• 0:45
  So this video popped up on X and I watched it and I was like, Oh
• 0:50
  my gosh. This I think sums up what we've
• 0:54
  experienced over the last 50 years.
• 0:56
  But even more importantly, why we choose to look at sound money
• 1:01
  options. And again, I'm going to warn
• 1:03
  you, there's a shocker at the end of this video.
• 1:05
  So we're going to start watching the video.
• 1:08
  I'll pause it a few times and give you some commentary.
• 1:11
  Here we go guys. Let's put it up on full screen
• 1:15
  and get us back to the very beginning.
• 1:19
  Here we go. America's gold was supposed to
• 1:21
  back the dollar. Leaving the gold standard was
• 1:24
  the most costly mistake we ever made.
• 1:32
  What was so bad about gold? It kept them honest, but they
• 1:36
  wanted power. You know, kid, folks today think
• 1:40
  this is just how life supposed to.
• 1:41
  Be. What do you mean?
• 1:43
  Back in my day, one job could feed a family.
• 1:46
  My mother stayed home, father worked and we ate together every
• 1:50
  night. Didn't realize.
• 1:52
  Now I want you to think about that.
• 1:54
  I was born in 1970. the United States went off the gold
• 1:58
  standard in 1971. I can tell you I grew up in a
• 2:01
  very middle class family. I'm a middle class guy.
• 2:04
  I was actually in the steel Workers Union during summers
• 2:07
  when I went to college. But back then my dad just had to
• 2:11
  work and we had a great life, a nice middle class home, 2 cars,
• 2:16
  we even went to Disney World. What happened?
• 2:19
  Oh, we went off the gold standard and by the the time I
• 2:22
  was 10 years old in 1980, guess what my mom had to go to work
• 2:28
  Guys, this gets even better. I'm going to go back to the
• 2:31
  video because that's what you really want to see, not me.
• 2:34
  And let's keep watching that's. How good we had it after the
• 2:39
  World War they promised gold backed dollars, but they broke
• 2:43
  that promise. They printed paper backed by
• 2:46
  nothing, funded wars we couldn't afford and shouldn't have been
• 2:49
  involved in. But France caught on and sent a
• 2:53
  warship. We're going to stop there for a
• 2:54
  second. So what really brought on this
• 2:57
  end of the gold standard of sound money in this country was
• 3:02
  a lot of people say the Vietnam War because they needed more
• 3:05
  money to pay for the Vietnam War, but they didn't have gold.
• 3:10
  So that's why President Richard Nixon on August 15th, 1971, went
• 3:15
  live to the United States people and said he was temporarily
• 3:21
  taking the dollar off the gold standard temporarily.
• 3:26
  Here we stand, what, 54 years later and it's still temporarily
• 3:32
  off the gold standard, off gold being backed by gold.
• 3:35
  But what's crazy to realize is the fact that during that period
• 3:40
  from 1971 through today, the US dollar has lost 99% of its value
• 3:49
  versus gold. Yes, the dollars down 99% in
• 3:53
  value versus gold from August 15th, 1971, when President
• 3:57
  Richard Nixon temporarily took us off the gold standard.
• 4:02
  All right, let's watch a little bit more now, guys.
• 4:09
  Back their goal. Truth is, if more countries
• 4:13
  followed, our vaults would be empty and game over.
• 4:18
  I have directed the Secretary of the Treasury to take the action
• 4:21
  necessary to suspend temporarily the convertibility of the dollar
• 4:25
  in the. Gold.
• 4:26
  Turns out when you fake the money, everything else follows
• 4:31
  and you screw the next generation over and it's
• 4:33
  snowballs. Kid prices shot up, paychecks
• 4:36
  didn't. Life got tougher and nobody knew
• 4:39
  why. We tried raising our kids the
• 4:41
  old way, but we didn't have the time or the money.
• 4:45
  So you outsource parenting. Yeah, I guess you could say we
• 4:50
  did. Government schools raised them
• 4:52
  and the TV taught them bad morals.
• 4:54
  They learned debt, not saving. OK guys, so the ramification of
• 5:00
  going off the gold standard and it's true right?
• 5:03
  What middle class family can afford now for just one parent
• 5:07
  to work right and have a house payment, car payments, try to
• 5:11
  have some fun, try to eat. It just plain doesn't work.
• 5:15
  It has had major implications on society and look at some of
• 5:19
  these implications are now next that they point out in the
• 5:22
  video. Houses they couldn't afford
• 5:27
  played video games, gambling, antidepressants and crimes.
• 5:31
  Families fractured. Divorce rates doubled.
• 5:34
  Birth rates plummeted. Things got so bad people started
• 5:38
  financing Chipotle. Financing a.
• 5:44
  There's even a little bit of humor put in there as well.
• 5:48
  Financing a burrito. We're going to finish watching
• 5:50
  the video in one second. But the other important factor,
• 5:54
  remember, is that in 1971, when Nixon took us off the gold
• 5:58
  standard, the United States had a little under $400 billion in
• 6:04
  debt, 400 billion, which is a lot, right?
• 6:07
  Nobody heard of trillions back then, kind of like quadrillions
• 6:11
  are now. But today we're sitting at $37
• 6:14
  trillion in debt. And if my math is correct, that
• 6:18
  means that the national debt since 1971 hasn't gone up by 10
• 6:23
  times, but has gone up by 100 times.
• 6:27
  We've become a nation of debt and we've taken the world with
• 6:31
  us. While we have our 37 trillion in
• 6:34
  debt, it's well documented that throughout the world there's
• 6:37
  over $300 trillion in debt. And I think it's Ray Dalio who
• 6:42
  pointed out all that debt, all those $300 trillion in debt.
