I am spending the next month in seclusion except for gold and silver business, and writing my next book, “Illusions of Wealth” which the timing for couldn’t be better.

Over the past year and a half, I have written many articles on investing in gold and silver, and been one of the few who have told clients continually to dollar cost average into a position during this time-frame, hoping the price goes lower so they get an overall better price.

It goes against all conventional wisdom for a gold dealer to caution investors on the price of gold and silver moving lower. There are literally trillions of reasons why the price of gold and silver will move higher in the years to come, including a multitude of unsustainable future government obligations.
