Latest / SILVER / GOLD / $UFD Meme Coin Investing & Global Economics / **ALERT** What DECLINING Gold & Silver Production do to PRECIOUS Metals PRICES
Transcript
- 0:00What would it mean to you, a silver and gold investor, if we
- 0:04have actually reached peak gold, peak silver, meaning that from
- 0:10now and until the future, the amount of gold and silver
- 0:14produced by mining activities would actually be declining?
- 0:19What do you think that would do for the price of silver and
- 0:23gold? We're going to dig in, pardon
- 0:26the pun, into that subject in this video and look at some
- 0:30interesting developments. I'm going to tell you what I've
- 0:33heard from industry insiders. Yeah, I talked to CEOSI, talked
- 0:38to senior. Managers at a lot of these big
- 0:40mining companies and what I'm hearing is downright
- 0:44fascinating. Well, it is to us because we're
- 0:47basement dwellers. We love precious metals.
- 0:49We love silver and gold and nothing is going to impact the
- 0:55price of anything like supply and demand.
- 0:58And we've got some big news to look at in that area.
- 1:01But first, let's get up to speed the best we can with the
- 1:05situation in the Middle East because that also is having a
- 1:08major impact, hopefully not just for the short term on the price
- 1:14of silver and gold. And we're going to put in not a
- 1:16disclaimer, but a fact. We don't like war, we don't like
- 1:20violence. We don't like the fact that now
- 1:224600 people have died in Palestine and obviously the
- 1:26people that have died in Israel. We don't like any of that.
- 1:30This is not taking sides. This is just me reporting the
- 1:33news the best I can about what the latest is going on there and
- 1:37I'll give you my opinion. It feels like the level of
- 1:42contention in that area continues to ramp up and that is
- 1:46scary in many ways. Now remember, silver and gold
- 1:51are a safe harbor asset, a flight to safety asset and one
- 1:55that is growing in importance by the day and by the week.
- 1:59We don't want the violence, we don't want the war, but we have
- 2:03to stay abreast to what's going on because it will impact the
- 2:06price of the metals, the value of the metals and with.
- 2:10Fewer and fewer people wanting to move to the dollar or the
- 2:15Treasury bonds as a safe harbor asset, the allure of silver and
- 2:20gold continues to increase. So here's some some latest news
- 2:25of what I'm hearing over there and then we'll talk about an
- 2:27analysis of the situation And then we're going to move right
- 2:30into this peak gold, peak silver situation that could lead to
- 2:34skyrocketing prices in the metals as we go into the next
- 2:39number of let's say quarters and years.
- 2:41OK. So like I said, we have, I've
- 2:44heard that now we've had 4600 people that have been killed in
- 2:48the Gaza area. Interesting developments with
- 2:51China. I heard a report and again
- 2:54there's a lot of conflicting info out there.
- 2:56So you know, corroborate all of this as you will, but the 44th
- 3:01Chinese naval export has arrived in the Middle East.
- 3:05That's six warships to me. That's a big ratcheting up in
- 3:10this conflict. If the Chinese are now sending
- 3:13warships in the Chinese Navy is quite impressive.
- 3:17That's not a good development when we've got the United States
- 3:20sending warships, China sending warships.
- 3:23We also know, and this was not really reported in the
- 3:27mainstream media, but over the last 10 days, there was an
- 3:31important meeting. Think about this between Putin
- 3:36and G, yes, the presidents of China and Russia got together
- 3:41within the last 10 days and had a summit.
- 3:43Had a meeting, I believe even. The president of Hungary was
- 3:48meeting with President Putin. Guys, the world is becoming very
- 3:53contentious. Is that a good word?
- 3:56Good way to describe it? Very, very more.
- 4:00And I can't speak where the darn there's more conflict going on
- 4:04than any time that I remember. And it seems like everybody's
- 4:07taking sides. That's not a good thing when it
- 4:10comes to the Israel situation. They're also fighting in the
- 4:13north now with Lebanon. All these Arab countries are
- 4:17banding together. Don't forget that when President
- 4:20Joe Biden flew over there, he had scheduled meetings with some
- 4:23of the Arab heads of state. They cancelled all those
- 4:27meetings. So all that President Biden
- 4:29wound up doing was meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu, right?
- 4:35The president of Israel, Things are getting crazy over there
- 4:39right now, and not in a good way and not anything that we want to
- 4:43see. Let me read this to you.
- 4:46It says at at Cairo Peace Summit, Arab leaders express
- 4:51growing anger with Israel over its war in Gaza.
- 4:55This is from Cairo, from The Associated Press.
- 4:58Egypt and Jordan harshly criticized Israel over its
- 5:02actions in Gaza at a summit on Saturday, a sign that the two
- 5:07Western allies, right those are Western allies that made peace
- 5:12with Israel decades ago, are losing patience with its two
- 5:17week old war with Hamas again not taking sides.
- 5:21That's not my place. This is not a political channel.
- 5:24This is not a religious channel or anything else.
- 5:27This is a channel about silver and gold.
- 5:29I'm just reporting to you that we have two former allies of
- 5:33Israel in the Arab world that are saying they're not happy
- 5:38with what's going on. It just feels like it's another
- 5:41US versus them type scenario that.
- 5:44Only continues to escalate. You know, right?
- 5:47You know You buy silver. You buy gold for its safe haven
- 5:51attributes. And it sure feels like there's a
- 5:54lot of other people throughout the world who are joining you.
- 5:58Does it feel that way? We had an unbelievable run in
- 6:02the gold price over the last few weeks.
- 6:04Will that continue? Will this level of contention
- 6:08continue to ramp up? Right.
- 6:11I mean, we don't want higher gold prices on the back of
- 6:14people suffering throughout the world, but we aren't doing it.
