The real-life problems right now are broken down.
I genuinely hope you enjoy this piece. As always, feel free to reach out with any questions. Nothing is off-limits.
My number one goal here is to help you understand why I believe that investing in—and holding—Gold and Silver over the long term is one of the most innovative additions to any portfolio.
Everything I do now, I do with two things in mind:

Will this help my family?
Will this help my clients get to where they want to be?
Let’s break that down quickly.
Will this help my family? Will converting my money into physical Gold and Silver give us the security blanket we all need? Will it offer instant access when we need it most? I believe so. My aim is to help you understand how, just like me, you can protect and build real wealth for your family—the people that matter most.
Protection is one thing, but let’s be honest: We all want the satisfaction of knowing our money is growing, too.
As I’ve said before—I can only share what makes sense. But if it’s good enough for my little boy’s future, it’s probably a pretty good starting point for you.
Now, more than ever, we need to protect our money.
So let’s get into it.
Where’s the pain coming from?
People ask me this all the time.
And let me be clear—the writing on the wall is so bold that Stevie Wonder could see it. If you still choose not to believe it, maybe Gold and Silver aren’t your place.
Stay where you are. Keep your money in the bank—it’s “working”. But if you’re reading this, I suspect you’ve already started questioning that. You’re after another perspective. And that’s what I offer—just another version of yourself, asking different questions.
Let’s talk dollars.
The US dollar is still (for now) the world’s reserve currency. But here’s the issue…
America is now sitting on nearly $37 trillion in national debt.
Could you let that sink in?
The interest on that debt costs the US government around $3 billion daily.
Yes, that’s $3 billion. Per day. No days off. No bank holidays. No sick leave. Just relentless repayments.
How long can that continue?
In my opinion—it can’t.
If the US defaults? The dollar’s finished. End of story.
So then what?
Banks and governments must hold Tier One assets to function. Right now, the US dollar is at the top of that list.
But if the dollar fails, what’s left?
US Treasury Bonds? They are not much used without a currency to back them.
That leaves one thing… Gold.
See where I’m heading?
Wouldn’t it make sense to buy Gold now? Before central banks and governments need it again? Before the stampede begins?
That’s precisely what I’m doing.
If the dollar collapses, we could be staring down the barrel of the most significant recession on record.
There is no crystal ball here—but you can feel it.
And now, tariffs.
Months ago, I said the next major war wouldn’t involve tanks or soldiers—it would be financial. And here we are.
Key Tariffs in Play:
United States
25% on steel and aluminium
25% on Canada & Mexico
Huge tarrifs on Chinese goods
A 200% threat on EU alcohol
China retaliatory tariffs
Export bans targeting US companies
European Union
Counter-tariffs on €28 billion worth of US goods
Canada & Mexico
Retaliatory tariffs being phased in
What’s the impact?
Tariffs raise prices. Which means:
• Stocks take a hit
• Inflation climbs
• Interest rates creep up
• Pensions and savings feel the squeeze
Tariffs mean uncertainty—and investors hate uncertainty.
So, what do savvy investors do? They move into hard, tangible assets.
Like… Gold?
Let’s talk performance.
Gold isn’t creeping up quietly anymore—it’s surging.
Since January:
• USD Gold is up roughly 15.5%
• GBP Gold is up approximately 38.3% over the past year
If everything’s supposedly fine, why is Gold taking off? Exactly.
Now, the LBMA and COMEX.
These are the referees of the gold and silver market—yet they’ve oversold the paper market beyond belief.
Ask yourself: Would you buy one of only 1,000 limited edition Rolex watches for £3,000?
Of course, you would. That’s supply and demand.
And Gold is being oversold—while actual demand is climbing.
Then comes digital currency.
Christine Lagarde recently confirmed the digital euro launches for October.
What does that mean?
• Every transaction tracked
• Purchases can be blocked
• Tax can be taken automatically
• No cash = complete reliance on central banks
We’re not in the Eurozone, sure—but don’t think it won’t reach the UK for a second.
Holding gold and silver is like creating your own monetary system.
One they can’t touch.
There is no digital switch. No frozen cards. Just your wealth in your hands.
Fort Knox and the audit drama…
Yet another disaster in the making. You can read more of my thoughts here:

Banks are on edge. Because once money flows out of their control—they lose their grip.
There’s no such thing as “once in a lifetime.”
Just bad times to buy… and good ones.
Do you know if this is right now? This feels like one of the best.
Can you honestly argue with that?
If not, could you drop me a line? Let’s talk.
