Good as Gold — Sound Money in a Loud Metals MarketGold and silver have been anything but calm lately—surging, crashing, and frequently reacting to margin changes and headlines. In this episode, Mike and Taylor cover Judy Shelton's book Good as Gold: How to Unleash the Power of Sound Money and unpack why that volatility isn't a failure of metals, but a signal of a monetary system without an anchor. They explore the difference between gold as money and gold as a trade, why silver gets pulled in every direction at once, and how discretionary policy turns prices into pressure gauges. The takeaway: the noise in today's markets isn't random—it's what happens when the measuring stick won't sit still.

In this episode of Soar Financially, Dr. Judy Shelton, former Trump economic advisor and U.S. Treasury official, explains why $4,500 gold may be signaling a major shift in the global monetary system.We break down the Federal Reserve's growing power, the loss of trust in fiat currencies, and Shelton's bold proposal for gold-backed U.S. Treasury bonds. From Bretton Woods to Fort Knox audits, this conversation dives deep into what sound money could look like in the years ahead — and why July 4th, 2026, could matter more than markets expect.#Gold #federalreserve #goldstandard ------------

In this deep (and skeptical) dive into the latest CPI numbers, Chris breaks down why 2.7% inflation doesn't match the reality Americans live every day. From manipulated BLS data and stagnant wages to the soaring cost of life's bare necessities—food, insurance, housing, and energy—this episode challenges the conventional wisdom that 2% inflation is “success.” Why should the dollar lose value at all? Drawing on decades of experience and the economic views of Judy Shelton, Chris explains why zero inflation should be the goal, why debt and money printing are crushing future generations, and why Washington keeps kicking the can down the road.

Bessent says White House may ‘veto’ Federal Reserve presidents   Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Wednesday he would push a new requirement that the Federal Reserve’s regional bank presidents live in their districts for at least three years before taking office, a move that could give the White House more power over the independent agency.  Bessent said that “there is a disconnect with the framing of the Federal Reserve” and added that, “unless someone has lived in their district for three years, we’re going to veto them.” Source: msn.com https://twitter.com/KobeissiLetter/status/1995954684859941373?s=20   In a July 2025 interview, Hassett highlighted the Fed’s origins under the gold standard in 1913 to critique current practices: “When the Federal Reserve was created, we were under the Gold Standard—and the idea that the Fed could print money and then spend $2.5B on a building… I think that we’ve got a real problem of oversight and excess spending.”   This aligns with sound money ideals, where gold symbolizes disciplined, non-inflationary currency, but he stops short of calling for reinstatement.  Monetary economist Judy Shelton (author of Good as Gold) praised Hassett in July 2025 for referencing the gold standard, noting it as a reminder that “Fed has a lot to answer for” in deviating from that era’s stability.  Hassett views Bitcoin as “digital gold” for its scarcity and hedge qualities—echoing sound money without physical backing.

OUTRAGE: Minneapolis Police Chief Urges Somali Community to Dial 911 on Masked ICE Agents — Promises Cops Will “Intervene” Against Federal Arrests Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara speaks at a press conference alongside city officials as he urges Somali residents to call 911 on masked individuals Police leadership in Minneapolis is urging the city's Somali community, and other immigrant residents, to call 911 if they spot masked individuals detaining people in their neighborhoods. He urged community members to call 911 if they were unsure whether those enforcing arrests were legitimate law enforcement — and pledged MPD would investigate and log every such call. He did not stop at documentation, however. “If there is anything that is … a violation of someone's human rights or civil rights, excessive force or anything like that, they absolutely have a duty to intervene as police officers,” O'Hara declared. https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1995956308902879320?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1995956308902879320%7Ctwgr%5E19002c76c52297fc2dd58664d00870448c39f149%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2025%2F12%2Foutrage-minneapolis-police-chief-urges-somali-community-dial%2F Source: thegatewaypundit.com UNREAL: Mayor Jacob Frey Declares He Won't Cooperate With ICE… and Suddenly Starts Speaking Somali to His Audience Mid-Speech Minneapolis far-left Mayor Jacob Frey abruptly shifted a public address into Somali, all while promising that city police will refuse to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement.