- 6:18You aren't causing this and unfortunately it's hard for me
- 6:23to put this into words for us, but we want to be aware of
- 6:25what's going on and protect ourselves and I think that's
- 6:29what you're doing. So we've had massive anti war
- 6:33protests breaking out throughout the world.
- 6:35It's a crazy, I mean we talked about this over the last months.
- 6:39The world is is becoming crazier.
- 6:44Crazier. I mean, it's not really not
- 6:46funny, but it is than any time that most of us have experienced
- 6:51during our lifetimes. A lot of us don't remember World
- 6:54War 2, right? I mean, this is getting serious.
- 6:58What's going on in the world? Don't.
- 7:00Forget we've got war also going on in Europe, in Europe right
- 7:05now, and now potentially in the Middle East.
- 7:08I was watching a news report right before I came on and
- 7:11they're saying that. The the Israelis are still
- 7:14planning on invading or whatever whatever the word is going into
- 7:18the Gaza Strip where at the same time now they have to their N
- 7:21Lebanon is attacking them that it's going to be A2 front war.
- 7:25We've got the Chinese moving naval vessels into the area.
- 7:30We have the United States. Excuse me, with naval, I mean,
- 7:33the list goes on and on. Let's all hope for the best.
- 7:37Let's all you know, again, maybe take some solace on our own
- 7:42personal levels because that's all we can control, that we
- 7:45aren't involved with this and that we're protecting ourselves
- 7:49with the precious metals. OK, what about, let's shift
- 7:54gears here for a second. What about is the world running
- 7:58out of silver and gold? How do you feel about that?
- 8:02We're going to cover that next. But first, I want to mention to
- 8:05you, we're doing a big giveaway free silver over 20 oz on Black
- 8:11Friday this year. Yes, the day after Thanksgiving.
- 8:14So you got a little time. There's a link.
- 8:16There'll be a link in every video I put out between now and
- 8:20then. There's a short little video
- 8:22that you go. It's like 2 minutes long.
- 8:24You watch it. You don't even have to watch it.
- 8:26You didn't watch to the point where I tell you what you got to
- 8:28do, but there you do have to leave a comment on that video
- 8:32with two specific words and you'll be automatically entered
- 8:35into the giveaway. We got a lot of great stuff.
- 8:38Jim M, who I believe is here on this live stream, don't really
- 8:42kicked it off with a big donation.
- 8:44Pimbex kicked in a 10 ounce bar. The video goes through
- 8:48everything and one person's going to walk away with a big
- 8:52grand prize on this Black Friday.
- 8:54So go check that out when you get a chance.
- 8:57But what about if the world is running out of silver and gold?
- 9:01Well think about this. What determines the price of
- 9:04silver and gold besides those? Crooks at the Comex, we've been
- 9:10manipulating it for years and years, but they can only do that
- 9:14for so long. Guys, at the end of the day,
- 9:16there's going to be one thing that determines the price, the
- 9:20value of silver and gold, and that is supply and demand.
- 9:25Are we at peak supply will, as we move into the future, we see
- 9:31ever decreasing amounts of silver and gold?
- 9:36Being mined out of the ground, I think.
- 9:38That it's a much more realistic possibility than most of us are
- 9:42realizing. And I think the statistics that
- 9:45we are able to glean on this subject indicate to us that if
- 9:50we're not already there, we are already very close to a point
- 9:54where there's not going to be as much silver and gold coming out
- 9:58of the ground. And don't forget, OK?
- 10:01Don't forget. Silver and gold are finite
- 10:05resources. They are finite.
- 10:06They are not infinite. You can't plant seeds in the
- 10:09ground and grow more gold and silver.
- 10:13You can't photocopy it. You can't digitally digitally
- 10:16reproduce it. You can't.
- 10:19There's only so much silver and gold on this planet.
- 10:23OK, that's kind of the basis of of what's behind.
- 10:27Thank you, Susie. I'll turn on my walkie-talkie.
- 10:29Sorry. Hold on guys, Susie's yelling at
- 10:32me. I had to turn on the
- 10:35walkie-talkie. Is your walkie-talkie on Susie
- 10:38it? Is.
- 10:40Make sure you ring the bell, but do it away from the microphone,
- 10:43please. OK, OK, I got to ring the bell.
- 10:45We got 100 thumbs up, man. Over 250 people.
- 10:49Wow. These live streams.
- 10:54I ring the bell 10 times when we get 100 thumbs up.
- 10:57These live streams are getting out of control.
- 11:00How did this happen? Thank you guys all for being
- 11:02here. OK, man, you are a basement
- 11:05dweller. We are together.
- 11:06We love to talk about silver and gold.
- 11:09And right now we're talking about the world running out of
- 11:12silver and gold. We already know.
- 11:15Think about demand. Think about demand for silver.
- 11:18You know it. Solar electronic.
- 11:23Investor demand, right? What about?
- 11:25What about times of economic uncertainty?
- 11:28What about times of geopolitical uncertainty?
- 11:30Think about gold. What about the central banks
- 11:33that are like sucking up in the Eastern countries?
- 11:36You know, the demand story. But what about the supply story?
- 11:41Are we indeed? Let's focus on.
- 11:43Let's focus on a couple things. I got a lot.
- 11:46We got a lot to cover on this subject.
- 11:49Let me let me let me read this to you first and then I'm going
- 11:52to tell you some information about the supply of silver and
- 11:56gold, right, that I I believe to be some very keen insights into
- 12:01what we have to expect even within just the next 10 years.
- 12:06It's going to get very, very interesting.
