Peter Schiff – Buy Gold the Dollar is about to Collapse

peterSchiffnews@gmail.com — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 14:20:18 PST

Peter Schiff – interviewed by this week in money (14 January 2012 ) about where he sees the US dollar going " the dollar is not strong , it certainly has been less weak than the Euro recently , but both currencies are weak , gold tells you that , the price of gold is up not at a record yet but the trend is clear in the upward direction so I think both the dollar and the Euro are losing value currently the euro is losing it a little bit faster than the dollar , but I think in the long term the problems in the US are actually larger and more severe than the problems in Europe and I think are more dangerous to blow up in the short run so I think that the people are exaggerating the demise of the Euro not focusing on the more imminent demise of the dollar and in the process they are buying some extra time for the dollar because a lot of this European flight money is going into the US treasuries and that's allowing the US government to stimulate the economy more and the stimulus is the problem it is like a toxic drug and the more government stimulus we get the more sicker the real economy becomes "

Peter Schiff on how he started Euro Pacific Capital

peterSchiffnews@gmail.com — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 15:03:58 PST

Peter Schiff : The guy that started eToys lived in my apartment building in downtown Los Angeles. And I started my company, Euro Pacific Capital, about the same time he started his. He made a lot more money than I did, but he didn't make a profit. He never made a profit. But he made a lot of money because he found people to buy into his idea. And at one point, eToys was worth more than Toys "R" Us. I remember when I was trying to get clients, back when I was starting out at Euro Pacific Capital, and I was trying to get people to buy foreign stocks. And I remember one country I was active in was New Zealand, and I remember trying to convince people who owned shares of stocks, like Yahoo, why they should sell their Yahoo and buy a stock in New Zealand. I would point out that Yahoo was worth twice the entire country of New Zealand; every stock they had, all the real estate...- in a Mises institute speech

Peter Schiff : there is no safe haven in Currencies

peterSchiffnews@gmail.com — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 08:52:50 PST

Peter Schiff : ...it's not necessarily default. it's the fact the governments are going to pay but it's how they're going to pay. they're going to pay it by printing money. i think the u.s. is a bigger disaster than Europe, but all the central banks, the U.S., the ECB, the bank of Japan, bank of China, everybody is printing too much money. everybody has rates too low, and the world is looking for an alternative to currencies, not just the dollar or the euro, but the world -- people are going back to real money and not enough people have made that switch. most people are still clinging to the idea that there's a safe haven somewhere in currency. there is no safe haven in currencies. if you want to protect your wealth, if you want to store purchasing power, you can't do it in a currency. you need to own gold and most people are still clueless about that. and a lot of central banks still need to buy gold. if you look at gold as a percentage of reserves, it's near record low. , central banks have a lot of gold to buy - in CNBC

Peter Schiff : Our Economy grew more on a Gold Standard

peterSchiffnews@gmail.com — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 21:44:51 PST

Gold Standard Explained by Peter Schiff : Peter Schiff explains the fact that the interest rate is a price and that manipulation of that price results in real changes to the capital structure and structure of production within the economy, causing imbalances, booms, and eventually busts in the economy. His lecture also explores how government intervention through labor and employment policies results in diminished employment and an overall reduction in the standard of living.Austrian Economists are the only ones that make sense. The US and the world were hijacked by Keynesian statists at the beginning of the 20th century. The free market has been blamed for our current ills, when in fact it's the state and central planners at fault. It's time for people to take the power back in the 21st century!

To prepare, the average person who has no money to invest elsewhere, can stock up on food. Food is a commodity just like gold or any other comodity. If you have thirty jars of peanut butter you bought for 3 dollars each, and the dollar drops to the point a jar of peanut butter is thirty dollars, if it is even on the shelves, you will be able to focus on rent or energy because you already have food. You cannot lose unless food prices go down or the food spoils. It is security for marginal income.
