Mining Stocks vs Physical Gold and Silver - Mike Maloney

Silver mining costs are below those of Gold , Silver is incredibly under valued says Mike Maloney, author of Rich Dad's Guide to Investing in Gold and Silver, predicted $15,000 gold but think silver offers more upside over the long term.“The world is going to rush into gold, but just like at the end of ’79, once it gets too expensive for the common man, which I believe is somewhere between $2,500 and $5,000 an ounce this time, the public changes their preference and they start noticing that silver is still cheap, and they start buying silver. That’s when silver blows the doors off of gold on a percentage basis just like in ’79.”
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.


Mike Maloney explains the difference between investing in physical gold and silver and investing in gold mining stocks , which ones may give better returns , be careful with numismatics and small junior miners

Meanwhile the ship announcer (media) is telling everyone that help is on the way. Do we really believe this? Its simple , put your life jacket on and get ready.


i vote to go on a silver standard. have only silver banks, no paper money. paper has to backed by silver only. all coins to have 90 percent silver in them We weren't on a classical gold standard during the 1920s. Rothbard: "Over the entire period of the boom, we find that the money supply increased by $28.0 billion, a 61.8 percent increase over the eight-year period. This is an average annual increase of 7.7 percent, a very sizable degree of inflation. Total bank deposits increased by 51.1 percent, savings and loan shares by 224.3 percent, and net life insurance policy reserves by 113.8 percent."