- 12:09OK, let me read this. It says in in July of 2012,
- 12:14Natural Resource Holdings CEO Racer Bag wrote a report
- 12:18entitled 2012 World Gold Deposits Ranking, claiming that
- 12:23gold production would peak between 2022 and 2025 due to
- 12:28markedly lower grades. That's key.
- 12:32OK. These mines when they're mining
- 12:35now, there's not as much silver, there's not as much gold in the.
- 12:39Ore that they dig up all the easy stuff, all the low hanging
- 12:43fruit. Has been harvested.
- 12:45All the stuff that was laying in streams out in California, all
- 12:49the stuff that was right near the surface with a lot of gold
- 12:52in it. Guys, it's all gone.
- 12:54It's all gone OK and remote locations.
- 12:58That's another big challenge facing the mining companies.
- 13:01A lot of the new, when they do find the new deposit, they're
- 13:05off out in the middle of nowhere.
- 13:07You got a helicopter, everything in or you got to float it in on
- 13:10barges or you got to bring it in on airplanes under these remote
- 13:14airstrips. There aren't roads leading to
- 13:17many of these mine locations where they.
- 13:19Are finding what little silver and gold are left in the crust
- 13:24of the Earth. And don't forget, there's not an
- 13:26infinite supply you can't grow. Silver and gold.
- 13:31I wish you could, right? Get a little pack of seeds, put
- 13:33it in the garden. Yeah, grow yourself some gold.
- 13:35No, it doesn't work that way. It just doesn't work that way.
- 13:39It's a finite resource. Now I got to get back to this
- 13:43article of the remaining known undeveloped deposits, quote
- 13:47quote. Consequently, the guaranteed
- 13:51depletion depletion. That's a keyword in the existing
- 13:55production mix coupled with a more realistic introduction of
- 14:00new mines into the mixed makes it clear that barring multiple
- 14:05high grade, multi million ounce discoveries each year, which
- 14:09have not happened, they aren't finding new gold right.
- 14:13A significant increase in gold production is unlikely and the
- 14:18same thing is true for silver. OK guys, the same thing is true
- 14:22for silver. There's charts out there.
- 14:26Here's the reality. I talked to the CEOs, OK?
- 14:29Actually, tomorrow I'll have an interview coming out where I
- 14:32talk to the Alistair, still the CEO of Gold Mining, Inc.
- 14:38I talked to Dan Wilton, the CEO of First Mining Gold.
- 14:42I talked to Sean Coon Coon, the CEO of Dolly Barden Silver, John
- 14:48Lee, the CEO of Silver Elephant. All these guys in the last
- 14:52month. Guys, here's the reality.
- 14:55It's next to impossible to find new silver and gold.
- 15:00Fact okay. Fact.
- 15:03If you're a company that already has it, you're sitting in good
- 15:06shape, Okay. But it's it's super expensive.
- 15:11In the places you have to go to try to find it, and with
- 15:15sentiment, the way it is right now, we are sitting in the
- 15:18catbird seat. I tell you, you are a catbird.
- 15:22Whatever, I can't. What is a catbird seat anyway?
- 15:25You're sitting in a favorable position if you own some silver
- 15:29or gold right now because finding the new metal is very
- 15:32difficult. These companies like First
- 15:35Mining Gold, who's the sponsor of my channel, they have what,
- 15:3825 million ounce deposits in Canada and another 3 million.
- 15:42They have 13 million ounces of gold in the ground.
- 15:45I think those companies like Gold Mining Inc, they have 23
- 15:49million ounces of gold in the ground.
- 15:52Dolly Vard and Silver has what I think 100 million ounces of
- 15:56silver, Summa silver. I'm going to be talking to the
- 15:59CEO Galen of Summa Silver this. Week.
- 16:02They have this massive deposit out in Nevada of silver.
- 16:07I think that's the place to be. I think think about this, think
- 16:11about this. Would you rather be a big
- 16:13producing gold mining company right now?
- 16:16You're doing nothing but burning.
- 16:19That's what these these companies, the big gold mining
- 16:22companies have been through such a tough and silver.
- 16:25Excuse me. Hold on a second.
- 16:27I'm losing my voice. And silver mining companies have
- 16:37had a very difficult 10 years. What does that have to do with
- 16:41the price of your stack, right? I know you're thinking about
- 16:43yourself. We all do.
- 16:45That's OK. What does that have to do with
- 16:48the value of your stack of silver and gold?
- 16:50It's got everything to do with it because in the end I'm going
- 16:55to bang the table, see everything's moving.
- 16:57Can you hear that? In the end, supply and demand,
- 17:03Mother Nature, the market forces will determine the value of the
- 17:09metals. OK, now when I talk to these
- 17:12CEOs, they all tell me the same thing.
- 17:15It's darn near impossible to find any new.
- 17:18Metal. So are we at peak silver and
- 17:21gold? Very likely we are or maybe
- 17:25we're already past the peak or maybe we're right at the peak.
- 17:28OK, but but it is a, a, a, a a market reality right now OK that
- 17:37that there is less and less of the metal coming on to the
- 17:43scene. So would you rather be right?
- 17:46Now think about this this is this is the this because?
- 17:50The gold miners supply the new gold to the market.
- 17:53The silver miners supply the new silver to the market.
- 17:56Now most silver comes as a byproduct of copper mining, zinc
- 18:00mining and lead mining. You need to know that like 80%
- 18:03of it but but would think about these companies over the last 10
- 18:07years, it has been extremely difficult right because of price
- 18:12of the metal for those companies to operate.
- 18:14So they are. They've they've been grabbing
- 18:17all the easiest silver, all the easiest gold they could get out
- 18:21of their minds just to survive, just so they could break even or
- 18:26pay off big debts that they have what they haven't been doing,
- 18:31okay, so they've been running on full steam.
