Most Americans have been fooled into thinking one party has the solutions to the nation’s problems, when the facts paint a much different picture. You need to understand that both parties are the same. As history shows, you get the same result regardless who resides over the White House and Congress.

Continuing from PART 6 In this series of articles I have been discussing the myths, lies, dreams and delusions about gold, hyperinflation and other nonsense that continues to be flooded into the media by idiots, liars and snake oil salesmen. With so many lying scumbags, snake oil salesmen and profiteers out there, obviously one of the most important skills to have to avoid falling victim to these rascals is to know how to determine whether someone can be a trusted source of information and insight. So how does one determine whether or not to trust the judgment of someone claiming to know more than you about gold, silver, stocks and bonds, real estate or anything else related to investments? Always remember, a person’s views are only as good as their credibility. In th...

(Updated on December 14, 2010) I hate to waste time on useless scumbag liars and profiteers. However, if you want to be a great investor, you have to be able to recognize trash in order to avoid it. I want to alert you to the latest scam being led by the biggest opportunities, liars and censoring scumbags in the world today. As a manner by which to boost their own swollen bank accounts, disinfo agents Alex Jones and Max Keiser have been promoting a campaign get sheep across the globe to buy silver with the (ridiculous) intent to crush JP Morgan. Their reasoning is as follows. Since the bank has a large short position in silver, if people buy it in hoards it will drive up the price causing them to sell at a big loss. Furthermore, since JP Morgan's short position is (alleged...

Some readers may need to read a few previous articles I've written about Chris Martenson in order to put everything into context. However, for those who are not familiar with Mr. Martenson, I'll provide a brief rundown before proceeding to discuss the focus of this article.   I've discussed Chris Martenson several times over the years because I believe he's engaging in less than honest business practices for the purpose of selling snake oil. In short, Martenson is someone the public should be warned about because he's selling fear and disinformation while marketing himself as a credible source of insight. Let me be clear. Chris Martenson is by no means credible.  If Martenson kept to himself and only posted his nonsense on his huckster-themed "Peak Prosperity" website, hi...

Many of you know where I stand on gold. Despite having forecast gold to rise to very high prices in America's Financial Apocalypse, the fact is the gold bugs have fooled many to believe gold is a hedge against inflation. They have also tried to scare people by insisting the U.S. will undergo hyperinflation as a way to pump gold further. As I have shown in previous articles, these claims are not true. I wanted to show you an example of the kind of propaganda being spread about the gold and silver.

Gold Bugs and Conspiracy Nuts... There are so many silly statements being made by gold bugs that it would take me a very long time to debunk them all. Most of them are not even worth my time to debunk, as they are so ridiculous. Perhaps the most ludicrous thing about these gold bugs is that they accept anything they read or hear about gold without bothering to analyze the accuracy of the claims, as long as it favors higher prices for gold and silver. Such individuals lack the ability to understand and control their psyche. Without this ability, investors stand to lose.

In the previous part of this article we saw how what Buffett invests in doesn’t matter to you. Let’s look at an example how the media uses the Buffett name to make money. I’d like to direct your attention to a story by Reuters, published on August 22, 2008. “Buffett Sees Weak Economy Until 2009   Surely this is no news. Let’s see now. It’s the end of August, so there are four months left until 2009. A person would have to be a complete fool to think the economy would get better prior to 2009. But the fact is that the investment world consists of a lot of fools who have been brainwashed by the media.

This article represents the first in a series that will discuss the realities about Robert Prechter and his track record. In this first installment I am going to show you a recent interview given by Prechter on Tech Ticker.

Before I begin, I will tell you this with complete confidence. If you see anyone in the media frequently, you won’t even need to waste your time checking to determine whether you can trust them because I will personally guarantee you that they either have no credibility, or else blowing hot air.

Today, we learn of even more clowns looking to duplicate Porter Stansberry’s fear-mongering tactics to lure unsophisticated people into his...

As you watch this video, I want you to keep in mind that this is the guy the media has positioned as a credible expert for YOU, the audience. One of the easiest ways to get a good sense of how stupid and naive the general public has become is to note how close financial media resembles trash TV. For instance, instead of credible experts with proven track records of excellence, the financial media most often airs broken clock salesmen who are nothing more than con artists. But because the media claims these charlatans are "experts" all while lying about their track record, the audience goes along with these false claims as if they were true. The underlying problem is that people just haven't accepted the fact that the media not only has a LEGAL right to lie (you cannot...

One of the easiest ways to get a good sense of how dumbed down and naive the general public has become is to note the striking resemblance between the financial media, trash TV (such as so-called "reality TV") and the so-called "alternative media." For instance, instead of airing credible experts with proven track records, the financial media most often features broken clock sales men who are nothing more than shills, idiots and/or sharks; often all three. Notably, these individuals are almost always Jewish. This latter point addresses another objective of the Jewish media which I will discuss later.  Indeed, many of the interviews you'll see on CNBC, FOX Business or Bloomberg TV seem to have been scripted by the same Hollywood producers who created reality TV shows such as "Th...

You have probably heard what the clowns in the media have said about the economy.  Unfortunately, the media is littered with misguided salesmen like Peter Schiff, Mark Faber and other gold dealers, who clearly have no idea what they're talking about. What they do have are agendas.   Then you have pundits who are always late to the party.   Ask yourself the following question…   Have you ever gotten a true sense of the reality of the U.S. or global economy by listening to the clowns in the media?

In Part 3 of this series, I was discussing the “media club,” pointing out how no one in the media (regardless what their position is) is on your side. If they were and they had truly valuable insights, you can bet they wouldn’t be interviewed because the media only serves the interests of Wall Street. This how the media club basically works. Once you’ve been on CNBC or FBN a few times, you’re likely to make the rounds to CNN, Bloomberg TV, CBS, ABC, etc. Ultimately, if things go well and you’re a “good boy,” you’ll be interviewed by all of the networks. In the best of scenarios, you’ll be turned into a media ham like Peter Schiff, Nouriel Roubini and others have. Their articles will be pumped into all of the useless websites lik...

Approximately three months weeks ago the U.S. markets began to correct. We warned about this first correction in the May issue of our firms paid research publications.

A few years ago I characterized Chris Martenson as a very deceptive predator who was ready to do anything in order to line his pockets from as many sheep as possible by spreading fear-mongering disinformation. See here.  In the 100-page article exposing Martenson I also pointed to bogus claims he made in order to boost his stature and credibility.  In case you don't know anything about Chris Martenson, he's one of those guys who has been warning of a bubble in the stock market, real estate market, and just about everything else you can think of (except gold and silver) since 2011 as a part of his fear-mongering pitch designed to lure naive people as well as nut jobs into his unethical business of selling "fear porn," while directing these victims to service providers (mainly...
