All right, joining us now is Tony Erderman of Wise Wolf Gold, and of course you can get there by going to davidknight.gold.
I'll let Tony know that you came through us.
It's been a really amazing week.
Yet again, every week we say this, but every week there's been a lot of movement back and forth in the metals as well as in the economy.
What's on your mind, Tony, as you look at the developments this week?
Well, the IMF just put out a statement that the world economic order is going through a reset, so newsflash there.
The IMF is broadcasting that.
The monetary system is being reset, for sure.
There's open questions.
The way I look at the news, I'm sure, is similar to the way you look at the news.
It's not really the headlines.
It's the underlying language and meaning behind them.
I noticed that there's two...
Opposing things here in these headlines with gold.
You have Chinese investors.
It's like a record-breaking first quarter.
They were like 23 tons of gold for Chinese investors.
But the Chinese government just sold off a million ounces.
It's like almost a record high for sell-offs.
It's profit-taking.
But I hang a question mark over it, David, because we have some trade tensions, whatever that is, I'm putting this in quotes, trade negotiation tensions that have been laxed.
I'm wondering if there's some sort of, again, I have no confirmation of this, but I'm asking, I'm wondering if there is some sort of quid pro quo to take the accelerator off this gold price, and the Chinese are helping with that.
The gold price is continuing to show the weakness of the dollar, which is catastrophic for the U.S. system.
I wonder if there's some sort of...
Hey, you know, take some profit.
You're up.
You know, gosh, started, you know, buying gold in the early part of the 21st century in massive quantities for the Chinese.
I wonder if they're taking a little profit and helping the U.S. dollar out.
Just an open question.
Yeah, they don't want to have a weak dollar because that makes our exports cheaper and everything.
You know, Trump is trying to weaken the dollars we've talked about before.
You know, not only is he raising taxes with terrorists, but he's also weakening the dollar.
And that's the game that they've always played as part of the Chinese price is currency manipulation.
So they're well aware of how to do it.
And they're well aware that they can do it to the U.S. dollar as well.
Scott Besant talked about how he wants a new Bretton Woods and everything.
And so, absolutely, the restructure of the financial system is on the table.
And you have to look at this and wonder, how is it going to roll out?
And I mentioned earlier that Tether is talking about how they are already the largest exporter.
of U.S. dollars.
And I think we've talked about this where we said, well, one way that they can bypass...
Obstruction from foreign governments that don't want to buy into the dollar is to go directly to the individuals in those countries.
And now they're saying that openly, that that is their intention to do that with a stablecoin.
They will set up a stablecoin that transacts in U.S. dollars.
And, of course, the stablecoin will also buy...
The Treasury bills that the foreign governments don't want anymore.
So it'd be a way of selling the American debt to foreign individuals if you can't get the foreign countries to buy it.
Well, color me skeptical on that working out very well for anyone.
You know, a public-private partnership in some way, using the dollar in a stablecoin setting, that may sound good on paper.
I don't know how that would translate.
I think there's too many moving parts for it to work on an international scale.
And I don't think it was designed for that.
You're talking about government to private business or assumed private entity.
So there's all sorts of pitfalls there.
And it may be...
I keep looking at it the same way you do, David.
It's like the stable coins are an outlier.
In the crypto world, and it's seemingly more and more adoption by governments, at least working with them or looking for regulation or how to implement them in conjunction with their own currencies.
And that's really alarming, I think.
You look at something like the U.S. dollar, where the backdoor for central bank digital currency, as you and I have, I think we're right about this, that it...
That is the platform.
That's the path, is to use these seemingly innocuous coins that are in the crypto sphere to usher in a central bank digital currency.
And you can just say, hands off, we're not.
This isn't coming from the Fed, necessarily.
It's just mirroring the currency of the Federal Reserve.
There's too many red flags for me to even...
I don't see it working out well for investors, and I don't see it working out well for those who use the U.S. dollar.
I keep asking why.
Why would they do it?
Oh, yeah.
Absolutely.
I think that it is their stealth way of doing a CBDC, and I said that from the beginning.
Now we've got a Treasury report that just came out, and the Treasury report says that they think that stablecoins are on track for a $2 trillion market cap.
By 2028.
And they say that right now it's about 230.
Okay, so you're looking at a factor of 10. Tenfold in just the next three years.
And this is the U.S. Treasury.
And they're talking about this in terms of how they're going to get rid of their Treasury bills.
