Dear reader, In my view, Jim Rickards is hands-down the most credible name in the precious metals community. This may sound strange considering he worked on Wall Street (the anti-gold financial establishment) for 35 years. But today, he reveals to Australian investors his own personal gold strategies, formulas, go-to brokers and storage facilities. And this information is accompanied by a special investor report from Jim’s Australian Investment Director, which shows you how to leverage any up-moves in gold for potentially huge gains. If you’re interested in increasing your exposure to gold, you’ll want to learn these ideas first. Click here, or scroll down for details… Cheers, James Woodburn Publisher, The Daily Reckoning Australia SEND ME YOUR ADDRESS And I’ll rush you a copy of my new, 2017 edition hardcover to your doorstep, ASAP. Why am I doing this? Read on… Hi, Jim Rickards here. I want to warn you about the biggest looming monetary ‘reset’ the world has seen in 150 years. Central banks and governments across the world have manipulated the markets…printed money…and suppressed interest rates to such a level… I believe a worldwide economic collapse is now inevitable. If I’m right, it will be the biggest in modern economic history. It could be bigger than 2008… It could cause the hardest one-day drop in global markets since October 1987… And create the longest total asset price fall since 1929. Now, I fully realise this might sound hyperbolic. But let me stress… When I talk about an International Monetary System collapse, I’m not being hyperbolic or provocative. Over the past century, a monetary collapse has actually been a regular occurrence. It forced the major financial and trading powers of the time to sit down around a table and simply rewrite the ‘rules of the game’. Think about it… In 1922…Genoa, Italy, where, after the First World War, the world returned to a partial gold standard... In 1944…Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, where the gold-backed US dollar became the de facto world reserve currency… In 1971…the ‘Smithsonian Agreement’ in Washington, DC, where the gold window and fixed exchange rates were forever altered, and the current ‘age of inflation’ began. Fact is, these ‘rule changes’ happen every 30 years or so. They’ve been happening since historical records began. We’re well past due for another one. It’s coming… And Australia, and most of its citizens — including YOU—are woefully unprepared Let me show you why. When it comes to gold — gold in the ground and gold mining — there’s no question Australia is a superpower. In terms of its gold reserves, you’re sitting on a literal gold mine. In terms of gold mining output, you’re in the ‘Big 10’, and have been for years. But you face two problems… First, there’s a big difference between gold in the ground and official gold or government reserves. When it comes to government reserves, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA), is actually pathetically small relative to the size of the Australian economy. Take a look: Australia is behind Libya, Greece and Iraq in gold reserves Source: World Gold Council, June 2017 Australia, because its economy is significantly smaller than, say, China or the United States, reckons it doesn’t need as much OFFICIAL gold. But, as I show you in my book, The New Case for Gold… I believe this shortfall is about to become a big problem for every Australian Australia has dangerously little gold relative to the size of its economy, which is significant. You have this disparity between private gold and gold mining on one hand…and official gold on the other. The problem with this: Official gold is what counts when it comes to the International Monetary System. If there is a collapse in the International Monetary System, which I fully expect, the countries with the largest gold reserves will have the most bargaining chips. And countries with small gold reserves will be extremely vulnerable to their power. I explain why in The New Case for Gold. STRICTLY LIMITED 2017 PRINT-RUN! CLICK HERE TO CLAIM YOUR COPY But there’s a second, more immediate reason I’ve greenlit such a big giveaway on The New Case for Gold in Australia. (All you have to cover is the $7.95 for post and packing. This means we will not make a cent on it. In fact, it will cost $17.63 to print and ship every copy. So my new Australian publisher, Agora Financial Australia, will actually LOSE $9.68 with each copy shipped.) We’re swallowing this cost because I’ve decided it’s time to do something about the low level of private gold ownership in Australia. You see, I know that most Australians still have not bought any gold… Or haven’t bought enough. Worse yet, many people have bought exactly the wrong kind of gold. Many are abandoning gold as an asset in favour of cryptocurrencies like bitcoin or ethereum. But I promise you, this is a monumental mistake. Which is why, for a limited time, I’d like to rush you a copy of my 2017 edition hardcover, The New Case for Gold, to the doorstep of any Australian resident with a valid mailing address, as soon as possible. All you have to do is pay the $7.95 shipping and handling fee. Please listen very carefully… DO NOT buy an ounce of gold until you read this book Look, I’ve spent the last 35 years in risk analysis. In fact, I’ve personally been called in to advise the CIA, the Pentagon, and other agencies that oversee global security. I’m telling you this because when there’s a massive threat to the financial markets and world economy...it’s often my phone that rings. And lately it’s been ringing a lot... ‘I’m warning anybody who will listen…’ You see, when you look at the West’s hardest times — the Great Depression, the Second World War, the stagflation of the 1970s — there were always a few who made fortunes. They saw the crisis coming and took the right steps beforehand to prepare. Wealth was simply transferred from unprepared investors to those who took action. This time will be no different. And as history has shown time and time again, one of the best ways to ensure you’ll be on the winning side of this massive wealth transfer is by owning physical gold. In The New Case for Gold, I provide specific and essential wealth-protecting ideas, techniques and strategies I’m taking with my own family’s money, to help ensure you’ll be on the winning side of the massive coming wealth transfer. It’s essentially a fully-rounded survival strategy for the coming financial storm. In