It's a forward operating base for Iran and Hezbollah in the Western Hemisphere. This is why the situation is escalating. This is why Trump's ultimatum matters. This is why Maduro's regime cannot be ignored or “managed.” The threat isn't local — it's global.

The plan was simple on paper – use immobilized Russian funds as collateral for loans to keep Ukraine afloat. But Belgium is the custodian of the largest chunk of those assets. If something goes wrong, they're the ones holding the radioactive bag. This isn't some bureaucratic squabble. It's the EU's financing strategy cracking in real time. Prévot's pushback signals the core fear: If Europe touches Russian state money without watertight legal armor, Moscow retaliates – economically, diplomatically, and possibly through countersanctions on European firms. And here's the thing: the Commission thought it had majority backing. Belgium saying “nope” on the morning of rollout is a political body-slam. Happening next? The EU will scramble to rewrite the legal plumbing. Germany and France will pressure Belgium quietly – nobody wants to admit the plan is wobbling. Russia will weaponize the hesitation as proof the West can't agree on how to bankroll Ukraine. And Kyiv? Still waiting for the money that was supposed to be “already there.” Another example of Europe discovering that seizing assets is easy. Using them? That's where the real war begins.    Ursula von der Leyen did not state that she received “permission” from the US to seize Russian assets. In a recent appearance at the GLOBSEC forum, she said that she informed the incoming Trump administration (specifically mentioning a conversation with Treasury Secretary nominee Scott Bessent) about the EU’s proposal to use frozen Russian assets as collateral for a “reparations loan” to Ukraine, and that “it was positively received.” https://twitter.com/briefing_block_/status/1996241939931201801?s=20 https://twitter.com/Dubinsky_pro/status/1996242036417028176?s=20  regime.

No official reason was given, but the message is clear: there's no deal, yet. Putin's warning didn't help. He said Russia is “ready” for war in Europe and claimed any future conflict would be so fierce that “nobody will be left to negotiate with.” This setback casts doubt on whether a negotiated end to the war is possible anytime soon. It also suggests Kyiv isn't ready to engage on Moscow's terms. What's next: Watch for how Ukraine positions itself diplomatically in the coming weeks, and whether Trump's team will try again with a revised proposal. https://twitter.com/MJTruthUltra/status/1996059724173754525?s=20   situation may quickly arise where there is no one left for us to negotiate with” https://twitter.com/Panchenko_X/status/1996192741508645286?s=20  been given the black mark and is seen globally as corrupt.

That restriction followed an executive order from President Donald Trump against recognizing transgenderism claims in the federal government. The claim being made by Mittereder is that the policy violates federal civil rights law. According to the report on the recently filed lawsuit, Mittereder began working at the TSA in 2024 and now is stationed at Dulles International Airport in Virginia. He claims because he is not allowed to pat down women, his job prospects are being hurt.

This collaboration brought us together and still holds the promise of lowering insurance premiums.” Paul noted the plan failed because Democrat AGs fought it in court, but it could now pass through Congress. Here’s why this matters: the current system forces individuals to buy insurance alone, giving them zero bargaining power against massive insurance companies. Association Health Plans let people band together through retailers or organizations to negotiate as a group, the same way large corporations do for their employees. More buyers in a pool means more leverage. More leverage means lower premiums. It costs nothing to implement and simply changes labor law. Competition works. Let Americans shop for insurance the same way they shop for everything else. https://twitter.com/EliseStefanik/status/1995856738994565416?s=20  Raskin against Trump Republicans to block this provision to protect the deep state.

The project should be complete by the end of the calendar year. -We saved the taxpayers billions of dollars by scrapping the plan for an expensive new FBI headquarters building. We will be moving to the existing Reagan building after decades of fruitless haggling as the current FBI headquarters building crumbles. -We relocated over a thousand headquarters based personnel out of the Washington DC area and into the field to focus on violent crime, crimes against children, and terrorism.

These are real savings to the taxpayer and each budget dollar allocated is intensely scrutinized for value. -We vastly expanded the overseas biometrics program to stop bad actors before they board a plane or vessel to the US. This gives us the ability to expand the border outwards and prevent the problems from coming here. -We are in the end stages of a reform project on our intelligence analysis positions to make them more responsive to current mission needs.

