Why I Own GOLD And Why It Matters More Than Ever | Ben Mumme
About this episode
Ben Mumme discusses the importance of owning gold in the current economic climate marked by currency devaluation and increasing sovereign debt.
Gold isn't getting richer. Currencies are getting weaker. Ben Mumme explains why he owns gold and why many serious investors see it as one of the few assets capable of protecting purchasing power in a world drowning in sovereign debt and relentless money printing. Since the early 2000s, gold has surged dramatically, but the deeper story is monetary. As governments expand the money supply and debt levels spiral higher, the value of paper currencies quietly erodes. Ben also explores why central banks continue accumulating gold, why many investors still view it as real money, and why it remains one of the few assets with no counterparty risk. Influential investors like Ray Dalio, Frank Giustra, Rick Rule, Ross Beaty, and Eric Sprott continue to emphasize gold's role as financial insurance in an uncertain monetary system. If the current trajectory of debt and monetary expansion continues, today's gold price may eventually look shockingly cheap in hindsight. _ Sign up for my free weekly newsletter . _ WHERE TO FIND BEN MUMME 馃憞 Twitter Medium YouTube Instagram Website LinkedIn