But at the same time, Cointelegraph is talking about the fact, well, you know, we've been a big exporter of dollars with these stablecoins, but now we're looking at using them domestically.
And they said, and we're talking to law enforcement about that.
I mean, everything is lining up there, Tony, that this is the public-private partnership.
For a digital currency, they just won't call it a central bank digital currency, but it'll be the same function except that they'll get rich off of it.
You know, the Trump people and Lutnik and all the rest of these people get rich off of it, but it is shaping up to have the same functions.
That was a big red flag when Joe Biden was saying, hey, we're going to have a central bank digital currency.
And so, first of all, let's figure out how we're going to redesign the financial system.
How we're going to write the code.
And then we need to talk to law enforcement about this and how they're going to force it.
And so now you've got Cointelegraph they're talking about.
So now they're having talks as to how they are going to, it says, collaborate with law enforcement in terms of putting out Tether.
And this is the company that Lutnik had so much involvement in.
He supposedly has now stepped away from it and divested himself.
But yeah, right.
You know, whatever.
I mean, to me, it's just a rapid escalation toward a CBDC is what it looks like.
I concur with that.
And one of the things that would make me even more skeptical is, like you just mentioned, the market cap.
Let's think about that.
You're talking about an eventual two plus trillion dollar market cap in a currency that inherently has no value.
So Bitcoin's market cap goes up when the price goes up because there is a finite amount of Bitcoin.
So even if you don't like Bitcoin, you have to recognize that if a Bitcoin sells for a higher price, the market cap continues to rise.
So it's about, I think it's 1.7%.
Trillion right now for Bitcoin.
I could be wrong.
It's right around there.
And silver is probably like $1.5 trillion, but silver price and market cap fluctuate.
So what would entail a 10x market cap increase for a stablecoin that inherently has no value, really, but was it just the increase in its own money supply?
Is that what it is?
Or it's holdings of...
I think it's holding a treasuries, yeah.
I mean, they create these treasuries, they print the dollars, it's all fiat, so they just roll this in.
It's just another kind of derivative, really, on the U.S. dollar is what they're talking about.
But, I mean, it looks like they're really seriously moving towards this when you've got Treasury reports talking about that.
It's amazing.
It's not stable if it's tied to the dollar and Treasury bills.
It's not stable.
It's not a coin, of course, either.
None of these things are coins.
I think this is how Bugsy Siegel sold Las Vegas.
They just kept selling the stock and ways to invest and oversold it.
That's nothing new under the sun.
That sounds to me.
I've heard this movie.
I've seen this movie before.
I've heard this story.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
So we've seen gold with some profit-taking and that type of stuff, massive stuff, as you point out, in China.
So it was up over 35, right, was the high that it got to.
Now it's down, what, around in the 3,300 somewhere?
As of right now, it's 3,226.
They'll be in Luciferian Bankster notes per Troyance.
And I think that is mostly profit-taking.
Something's stalled out, but I don't see us trending.
I don't see, like, a big sell-off anytime soon, David.
I think there's some profit-taking.
The World Gold Council pointed out, even this first, investors, not just governments, but investors, are running towards physical gold.
And, of course, big chunks of that are...
They think they're buying physical gold.
They're buying ETFs.
I noticed another factor there that was interesting is that jewelry demand was down in the first quarter.
It's just a lot of people buying physical bullion and investors, but the price of gold is going up so high that jewelry is being put on the back burner for purchases.
People may be waiting for prices to come down or sell-offs or something like that.
I don't think they're going to see a Once we've crossed 3,000, David, I think that we're going to be there for a while, and then it's upwards and onwards at that.
I'm seeing an increase in urban gold mining.
You hit these prices, people start looking around for scrap gold.
It's worth selling, especially if you paid for a big price for some jewelry at one time, maybe 10, 15 years ago.
You're certainly going to get your money back at this point.
Well, I think a lot of this, again, is hinging off of Trump's actions.
And it's so unstable that, of course, it's created some instability even for something like gold.
But I think fundamentals are, nothing has changed.
It's just like what we said in anticipation after Trump was elected.
Everybody was like, oh, that's it.
It's over for gold.
Everybody's going to move towards Bitcoin now.
I don't think that's going to be the case.
