What Do You Safe In ?

As a Storehouse of Value, Cash has Failed Miserably

Back on November 7 of last year, $100,000 would have bought you ...

  • 119.97 ounces of gold; today it will buy you only 102.56 ounces. In other words, your cash buys you 14.52% less gold today than it did just three months ago.

  • 1,037.66 barrels of oil; today it will buy you just 981.93 barrels. Your cash has lost 5.37% when it comes to the price of oil.

  • 12,694.38 bushels of wheat; today you can scoop up only 9,319.66 bushels for the same $100k. That's a loss of 26.58% in just three months!

In Four Years, Each of Your Dollars Will Be Worth

Two Measly Quarters and One Lousy Dime!

Sure, there will be occasional rallies in the value of the dollar. As a matter of fact, we may soon see one that lasts a few months.

But even so, there's still absolutely no doubt in my mind whatsoever that the U.S. dollar will lose another 40% of its value in the next four years. ( Larry Edelson )
