1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: What we're doing is we're going in there under the

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:07,719
guy's liberation or American freedom, which I'm still trying to

3
00:00:07,719 --> 00:00:10,599
figure out. How does that American freedom if you would,

4
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:14,359
But then it's welfare in the sense of like, okay,

5
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,679
we just supposedly I say this with air quotz cleaned

6
00:00:17,679 --> 00:00:20,839
house or put our friendly ruler in there, and then

7
00:00:20,839 --> 00:00:24,039
we prop them up with US taxpayer money.

8
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,160

15
00:00:56,119 --> 00:01:00,000
Carrie Letz and got a special guest for you today.

16
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,439
Hey Andy Millette. Andy, I just came across recently. Our

17
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,599
paths should have crossed many years before, but you know

18
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:08,719
that is life.

19
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:09,519
Speaker 4: Andy.

20
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:14,239
Speaker 3: You have been a commodities broker, a trader in the nineties,

21
00:01:15,159 --> 00:01:20,000
great reputation there. You built natural resource stocks to deliver

22
00:01:20,239 --> 00:01:24,359
in depth value driven analysis, a lot of info that

23
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:29,120
you can't get elsewhere your podcast up there in the stratosphere.

24
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,079
I'm really thrilled to have you on the show. Background wise,

25
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:38,120
you're pretty much impeccable looking at the financial house of

26
00:01:38,239 --> 00:01:42,000
cards that we're confronted with. Now, what is the biggest

27
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,760
thing that you're concerned with right now?

28
00:01:44,239 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, great question, Thank you. I'm very happy to be here.

29
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:53,359
You know, there's a lot of concerns, but I would

30
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:58,439
say probably more than likely in inflation. Runaway Inflation's probably

31
00:01:58,519 --> 00:02:01,599
my biggest concern because I think what's going to happen

32
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,719
is it's just very inevitable that they have to print money,

33
00:02:06,879 --> 00:02:09,560
meaning the government serves the central banks from amrale the

34
00:02:09,599 --> 00:02:12,199
world to prop up the system. So if you were

35
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,479
to put a you know which you are just asking me,

36
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,960
what's my number one concern, it wo'd be runaway inflation.

37
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 3: So yeah, it reminds me there was a commercial from

38
00:02:22,719 --> 00:02:26,199
McDonald's I think it was in the eighties and.

39
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 4: This kid goes to.

40
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 3: Father daddy, what's inflation And he goes, son, that's when

41
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,879
the price of everything goes up and your daddy's pay

42
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,000
stays the same. And I have searched andy for that

43
00:02:41,039 --> 00:02:45,120
commercial on the internet, scoured every archive. The only thing

44
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,199
I haven't done is gone to the actual Museum of

45
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,840
Advertising in New York to find it because it's a classic.

46
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're into Austrian economics. I am.

47
00:02:56,319 --> 00:03:00,319
Speaker 3: We always knew that inflation was going to come backing

48
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,000
back with a vengeance. We didn't know from pandemics, we

49
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,039
didn't know from you know, wars or whatever. But the

50
00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:12,360
most inflationary event on the planet is a war, right.

51
00:03:12,599 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: Right, Well, that would be really my second biggest concern,

52
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,759
and you can even put it at my first. It's

53
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,960
just really all of these wars that are happening all

54
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,719
across the world and really, and I should I should

55
00:03:25,759 --> 00:03:28,159
rephrase that the worlds that the wars that we are

56
00:03:28,199 --> 00:03:31,080
involved in or that we're starting, that is a huge

57
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,560
concern to mine. And it's just like, what are we doing?

58
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,439
And what I think is what's going on is just

59
00:03:37,479 --> 00:03:40,800
a big money laundering scheme really for a bunch of

60
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:45,159
other garcic elites here in the US. So and then

61
00:03:45,159 --> 00:03:48,319
it comes back as inflationary if you would, as you

62
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:48,960
alluded to.