Jim Bianco, president of Bianco Research, returns to The Julia La Roche Show for episode 297 for an in-studio appearance. Bianco argues the Fed is making a policy error by cutting rates when financial markets are at all-time highs across the board—stocks, gold, bonds, M2, and home prices. He explains that job creation has slowed from 158,000 to 29,000 per month not because the economy is weak, but because immigration has essentially stopped, reducing population growth to an 80-year low—meaning 29,000 jobs may actually be appropriate. Bianco warns that cutting rates in this environment risks recreating inflation through two key channels: tariffs (average rates up 6x to 17-18%) and remote work (giving labor more power to demand higher wages). He sees dangerous concentration in AI stocks (41 companies representing 47% of S&P 500 market cap) reminiscent of late-1990s bubble dynamics, with aggressive retail buying and passive flows creating mispricing that could end badly when the "buy the dip" mentality finally breaks.This episode is sponsored by Monetary Metals.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.theflyingfrisby.comBefore we begin today's piece, let me flag this video I made based on my recent article about Triffin's Dilemma. 13 mins long and hopefully worth the effort. Might be the most important thing you watch this week.With all the narratives that come with a gold bull market - and also a bitcoin bull market - that we're heading to some kind of money reset, the dollar or the pound is going to collapse, we are going to end up on a gold or bitcoin standard and so on - you have an end goal. The bull market will continue until we reach that eventuality.However, I doubt very much we go back to a gold standard. Yes, gold's role as reserve asset increases, ditto bitcoin, but I don't see a return to the gold standards of the 19th or 20th century. Much more likely is a Hayekian world of competing currencies.The 20th century gold standards were bogus anyway - which is why they failed. There was no gold in circulation. Americans weren't allowed to own it. When Britain returned to a gold standard in 1925, the British government ensured there was little gold actually circulating. It minted zero gold coins, while the Bank of England hoarded what it already had. ( It's all in the book, if you're interested).The Secret History of Gold is available to at Amazon, Waterstones and all good bookshops. I hear the audiobook, read by me, is excellent. Amazon is currently offering 20% off.There was plenty of gold in circulation under the gold standards of the 19th century, but we are not going back to them because we barely use physical cash any more. We are not going to pay for physical things with gold or silver coins in the way we once did.It might be that China gives the yuan some gold backing, and makes its (digital) notes interchangeable with gold, but I find that unlikely. It might also be that gold backing is used to make US Treasuries more attractive, as economist Judy Shelton, former advisor to Donald Trump, has proposed.Again, though possible, I would give it a low probability.The gold bull markets of the 1970s and 2000s did not end with gold standards. I doubt this one will. A gold standard is a political ideal. Real life is a lot more mucky.Unlike gold, gold bull markets do not last forever, any more than tech or any other kind of bull markets do.And this bull market is getting hot. That's for sure. Gold is at $3,700/oz. While the mainstream press are not really covering it, there has been a definite change in tone online. Silver is starting to lead. Gold miners are starting to deliver.Towards the end of previous gold bull markets, I usually get invited on to the BBC to talk about gold. Massive name drop, I was actually fraternising with BBC Director General, Tim Davie, this week - enough to get a selfie at least - but I am currently so far from being invited on to the BBC, whether for my satirical songs or for my market commentary - even with a new book on gold just out - that I believe we are a way from that.(In another age, I would have been a fixture on BBC radio. I have got the voice. I have got the intellect. But obviously, wrong age, wrong sex, wrong colour and all of that. Wrong views too).Anyway, back to more important matters.Things got hot and spicy with gold in the spring, as we warned, not unlike now. But we didn't feel it was the top. We just needed to go sideways for a few months, which we have.With physical gold, especially if you live in a Third World country like the UK, there is a strong argument never to sell. Even during gold's bear market (2011-2020), gold was a brilliant hedge against woeful sterling.If you buying gold or silver to protect yourself in these “interesting times” - and I urge you to - as always I recommend The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.You could just hold your gold and then pass it on to your heirs. Bitcoin's the same. But then again you might want the money for something else.In the 1970s gold went from $35/oz (an artificially low price due to US suppression) all the way to $850/oz.But that $850 mark was just as much an illusory price. Though it has been logged in people's minds for decades ever since, the reality is it reached that price during one spike on one afternoon. The Cold War was looking grim: the Soviet Union had just invaded Afghanistan a month before. The Iranian hostage crisis was making everyone panic (the hostages were released the day before the spike). It was the day after US President Ronald Reagan had been inaugurated. Nobody yet knew what a success he was going to be. There was an ongoing and severe crisis in the US bond markets, which had sent interest rates above 10%.In other words, there was a lot going on. And yet gold only hit $850 for an afternoon. Hardly anyone sold the top of that spike.The launch to $850 gold began in December 1979 with that Soviet invasion. Gold broke above $450. The day after the spike, gold collapsed like a stone. By March it was below $500.Gold then did something you commonly see at the end of bull markets. The Nasdaq did something similar in 2000. Silver did it in 2011. It rallied. That rally persuaded people the bull market was still on. It was a suckers' rally.But the retest did not even make it back to the old high. It was a lower high, in other words.Then the relentless declines kicked in. By 1982 - 18 months later - gold was at $300/oz. It then spent the next 20 years - 20 years! - trading between $300 and $400, before eventually hitting a low in 1999 at $250/oz, when Gordon Brown sold. Idiot.My point is that in 1980 it looked to some like a return to gold standards was coming. The US had only abandoned gold 9 years earlier - and, in President Nixon's words, temporarily. Gold was still normal in people's minds. But the gold standard never came and gold was a rotten investment for 20 years.2011, by the way, was not of 1980 standards but the price still shot from $1,500 to $1,920 in a couple of months with the Greek debt crisis. There followed another gruesome bear market which saw gold go all the way back to $1,050.There is so much anti-dollar sentiment out there now, it might be that everything turns on its head - as things are wont to do - and we get a dollar rally.I recognise that things are looking frothy. Anytime silver starts doing well, that is usually a warning sign.A lot of American commentators like to use the baseball analogy. I would suggest maybe we are in inning six of nine. Something like that, possibly.So when to sell?