- 18:34Ahead. Producing all that they could
- 18:36just to survive. Okay just to survive.
- 18:41Maybe being forced to pay out dividends, Pay off debt.
- 18:44But what they haven't been doing is investing.
- 18:46They did all those other things right, Paid dividends, paid off
- 18:50debt at the expense of their pipeline, right?
- 18:54Their new gold and silver are finite resources.
- 18:59Gold and silver mining are depletion businesses.
- 19:02Meaning every time they dig up an ounce of silver or gold out
- 19:06of the ground, that's one less that they have that they can dig
- 19:10up in the future. So they have to constantly feed
- 19:12their pipeline and they haven't been able to do that because of
- 19:17it's set up a a situation where I think #1, if you're a stacker
- 19:24and you have some physical silver, physical gold, platinum
- 19:28for that matter as well. You're sitting in very good
- 19:31shape. If you're a company that has
- 19:33been investing in in buying because everything's been cheap
- 19:38up these massive deposits of of of known and measured.
- 19:44Gold and silver in the ground and buying them on the cheap,
- 19:48right? You could buy silver projects
- 19:50for like a dollar an ounce because the market is so screwed
- 19:54up, right? Would you rather be a company
- 19:56that's like burning through all your inventory and hardly making
- 20:00any money? Or would you rather be a company
- 20:03like First Mining Gold or a person like you sitting on
- 20:08right, a company like First Mining Gold that's got all this
- 20:11gold in the ground. Gold Mining Inc, Dolly Vard and
- 20:14Silver Summa Silver that have all these millions of Oz of
- 20:20silver and gold in the ground, the best vault in the world.
- 20:23You know, I like to say the only thing I love to hold it in my
- 20:27hands. I don't have any within reach.
- 20:30But the next best, best thing to holding some silver or gold in
- 20:33your hand would be to know that you own part of a company that
- 20:37holds a boatload of it in the world's safest vault, right 300
- 20:43meters down, buried in the earth.
- 20:45Nobody's going to come steal it from you.
- 20:47It's a very interesting situation.
- 20:49Now as we look at peak gold and peak silver, we know this from
- 20:53the Silver Institute, all right. And it's not been catastrophic
- 20:58as of yet. I'm not going to over
- 21:00exaggerate, but in 2020, one 827,000,000 ounces of silver
- 21:05were produced. 2020, two 822 million, easy to remember,
- 21:12right, but down and not down significantly but down by 5
- 21:16million oz. But think about that in the
- 21:20context of how the deficit is growing.
- 21:24The deficit meaning there was way more silver demanded in 2022
- 21:30than in 2021. Estimates for the future are
- 21:33mind boggling for silver alone, right?
- 21:37You know the solar demand numbers.
- 21:39They are, they are. They're spine tingling.
- 21:44The amount of silver that's going to be needed to electrify
- 21:47the planet, to develop the the solar industry is absolutely
- 21:52crazy. And don't forget, nobody's
- 21:55nobody. I mean, nobody is exploring for
- 21:58silver. So in the past ten years, the
- 22:01big companies have paid off dividends, paid off debt.
- 22:04Right, just did what they could to survive.
- 22:07But they aren't exploring for silver and gold at the expense
- 22:11of their supply and the supply from the mines that the mine,
- 22:15that's the supply for silver and gold.
- 22:19Now we talked yesterday, there's about 4 billion ounces of silver
- 22:24on the surface right now. Again, these numbers are
- 22:28contested by everyone, but half of that is owned by individual
- 22:33investors. Half of that isn't practically
- 22:35owned by the banks. We've got this massive imbalance
- 22:41where there's 250 million additional ounces of silver
- 22:46being demanded over what is being supplied.
- 22:49That's eating away, right? Eating away the silver.
- 22:52Institute told us that the deficit last year ate up.
- 22:56I think it was like. 11 years worth of previous year's
- 22:59surplus. These numbers are absolutely
- 23:03real guys. And mining is.
- 23:05Don't you forget the two keywords for US basement
- 23:09dwellers today. Depletion, right.
- 23:12Every time somebody digs up. Hey, thank you, Craig.
- 23:15I forgot about super chats. Wow.
- 23:17Super chats. Thank you, Count derpula.
- 23:19More cowbell. When we get to 200 Thumbs up.
- 23:22That's the basement dweller tradition.
- 23:24We ring the cowbell. You got it.
- 23:26Thank you, Craig Edmonds. And thank you Count Derpula for
- 23:30the Super chats. Never expected always
- 23:32appreciated and help support the family and the channel.
- 23:36So thank you 2 keywords for you right now.
- 23:40Sometimes we got to review things.
- 23:42Depletion right. Every time somebody digs up an
- 23:45ounce of silver or gold out of the ground, that's one less
- 23:48available to dig up #2. Finite, right?
- 23:52There is just if Mother Earth is creating more gold or silver, I
- 23:57don't know. It's happening in very slow
- 23:59process. It took billions of years for
- 24:03the metal that's on this planet to be developed.
- 24:06OK, so maybe, I don't know, maybe Mother Earth creates
- 24:09another oz or two per year. That's just my estimate.
- 24:14OK? I'm not.
- 24:15I'm not. I have no scientific proof on
- 24:18which to back that up. But that's the official Ron's
- 24:20basement stance. The new amount of silver and
- 24:24gold produced by Mother Earth comes in about 1 ounce, a little
- 24:28under an ounce per year. OK, what to do?
- 24:31OK, so, so here, here, think about it.