63
00:03:49,639 --> 00:03:52,719
Speaker 3: So I'm writing a book right now, and I've written

64
00:03:53,039 --> 00:03:56,800
four books in the past year, and this one is

65
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:57,280
going to be.

66
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,879
Speaker 4: Entitled war really is a rack.

67
00:04:00,599 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 3: Taking a judge, General Smedley Butler's a common reframe war

68
00:04:06,199 --> 00:04:10,719
as a racket because I'm tracing corruption in World War two.

69
00:04:11,199 --> 00:04:15,000
Never been a book written about all the defense contractors

70
00:04:15,039 --> 00:04:19,360
that got rich, all of the fact that, like my

71
00:04:19,439 --> 00:04:23,240
father was a hump pilot flew over the Himalayas from

72
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,480
India to China shipping materials, and that half of them

73
00:04:27,519 --> 00:04:31,920
wound up on the black market. And nobody talks about this.

74
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:37,120
War is the most profitable endeavor on the planet for

75
00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:42,680
a few, and like Smedley Butler says, it's profits the few,

76
00:04:43,079 --> 00:04:47,000
but it's paid for by the many in blood and treasure.

77
00:04:47,639 --> 00:04:51,800
And that's why these wars go on. There's no other reason.

78
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,680
It's like, yeah, these tribal things. Everybody's hated everybody since

79
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:01,600
the beginning of time. We've always been fighting. Now war

80
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:07,879
has become an economic system, the welfare warfare state, right.

81
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I would agree with you on that, And

82
00:05:12,399 --> 00:05:15,879
that's exactly what it is. It's a welfare state in

83
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,959
the sense of I see it as what we're doing

84
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,800
is we're going in there under the guy's liberation or

85
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,319
American freedom which I'm still trying to figure out. How

86
00:05:26,319 --> 00:05:30,199
does that American freedom, if you would, But then it's

87
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,160
welfare in the sense of like, okay, we just supposedly

88
00:05:34,199 --> 00:05:36,439
I say this with air quod's cleaned house, or put

89
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,439
our friendly ruler in there, and then we prop them

90
00:05:39,519 --> 00:05:45,959
up with US taxpayer money and our companies, if you

91
00:05:45,959 --> 00:05:49,199
went US domestic companies get all the contracts to rebuild

92
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,639
the country, if you would. So it's absolutely racket and

93
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,319
a corporate welfare, if you went in country welfare all

94
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,920
by the US taxmaker. It's not only is it evil

95
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:04,240
because it's killing people, but it's just destroying, if you would, cultures,

96
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,560
destroying countries, and it's because of really just at the

97
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:13,040
whim of really the profit for a few Elepe few

98
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:13,720
Elipe people.

99
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 3: So yeah, the whole group of them, the deep state,

100
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:18,800
the deep.

101
00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:20,399
Speaker 4: State, it was called that absolutely.

102
00:06:21,199 --> 00:06:23,639
Speaker 3: So I had a client when I was an attorney.

103
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,040
I think it was on one fifty or one sixty Broadway.

104
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:33,120
On the ground floor of that building was Brown Brothers, Harryman.

105
00:06:32,759 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 4: And Tweed I think was the name of it.

106
00:06:35,399 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 3: That was the bank of the Deep State in the

107
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,879
late eighteen hundreds up to World War one. Prescott Bush

108
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:49,519
was a partner in Brown Brothers Harryman. Yes, and he

109
00:06:49,639 --> 00:06:52,560
was also a director of the Union Bank, which was

110
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,000
seized by the government in nineteen forty two for trading

111
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:02,120
with the enemy. So it's a game, it's a scam

112
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,959
and it profits. Hey, but Boeing loves it, Raytheon loves it.