Craig Hemke, Editor of TF Metals Report, joins us to discuss a number of macroeconomic factors from the revised GDP estimate lower, the weakness in manufacturing, tariff policies, sticky inflation, and the ever-increasing US debt issue that are creating the stagflationary environment of desperation in front of a potential recession and the impetus from this administration to make some big financial change... and it may involve gold.   There has been so much news circulating lately from the Trump administration that has financial media speculating about the potential to revalue assets on the US balance sheet, possibly including the price gold is valued at.  There are opinion pieces citing that all the tariffs going into place; and that they may be more than just a bargaining chip.  Some outlets and pundits have proposed the real motivation behind these tariffs is that they are actually a way to bring funds into the federal government through that form of taxation, which could allow for faster debt repayment or even the formation of a sovereign wealth fund.  The debate on the sovereign wealth fund comes down to where the necessary money will actually come from to create it. Then as far as what to buy with the sovereign wealth fund, many are proposing that it could include either gold, energy assets, Greenland, or even bitcoin.    Craig then touches up the proposed idea from Judy Shelton back in 2018, which is circulating once again, where the US could sell long-dated 50-year or 100-year bonds that are indexed or redeemable in gold to make them more attractive.  With so many ideas being thrown out as potential solutions, it does have many investors wondering if this administration is on the cusp of announcing some radical financial proposal.   He points out that most of the ideas are very bullish for the precious metals.   Click here to visit Craig's website – TF Metals Report

The discussion focused on the status of gold reserves at Fort Knox and their economic implications. Craig Hemke raised concerns about the purity of the gold stored, suggesting that much of it may be only 90% pure, which contrasts with the current standard of 99.99%. They referenced the historical context of gold confiscation in 1933 and speculated on potential government responses if the vault were found empty, with Lutz concluding that such a revelation could trigger a global economic crisis. The conversation also delved into the implications of revaluing gold and its effects on fiat currencies. Hemke explained the historical backing of the U.S. dollar with gold and noted the loss of significant reserves in the late 1950s. They discussed current efforts to repatriate gold to the U.S. and the challenges posed by tariffs on gold movement. Additionally, they examined the concept of gold-backed bonds proposed by Judy Shelton, considering the fiscal challenges facing the U.S. and the potential interest rates needed to attract investors. Further topics included the economic landscape surrounding cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin and Bitcoin, with Hemke expressing skepticism about their real impact amid significant government spending and projected deficits. They discussed the inverted yield curve as an indicator of a potential recession and the implications for gold prices, predicting continued strong demand due to central bank purchases. The conversation concluded with a critique of government spending practices, highlighting concerns about inefficiency and lack of accountability in the federal budget.