- 24:34If you're ACEO of a big mining company, OK And and and you're
- 24:38now you're looking out three, four years in the future, you're
- 24:41in big trouble. You're in big trouble because
- 24:44your pipeline is empty. You've already grabbed all the
- 24:47low hanging fruit, right? You forgot to put gas in the gas
- 24:51tank. There's another way to think
- 24:53about it. You're getting near.
- 24:55You know, you got a little under a quarter tank of gas right now.
- 24:58What are you going to do? Are they going to explore for
- 25:02gold on their own? OK, number one, that's
- 25:05expensive. It's extremely expensive to
- 25:08explore to drill for gold or silver for that matter, #2.
- 25:13It's risky. There's no.
- 25:14Guarantee. You could spend all that money
- 25:17right up in the Golden Triangle in in British Columbia.
- 25:21Or you could go to South America.
- 25:22Or you could go to West Africa. It's risky.
- 25:27You don't know. You could spend all that money,
- 25:30right, and not know that you're going to find anything. #3 It's
- 25:36time consuming. It takes years and years and
- 25:40years. To to do all that drilling and
- 25:43to find what gold that you're hoping to find.
- 25:45So think about it, you're going to what if you're running a big
- 25:48mining, This is why they aren't going to go out looking OK.
- 25:53Which again will put constrain on the supply of silver and gold
- 25:58and in the end will be a super guys, we're in a business with a
- 26:03limited supply silver and gold. Congratulations my fellow
- 26:07basement dwellers. There's only so much out there
- 26:11We're going to get. We're going to get to the kicker
- 26:13here in just one second. But since there's only so much
- 26:16out there, if you want to get a little bit for yourself right
- 26:18now, let's go check out our friends pin backs, another
- 26:23official sponsor of Ron's basement Pin backs.
- 26:25Okay. Online bullion dealer Silver,
- 26:29Gold, Platinum if you want a one stop shop.
- 26:32In my opinion, I think it's one of the best places available,
- 26:36best prices, best service and I trust them.
- 26:39Do your own due diligence but I think you will discover like I
- 26:44did. Pimbex is best Pi, MB EX and
- 26:48also first mining gold F FM. GF is the stock symbol.
- 26:53If you want to get more information about them, don't
- 26:55forget 13 million ounces of gold in the ground in Canada, you can
- 27:01talk. To a real life human at first
- 27:04mining gold and he's a heck of a great guy.
- 27:07Paul Morris his e-mail address is in the description of this
- 27:10and every video that I put out learn more about the company
- 27:14right See if it's something that's of interest to you.
- 27:16Now remember we're we're executives welcome fellow
- 27:21basement dweller. We're playing.
- 27:23We're going to. Be the CEO.
- 27:25You're the CEO of your own house.
- 27:27I'm the CEO of this basement. I don't even get the whole
- 27:30house. Because Susie rules the house.
- 27:33Don't forget, guys, here's a little story for you.
- 27:36Now you want to know why I'm in the basement?
- 27:37I'll tell you why I'm in the basement.
- 27:40I bought this house before we got married.
- 27:43And then we got married about a year later and Susie moved in
- 27:47and she acquired half the house. Suddenly everything changed
- 27:53before she moved in, right? I was sleeping on an air
- 27:56mattress in the family room and she actually brought furniture
- 28:00into the house, started changing everything.
- 28:02I eventually had to put my foot down and I said, that's fine,
- 28:06you can do whatever you want in the whole house.
- 28:08But any room with a concrete floor I'm in charge of, that
- 28:11would be the garage and the basement.
- 28:13That's why I'm in the basement, because I ruled the basement.
- 28:16She rules the house. Why did I tell?
- 28:18I don't even know why I told you that story, but I had to put my
- 28:21foot down at some point. Now let's let's get back to
- 28:25being CE OS. You're ACEO, right?
- 28:28You're the CEO of your house. That's where I went from that.
- 28:30I'm the CEO of the basement anyway, right?
- 28:33Think if you're the CEO of a mining company and you're
- 28:36running out of gold, you're like, well, we got to find more
- 28:39gold. We need to get more gold to
- 28:40mine. Are you going to go exploring?
- 28:42OK, remember it's expensive. It's risky because there's no
- 28:47guarantee you're going to get any return on your money and it
- 28:51takes years and years. It takes like 10 years from the
- 28:53time they discover gold or silver in the ground to the
- 28:56point where they could actually, under the best case scenario, be
- 29:00mining that silver and gold. No, you're going to go and
- 29:05you're going to be. You're going to try to buy a
- 29:06company that already a small company.
- 29:08They're called developers or, you know, companies start out as
- 29:12explorers, They're exploring, and then after they find the
- 29:16gold, they become developers, meaning they're developing it
- 29:19from the resource they found in the ground up to the point where
- 29:23maybe they're starting to get a permit.
- 29:25And it takes a decade minimum for all that to occur.
- 29:30OK, The big mining companies aren't going to go out exploring
- 29:33on their own. They're not going to find more
- 29:34supply. They're not going to add more.
- 29:37No, they're just going to buy up companies that already have it.
- 29:40Development companies, possibly companies like First Mining,
- 29:44Gold Gold Mining Inc, Dolly Vard and Silver Silver Elephant,
- 29:49Summa Silver are going to become very valuable.
- 29:52Possibly, right? There's no guarantees.
- 29:54I'm not giving financial advice. I'm just telling you what I kind
- 29:58of see transpiring out there. But the good news for you as a
- 30:01stacker of silver and gold. Is that these big companies
- 30:07aren't, haven't been, and are very unlikely to go out and
- 30:12spend 10s of millions of dollars trying to increase the supply of
- 30:18silver and gold. They just aren't going to do it
- 30:20because of those 3 aforementioned things.
- 30:23It's expensive, time consuming, and risky.