113
00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:11,399
All the defense contractors love it. In World War two,

114
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:16,439
like you know, GM was making tanks and Ford was

115
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,519
making you know whatever. Like when you get into a

116
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:26,199
war economy, everything else takes a back seat. Consumers people,

117
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:31,399
it's all about total war. And man, it's just the

118
00:07:31,399 --> 00:07:35,079
biggest scam here ever. And I don't blame you for

119
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:41,560
being concerned, but and this is parasitic behavior too. It's

120
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:47,560
the parasite there living off of us the host, right, Yeah, no,

121
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:48,959
And I think.

122
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,439
Speaker 1: That's exactly that's a great way of looking at it actually,

123
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,439
and it's it's and it's not so much of a concern.

124
00:07:56,639 --> 00:08:01,079
And maybe I should be about total annihilation because that

125
00:08:01,319 --> 00:08:06,040
would that would destroy the profit. Right, So what you

126
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:12,839
need is a war. So it's something that drags on continually, continually, continually,

127
00:08:12,959 --> 00:08:16,079
so you're always at war. And so that's really my

128
00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:21,279
concern really again inflation and war, just a continual war,

129
00:08:21,519 --> 00:08:24,759
always going being at war. And it's not only the

130
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,319
profit motive and the economics of it, it's just so

131
00:08:28,439 --> 00:08:32,639
messed up, but also just the destruction of again going

132
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,120
back to just destruction of life. And if you speak

133
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,960
out about war unpatriotic, you're somehow you're going to get

134
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:45,159
a label of something about, yeah, not being for the servicemen,

135
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,759
not being for the country or whatever, when the reality is,

136
00:08:48,799 --> 00:08:52,080
I'm from a military family. I didn't serve in the military,

137
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,519
but only the brothers did. And you know what they did,

138
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,840
tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, and you know what they

139
00:08:58,879 --> 00:09:03,000
are against war to war there against war, So.

140
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 3: Which we all should be, like we said, it serves

141
00:09:08,039 --> 00:09:12,360
the a few, you know, at the expense of the many.

142
00:09:12,519 --> 00:09:17,320
So what do you think people should be doing. What

143
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,480
should you be doing to protect your wealth, to ensure

144
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:27,080
against the inflation, obviously precious metals, cryptos. What's your take?

145
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, let me take.

146
00:09:28,759 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: Even a step back a little further than that. I

147
00:09:32,039 --> 00:09:36,879
had Gerald Cialente on my show probably three months ago,

148
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,120
four months ago, and I asked him the question what

149
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:43,960
should you do? And you made a great insight that

150
00:09:44,039 --> 00:09:47,480
I've stuck with me, and it's the first thing I

151
00:09:47,519 --> 00:09:49,279
think you need to do is take care of your

152
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,639
your and this is I take this from him. Take

153
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,759
care of your soul and take care of your body,

154
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:59,519
meaning just live a good, righteous life. That's the first

155
00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:01,759
thing we all can do. And the second thing is

156
00:10:01,879 --> 00:10:05,399
just make sure you're healthy, because if you're not healthy

157
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,399
and your mind and your spirit's not right, nothing really

158
00:10:08,399 --> 00:10:10,679
else is going to matter. And you can't really accomplish

159
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,840
anything or do anything. You can't defend yourself or protect

160
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,399
yourself or your family. So I think you need to

161
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,879
start there. The next thing I think you should do

162
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,919
is and not that I disagree with a lot of

163
00:10:23,919 --> 00:10:29,639
people I have on but I am not a person

164
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,519
that just goes all physical gold medal and you know,

165
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,360
you know, dig a hole on the ground and store it.

166
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,000
I'm not that person. I'm not actually on the spectrum

167
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,200
of doom and gloom. I'm not as doom and gloom

168
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,519
as a lot of my friends, and they are my front.