Dr. Judy Shelton, senior fellow at the Independent Institute and author of "Good as Gold: How To Unleash The Power of Sound Money," explains why the U.S. stands at a monetary crossroads requiring fundamental reform. She critiques the Federal Reserve's practice of paying banks billions not to lend, the distortionary effects of currency manipulation in international trade, and the moral implications of a 2% inflation target that systematically erodes savings. Shelton argues for auditing the Fed, restoring accountability, and considering gold-linked bonds as a path toward sound money, which she describes as a foundational element of economic liberty consistent with America's founding principles.Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia Links: Book: https://www.independent.org/store/book.asp?id=143X: https://x.com/judyshel0:00 Introduction of Dr. Judy Shelton1:01 Overview of monetary crossroads and need for reform4:23 Discussion of needed monetary reforms and Fed critique6:36 Analysis of Fed's interest rate mechanism8:58 Explanation of Fed payments to financial institutions11:25 International monetary impacts and currency distortions13:34 Sound money as moral contract and possibility16:31 Historical support for gold standard from past presidents19:56 Critique of Fed's 2% inflation target22:09 Question about Fed serving public interest25:03 Central bank accountability issues27:51 Gold-linked bonds proposal30:22 Closing remarks and where to find her work

In this compelling episode of The Let People Prosper Show, Judy Shelton and I discuss her latest book, Good as Gold: How to Unleash the Power of Sound Money. We dive into the state of capitalism, the inefficiencies of government bureaucracy, and the vital role of fiscal and monetary policy in driving sustainable economic growth. From historical lessons like the peso crisis and Bretton Woods to the promise of gold and cryptocurrencies, the discussion provides a roadmap for reclaiming economic stability and fostering global prosperity. Join us as we explore actionable steps to reduce government overspending, enhance monetary stability, and inspire a renewed commitment to free-market principles worldwide.

Tom Bodrovics, welcomes back David Morgan, founder of The Morgan Report, for a discussion centered around their respective recent interviews with Dr. Judy Shelton. They highlight her advocacy for the moral obligation of money and her belief in an honest monetary system that fosters freedom and stability. Morgan believes these views align with his life's work. The conversation touches upon potential solutions for imposing monetary discipline on the government, including the idea of long-term gold bonds and a bimetallic standard consisting of both gold and silver. The benefits of a bimetallic system include regulation of inflation, but its practicality is questioned due to the current market values of gold and silver. Morgan also discusses the role of the Federal Reserve in the US monetary system, suggesting that commercial banks create most of the money through loans and advocating for the Treasury to manage monetary policy according to the Constitution. He expresses skepticism towards Central Bank Digital Currencies due to concerns over privacy and potential loss of control by individuals. David Morgan shares his long-term perspective on investing in silver, emphasizing its importance as a form of financial security and potential return to being a monetary asset. He also discusses the industrial uses of platinum and palladium and expresses his bullish sentiment towards these metals. In conclusion, Morgan advocates for self-reliance, fundamental human values, and focuses on the human spirit despite skepticism towards politics. David Morgan is working on a documentary called "Silver Sunrise" that explores the monetary system, stress, fear, and control related to money, featuring interviews from renowned figures like G. Edwin Griffin, Ron Paul, Ellen Brown, and Mark Passio, set for release early next year.

Judy Shelton: "Why Don't We Use Our Gold As Collateral For A New Treasury Debt Instrument" Former Trump economic advisor Judy Shelton has talked a lot about bringing gold back into the monetary system in the US. And while she has not yet been officially brought back aboard Trump's team, it sure is fascinating to imagine what could happen if she is. Because in a recent interview with David Morgan of The Morgan Report, in addition to sharing some fascinating monetary history, including how even Fed officials like Paul Volcker and Alan Greenspan agree that 2% inflation is far from the definition of stable, she also proposes the idea of using the nation's gold as collateral for a new treasury debt instrument. Which is fascinating to hear, especially at the same time when the eastern half of the world continues to express a desire to turn to gold in place of treasuries. So whether you're a monetary advocate, historian, or someone who just wants to navigate the changes to our monetary system that are coming, you're really going to enjoy this interview.