- 30:26OK. So the value of the silver that
- 30:29you're maybe holding in your hand right now or you're looking
- 30:33at or where the heck you keep it and gold?
- 30:36Right isn't going anywhere. And on top of that, look at all
- 30:40the other insanity going on in the world right now.
- 30:43We've already covered all that. I mean, it is crazy.
- 30:47We're not going to go down this path.
- 30:49But would you, would you have believed this?
- 30:51Go. Let's go in a little time
- 30:52machine. Five years ago before Ron's
- 30:54basement was really a thing. OK, thank you.
- 30:58Coin shop. Chris, I missed the Super chat.
- 31:00I will get to it and I am going to ring the bell.
- 31:02When we get to 200 thumbs up, it's Come on, man, press that
- 31:05thumbs up. It feels good to press it.
- 31:07Trust me. Give it a try.
- 31:08Press the thumbs up. It helps us get the word out to
- 31:11more and more people. Let's get to 200 thumbs up.
- 31:15We're on a time machine. Keep losing my track.
- 31:19Does that happen to you as you get older?
- 31:21You get off track easily. Let's all review.
- 31:26We're all together. We're basement dwellers.
- 31:28We're in the basement. It's five years ago.
- 31:33OK? I'm trying to stay on track like
- 31:35you tell me. Oh, hold on.
- 31:38I'm trying to stay on track like you tell me to, and then I get
- 31:41off track. That's very difficult.
- 31:46No, I know. I love you.
- 31:47OK, I'm going to ring the bell in a second.
- 31:50Let me finish The Time Machine. And then I got to ring the bell
- 31:53and then I got to find that super chat and say thank you.
- 31:56Super chats are awesome. Five years ago.
- 31:59What year would that be, 2018. Would you believe?
- 32:03Here we are. You and I are sitting down,
- 32:05We're having a cup of coffee and you're always, you know, if
- 32:08you're ever in Saint Louis, look me up, we'll have a cup of
- 32:10coffee. We're sitting down.
- 32:12And I tell you in 2018 that we're going to have a global.
- 32:16Pandemic. Whatever you want to call it.
- 32:18Health crisis, C19 OK, they're going to shut the world down.
- 32:23Oh, and then it gets better. the United States government, when
- 32:26that happens, is going to print 40% more U.S. dollars.
- 32:32Let that sink in. What does that mean?
- 32:35the US government is going to print 40%.
- 32:39That means for every $100 that existed, there now exists
- 32:44$140.00 and we're like, hey, I wonder why we have inflation,
- 32:49Jerome. Right.
- 32:50They do that. And then they have the nerve to
- 32:52tell us, oh, we don't think, Sir, inflation's transitory.
- 32:56My God, you just printed for every $100, you printed another
- 33:0040. You're going to tell me that's
- 33:02not going to be inflationary? Right.
- 33:04They can't print silver and gold.
- 33:06Don't forget they couldn't. You know, for every 100 ounces
- 33:09of gold, you can't print another 40.
- 33:12For every 100 ounces of silver, you can't print another 40.
- 33:16OK, this is five years ago. We're still having our cup of
- 33:18coffee. I tell you about all that and
- 33:20then I tell you. Then I tell you.
- 33:21But it gets even better. We're going to have a full blown
- 33:26war in in Europe. You'd be like what?
- 33:32Yeah, like a like basically a war between the West and the
- 33:35East. And that's what it is.
- 33:37Let's call it what it is, right. They, some people call it a
- 33:40proxy war, whatever you want to call it.
- 33:43Oh, and then guess what? It gets even better because a
- 33:47couple years later, we're going to have a full out war in
- 33:52Israel, which is a tragedy right on both sides.
- 33:55Would you believe me? I mean, come on, man.
- 33:59And it's unbelievable. It's unbelievable.
- 34:02OK. Oh, I got to ring the bell.
- 34:05Thank you for helping me. Remember, 200 thumbs up, man.
- 34:09That's a big deal. We got almost 350 basement
- 34:12dwellers together on a Sunday morning.
- 34:14Work, work. We're cutting through the
- 34:16cheese, whatever that means. Let's ring the cowbell to
- 34:20celebrate. 200 thumbs up. That is a loud bell.
- 34:45My ears are ringing. Woof.
- 34:47OK, all right, that's just what's going on.
- 34:52OK. Big silver and gold companies
- 34:54are burning through all their metals, trying to make just a
- 34:57little bit of money while in the shadows, in the shadows, behind
- 35:02the scenes, under the covers, the development companies are
- 35:06building up resources in the ground and they're doing it on
- 35:10the cheap silver and gold development companies.
- 35:13These will become very valuable to the big companies in the
- 35:16future. I cannot see the future.
- 35:21I am not giving financial advice.
- 35:23OK, but when I? You know, we like to think it's
- 35:27like chess. I don't play chess, but I know
- 35:30the basic, you know, like you're thinking out.
- 35:32You're thinking if this happens, that you're thinking of
- 35:35different variables, different things.
- 35:37When I look out there, it sure looks good for the development
- 35:41companies. And it sure looks good for any
- 35:43company or any person, including you, who has some silver or gold
- 35:48that they are holding on their person in their person.
- 35:53OK, hold on here before I forget.
- 35:55Oh, this is great. My friend Kevin, Kevin K this
- 36:00was a few days ago, but you know the US debt clock.
- 36:03Have you ever gone to that website?
- 36:05It gives all these different figures about the United States
- 36:08government debt, everything else.
- 36:10He pointed out to me that just recently, per U.S. citizen,
- 36:15anyone who's alive and has a pulse in the United States of
- 36:19America, Are you ready for this? We now have over 100, excuse me,
- 36:25$100,000 per person in debt. Is this, I mean, is it even?
