who knows what you're going to run into out of the market.

00:59:05.000 So with us, we buy it back at the market value.

00:59:08.000 You're going to get a fair price.

00:59:09.000 We're going to liquidate it and get it to you. 0.89

00:59:11.000 Also, I sell these all the time.

00:59:13.000 You know, the problem with people a lot of times is they buy from a dealer and they buy some crazy coin that nobody wants and then they try to sell it and they realize, well, yeah, nobody wants to buy this thing.

00:59:23.000 You've got to buy items that people are buying and selling and buy from a dealer that's buying and selling all the time.

00:59:29.000 So, yeah, I'm fine.

00:59:30.000 You come back and sell it to me.

00:59:31.000 I'm going to buy it back and sell it to somebody else.

00:59:34.000 You've got to be careful.

00:59:35.000 So I think the biggest thing is buying from a reputable place and making sure that they have a liquidation process that makes sense for you.

00:59:42.000 Yeah.

00:59:42.000 No, I mean, that's super important, man.

00:59:44.000 I mean, being able to buy from a dealer that will buy it back and you know, is it going to rip you off?

00:59:48.000 That's, you know, worth its weight in gold, so to speak.

00:59:51.000 No pun intended.

00:59:51.000 So, no, very important.

00:59:54.000 Cool.

00:59:55.000 Was there anything else?

00:59:56.000 I'm trying to think here and make sure because I took some notes here if we missed.

00:59:59.000 No, I think if anybody had questions.

01:00:01.000 Oh, yeah.

01:00:01.000 Let's hit questions.

01:00:03.000 Do we have any bills?

01:00:04.000 Okay, let's see if we can hit some of these questions.

01:00:06.000 Guys, if you've got any questions on precious metals, man, please get them in.

01:00:09.000 Like I said, guys, you don't got to make a decision today, but, you know, we're just kind of putting this in your head, letting you know what's going on here.

01:00:14.000 The fact that we bought back a bunch of bonds, that's scary, dude.

01:00:17.000 That's scary.

01:00:19.000 Speedy says, if you're a person that doesn't know how money works, then what are some books to help you get started on how to learn how money works?

01:00:26.000 Oh, perfect question to ask.

01:00:27.000 Go ahead.

01:00:27.000 Yeah, that's a good question.

01:00:28.000 I mean, when people ask me this stuff, I think the number one thing is you need to figure out how to make money before you think about investing.

01:00:37.000 I see this all the time. 1.00

01:00:40.000 Listen, you've got to learn how to put some money away and suck. 0.98

01:00:44.000 You've got to put $5,000, $10,000, $15,000, $20,000 away. 0.96

01:00:46.000 You've got to find a career that you can find an arbitrage or a way to make money.

01:00:51.000 Don't even, I wouldn't even think about getting Once you're able to sock some, that would be my number one goal.

01:01:01.000 Figure out a way to make a decent living.

01:01:04.000 Figure out a way to put money away.

01:01:05.000 Figure out a way to not spend everything that's coming in.

01:01:08.000 Once you get $5,000, $10,000, $15,000, $20,000 a side, then you can go out, you can read my book, Silver's a New Oil, or you can look at these investment books.

01:01:16.000 The number one thing is you've got to get enough money, as you know.

01:01:20.000 Put away, and then start thinking about, find something you're really good at, make a career.

01:01:25.000 That would be the first thing.

01:01:26.000 Don't get caught up in investing before you don't even have any money to invest.

01:01:29.000 Yeah, and it doesn't benefit him to tell you that, by the way.

01:01:32.000 Like, you should be telling, buy my silver, buy my gold.

01:01:35.000 But it's like, no, find a way to make money consistently.

01:01:37.000 Then once you have some money set aside, then you can invest.

01:01:40.000 So, what do we got here?

01:01:41.000 We got, Colonel says, cap rates and multipliers are ridiculously bad besides equity, which is unpredictable.

01:01:47.000 What is the real point of dealing management?

01:01:53.000 Well, I mean, listen, that's not true.

01:01:58.000 I mean, you know as a real estate investor that the right property will appreciate substantially more than a bond.

01:02:06.000 Absolutely.

01:02:07.000 Yeah, so I don't agree with that.

01:02:11.000 I think that right now, maybe the thing that he's saying that's accurate is that maybe you can't buy real estate at prices that make sense.

01:02:18.000 Yeah, you can't.

01:02:19.000 So yeah, you should wait.