But what we're seeing is, as he's starting to retrench from some of this stuff, It's starting to have an effect on some of the markets, but I think that people are going to realize that he's not really going to retrench from that much of it, and when the consequences of what are going to be happening with essentially sanctions now being enacted on the United States from China,
That is yet to be felt, as I was talking about the other day.
It takes 30 to 45 days for the goods that would be in transit from China to get here.
So we haven't felt the effect of that yet.
And we're going to be feeling that not too far in the future once that starts.
I think that's going to be the case with the economy in general.
Fundamentals have not really changed, no matter how many times Trump changes the tariffs, as long as he keeps them on.
It's still going to be playing havoc on the supply chain and on the economy, and I think it's going to be reflected in that.
Yeah, the trajectory for de-dollarization is all still there, David, and you're right.
I mean, the underlying causations for a weaker dollar and the decline of the dollar are all right there, and those are increasing.
The debt is increasing.
The liabilities are increasing.
And then the usage of the dollar is decreasing at the same time.
So those are not good outliers and signposts on the road ahead for the United States monetary system and for the dollar itself.
The world is moving away from that, in my opinion.
Gold has already supplanted the dollar, and I've said that before.
I already think it's the world's reserve currency.
This time, it's just using, it's in name only, using other currency for cross-border payments, but not holding them.
You know, I will remind, you know, your audience, as I remind mine, is that the number two held asset by central banks is gold.
It used to be the euro and gold was way down.
It was, you know, other currencies.
Since 2021 in Basel, Switzerland, when Basel III, when they redid the Bank of International Settlements to put gold as a Tier 1 asset instead of a Tier 3 asset, the central bank started hoarding gold, and that's happening.
And again, look at the dumping of treasuries by the Chinese.
They used to be the biggest buyer.
Now they're the biggest seller.
These trends continue.
They're going to continue, and you can have, like, we can come week to week, and this week we're not talking about an all-time high in gold, which is unusual for us, because going into the election, after Inauguration Day, this trend started to reverse,
where crypto went down, and like you mentioned, gold and silver went back up.
But we're still at $3,200-plus an ounce for gold, which, you know, if you told us a couple of years ago what that price would be, that'd be pretty shocking.
But now it's just normal, and I think you're going to continue to see.
There's going to be profit-taking and other things, but the fundamentals, the underlying issues, what's wrong with our currency, whether they build a lifeboat in some stablecoin and dress it up and try to repackage it, it doesn't really matter.
You know, the trend is moving away from the dollar worldwide.
We're going to see these prices are going to increase in gold.
I don't know what the number is going to be, but it'll be higher.
I agree.
Yeah, when you look at this report that came out from the Treasury, I mean, they said in their report that Stablecoin promises to create, quote, a new financial market infrastructure.
I mean, they're pretty much saying that they're putting all their eggs into that basket.
They said Stablecoin...
Collateral reportedly consists of either treasury bills or treasury-backed repurchase agreements.
The repo market.
I mean, they can't even throw their repo stuff in there, Tony, because that's how they get to $2 trillion.
Remember when that was happening?
We were talking about that in the fall of 2019.
You know, they're throwing in massive amounts of fiat currency equivalent to the gross domestic product of Switzerland, you know, in just one transaction.
And, you know, so now they can do that.
Into the stablecoin thing.
They can throw in the T-bills.
They can throw in the repo stuff.
It's all their garbage going into this derivative, right?
They call it stablecoin.
And it'll be interesting to see what happens.
See, that's the thing.
I look at this stuff, and like I said, privacy is priceless.
And we know that they're going to restructure the financial system, and we know we don't want to be a part of it.
They're working with law enforcement now to track everything that people get.
They're going to have new functions of smart contracts and other things like that that are going to be the way that they can apply these central bank digital currency operations to you to stop you from buying something, to monitor everything that you're buying,
and on and on.
So all those functions of CBDC are there.
The lack of privacy and financial transactions.
And to me, that is the key of trying to get outside of all that stuff.
Well, I agree.
And, you know, you look at the economic conditions, too, are rife for them to introduce this.
This is a crisis, and, you know, the crisis needs a solution.
They bring that in as a problem-reaction solution.
And I think that's what they're waiting for.
And maybe, perhaps, you could use the term controlled demolition.
Kind of a Building 7 scenario for the U.S. currency.
It's not good.
You mentioned earlier this week on the show I caught a segment where you were talking about how it actually would be better.
