Michael MaloneyGuide To Investing in Gold & Silver: Protect Your Financial Future

Excellent book on financial systems. Requires some efforts to understand but it all worth it.

This book is very useful and full of valuable information.

I read this book(including cover page first word to last page last word).

If you can ignore the not-so-subtle sales pitch to his investment website, this is a pretty good educational book. Michael Maloney is “Gold bug” and the problem with “Gold bugs” is that they sound like borderline conspiracy theorist; some certainly are. But the real problem with them is that most of what they say is true. We live in a fraudulent financial system which is designed by the bankers, for the bankers and of the bankers.This is more of an educational/history book than a guide to investing on precious metal. Economist always obfuscate simple terms with technical jargons. But the book really succeeds in breaking down those jargons in simple term for the average reader.Precious metal has got a bad PR in the mainstream media. People often vilify precious metal saying it doesn’t earn dividend, incurs storage cost and boring form of investment. Maloney presents a good case for Gold and Silver.I was surprise to learn on the level of manipulation of gold and silver price in the market due to Gold/Silver leasing and some ETFs charge money for storage fees without actually backing physical asset.Here are some interesting facts which I learned.• Gold reserves will be exhausted in 30 years and Silver will be exhausted in 25 years.• Silver is much scarcer than gold. Silver is yet to surpass the all-time high price in 1980.• If you are planning to invest in Gold and Silver using dollar-cost average, you can use gold/silver ratio to decide which one to buy.• Unlike gold, silver has got good industrial utility and hence its scarcity will play a big role in the future.• China is both the largest producer and the biggest importer of gold. And has strict control over exporting gold.Although Maloney’s criticism on the current monetary system is aimed at presenting gold as an alternative money, the case seems to be better fitted for Bitcoin (not crypto) which combines technology and scarcity with a mathematical precision. I was not surprised learn to the author has invested significantly in Bitcoin. Overall this is a good primer for investing in precious metal.

The best book i hv ever read

The best investment you can make, in your lifetime is your financial education.- Mike Maloney

Eye opener

Very good book to learn about gold and silver as trusty assets to invest on.

Book provides a history on the rise and fall of civilizations, how they go from real money to fiat currency, collapse, then the next empire pulls a rinse'n' repeat act. Most of the western world nations are drowning in debt, their central banks have money printing orgies that misappropriate and redirect wealth from the 99.9% citizenry to the 0.1% parasitoid elites. This book explains this, how the taxed citizenry is used as milkcows, and when governments want more, they use you as a beefcow. This book will be one of the best ways for people to understand what's going on in terms of governments weaponizing your tax dollars against you, and also how central banks weaponize your dollars purchasing power against you when they expand the money supply. You will understand how banks, governments, stock markets, paper-related assets, and how exchanges paper-manipulate the physical mining supplies of gold/silver and why it's important to have "in your hands" physical bullion (both gold/silver).

Although the most recent version of the book dates to 2015, it is very relevant today and is the most complete guide you will need if you are thinking of buying gold and/or silver. Full of relevant information, facts and figures without being too technical or long-winded.

Quizas el papel del libro podría haber sido de mejor calidad, da la sensación de tener un libro baratero en las maños.

It is a good book for the ones who are begginners in metals investment. Dividing the book in three simple sections: Why silver and gold prices will rise up and why to save on them, the possible future or predictions of gold and silver prices and the inevitable faith of currency, and finally how to invest in precious metals and do's and dont's while investing on them.Still, I think that the book has a plenty of investing terms that freshers in these things would feel confused. Anyway, I think the book is driven to convince beginners (not newbies) that gold and silver are the best way to save for the future.
