  • The price of energy, food and more are headed skyward! Inflation has arrived! The economy is in the tank and someone is getting rich, and ain't you. And despite the Fed's outright denial, inflation has arrived with a vengeance. The 1970's stagflation years are being re-played. It could get much worse, before it gets better. You need to protect yourself from a collapsing dollar and preserve your standard of living. Our government wants inflation to get out from under unsustainable debt, Wall Street does not have your back, and traditional investment strategies alone, will not work. You must understand what you are up against and take approriate action. Like the 1970s, those owning gold, commodities, real estate and other hard assets, will beneift from catastrophe. You need to inflation-proof personal and retirement portfolios and profit with proven financial techniques and appropriate alternative investments including: 
  • Self-directed retirement accounts - Which provide investors direct control over how their retirement funds are managed, and IRAs can be invested in an assortment of alternative assets.
  • Real estate - Banks are not lending and Washington's mismanagement have transformed us into a "Rental-Nation". At today’s low prices, rentals can get positive cash-flow. Some investors are profitting big with rentals in energy resource-rich regions, here in the U.S. and abroad.
  • Swiss annuities - Little known, these iron-clad investments are available to all American investors, and backed by the strongest currency in the world, the Swiss franc. Swiss currency has been appreciating agaiinst the dollar for the last 30 years.
  • Gold and precious metals - Coins, bullion, exchange traded funds, and more, provide a time-tested inflation protection. As the dollar continues its predictable decline, gold and silver all rise.
  • Commodities - Have you noticed the price of gas, food? Oil, industrial metals, agricultural resources, etc., all hedge against inflation. Forget the futures market. ETFs make the commodity investing easy. As prices go, these investments typically appreciate with inflation.
  • Currencies - Currency investing, yes, but not through the complex FOREX. Holding a commodity-based currency ETF, such as the strong Australian or Canadian dollar, makes a lot of sense.