169
00:10:44,799 --> 00:10:47,360
But I do think you need to have at least

170
00:10:47,399 --> 00:10:51,399
five to ten percent of your wealth and physical and

171
00:10:51,519 --> 00:10:53,639
then I would not put that in your house for

172
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,639
safety reasons. You can either put in a safety deposit

173
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,200
box or I think in my talk with you last time,

174
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:04,600
you had a great idea in a casino, and I thought,

175
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,240
it is anudiable that does a great idea. I thought,

176
00:11:08,799 --> 00:11:12,679
but I think five to ten percent. Now that being said,

177
00:11:12,799 --> 00:11:15,720
I would literally have five to ten percent, I'd have

178
00:11:16,159 --> 00:11:19,000
forty to fifty percent of your wealth, your entire wealth

179
00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:23,480
in precious metals. That could be that could be physical,

180
00:11:23,519 --> 00:11:26,879
but it can also be the different ETF instruments if

181
00:11:26,919 --> 00:11:29,200
you would that are out there, it could be. Uh,

182
00:11:30,799 --> 00:11:32,399
there's a lot of things out there. Do your own,

183
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:36,080
dude diligence. And I get that from the year was

184
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,960
about two thousand and seven and I launched a hedge

185
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,159
fund and we had with a partner, I mean, he's

186
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,879
my current portfolio manager. And we had one investor is

187
00:11:45,919 --> 00:11:48,279
one of the richest families in Georgia, and we made

188
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,360
him a portfolio. We constructed a portfolio. We stress tested it.

189
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,440
Monte Carlos stress tested it, which is a gain, you know,

190
00:11:55,519 --> 00:12:00,720
stress which you play odds, you know, and really we

191
00:12:00,759 --> 00:12:03,799
took a very defensive posture and it's like worst case

192
00:12:03,799 --> 00:12:06,559
scenario is what happens best case scenario is what happens,

193
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:11,600
and what led us to our defensiveness was really about

194
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,879
fifty percent in gold. But again we had, Yeah, we

195
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,039
not only had, but that meant physical, that meant the

196
00:12:19,039 --> 00:12:21,279
different ETFs that were available at the time. It also

197
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:25,840
meant stocks, if you would. And he took the same

198
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,840
He took his portfolio or his money if you would,

199
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,279
the Goldman Sacks as well, and they came up with

200
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,120
the portfolio, and he divided his money in half. He

201
00:12:37,159 --> 00:12:39,360
gave half to Goldman Sacks and half to us, if

202
00:12:39,399 --> 00:12:42,399
you would, And that's how I launched my flot Yeah,

203
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:47,039
and we beat Goldman Sacks and we were safer. We

204
00:12:47,039 --> 00:12:47,879
were safer.

205
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 4: Agility was better, much better.

206
00:12:51,159 --> 00:12:54,399
Speaker 1: Sharp ratios was a much better. And it was because

207
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,120
we were parked in gold. Again, half of our half

208
00:12:57,159 --> 00:13:00,440
of his wealth or what he gave to us. Yeah,

209
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,879
and this be municipal bonds. We also had some bonds

210
00:13:04,879 --> 00:13:08,679
if you would, short term treasuries, which I'd also wouldn't.

211
00:13:08,919 --> 00:13:11,360
I would I recommend if they're short term, if you would,

212
00:13:12,159 --> 00:13:14,080
we had some cash and we had, you know, just

213
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,120
a typical lotment. But you know, he was so impressed

214
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,600
with that, and no in fact, and just because of

215
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,960
results fast forward to today, I would do the same,

216
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,960
very similar kind of portfolio where you have half of

217
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,639
your wealth in gold.

218
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 4: That's just me.

219
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,799
Speaker 1: It can be less than that, obviously, but and I

220
00:13:31,799 --> 00:13:34,039
would have at least five to ten percent in physical

221
00:13:34,919 --> 00:13:37,759
And that five to ten percent in physical is if

222
00:13:37,879 --> 00:13:40,399
things were to hit the fan, if it goes south

223
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,120
really really quick, which I'm not predicting, but you have

224
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,519
to look at it. That is a possibility. If you

225
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,519
wig you got it, you're going to have one to

226
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,559
have access to that. So that's what I would do.

