I always thought the stock market was traded a lot with computers, but I was shocked to see on Fox Business News last week, that 85% of all stock trades are done by computer!  Wow!  Locally, a vice president of J.C. Penney, or maybe he is the president, I am not sure as I don’t […]

First of all, I wish you all, a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We all want to be safe.  It is with a desire to be safe, that we have locks on our cars and doors.  We have alarm systems on our homes and cars, and store our metals and documents in a safe […]

I love “Turner Classic Movies,” and a few days ago, a 1933 film called “Blessed Event” came on, and it was really funny.  It was a take-off of the late Walter Winchell, if any of you are old enough to remember him.  If not, he was a radio and newspaper columnist who was famous for […]

It simply had to happen, and it did.  I wore my computer out telling everyone that bit coin was a fraud, worthless, and to please stay away.  I hope you did, because now the bit coin has been faked, and faked beautifully.  Not only faked, but the official web site on bit coins has been […]

I constantly harp on saving in gold and silver, and it may get a bit boring to you, and I apologize for that.  However, there are some things in life, that are virtually, if not 99.999% impossible to happen.  Things such as the sun failing to rise, or water failing to seek its own level […]

A Wall Street Journal last week, reported that the Treasury indicates ‘everything is doing as it should, with inflation at 2.3%, which is where we want it.’  If you have a slow leak in a tire, obviously something is wrong.  If you have a small leak in your roof, it needs fixing.  If your faucet […]

From page 35 of Dr. Pick’s pamphlet, we find some history as well as some advice.  “America’s first currency exchange concerned the old Continental dollar.  The Continental was first issued in 1775, with the promise of redemption in hard money.  The promised redemption never took place, and within six years, the quotation was 500 or […]

I have a couple thousand books, and read 50-60 every year.  I guess I am read freak.  I keep my supply even, by constantly donating read books to worthy causes, or my house would be full of books.  At any rate, I recently came across a little booklet by famous economist Dr. Franz Pick, 1898-1985.  […]

I never make a prediction…until now anyway.  Despite the fact that no one can tell what can happen, even ten minutes from now, but November 6th is mid-term elections, and in this case, I think I can do a bit of predicting.  Not who will control the Congress, because time will tell, but depending whether […]

My phone rang yesterday, 10/18/18, and an elderly gentleman told me he had bought metals from me years ago, was glad to hear my voice again, and sorry to bother me, but he just wanted to ask me a question.  No problem, of course. The question was, “Are you having any trouble getting gold and […]