- 36:33Does it, does it even compute at this point?
- 36:37I don't think it does. I think we are headed into some
- 36:39very challenging, difficult times with all this debt,
- 36:44everything that's been piled up in this country.
- 36:48And now I did the math the other day, correct me if I'm wrong,
- 36:52OK. You know the 100 billion, I
- 36:54don't know if that would the the for for aid to Israel and for
- 36:57aid to the Ukraine 100 billion. You know what that is per
- 37:01person. I divided 100 billion by 330
- 37:04million. I came up with $300.00.
- 37:07Go get. 300 three $100 bills. Paper.
- 37:11It's all Unicorn fart dust, right?
- 37:13Do you want to give? Do you do you want somebody
- 37:16knocked on your door right now and said, would you like to
- 37:18donate $300 to a war? Would you do it right?
- 37:24I'm not. I'm not.
- 37:25I'm not taking sides. I'm not being political.
- 37:29I'm not being religious. I'm not being anything.
- 37:31I'm just stating a question to you.
- 37:35I come knock on your door and said I'm collecting money.
- 37:38Would you give? Would you go to your wallet,
- 37:40pull out three $100 bills and hand it over?
- 37:43Hey, Sorcerer Stan, everything's bright in the basement.
- 37:47Yes, you've got that right. And I forgot another super chat
- 37:51that I need to go back. So hold on here.
- 37:54Hold the door. Thank you.
- 37:56Sorcerer's Stan Alexander. Matcham, thank you for the Super
- 38:01chat. Yes.
- 38:02And I got the other two. Thank you, guys.
- 38:04Hey look I'll just say this about super chats.
- 38:07They're always super appreciated right.
- 38:11We're we're we're we're supporting our family with the
- 38:14work that we do on this channel. I will assure you that Susie and
- 38:17I work extremely hard on the channel to make this possible.
- 38:22So the Super chats are super helpful, right?
- 38:25And we're we have twin 11 year old.
- 38:27Daughters that are super expensive.
- 38:31Every time I turn around, man, I tell you what it's interesting.
- 38:34Jim M first mining. Yes, thank you, Jim Annie
- 38:38Oakley. Annie, Jim M OK, guys, 300
- 38:43dollars, Ten ounce bar at 2 rounds.
- 38:45Yeah, a coin shop. Chris and I, guys, let's talk
- 38:49about buying silver. OK, You want to do you want a
- 38:53couple key things when you buy silver?
- 38:55Number one, you want to make sure you're getting real silver
- 38:58because there's a lot of fakes out there now.
- 39:01OK, Am I trying to scare you something I really knew nothing
- 39:04about? I'll be honest with you, up
- 39:06until about a year ago, there's fake silver, there's fake gold
- 39:10out there as well. So you always want to make sure
- 39:13that you're buying your precious metals from a reputable source,
- 39:18right? A company that knows what they
- 39:20are doing or that you know what you're doing.
- 39:23If you're buying it off from random people on whatever you
- 39:28know, but nothing you want to make sure you're getting real
- 39:31metal. OK.
- 39:32It was somebody trustworthy that you're buying it from.
- 39:36I don't. I to me the immediate next
- 39:40priority is price, right? I mean, if I'm if I'm converting
- 39:45Unicorn fart dust, paper money into metal, it's the next most
- 39:51important thing is the price. Because if I can buy it for for
- 39:56$30.00 an ounce or $25.00 an ounce for the exact same thing,
- 40:04right? Two trustworthy sources, but one
- 40:08of them is $5.00 an ounce cheaper or $3 per oz cheaper.
- 40:13Why not buy it from the least expensive, knowing that I'm
- 40:18getting the exact same thing? And then the money you save, you
- 40:22can buy yourself more silver or go out to eat or or buy more,
- 40:28whatever you're into, I don't know what you're into.
- 40:31We're all into different things. Coin shop.
- 40:33Chris and I did a video yesterday.
- 40:36It's on the channel. You can check.
- 40:37It out where he demonstrated an example where there was a three
- 40:41hundred $360.00 price difference between one of the major online
- 40:47bullion dealers and Pinbex. OK, I'm I guess I'm plugging
- 40:51Pinbex again, but I'm just telling you a fact.
- 40:53On 100 ounce Royal Canadian Mint bar, $360.00 price difference.
- 40:59And with that money, yes, you could buy yourself A10 oz Bar
- 41:03and three Krugerrands. You can get 13 more.
- 41:07Basically free ounces of silver between the highest price and
- 41:11the lowest price for the exact same.
- 41:14Thing I don't know. To me it's a no brainer.
- 41:20I'd I'd rather get the 100 ounce bar, the 10 ounce bar in the
- 41:24three Kruger ants than just the 100 ounce bar.
- 41:27So I saw that in the comments. Hello, Mary Radcliffe.
- 41:31Good to see you. Mary.
- 41:33Mary. Mary.
- 41:33Count Garpula. Thomas.
- 41:35Tubes. Pinbex is great, but also have a
- 41:41relationship with a local bullion dealer.
- 41:43It's important for selling back later.
- 41:46That's a great, great point. Flannel capital, Absolutely.
- 41:50Yeah. If you want to convert, we're
- 41:53not selling. We're not selling.
- 41:55OK, good. Let's, let's.
- 41:57Talk about that. That's another basement dweller
- 41:59basic. Let's review a basic here,
- 42:01right? We don't.
- 42:02We don't buy or sell precious metals.
- 42:06We convert OK. We convert.
- 42:09We're converting paper into real metals if, if, and I.
- 42:14This is just my recommendation. If you do get a point to a point
- 42:17where you want to convert some of your metal into something
- 42:22else, me personally, I really doubt that I would ever convert.
