EUROPE RUNNING OUT OF GOLD AND SILVER! CONFISCATION OR TAXAT

This is a letter written and was delivered to me by US Mail on Saturday.

Will the US follow Europe down the Rabbit Hole?
Will PM crash and burn like in Oct 2008 before they run up to stratospheric levels or will the US employ ancient confiscation methods that failed in 1933.

Or just mabe a new VAT tax with PM being taxed at 25%-50%?

What can be done to save the US and now the World from financial ruin?



It is very upsetting to see that this manipulation is taking place. My business partner and I knew that something was wrong when there was no silver at the refinery and was told to by the silver on our fine account until some came in. this is a sad time, the banks are going to get away from the problem and leave the people struggling with paper currency. they have got a bargin. be sure that the silver price is going to rise, as soon as the banks get into the ark of silver two by two.

INVEST 500oz SILVER TO BUY A HOUSE? - Mike Maloney

"In 1980, it took 1000oz of silver to buy a single family median price home, that day will come again but it's probably going to be less than 500oz. This opportunity isn't going to last for long...there are these brief moments that go by, as far as historic time, they go by in the blink of an eye...where the safest place to be, the place where people run to, to protect their financial well being during economic crisis, gold and silver, they have been the safe haven for your finances for 5000 years. And there are these brief moments in history where they simultaneously become the asset class that has the single greatest potential gains in absolute purchasing power...and we're in one of those RIGHT NOW." - Mike Maloney



Im hoping it does go to 30:1, its made a good year end high which is a good sign & certainly the investment demand is increasing as the word spreads. I managed to get hold of four series 1 lunar kilos in January 2008 at £250 each, they would easily sell for £750- £800 each now, im thinking this time next year they will be a £1000 each. Silvers up 75% in 2010 compared to golds 25%. Id prefer silver as its cheap as chips still & anyone can start investing with around $35.

Why Silver Will Be a Better Investment than Gold

Why Silver Will Be a Better Investment than Gold

The investment potential of silver is hugeWhile gold is and always has been money, and its status as the ultimate preserver of wealth is untouchable, in the coming years silver promises to be a significantly more lucrative investment than gold. There are a few reasons for this.

According to (fairly) recent surveys, there are around 400 million ounces of silver bullion in the world versus 2 billion ounces of gold bullion. That means there the supply of gold bullion is 5 times greater than the supply of silver bullion. If we include coinage that can be melted down into bullion, then the supply of gold is three times greater than the supply of silver, with 1 billion ounces of silver and 3 billion ounces of gold. So silver the amount of silver available for use is much smaller than the amount of gold available.

The global supply of gold increases by about 2% per year, largely because gold is normally recycled and reused. But silver has many industrial uses, and silver is largely not reusable, so every year there is a supply deficit. Even in years of low demand, the supply of newly mined silver falls short of demand by about 70 million ounces. In years of high demand, it may fall short by as much as 200 million ounces. These deficits need to be taken out of the existing silver supplies above ground, which are therefore being depleted. Demand for silver has been outstripping supplies for 15 years straight, and there is no sign of this reversing.

In addition to those simple realities of supply and demand, the case of silver is complicated by some of the financial funny business that goes on in this world (which we've seen plenty of over the past year and a half). One of those funny things is the existence of unbacked silver certificates. Silver certificates are like IOUs that indicate that you have paid for an ounce of silver, and these certificates are supposed to be redeemable for physical silver. There are one billion of these certificates out there. But remember -- there are only 400 million ounces of silver bullion in the world. So what happens when the price of silver increases and people want to convert their certificates? A big shortage will occur, and that will send the price of silver soaring even higher.

Another bit of funny business is that there is a massive short position in silver that greatly exceeds the supply of physical silver. When you short an investment, it means that you borrow it and sell it now while the price is high, and you buy it back later when the price is lower. The problem is that when everybody goes to buy back the silver they have shorted, there won't be enough! There are approximately 508 million ounces of silver shorted on NYMEX, but there is only 132 million ounces of supply. Remember that worldwide, there is only 400 million ounces of silver bullion in existence, less than the amount that is shorted on NYMEX. When these people all go to cover their short positions then the rediculous degree of the silver shortage will become apparent.

