The Wisdom of Gold

By Rich Vermillion, August 24, 2008 1:42 am

A prudent man sees the evil and hides himself, but the simple pass on and are punished [with suffering]. (Proverbs 22:3, AMP)

 

Have you noticed the news lately? Unravelling debt bubbles, currency devaluations, stock market fluctuations, and sudden shortages of real money… that is, gold and silver coinage. (As I have been explaining in my post series, Economics, Gold, and the Word of the Lord, there is actually a prophetic and End-Time significance to all that is happening today in global financial systems and markets.)

Double-digit real inflationary pressures are eating up people’s savings—and their paychecks—faster than many can find new sources of income to bridge the ever widening gap. However, the Bible indicates plainly in the passage above that it is wise and prudent to see the proverbial “writing on the wall” and take refuge in a safe haven somewhere before it is too late. But where? (The Bear-Stearns buyout fisaco alone should prove to most people that stock portfolios and mutual funds are a losing proposition.)

My recommendation is where the Bible and 5,000 years of monetary history points: gold and silver, the monetary metals of all history. In fact, way back in the story of creation itself the Scriptures indicated to us that a good place to “hide” from developing economic dangers can be found in the “Land of Haviliah”:

…the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. And the gold of that land is good. (Genesis 2:11-12, NKJV)

Gold in particular has held its value since ancient times. An ounce of gold today will purchase about the same amount of goods and services that an ounce of gold did in the days when Jesus walked the earth. Thus, gold is a true storehouse of value that can be counted on to hold its purchasing power—even when the “paper” currencies of the world system (which are actually notes of debt, and not true money in the technical sense) are depreciating daily.

Even best-selling financial author Robert Kiyosaki of “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” fame says “The reason gold and silver is so important is that gold and silver is God’s money. It is money made by God….Cash [i.e. paper currency not backed by gold or silver] is trash.” (See my post entitled, Robert Kiyosaki on Gold, Currencies, and the US Economic Collapse for more about what Robert says.)

However, you need to obtain gold in tangible form that can be available to you when you need it. It needs to be available in a form that is transferable to others in an acceptable manner. Thus you should ideally buy gold in the form of coinage, as has been done for thousands of years, and then keep it in a safe place until you want to convert it to cash (i.e. sell it for its appreciated value) or need it for purchasing things should an economic crisis arise. You also need to buy LOTS of it to do you any good. Thus, an additional income stream would help you tremendously to accumulate gold bullion coins more rapidly than your current income sources might presently allow.

Very importantly, any avenue for obtaining gold coinage must also have those coins IN STOCK. (You can’t very well use something you cannot get.) Better yet, that source needs to have access to an INTERNATIONAL source of gold bullion coins from reputable private mints—and NOT rely solely on the U.S. Mint or any government mint to supply the coins, as they have a habit of rationing supplied during peak demand times (like those being experienced now).

I recommend, therefore, Joseph Wealth Systems (JWS) as a very suitable and timely source. I have done the research, and invested myself in gold coins through JWS. Therefore I can recommend Joseph Wealth Systems to you because of my own personal (and highly satisfactory) experience.
