Jim Rogers predicts a new recession in 2012

Read entire article HERE.

" With reference to Ben Bernanke, chairman of the US Federal Reserve, he said: "Is Mr Bernanke going to print more money than he already has? No, the world would run out of trees.""

Note: What I like about Jim Rogers is his ability to explain things in terms I can understand. No smoke and mirrors. No double-talk. Unafraid to say unpopular things.

Jim Rogers Interview: "Become a Farmer" (with notes)


-------------
Notes:

1. Abolish the Fed - market will raise rates before the Fed - Fed will follow - watch for currency market turmoil as trigger.
2. Tim Geithner wrong about the solution to our problem being to try to spend our way out of this mess - which is what got us into this. Why are we listening to Tim Geithner when he's been consistently wrong?
3. Gold is already high - not a buy right now - wouldn't think of selling now - buy at $1,000-central banks around world are shifting to buying gold - several thousand an ounce in the next decade
4. Silver-rather own silver than gold, agriculture probably best buy - ?How to buy? he says buy indexes - but the best thing to do is become a farmer. Food inventories lowest in decades - water is a good commodity - water companies - India and China have water problems - find a way to solve their water problems and you can become rich.
5. Could be a rally in the dollar in the short term - sell at that time - then buy yen, swiss francs Can. Dollars - or commodities
6. Paper money (all over world) not to be trusted.
7. UK not going to keep its triple A rating - he owns no sterling.
8. China turns out 10 or 15 times as many engineers as USA - remember what happened with the Japanese auto industry overtaking USA.

Gold heading to $2000 as predicted by Jim Rogers?

Read more here:

"On Monday, gold soared to an all-time high of $1110 per ounce in global markets. Is Jim Rogers laughing all the way to bank, if he has invested in gold cheap some months or years back? Or is he laughing at Nouriel Roubini who has countered last week that Jim Rogers' prediction of gold at $2000 per ounce was simply 'nonsense."

Gerald Celente
Jim Rogers
Mike Whitney
Paul Craig Roberts



Peter Schiff

Just a few for you to look at. Celente invests 1/2 his money in American dollars, 1/2 his money in Euros but has 80% in gold. Doesn't add up to me from the interview - I don't know if he was able to fully explain due to time constraints- but my two bits says to get any money you need liquid and can't afford to lose into gold coin because it will retain its value regardless of the currency value of the country you live in. The best place to position seems to be commodities.

BEWARE of HR 45 - Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sale Act of 2009

I've tried to read and absorb the legalese of HR 45 - you can too if you go (CLICK) here, or here or maybe here.

A summary:
Would make it illegal to own a firearm - any rifle with a clip or ANY pistol unless:
It is registered.
You are fingerprinted.
You supply a current Driver's License.
You supply your Social Security #.
You will submit to a physical & mental evaluation at anytime of their choosing.

Each update - change or ownership through private or public sale must be reported and costs $25 - Failure to do so you automatically lose the right to own a firearm and subject you to up to a year in jail.

There is a child provision clause on page 16 section 305 stating a child-access provision. Gun must be locked and inaccessible to any child under 18.

They would have the right to come and inspect that you are storing your gun safely away from accessibility to children and fine is punishable for up to 5 yrs. in prison.

Perhaps this snippet from the bill says it all:
"SEC. 801. INAPPLICABILITY TO GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES.

2 This Act and the amendments made by this Act shall not apply to any department or agency of the United States, of a State, or of a political subdivision of a State, or to any official conduct of any officer or employee of such a department or agency.
"

How do those who've sworn an (CLICK) oath to the U.S. Constitution square this attack on our inalienable rights with these words (from Wikipedia):

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."