On this episode of The Cash Flow Academy, Andy Tanner sits down with Judy Shelton to discuss her upcoming book, *Good as Gold*, where she dives into the vital role of sound money. As a former senior fellow at the Hoover Institution and nominee for the Federal Reserve, Shelton brings unique insights on fiscal responsibility and the stabilizing power of gold. She critiques the Federal Reserve's expansive policies, especially during crises like 2008 and COVID-19, and explains how these actions have fueled inflation. Arguing for a return to gold-backed currency, Shelton outlines how sound money can curb excessive government spending, stabilize the economy, and support financial security for individuals and businesses alike.

Tom welcomes a well known and interesting guest for the first time to the show, Dr. Judy Shelton. Judy is Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute and author of Good as Gold, passionately advocates for sound money as a moral obligation of governments to their citizens. Sound money, according to Shelton, should maintain its value over time, acting as an unchanging standard for economic planning and transactions. She criticizes the Federal Reserve's policy of debasing the U.S. dollar through inflation targeting, which undermines its purchasing power and creates inequality in society. The Federal Reserve was initially established to provide an elastic currency that addressed seasonal economic fluctuations. However, the role of the Fed has shifted significantly over time, leading to concerns about its growing dependence on the government for budgeting needs and potential consequences for the economy and small businesses. Shelton argues for market-determined interest rates, pointing to historical examples like the gold standard. She also highlights the importance of accurate data in monetary policy decision-making and critiques central banks' conflicting policies on a global scale that can lead to currency wars and instability in international trade. Shelton advocates for a new international monetary system anchored by a gold convertible long-term US Treasury bond, which would promote stability and accountability in international transactions. She recalls her unsuccessful nomination to the Federal Reserve and expresses her belief that economic growth under President Trump's agenda and Elon Musk's involvement could lead to controlling the budget and promoting sound money. Shelton urges for less central planning by governments, believing there is a collective yearning for trustworthy, stable money in society. The interview concludes with Dr. Judy Shelton expressing her gratitude for the opportunity to discuss her ideas and the success of her book "Good as Gold" on Amazon's charts. She encourages listeners to get radical and demand sound money from their governments for a more prosperous economy based on individual liberty.

Economist Judy Shelton, a senior fellow at the Independent Institute, discusses her new book: Good As Gold, How To Unlease The Power Of Sound Money. From the Independent Institute: She's one of the few economists bold enough to challenge the inflationary policies of the Federal Reserve, emphasizing how today's policies enrich elites at the expense of—you guessed it—poor and middle-class Americans. This, Shelton insists, must end. And it can end—easily.

“You can't have sound money without sound finances,” says Judy Shelton, monetary economist, author of “Money Meltdown,” and former economic advisor to Donald Trump. In an exclusive interview with Daniela Cambone, Shelton explains the rationale behind a gold standard argument, detailing how issuing a gold-backed bond may be the pathway to it.

As America continues to experience painfully high levels of inflation, the need for a sound money supply that serves as a reliable store of value has never been clearer. At the Mont Pelerin Society meeting in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, Matt Kibbe sits down with economist Judy Shelton, author of "Good as Gold: How to Unleash the Power of Sound Money." Shelton argues that the appeal of a gold-backed currency is in the trust people hold in a time-tested finite resource that cannot be abused by an activist central bank.

Thank you for watching this week's episode of the "Let People Prosper" podcast. Today, I'm honored to be joined by Dr. Judy Shelton, renowned economist and author specializing in global finance and monetary issues. She is a Hoover scholar who has been consulted on international economic/financial issues by national security officials at the White House and Pentagon, to name a few of her many accomplishments. We discuss: 1) Why money is important, how it gets its value, what it really is and is not; 2) What the Fed did wrong during the pandemic, how it continues to mishandle interest rates, and why this approach will ultimately not abet inflation; and 3) Skyrocketing interest rates around the world, how central banks manipulate currencies, and much more.