For all of these reasons and others, silver is destined to be an amazing investment opportunity over the years to come. While gold will protect you from currency devaluation, silver will help you multiply your wealth, if you are significantly invested in it.

Buy Silver Bars For The Long Term

Buy Silver Bars For The Long Term

Buying Physical silverToday I made a purchase of 2 kilograms of silver bullion, and I was once again reminded of one of the necessary evils of precious metals investing: the buy/sell spread. The buy/sell spread refers to the different between the price you pay when you buy the metal, versus the price you will be paid if you are selling your metal back. You've probably experienced something similar if you've ever changed money into a foreign currency for a trip. The buy and sell prices are different. This is, of course, to the benefit of the dealer and essentially amounts to a service charge.

All precious metal bullion bars and coins are sold with some kind of spread, because this is what keeps the dealers in business. The spread depends on the kind of metal, and also on the size increment that you buy. The smaller the unit, the larger the markup. A tiny 5 gram gold bar can have a spread of 25%, and 1 ounce bullion coins can have a spread of around 15%, while a 1 kilogram bar currently worth around $30,000 may have a markup of just 1 or 2 %.

But compared to the other precious metals, the buy sell spread on silver is very wide, exceeding 10%. Today I purchased my silver at Ishifuku Metals in Osaka, Japan.
The silver spot price in Japanese yen was approximately 35,000 yen (currently 392.962 US dollars) per kilogram of silver. The sell price was over 39,000 yen (currently 438.156 US dollars) per kg, while their buy price was either the spot price or very close to it. That's a spread of around 11.5%!

Buying bulk silver ingotsOn top of that there are service charges. At Ishifuku Metals there was a service charge of 5200 yen per 1 kg bar, so in total 10,400 yen. So to obtain 2 kilograms of silver whose spot price was around 70,000 yen, I wound up paying close to 90,000 yen, or around 28.5 % more than the spot price. So to turn a profit on my silver purchase, silver will have to increase in value by over 28.5 %. So why did I buy it? Because it's an investment that I intend to hold for the future, and I am confident that the price of silver will grow exponentially in future years. I have no intentions of trading silver and buying and selling it regularly. For that I would focus on silver stocks or silver ETFs (electronically traded funds). But for a secure investment in my future wealth, I want to own physical precious metals. By the way, you don't always have to pay these extra transaction costs, but in Japan they seem to be the norm unless you buy 30 kg bars or more.

Why does silver have a much larger buy/sell spread and higher transaction feeds than gold? It probably has to do with the low price of silver for its weight. At current prices, an ounce of gold costs about the same as 2 kilograms of silver. Even though an ounce of gold and 2 kg of silver sell for somewhere around the same price, it costs a lot more to store and transport the silver because of its size and weight. Hence the higher transaction fees. I suspect that the wide spread is also a reflection of the current silver shortage, and growing investor demand for silver which results in the dealer having to run around and order some for you rather having it on stock.

Gold buying selling bullion bars at Ishifuku KinzokuWhen buying gold the buy/sell spread and fees are much lower than for silver. But you should still be aware of them when you buy physical gold, and you should think twice if you intend to buy gold, silver or other precious metals in order to quickly sell them when the price swings upward. The spread and transaction fees make this impractical. If you want to trade precious metals, buying on the dips and selling on the peaks, a precious metals ETF or mining stock may be the way to go instead.

David Morgan Interviews David Wolfin President of Avino Silver

Avino Silver & Gold Mines is an experienced, Vancouver based mining and exploration firm with properties in Mexico and Canada.

The company's primary goal is to reactivate the Avino silver-gold-copper-zinc-lead mine in Mexico, which Avino operated for 27 years beginning in 1974. Low metal prices and the closure of a key smelter forced the operation to close in 2001.

Current metal markets and high-grade discoveries on the property's San Gonzalo vein have greatly improved the economics and feasibility for potential production.

Since 2007, Avino has invested in extensive rehabilitation and modernization of the mill. A 10,000-tonne bulk sample in 2010 is expected to move the project closer to a production decision.