- 42:26Silver back into paper or digital or Unicorn fart dust,
- 42:31whatever you want to call it, right.
- 42:33I may convert it temporarily into that to use it to buy
- 42:36another real asset like some land or a useful piece of
- 42:40machinery or something along those lines.
- 42:42But we we want to make sure you know that that when we when we
- 42:48divest just my opinion not giving financial advice of our
- 42:52of our metal. That we're using it to move into
- 42:55something else that we believe could accrue in value even more.
- 43:00It's all about value. It's all about value.
- 43:03The price is just a number. Pat.
- 43:05Pat Holland talks about nominal confusion, right?
- 43:09It's just a number, especially when we're talking about
- 43:12dollars. Dollars are just paper made-up
- 43:15numbers. Remember, we just talked about
- 43:18this during the health crisis in 2020.
- 43:22For every hundred of those dollar, paper, dollar,
- 43:26electronic dollars, they created 40 more additional, right?
- 43:31So it's just a number, right? Metal is real.
- 43:35Gold and silver are real. There's a.
- 43:37Huge, huge difference there. Now trust me, I get it.
- 43:41I know it's a it's. I know the battle.
- 43:43I know the battle you're going through 'cause I'm going through
- 43:46it too all. Right.
- 43:47We want to think. I'll tell you the first thing
- 43:50I'll do tomorrow morning. I do a few other things when I
- 43:53wake up, believe it or not, actually read like a little
- 43:56motivate. I read a little motivational
- 43:59reading, and then I read a little thing from the Bible.
- 44:01And I'm not religious. I'm not a.
- 44:03This is not a religious channel. But my cousin and I, we read the
- 44:06same thing. And then we send a text back to
- 44:08each other. Anyway, the next thing I do is
- 44:11I'll check the silver and gold price.
- 44:13I'm guilty, right? I'll check.
- 44:15What the what the conversion rate is for silver and gold in
- 44:20U.S. dollars. Unicorn Barta.
- 44:22So I know the battle, but the reality is the reality.
- 44:28The reality I think Susie hates When I say that you want to know
- 44:32the reality. I'm losing my voice.
- 44:34That's one reality. The other reality is the fact
- 44:38that the value of the metals is inherent in the metal.
- 44:42It doesn't matter. You want to value it in in
- 44:45dollars. You want to value it in oil.
- 44:47You want to value it in bread, wheat, whatever you can.
- 44:51You can compare the value to anything else.
- 44:53The value is inherent in the metal.
- 44:57Show me an electronic dollar and show me the value, right?
- 45:02Yeah, you can temporarily convert it, no doubt about it.
- 45:07Right? But there's no inherent value in
- 45:10a piece of paper. I don't even have any down here
- 45:13anymore. I sent Neil his his Las Vegas.
- 45:15I used to have Las Vegas toilet papers somebody sent me, which
- 45:19were dollar bills. OK, now.
- 45:21Now think about this. Think about this.
- 45:25Are you? Are we the only people who feel
- 45:26that way about that subject? No.
- 45:30There's this other really important Remember what they
- 45:33taught you in grade school way back when?
- 45:36There's this fundamental. Super important thing that they
- 45:47taught us and it has something to do with silver and gold.
- 45:50I'm going to take a quick drink of water so I don't die live
- 45:54here on camera. Don't forget the thumbs up.
- 46:00It feels good. No, you aren't the only one who
- 46:04realizes that you aren't. I'm not the only one.
- 46:07These guys called the Founding Fathers of the United States of
- 46:11America, put it in the Constitution.
- 46:14Yes, silver and gold is the only real forms of money.
- 46:18We've had a bunch of different central banks in the history of
- 46:21this country. Did you know that?
- 46:23Not just the Federal Reserve. No.
- 46:27They've gone through this and and and the and the sneaky
- 46:30bankers always weed their insidious They weasel their way
- 46:33back in. But your Founding Fathers put it
- 46:37in the Constitution for you and me as protection.
- 46:41And now we've got a growing chorus.
- 46:44Can you hear the chorus, A growing chorus of states right,
- 46:48that are passing legislation to allow their citizens to reclaim,
- 46:53reclaim and rejoice, rejoice, but also reclaim their?
- 46:59Right to use silver and gold as real money states like
- 47:02Tennessee. States like Utah, like Idaho, I
- 47:06don't know the whole list off the top of my head, but there's
- 47:08like 13 of them, twelve of them now that have passed legal
- 47:12tender legislation making it, making it absolutely their
- 47:18citizens rights to be able to use silver and gold as real
- 47:22money. So you know, let's be real about
- 47:26something in the United States, right?
- 47:29You. We are.
- 47:30We are the the lone wolves. Don't forget every, well,
- 47:35everywhere else in the world, we're mainstream.
- 47:38Everybody else in the world's mainstream, everybody else in
- 47:40the world also has universal health care.
- 47:42But anyway, that's a different story.
- 47:43Everywhere else in the world, people know the value of silver
- 47:47and gold. Americans have been brainwashed.
- 47:50I'm sorry, that's just the fact. Probably for about 100 years
- 47:53against the value they've been most Americans.
- 47:57Would take a hundred. I bet.
- 48:00I I bet this would be the fact if you if you if you set out
- 48:03five $100 bills and fanned them out really nicely and you had a
- 48:07one ounce gold coin, I bet most Americans and you'd say you can
- 48:11take either one whatever you want.
- 48:13Most Americans would grab the five $100 bills.
- 48:17OK, all right. But but guys that will change
- 48:21over time and I think it is starting to change.
- 48:24Right now, we're seeing that through things like Costco and
- 48:27the other. Things that are occurring right.
- 48:30That's what our it's what our. Oh, I missed another super chat.