227
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 3: Absolutely No. I couldn't agree with you more. Been always

228
00:13:55,639 --> 00:13:59,519
been a big fan of gold, precious metal silver. I

229
00:13:59,879 --> 00:14:03,000
like silver better than gold. Right now, what's your take?

230
00:14:03,039 --> 00:14:05,519
Do you think we're going to get a silver short squeeze?

231
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 4: Yeah?

232
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: No, so I guess you have to look at silver. Yes,

233
00:14:10,039 --> 00:14:11,559
I do think we're going to get that, but you

234
00:14:11,639 --> 00:14:14,559
have to look at why do you like it more?

235
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,440
If you're looking at just stability and not having the volatility,

236
00:14:18,519 --> 00:14:21,600
I like gold more. Just again, gold is boring if

237
00:14:21,639 --> 00:14:26,039
you are if you look at upside, I'd love silver.

238
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,559
I like love silver significantly more than I do gold.

239
00:14:29,879 --> 00:14:33,120
And I think it will outperform. Now the issue with

240
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,399
silver is again you have to stomach the volatility as

241
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,559
well as let's say we don't get a short squeeze, right,

242
00:14:40,679 --> 00:14:43,039
you know, within the near future, which I do think

243
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,039
we will. But let's say we don't, Gold will more

244
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,879
than likely still be outperforming silver if you would so, again,

245
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:55,039
looking at just possibilities, the whole spectrum to answer your question,

246
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,360
really just depends on the person. But if I'm looking

247
00:14:58,399 --> 00:15:01,639
at upside silver, celia like a lot more than gold.

248
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,759
If I'm looking at stability and usability, I'd like go more.

249
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 3: Okay, cryptocurrency I called them in the past kleptocurrencies, but

250
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,360
I've come around on bitcoin honestly.

251
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, yes, I am a believer. I am in

252
00:15:21,159 --> 00:15:23,480
that camp, but I don't own any. Just to be

253
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,960
full disclosure, And actually, Carrie, when I talked to you

254
00:15:27,039 --> 00:15:29,200
last you got me thinking more about it, and it

255
00:15:29,279 --> 00:15:31,480
wasn't and I mean this with all due respect to you,

256
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,600
it wasn't anything different. It just made me think about

257
00:15:34,759 --> 00:15:39,000
stuff that I already was reading and knew if you would, so,

258
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:45,559
to answer your question, I do like crypto. I don't

259
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,200
see it ever going away if it's me, I'm just

260
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,120
sticking with the big two, Bitcoin and ethereum.

261
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 4: It doesn't mean they're aren't any.

262
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,919
Speaker 1: Points out there. I as the wild West, which is

263
00:16:00,639 --> 00:16:03,120
you know, that's fine too, But I just can make

264
00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:06,039
a call on one coin or the other. I for myself,

265
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,480
and I'm not an investor, I would just stick with

266
00:16:08,519 --> 00:16:13,159
bitcoin and e theory in myself. But yes, so I am, yeah.

267
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 3: Because yeah, I'm just going to say the reason why

268
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:22,039
I feel like you're better off sticking with those two

269
00:16:22,799 --> 00:16:26,720
and particularly bitcoin Bitcoin, they're just not making any more

270
00:16:26,759 --> 00:16:31,840
of it, and the eventually it's digital gold, it's it's

271
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,480
going to go astronomical.

272
00:16:33,519 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 4: It already has you know, a million times.

273
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,639
Speaker 3: Your initial ten cent investment gives you one hundred and

274
00:16:39,679 --> 00:16:41,679
fifteen thousand dollars right now.

275
00:16:42,159 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 4: That's actually more than that.

