I came across an old post of mine from June 2023. I used this chart less than three years ago. We were just crossing $32 trillion in national debt. We are already over $39 trillion and likely to reach $40 trillion in the coming months with additional war spending. You probably don't own enough gold or silver. Everyone should consider owning some assets that will survive a monetary reset. I think within our lifetime there will come a day when the system won't keep funding additional debt for the USA, European countries and Japan. Massive inflation (via central bank money creation) is the only way they will be able to keep interest rates down. We all become less wealthy in that scenario. You protect yourself by owning hard assets that will still have value in the next currency.(Wall Street Mav)
