Overview

"Throughout the ages, many things have been used as currency: livestock, grains, spices, shells, beads, and now paper. But only two things have ever been money: gold and silver. When paper money becomes too abundant, and thus loses its value, man always turns back to precious metals. During these times there is always an enormous wealth transfer, and it is within your power to transfer that wealth away from you or toward you." --Michael Maloney, ...

Overview

"Throughout the ages, many things have been used as currency: livestock, grains, spices, shells, beads, and now paper. But only two things have ever been money: gold and silver. When paper money becomes too abundant, and thus loses its value, man always turns back to precious metals. During these times there is always an enormous wealth transfer, and it is within your power to transfer that wealth away from you or toward you." --Michael Maloney, precious metals investment expert and historian; founder and principal, Gold & Silver, Inc.

The Advanced Guide to Investing Gold and Silver tells readers:



  • The essential history of economic cycles that make gold and silver the ultimate monetary standard.
  • How the U.S. government is driving inflation by diluting our money supply and weakening our purchasing power
  • Why precious metals are one of the most profitable, easiest, and safest investments you can make
  • Where, when, and how to invest your money and realize maximum returns, no matter what the economy's state
  • Essential advice on avoiding the middleman and taking control of your financial destiny by making your investments directly.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal

Maloney (founder & principal, Gold & Silver Inc.) provides an excellent discussion of the history of the currency and trends of the precious-metals markets. Yet, though he states that investing in anything can be risky, his occasional use of hyperbole makes it sound as though he is actively selling the listener on precious metals. Christian Rummel's (The Gate House) reading is professional, well paced, and accent-free. An end-of-disc indicator would have been helpful; purchase where needed.
—Laurie Selwyn

    Highly recommended

    I wasn't sure this book was what I wanted and when I realized I was going to get a history of money.... I was reluctant to read. But, to my amazement, I was caught up in the history and the greater understanding I got from the read. It was well written and researched and kept my interest right to the end.

    The world we live in is sometimes scarey but the knowledge we gain helps to calm the soul and give us a frame for our fears. This book does exactly that. I am so happy to have this knowledge and I recommend it without hesitation.