01:02:20.000 If you can't buy it and get a return or you don't think there's significant upside, then yeah, just stick it in bonds or buy gold and silver and just wait for things to happen.

01:02:29.000 But to say that bonds are going to pay more long-term than good real estate is just, I Yeah.

01:02:42.000 Yeah, bonds is like a safe way to put your money in where you don't got to worry about anything, but it's like, at the end of the day, the growth is so slow.

01:02:49.000 Yeah, correct.

01:02:50.000 What else do we got here?

01:02:52.000 If I have an inheritance of 50K, then what are some of the things I should invest in to grow my money?

01:02:56.000 If I'm an average guy making 35k a year, also how much should I start before I start investing in precious metals?

01:03:01.000 Well, I mean, listen, you're going to have to put that money somewhere, that 50k.

01:03:05.000 And, you know, I would say the first thing is that How much of that money do you need?

01:03:10.000 If you don't need that money, then yeah, maybe looking at our starter package at $5,000 is good.

01:03:15.000 I would say you should have some diversification.

01:03:19.000 But, you know, ultimately the big thing is that you want to, with any investment, you want to be able to hold it for 3, 5, 10 years.

01:03:26.000 So if this $50,000 that you have is you need it for whatever you need it, you're going to need it.

01:03:31.000 If you can sock some of it away into some investments, like buying a $5,000 gold package and socking it away.

01:03:38.000 That will hold value, unlike the $50,000 cash won't hold value.

01:03:42.000 Yeah, in the bank, you're not going to make enough.

01:03:45.000 And people talk to me, they're like, oh, why don't I just put in and make 4% of my money?

01:03:50.000 And it's great.

01:03:51.000 It's like, well, gold's up 12% this year, gold's up over 40% over the last 18 months.

01:03:56.000 You know, who cares about 4%? 1.00

01:03:58.000 If the bank's paying you 4%, there's a reason.

01:04:00.000 They can go out into the market and invest it and make 10, 20, 30. The bank's not in the charity business.

01:04:08.000 They're paying you 4% because they can make 15% or 20% in the market or other places.

01:04:12.000 So yes, it's safe and maybe you need to do that.

01:04:22.000 I mean, as you know, you just bought another piece of real estate.

01:04:25.000 You need that money to work for you, and it's never going to work for you in bonds.

01:04:30.000 Bonds are like when you're last 10, 15, 20 years of your life, and you're just trying to wind it down, and you just want it in something safe.

01:04:38.000 But if you're young and you're looking to grow, you cannot retire on 4% returns.

01:04:44.000 You're never going to get there.

01:04:46.000 You need double-digit returns to survive because inflation is going to eat you up.

01:04:52.000 And so you have to find opportunities out there.

01:04:56.000 So yeah, so I think it's, you know, listen, give us a call.

01:04:58.000 Maybe gold and silver is right for you.

01:05:00.000 Get our guides, learn about it.

01:05:02.000 It may not be, but ultimately you can't live on 4% bond money because it just, in the world we're in today, the cost of everything is going up substantially more than that.

01:05:12.000 And you need to be able to keep up.

01:05:13.000 Yeah.

01:05:14.000 What else do we got here?

01:05:18.000 Is it?

01:05:18.000 Oh, okay.

01:05:19.000 I got that one.

01:05:21.000 Can someone who doesn't live in the U.S. buy gold from you?

01:05:23.000 If not, is there anywhere you would recommend for international people to buy gold from?

01:05:29.000 Yeah, I don't have any recommendations.

01:05:31.000 We only sell gold in the US.

01:05:32.000 And the reason is, is that every country has a VAT tax.

01:05:36.000 So they tax it.

01:05:37.000 So if I shipped it to the UK or if I shipped it to anywhere, So we don't do it.

01:05:44.000 It just doesn't make sense for anybody.

01:05:46.000 If you want to buy gold and store it here in the U.S., which a lot of investors do because they feel more comfortable storing it here, we can do that for you.

01:05:55.000 We can store it in Delaware, Texas, or in Canada.

01:05:58.000 So we can store gold for people living internationally.

01:06:02.000 But at the end of the day, you typically want to buy in the country that you're in because you're going to avoid a lot of tax doing it that way.

01:06:08.000 Bam.

01:06:09.000 All right.

01:06:13.000 Two more.

01:06:17.000 Noble, do you think this is Xi economy has had a huge effect with lack of investments in the US?

01:06:23.000 I don't know.

01:06:24.000 What is that?