Hiding Gold and Silver and keeping it safe from Metal detectors



Thing is is that if i found a new age (within 10 year pop can, and tinfoil that looks that clear, im going to ask myself,,, what is this new stuff doing so deep? I'd dig alot deeper.

IF YOU DIG A HOLE 12000 METERS DEEP TO HIDE YOUR SILVER COIN IT WILL BE THERE WHEN YOU DIG IT UP . I  GUARANTEE IT.
Another good idea might be to bury the silver near a gas/water main / pipe this way when the govt goes door to door trying to steal your silver to fun the banks takeover they will hit your gas/water/electric main ^^ and get the shock of a lifetime.

Mike Maloney Vlog from Paris : Dont Blame Capitalism


http://www.wealthcycles.com At France's Charles De Gaulle Airport, preparing to depart for the next leg of his international tour, a magazine headline catches Michael Maloney's attention: "Ravages of Neo-Capitalism." The headline reflects the popular mindset—that it is capitalism and free markets that are to blame for all the recent global economic chaos, wealth inequities, trade imbalances and more. But, as Mike points out, you can't logically blame free-market capitalism when free markets and capitalism are not being allowed to function freely.

Bankrupt IMF completes gold sale (30Dec10)

The bankrupt IMF (better known as "International Money Fund") has completed it's sale of 400Tonnes of gold it allegedly had.



Selling gold to suppress the gold price. An old trick. Lets hope that the buyers have brains enough to insist upon delivery to their country, rather than allowing the IMF to 'store' it for them in an account.

Chinese consumers rushing to buy Silver amd Gold in China even at record high price

25th September 2010
International gold prices rallied to record highs on Friday, with spot prices nearing US$1300 an ounce. China's gold prices followed the trend and continued to climb. But consumer enthusiasm hasn't been affected.
It's China's traditional gold rush. The peak season for gold sales coincides with the two national holidays.

Impacted by a weaker US dollar and holiday consumption, international gold prices hit record highs.
In China,the price of pure gold exceeded 340 yuan per gram (?). But consumer enthusiasm is just as high as the gold prices. One resident said "For us, the price is very high. But we need to buy gold now since the price continues to increase." Consumers have flooded into gold shops, to find their perfect accessory.

Liu Ru, Sales Manager of Gold Shop said "Chinese people share a concept. That is to buy gold when the price is climbing. Since now it is holiday, many customers buy gold accessories as presents for relatives and friends. And also it is wedding season, increasing gold demand."

Silver prices have also soared, and even reached a 30-year high... making investments in the grey metal more attractive than ever. Analysts say the continuous decline of the US dollar has stimulated investors to choose safe
haven products such as gold. And with high consumption and investment demand, gold prices will continue to rise in coming days.

Chinese swapping yuan paper notes for physical gold bars

Chinese TV has been giving extensive coverage to the rush of Chinese investors buying physical bars of gold they are now the biggest gold purchasers in the world. If savvy Chinese investors sense their economy is slowing down, it probably is.

Another reason is the property market. Housing speculators from southeastern China are switching their money from property into gold following government restrictions on the real estate market

China encouraging citizens to buy Silver and Gold

This broadcast is dated September 2009, nothing new but something to seriously ponder over. Silver price is poise to rise dramatically. Why?

Prior year 2002, the private ownership of gold was prohibited in China but since early 2009, the Chinese government has been promoting aggressively the ownership of silver and gold to its citizens through China's Central Television, the main state-owned television company. Locals can buy silver bullion or gold bars at any Chinese bank in four different sizes

Why is the government doing this? What is their agenda?

Ponder over this -

The global annual mine production for silver stands at 860 million ounces. Population of China is 1.3 Billion. Even if half, 650 million, were to buy a minimum of one ounce every month, that is enough to cause a price increase. If the Chinese citizens are indeed beginning to buy gold and silver, then this has to be a strong indication that prices are going to rise dramatically in the relatively near future.

China is the only country in the world now that promotes gold and silver to their citizens.

If the Chinese are buying silver it means silvers worth buying. The Chinese citizens are big savers who save a big % of their salaries. Now they're allowed to buy silver the investments they make will be enormousthe government is pushing silver and gold as wise investment vehicles for the Chinese worker. The #1 reason why silver will reach a triple digit spot price is the China factor.....
