{"product_id":"gold-matters-real-solutions-to-surreal-risks","title":"Gold Matters: Real Solutions To Surreal Risks","description":"Two highly respected global authorities in macro-economic risk and precious metal investing, Egon\nvon Greyerz and Matthew Piepenburg, have co-authored a much-needed examination of gold as an\nessential wealth preservation asset in a modern setting of unprecedented financial risk. Never before\nhave financial systems been stretched this dangerously thin. Never before have investors faced a\nfuture of such epic change demanding immediate solutions.\n\nVon Greyerz and Piepenburg provide a clear, blunt yet fact-based case for significant and pending\nwealth destruction arising form a global convergence of historically unprecedented debt, market,\ncurrency and banking risk. Rather than sensationally assert such warnings, the authors of Gold\nMatters carefully examine each of these financial fault-lines with simple and graph-supported facts\nrather than dramatic declarations.\n\nVon Greyerz and Piepenburg open with an objective, reader-friendly yet largely ignored history of\ncentral bank and sovereign mismanagement of international monetary and fiscal policies,\ncharacterized today by the reckless expansion of the broad money supply to address unsustainable\n(as well as unprecedented) debt levels. Such distorted yet consistent policy errors (i.e., solving a\nrecord-breaking debt crisis with more debt) have led to the largest risk asset bubbles (stocks, bonds,\nproperty) ever recorded in the history of capital markets.\n\nAs history reminds: All bubbles pop, but the interim (and artificially stimulated) euphoria and extreme\ninflation of risk asset pricing placed the majority of retail investors into a dangerous and false\ncomplacency. Wall Street pundits, cornered policy makers and an increasingly discredited financial\nmedia have deliberately ignored and\/or downplayed the fatal patterns and consequences of such\ndesperate money creation to pay for equally desperate debt expansion, namely: The inevitable\narrival of wealth destroying inflation, serial market implosions, social fracturing and the classic\ndebasement of the currencies by which uninformed investors otherwise measure their accumulated\nwealth. In short, as currencies weaken, so does wealth.\n\nPhysical gold, often misunderstood as a “barbarous relic” of the past, is revealed in Gold Matters as\nan essential real asset in this distorted modern backdrop. With the calm of two market veterans\nsharing over 70 combined years of experience at the highest levels of enterprise management,\nglobal banking, hedge fund, and wealth management circles, von Greyerz and Piepenburg bring\nmuch-needed candor, expertise and perspective in identifying the obvious challenges investors face.\nAs importantly, they offer equally obvious solutions. As Zurich-based principals to the world’s largest\nprivate wealth management enterprise for ultra-affluent gold investors outside of the commercial\nbanking system, their experienced critique of, and solutions to, this broken financial system are\nbased on objective facts rather than subjective theory or bias.\n\nTheir deep understanding of precious metal solutions, hitherto reserved for only the world’s most\naffluent, are now shared openly for all investors seeking to be informed and prepared rather than\nanxious and uncertain. With great crisis comes great opportunity, and despite the clear risks and\nstruggles ahead, Gold Matters offers a sane and clear path to wealth generation and preservation in\nan otherwise volatile future setting marked by increasing wealth destruction and profound systemic\nchange.\n\nIf such themes, facts and solutions speak to your own instincts and interests, please scroll above\nand hit “buy now” to become a more informed—and hence prepared--investor.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0578288397\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: PKV.0578288397.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:von Greyerz, Egon|Piepenburg, Matthew|Williams, Grant|Stoeferle, Ronni\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: A well-loved companion.