01:06:25.000 I don't know.

01:06:26.000 What is that?

01:06:28.000 Do you know what that is?

01:06:29.000 He's basically saying because women are the majority of consumers in the United States, so he's saying does that have an effect on investments?

01:06:37.000 Nah, bro, because women don't invest. 1.00

01:06:38.000 Alright, who's next?

01:06:42.000 Okay, what about gold jewelry?

01:06:44.000 One of the worst investments that you can make is gold jewelry.

01:06:49.000 Jewelry in general is typically just a terrible investment.

01:06:55.000 Massive markups on liquidation.

01:06:58.000 Most gold jewelry is 14, 18 carat.

01:07:01.000 This is an older coin, so it's 22 carat.

01:07:05.000 But most of the bars we sell are 24 carat.

01:07:08.000 And the reason this is 22 karat because people are like, oh, why should I buy it?

01:07:12.000 Is that gold is a soft metal.

01:07:14.000 So 100 years ago, if you wanted to walk around with gold, you wouldn't want a 24 karat gold coin because it would scratch and scuff.

01:07:21.000 So that's why they sold 22. That's why gold in circulation was 22 karat.

01:07:26.000 Gold jewelry is one of the worst investments you can make.

01:07:32.000 Except if you think it's important for you to do that to make your partner happy.

01:07:37.000 But otherwise than that, it's not a good investment.

01:07:40.000 There you go.

01:07:40.000 If you guys want gold, buy the actual stuff, not the jewelry.

01:07:44.000 Correct.

01:07:45.000 What else do we got here?

01:07:47.000 That's it?

01:07:48.000 Okay, one more that just came in just now.

01:07:51.000 We'll get you out of here, Colin.

01:07:52.000 I know you've got a busy day.

01:07:53.000 Is there a benefit can you be buying a purchase about like a 401k or just buy a flat value and hold it for the rainy day or need it?

01:07:58.000 Yeah, I mean, a lot of people lost jobs or have old 401ks.

01:08:01.000 Ks you could roll that into a gold IRA with us so basically it moves from that 401k in stocks into So we can do that for you with any old 401k or any IRA investment, or you can just buy it directly.

01:08:16.000 We do both.

01:08:17.000 It doesn't really matter.

01:08:18.000 We find a lot of people have money in those 401ks, so it might make sense.

01:08:23.000 And also, it's a good way to diversify because if you have an old 401k and an old job.

01:08:28.000 You can roll it into gold and silver.

01:08:30.000 So you got that gold.

01:08:31.000 And then your new job, if it has a 401k, is going to be in the stock market.

01:08:34.000 So it's a good way to hedge your bet and to have multiple investments without really having too much to think about.

01:08:40.000 So I would say any old 401k, give it a shot in gold and silver so you have some diversification within your own portfolio.

01:08:50.000 And it's just a smart thing to do.

01:08:52.000 Bam.

01:08:53.000 All right.

01:08:56.000 That was very informative.

01:08:57.000 We went through a lot of things there.

01:09:01.000 Colin, where can people find you?

01:09:02.000 If they want to get your book, where can they get it?

01:09:03.000 We can put a link below as well if you guys want to get the book.

01:09:05.000 Some of you guys might not know enough.

01:09:06.000 Yeah, if you just contact Noble Gold Investments, we can give you access to where to find the book.

01:09:11.000 It's on Amazon.

01:09:12.000 It did hit number one in the commodities section in December of last year, which was amazing.

01:09:18.000 You know, my first book out of the gate.

01:09:19.000 A lot of good information there.

01:09:21.000 But overall, I would just say call us if you're looking to get information.

01:09:24.000 We can get you started with the starter package.

01:09:27.000 And, you know, you can get this gold in your hands in a week.

01:09:30.000 And silver.

01:09:31.000 So this is liquid.

01:09:32.000 This is there.

01:09:33.000 And I say a lot of times with investments, it's good to just get into something, like get in your hands, sock it away, and then focus.

01:09:42.000 As the first question was, you should be focusing right now on how to grow your wealth and really grow your career.

01:09:50.000 And as you get money.

01:09:51.000 Put it away in investments and forget about it.

01:09:54.000 And I guarantee you, you know, Kiyosaki is going to be right.

01:09:57.000 You know, 20 years, we're going to see gold at, you know, $15,000, $20,000, $30,000 an ounce.

