The Power of Gold in the 21st Century with Ben Mitchell

I've heard it so many times.

When it comes to physical gold–I'm talking coins, bars, rounds, and so on–many economists out there disparage it as nothing more than a relic.

But are they right? Is gold truly nothing more than a relic?

In this episode of The Word on Investing, I address two things head on: 1. The idea that gold is actually a preferable currency for the majority of people, but why many people MIGHT NOT even realize it. And 2. Why gold ACTUALLY carries an enormous amount of power in the 21st Century, and why it's NOT some ancient relic!

Gold acts as a protector against loose monetary policies, something we're all too familiar with at this point.

In fact, not only is gold a protector, but it was put here by the Lord Himself as the purest form of money, ever–which should tell us something about gold's potentially pivotal importance in each of our lives.

I want to help you understand the power of gold, and simplify precious metals as much as possible for you and your family.

In this episode I'll cover

• How our MONEY preferences were involuntarily changed 5 decades ago, and how it has altered our perception of value.

• Promises that were made (and broken) by our government, and the performance of our money ever since.

• Where our sense of the value of money comes from (this might scare you…)
• How Russia saved their currency's worth by literally stockpiling gold for decades (wait, but I thought it was just an ancient relic, right?!)
• Why Gold is the "great reset button" for civilizations of the past AND present and how it can do the same for you and your individual family.