• 6:48
  There's actually people out there that think they're going
• 6:50
  to get paid back. But realistically, it doesn't
• 6:53
  look like the world will ever be able to pay the debt back.
• 6:56
  Or possibly the United States. OK, back to the video.
• 7:00
  And then don't forget, there's a shocker at the end of this
• 7:04
  video. Yeah, it's getting bad obesity,
• 7:10
  people eating cheap slop instead of real food.
• 7:12
  We got softer, sicker and lazier, a nation in decline.
• 7:17
  But it didn't happen overnight. When Nixon left the gold
• 7:21
  standard, we traded sound money for a lifetime of debt.
• 7:25
  How will they ever pay it back? I don't think they plan to.
• 7:29
  Both sides keep spending like there's no tomorrow and leaving
• 7:33
  the bill to your generation. We didn't get it right, but
• 7:36
  you've still got a chance. So take the reins kid.
• 7:41
  Hold your ground and don't give up on sound money.
• 7:45
  All right, here comes the shocker.
• 7:46
  OK, This is a video about precious metals, right?
• 7:51
  Start using the new gold. Ander.
• 7:54
  It's a Bitcoin video. It's a crypto video from TFTC
• 7:58
  Productions. Thank.
• 7:59
  You America's gold was supposed to back the dollar.
• 8:02
  Back here, sorry, we're dealing with live here and you know how
• 8:05
  that can get. So at the end of the day, at the
• 8:08
  end of that video, what we learn is right that the future
• 8:11
  generations are in big trouble in this country.
• 8:14
  Unfortunate you likely, I likely didn't 'cause it.
• 8:18
  We're not in favor of it, but that's what's going on.
• 8:20
  But the shocker there is that it's a video that was made by a
• 8:24
  by a crypto media company and about Bitcoin.
• 8:27
  They mentioned Bitcoin at the end.
• 8:29
  And I just want to point out right, like there's, there's
• 8:33
  people in the in the precious metals community that aren't
• 8:36
  real fond of cryptocurrency. And there's some in the crypto
• 8:40
  world that are maybe not so fond of precious metals.
• 8:43
  But guys, here's the reality because I've got my foot in both
• 8:46
  sides at this point. Crypto people and precious
• 8:51
  metals people, we are cut from the same cloth.
• 8:57
  They're like crypto people and and, and and precious metal
• 9:00
  people are like twin siblings, okay, that are like part of the
• 9:05
  same family, almost identical, but maybe have some sibling
• 9:09
  rivalry. And it's not all there's a lot
• 9:10
  of people in crypto that love precious metals and vice versa
• 9:14
  as well. And so I'm not making this a
• 9:16
  statement pro or con of either one.
• 9:18
  What I am saying is that there's a lot of people in precious
• 9:22
  metals and there's a lot of people in crypto that understand
• 9:27
  what that powerful video just demonstrated, right?
• 9:31
  That money that is backed by nothing right will eventually
• 9:36
  become worth less. I won't say worthless, although
• 9:40
  there's a strong a strong history in pointing out that
• 9:43
  most Fiat currencies do become worthless.
• 9:47
  All right, guys, I wanted to share that with you.
• 9:49
  I thought it was an awesome, awesome example of what's
• 9:53
  happened since 1971 and when they took us off the gold
• 9:57
  standard. I think I've got everything out
• 10:00
  here. Oh, here's the no one more big
• 10:03
  important thing about this. Look, it's really sad how how
• 10:07
  the how the middle class in the United States has been gutted
• 10:11
  since we went off the gold standard and there's no other
• 10:13
  way to say it, right? But what makes it even crazier
• 10:17
  to think is that since 1971, because of all different types
• 10:21
  of technological advances, and I just don't mean smartphones and
• 10:25
  TV's, I mean in manufacturing and everything, right?
• 10:30
  That we've had such massive strides in the last 54 years and
• 10:33
  technology that actually life should be easier.
• 10:37
  The average person could have a lifestyle, should some would
• 10:42
  argue have a lifestyle even better than that lifestyle that
• 10:46
  most families enjoyed back in 1971, which most middle class
• 10:50
  families today would find envious, right?
• 10:53
  My house I'm living in was built in 1965.
• 10:56
  This basement, OK. The people that lived here in
• 10:59
  1971, the way they lived was very much easier then what Susie
• 11:07
  and I are experiencing today. Does that make sense?
• 11:09
  I mean with all the technology, all the efficiencies that the
• 11:13
  world has has gained in the last 50 years, we instead of living
• 11:19
  worse off than our 1971 should be living better off, right?
• 11:24
  Look, what we also know is that since 1971, the US dollars lost
• 11:30
  99% of its value versus gold. So silver, gold, when I talk
• 11:35
  about precious metals, obviously I'm talking about both.
• 11:39
  They've proven themselves as a sound way to protect our wealth.
• 11:43
  I want to say thank you to channel sponsor First Mint.

  They've got millions of Oz of gold in the ground in Canada.
• 12:30
  They're a development stage company.
• 12:32
  That means they're not actively mining yet, but they're in the
• 12:35
  process of developing these big deposits, which they have
• 12:38
  defined. They have spring pull in Ontario
• 12:41
  and Du Parquet in Quebec. It's gold in the ground and

• 12:57
  basement. Have a great day.
• 12:59
  I hope you enjoyed that video. I hope you found it as moving as
• 13:03
  I did. I thought that it was very well
• 13:06
  produced and then the shocker at the end that it actually came
• 13:10
  from a crypto media company. Have a great day, be good to
• 13:13
  yourself, and I'll look forward to seeing you soon.
• 13:16
