The economy is weaker than advertised. The BLS and other government agencies are no longer even pretending to tell the truth and aren’t ashamed to be colossally wrong as long as the errors help support the idea that things are better than they really are.

Creak! Pop! Join Chris & Paul for another revelatory and insightful romp through the world of popping financial rivets and newly sprung holes in the monetary dike. This week, the yen, gold and what the prospect of sharply higher interest rates would mean for investors.

Dive into the world of economic truths with us on this week’s Finance University, as Paul and I unravel the deeper impact of inflation beyond the government’s portrayal.

Every investor needs to carefully consider the implications of gold’s recent breakout. It all began on Feb 28th, 2022 when the US seized Russia’s sovereign assets. The rest of the world seems to be saying “message received!” and this will greatly complicate an already precarious US fiscal situation.

The US is on a fiscally unsustainable path, which has dire implications. Tough words, but they aren’t mine, they are those of the US Treasury Department. Those who can absorb these ideas and respond early tot heir implications have the best chance at a more prosperous future.

Do you find it tough to make financial decisions these days? You’re not alone…

With countries in recession amidst companies reporting record highs, how long do we have before bubbles start to burst? Because nobody knows, you should have a plan and remember that it’s always better to be early than late.