01:10:01.000 And you'll be happy and you'll go, wait a minute, I saw that crazy guy who's, you know, talking about gold at $3,200 and now gold sitting at $15,000 or $20,000.

01:10:10.000 And, you know, they feel pretty good about silver sitting at, you know, $300, $400 an ounce.

01:10:15.000 So it's one of those things, you just buy it, sock it away for a rainy day, and in the end, you'll be happy that you did.

01:10:22.000 Because the debt that we've created, the dollar devaluation, all that's happening in the world, it's not going anywhere.

01:10:28.000 We're not going to pay off this debt.

01:10:30.000 It's impossible.

01:10:31.000 So it's just a waiting game of when the economy will collapse.

01:10:36.000 And when that happens, real assets like gold and silver will perform very, very well, and you'll be happy.

01:10:43.000 That you took advantage of this opportunity.

01:10:46.000 Okay.

01:10:47.000 One last chat just came in just now.

01:10:50.000 A guy named Austin, he has a question.

01:10:52.000 He says, so I have 7 ounces of gold, 422.742 ounces of silver, I think?

01:10:59.000 He has bars, kilos, and coins, 5.2K in crypto, 3.6K in stock, and whole value life insurance policy.

01:11:07.000 He says he's a Native American, so he gets...

01:11:12.000 Should I go for a two-family in the future?

01:11:14.000 $10K in savings and $1.8 cash.

01:11:15.000 Any tips?

01:11:16.000 You're going to need more to do a two-family, bro, unless you live like in the middle of nowhere. 0.88

01:11:20.000 But I guess since I got Colin here, what do you think about his gold holding?

01:11:23.000 He says he has seven ounces of gold and a 4.22.74. 0.97

01:11:27.000 Goddamn, just didn't really put the whole thing.

01:11:29.000 I'm assuming that's maybe, I don't know if that's ounces or grams. 0.91

01:11:32.000 Yeah, so he's got like...

01:11:37.000 He's got $422,000.

01:11:39.000 He's got like $13,000, $14,000 in silver.

01:11:42.000 So 2013, so he's got $37,000.

01:11:47.000 He's got about 42 different stocks.

01:11:51.000 42. He's got close to 50 grand in assets, and he gets $2,335 tax-free, which is...

01:12:06.000 That's like making like what?

01:12:07.000 That's like making like almost $50,000 a year with taxes?

01:12:10.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:12:12.000 Basically, yeah, he's getting free money because he's Native American. 0.61

01:12:15.000 $10k in savings.

01:12:17.000 He's got $52 in investments, $62 cash.

01:12:21.000 Yeah, I mean, I don't know how old he is.

01:12:23.000 25. How old is he?

01:12:25.000 He's 25. 25. This guy's doing great.

01:12:27.000 You know, I would just say keep, you know, that's a great – What's a two-family in the future?

01:12:35.000 What does that mean?

01:12:36.000 He wants to buy a duplex, but that depends heavily upon where he's trying to live.

01:12:41.000 I mean, 10K in savings, bro, you're barely going to be able to get a duplex unless you live in the middle of nowhere and the house is worth nothing.

01:12:49.000 But, I mean, hell, bro, with that, I mean, you could buy, you could definitely, with that $2,300 you make a month, you can go ahead and take advantage of this deal.

01:12:55.000 Since you're getting free money like that, you can save that money for two months and go ahead and get this.

01:13:00.000 This gold package deal with the silver.

01:13:02.000 Yeah, I mean, I think this guy, Austin, is doing great.

01:13:06.000 He's got some diversification.

01:13:09.000 He's got some savings.

01:13:10.000 This is the kind of stuff that I love to see, honestly.

01:13:13.000 This guy's got a good head on his shoulders.

01:13:16.000 I think like he's in a good position.

01:13:18.000 He's in a stable position.

01:13:20.000 I think the next thing is like finding that next big opportunity to like really make some money, like to really kind of grow his portfolio.

01:13:28.000 But if he continues every year to just add an ounce of gold, add some silver.

01:13:35.000 Add a little crypto.

01:13:37.000 And then, you know, I would say three or four years, look to buy that duplex.

01:13:42.000 Like, this guy is going to be in a phenomenal position.

01:13:44.000 This guy, guaranteed this guy retires with, you know, probably four or five million bucks net worth minimum.

01:13:52.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:13:53.000 And he's going to be living really good.

01:13:55.000 So it's great to see this stuff.

01:13:57.000 And my hat's off to you, Austin.

01:13:59.000 I think you're going to do great.