The New Case for Gold, you will learn: The most secure private gold depository on the planet. I've personally visited their vaults. I’ve seen the gold bars with serial numbers, dates, refinery stamps, assay stamps, and numbers indicating weight and purity — and seen the ledgers that confirmed that all the gold was present and accounted for. If you own a gold fund, make sure it’s one of these. (Page 163) My personal gold-buying formula. How much gold should you actually buy? You don’t need to bet the farm (not even close), but buying too little gold could leave you dangerously under-prepared. There’s a simple formula for determining how much gold any person should have leading into the collapse. Whether you have $5,000 or $5 million, follow this formula and you should be prepared to weather the coming storm. This information by itself is worth several times the OFFICIAL cost of this book. (Page 166) Should you buy gold online? There are only a handful of online bullion dealers in the world that I’ll personally do business with. These are the most trusted names in the industry, with a long and reputable track record, yet I’m certain 99% of investors have never heard of these dealers before. If reputation and peace of mind are important to you, stick with one of these firms. (Page 152) The Chinese gold warfare plan and its impact on every Australian who DOESN’T hold any gold. I was invited to Australia in August 2012 to speak at a private investor gathering in Sydney. It was there I told my small audience that the US was the Saudi Arabia of gold reserves and China was a gold pigmy. Four years on, that is no longer the case. China has now acquired, by my estimate, around 5,000 tonnes of gold in the last six years. China now has a large amount of chips in a very important poker game. The outcome of this game could dramatically affect your savings and your retirement if you own any traditional investments like stocks and bonds — and especially if you’re dependent on a fixed income. (Page 115) Is storing gold in your home a huge mistake? What’s the best place for small gold holders to store gold? For starters, steer clear of banks, storage units, and anywhere on your property or in your home. For small bullion holders, there’s probably no safer place to store your gold than where you’ll discover on page 154 of my book. A super-secret, much more portable version of ‘gold’. This overlooked asset achieves the same store of value as gold (it’s not silver, platinum or any other precious metal), yet it’s much easier to transport should the ‘you know what’ hit the fan. It’s been used by some of the richest families in the world to protect their wealth for centuries. Today, billionaire investors — from Microsoft founder Bill Gates to hedge fund tycoon Steve Cohen — have millions invested in this asset. (Page 169) Want higher returns than gold with less volatility? Consider a little-known composite investment consisting of gold, silver, platinum and palladium. This unique option offers a more diversified, stable manner to own bullion. And since this investment is backed by 100% real, physical bullion, you have the option of converting your holdings into physical metal for delivery. As far as we know, this investment isn’t available anywhere else. I will tell you exactly where to find it and how you can get started. (Page 153) Should you store your gold overseas? Overseas storage will definitely make sense for a lot of people, especially those with large amounts of gold, but there are two crucial factors you must take into account before considering this option. Plus, my favourite jurisdiction in the world for overseas storage. This country has a good rule of law, political stability, and a well-trained military, and has not been successfully invaded in more than 500 years. (Page 153) Are you making the number one gold-buying mistake? This is without doubt the biggest danger for private gold investors in 2017. You should never — EVER — buy gold this way. If you do, you’re putting yourself and your finances at serious risk. (Page 165) Five critical requirements ANY gold storage provider absolutely — 100% — MUST meet. Are you thinking of storing your gold with a third-party provider? Well, there are five critical factors that every private gold storage company absolutely MUST meet. Your gold is at serious risk if your storage facility doesn’t meet all five of these essential requirements! (Page 152) The single greatest ‘BUY’ indicator EVER devised for gold. I learned this secret from my friend and master commodities trader, Jim Rogers. Rogers co-founded the Quantum Fund in the early 1970s, which earned a massive 4,200% in 10 years and enabled him to retire at age 37. Rogers says THIS is the only indicator you should be paying attention to when buying gold. In fact, gold is nearing this critical entry point right now, as of this writing! (Page 145) HANDS OFF MY CASH! The number one way to avoid banks legally taking your money. This isn’t common knowledge, but after the crash of Cyprus in 2013, a number of banking regulators around the world said that bail-ins (when bank depositors do not issue all their money back when a bank fails) are now a template that will be used in future bank crises. In my book, I reveal the number one foolproof way to squash any attempt by ANY bank to steal YOUR hard-earned money. Anyone can do this. (Page 137) A step-by-step walkthrough of one of my most powerful CIA prediction techniques. Not only can this powerful technique be applied to issues of national security, it can also be used to predict currency fluctuations, interest rates, and the stock market. EVERYONE should know how to do this, including investors and portfolio managers, to get an edge on future market movements. (Page 132) You’ll find all this and more in The New Case for Gold. And for less than eight bucks. Incredible value, right? Too good, according to Agora Financial Australia’s financial controller. As I said, it’s going to cost my publisher in Australia double that to ship each 182-page book. But the financial controller has just signed off on $61,705 for the first print-run alone. That’s not all though… I’ve also given my new publisher, Agora Financial Australia, permission to give you 30 days of ‘bonus access’ to my Strategic Intelligence newsletter archive. There you’ll find all my latest predictions and analysis, which are usually only circulated among paid subscribers. STRICTLY LIMITED 2017 PRINT-RUN!