276
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:50,039
Speaker 3: That's actually one million, one hundred fifty thousand times your

277
00:16:50,279 --> 00:16:55,879
original ten cent investment. But it could easily go ten

278
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,960
x one hundred x thousand x. There's nothing to pop it.

279
00:17:00,879 --> 00:17:06,720
And that's why if you had one hundred dollars in

280
00:17:06,759 --> 00:17:09,960
your pocket right now, if I had one hundred dollars,

281
00:17:10,039 --> 00:17:14,440
I can't give advice to the general public. Because God

282
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,559
forbid I should do that, They'll come break down my

283
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,640
door and I'll be banned from everything. I'll be deep

284
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,920
platformed for life. But if I had one hundred bucks,

285
00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:29,319
I put fifty into a roll of silver and fifty

286
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:34,640
into a bitcoin and wait ten years and maybe not

287
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,359
have a teugh to ever work again after that ten years.

288
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 4: Andy, Yeah, no, I don't.

289
00:17:39,519 --> 00:17:41,599
Speaker 1: I would say, I wouldn't disagree with you. You know,

290
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,559
that's exactly, That's exactly. And the thing is is, let's

291
00:17:44,599 --> 00:17:48,400
say if you play that out game that out Let's say,

292
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,640
and I don't believe this is going to happen, Let's

293
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,640
say Bitcoin does go to zero. Well, silver, you have

294
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,160
a hard like you have a physical physical asset. You're

295
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,920
going to make that up with silver if you would. Now,

296
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,519
let's say you hit it on both, which is highly

297
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:08,480
highly probable. You, as you said, you'll more than likely

298
00:18:08,519 --> 00:18:10,160
never have to work again in ten years.

299
00:18:10,519 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 4: So I would agree with you.

300
00:18:12,039 --> 00:18:15,759
Speaker 3: Yep, yep, for sure, because the last ten years have

301
00:18:15,839 --> 00:18:17,920
been in a lot of ups and downs and metals

302
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,039
but and it's been ups and downs in bitcoin. Two.

303
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 4: You know you have to buckle your seatbelt.

304
00:18:24,039 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 3: You could lose eighty percent of the value of your

305
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,920
coins literally in a week or two. But I think

306
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,480
that type of downward volatility. Look, they can still manipulate

307
00:18:34,559 --> 00:18:37,079
it through the ETFs. That's what they did last week.

308
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,920
They got it under one hundred and fifteen thousand by

309
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:45,759
triggering an outflow on the bitcoin ETFs is manufactured. At

310
00:18:45,759 --> 00:18:48,559
the same time, the whales, the big people are still buying.

311
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:53,200
You know, you're probably better better at observing that than me,

312
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:54,279
But that's my take.

313
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,599
Speaker 1: No, I would agree, Yeah, No, I think you hit

314
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,240
it on the head. And you could say the same

315
00:18:58,279 --> 00:19:01,000
thing about silver. They'll manipulate the silver etops and the

316
00:19:01,079 --> 00:19:03,960
gold etops to trigger a bunch of cells.

317
00:19:03,519 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 4: To yeah did it to last? Great?

318
00:19:06,279 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 1: You actually get it down.

319
00:19:07,559 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 4: So they did the headfake.

320
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 3: Two days before Options X, they knocked silver down a buck,

321
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,640
but they let it stay just over thirty eight Was

322
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:18,920
it thirty seven.

323
00:19:20,319 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 4: Seven?

324
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 3: Do just let it stay over thirty seven just to

325
00:19:24,519 --> 00:19:29,359
throw the throw the option holders a bone a nominal profit.

326
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,440
And then two days after then they so it was

327
00:19:34,519 --> 00:19:37,119
like right, it was at thirty nine and change, they

328
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,359
knocked it down to thirty eight ten, which makes it

329
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,960
almost the wash for the option holders and then two

330
00:19:44,039 --> 00:19:46,880
days later they got it down to like just under

331
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:51,160
