World’s Outlook On Current & Future Situations, & Gold

The World’s Current Situation –

Here are a few facts on what’s been going on around the world just in-case you have been sleeping.

The on-going European crisis has Greece broke, while still on the hook for an additional 5 billion euro’s of debt, that the Greeks will never be able paid back. At the same time, the European officials won’t let Greece slip away from the euro currency so they are trapped.

In Greece, the total number of unemployed under the age of 27 is a staggering 58%. Coming in second place, we have Spain, currently at 54% unemployment for the same age group. Meanwhile there is an average unemployment rate of 30% (all ages) in both these economies. In this current situation, things soon are going to grow completely out of control.

People seem to forget about Japan but reality there, Japan is broke too. Japan’s debt rose from 300 trillion yen to (currently) a staggering 1 quadrillion yen within the past 15 years. All the while Japan’s interest rates were zero. Should Japan ever jack up rates by even a small number say 1-2 percent the economy would have no-way to pay back the new interest. Bottom-line, Japan is another catastrophe just waiting to happen.

Across the globe the average unemployment rate for the younger generation is currently 25 to 50 percent. These figures are unacceptable for any functioning society. They only add to problems the world is currently facing. A time will come (soon) where the people will rise and take matters into their own hands. People are already starving, they need food and they will do anything to get it. Expect public disorder grow.

With all the world’s problems amassing at the same time, expect the only fixes to come from central banks in-which they futilely attempt to print their way out of the problem. In so doing, their balance sheets will just continue to expand. Up until the point where the useless paper they print containing no value at all, can no longer repay the debt.

Problems to Expect Moving Forward –

One of the most worrisome times in history is approaching. At some point, severe troubling times will un-fold, for all to witness. In time, the down-turn in world events will become a long hard road, in an enormously difficult period, to survive through.

There will be an economic collapse that will create more and more social unrest. It will ultimately lead to future wars, requiring more money printing from central bankers to cover war costs. During these times, you will witness interest rates sky-rocket and bonds disintegrate. At the same time you will witness the stock market crash, in real value, when measured against gold.

In the end, the final straw to break the camel’s back will come in the form of hyperinflation. It’s important to understand that as the central bankers continue their quest to print money into infinity, these desperate attempts, will not have any positive or lasting effects to revive the world’s fiscal problems.

Gold’s Reaction -

The ratio for Dow/Gold is near a low, for 2012. However that’s not surprising, in truth, the Dow is expected to continue falling against gold an additional 90% within the next few years. It’s likely that the Dow could collapse against gold in 2013, should this happen, it will start reflecting the true situation upon underlying economy.

Due to the risk in the system and because of what is happening overall in the economy, gold will continue to be reinforced. Gold will also show it’s true value in the face of additional currency supplies through central bank efforts, by moving gold’s value higher. There is a crystal clear reason why gold’s value will increase, that being gold (and silver) will be one of the only true hard assets to safely protect you’re wealth and purchasing power. To hold gold and silver are very easy decisions one can make requiring more common sense, than investment experience. In truth however, the current ownership for gold is no more than 1 percent of the total world’s population.

In the end, everyone must own gold. While currently most people around the world could not quote gold’s current market price, at some point in the future everyone will know current prices for gold. Trading goods and services for it will become common place.

If you currently have any savings it’s best to get it out of the banks. As banks can then re-lend your savings to others, making good rates for themselves, while paying you substandard interest for using it. Protect yourself today from any loss in purchasing power and protect what assets you have left by holding onto physical gold and silver. If possible accumulate small increments monthly as your personal budget allows. Be Prepared!

Preparedness Shelters

Preparedness takes on many topics. One of the most important things to do during a crisis is seek proper shelter, after accessing if the crisis is natural or man-made. Taking into consideration the threat level, in some circumstances a regular home is not adequate enough protection. For your family’s ultimate protection, having your own personal disaster proof shelter is the best line of defense and a safe refuge to hold-up in.

I personally became interested in these forms of shelters and started some on-line searching for a company offering a system w/ total protection, value, quality and comfort in mind. I chose Atlas Shelters based upon quality construction, quality components, number of model selections, available options and value. I am sharing this information with all of you.

For anyone interested in survival shelters please read on.

I found Atlas Survival Shelters at: www.atlassurvivalshelters.com they build-out high quality shelters (and install them) in an assortment of sizes for different purposes. Many of the models are actually buried into the ground down to 20 feet. Many are equipped with a main blast proof hatch door plus a concealed escape hatch on the shelters far end.

You can also have the interiors custom designed to your individual specifications. Depending upon one’s budget, the inside of the shelter can be akin to a RV, even the comfort level of a large high-end RV can be provided. With adequate drinking water and food storage supply, included indoor plumbing, an underground leach field for waste water,120 volt power plus the optional six gel cell battery pack w/ charging system and inverter your family can sustain itself in a truly livable environment for a long period of time.