I mean, we'd be better off in the long term if we weren't the world's reserve currency because the leverage that the ruling class has over us with this to get us into wars, to expand the welfare state and the police state and the surveillance state,
It's seemingly, and pay people off and bribe people and all the rest, it's pure evil.
And they've gotten away with it for so long.
But if you had to be fiscally responsible, and even remotely fiscally responsible, a lot of those things are curtailed.
And I agree with that.
There would be some short-term pain.
But long-term, we'd be better off because we're in this fix because of seemingly unlimited currency creation.
But they can't go on forever.
I mean, the mathematics, I think we're just reaching a tipping point.
And, you know, if you're in my business, it's like all the time and the sky is falling.
So one day it is.
I mean, if you're a gold bug, you start looking at these.
How does the U.S. economy survive this?
It's like 08 or 09. How do we survive TARP and bailing out banks?
Well, we survived it for a while, but those wounds, those things are still there.
There's still hundreds of zombie corporations and things that are left over from that.
We never recovered from 08, 09. It's just the expansion of the money supply and the debt are ever-increasing.
Like you mentioned, this is going back to 2019, last quarter, the repo markets that we talked about.
Six trillion in the overnights that were just out of thin air.
That's leading up to COVID-1984.
Remember that?
It burned into my mind because I was watching it very closely.
We're in a different world now, though.
I mean, the debt has exploded, and now the geopolitical tensions are there, trade issues, all that.
You're right, though.
At the end of the day, that's economic.
But at the end of the day, why do we...
To talk about gold and silver and crypto every week here on the show is to talk about privacy and how you can be outside of the system.
Fortunately for us in this country, we still have the ability to take fake fiat dollars and turn them into actual real money.
You can hold that in your hand and you can become your own bank.
You can be your own...
You can be in charge of your own financial destiny, especially in charge of your own privacy as well.
Yeah, it's always their geopolitics and what they want to do even domestically is always tied together with all of this, the financial aspects of it, of course.
And it's going to be a real painful situation, but we would be better off without our government being able to just print up dollars out of thin air and never have to be accountable for it.
We're the only country that can do that.
And that's been our superpower.
And because we've used that as a superpower and we've used it as a weapon, now we've got a lot of enemies who are looking at how they can take down our financial system.
And they're all working to do that.
And it shouldn't be that hard, quite frankly.
And then you've got people inside the Trump administration, like Eric Trump, who went to Dubai, and he's speaking to all of these crypto conferences and everything.
What he's telling people, he says there's not going to be any private banks in 10 years.
Sounds just like Joe Biden and the CBDC stuff.
But it's going to be their stablecoin, I think, that's going to be out there to do that.
It's the same outcome.
Yeah, exactly.
It's a different team.
Same outcome, same goals.
It's a freedom city versus a 15-minute city.
Same thing.
That's what we're up against.
It's interesting because I do, at least until I change my mind, I'm still an advocate of Bitcoin.
My company deals in Bitcoin and we have a way to go back and forth out of metals and vice versa.
So I'm still watching that really closely, and I think it's a good technology.
But I like diversification.
But most importantly, I like decentralization.
And the more centralized these things become, or the proposals for centralization of tokens, the more I will oppose it.
I don't see the need for it.
I mean, there's so many cryptocurrencies.
And see, that's the thing that Eric Trump is trying to sell that.
He says, yeah, we've got to get into DeFi.
Well, that's not decentralized.
It's just changing who controls it.
Really.
You know, because what he's talking about is with his, you know, their scheme of the world liberty thing, you know, which is you've got a lot of these closely held, centrally controlled currencies that they want to put in charge of this stuff.
And then they want to call it decentralized finance.
And, you know, so he's talking about something that's different from Bitcoin or some of these other cryptocurrencies.
They're talking about, when he talked about his Bitcoin reserve, Trump was mentioning some pretty small, closely held, transactional cryptocurrencies.
Very centralized control.
So we're not talking about, to call it DeFi, is a lie.
It's a misnomer.
It's just going to be that you're going to have a different group of people controlling it centrally.
Well, right.
And with the Bitcoin network itself, it's never meant to have, it never was meant to be what's going on right now with these ETFs.
And I noticed that even with the dips and the price stagnation, because $108,000 for Bitcoin on Inauguration Day and has dipped since then and has went down, I think, into the high 70s and then we stayed in the mid-80s for a while.
Michael Saylor continues to accumulate, and BlackRock continues to accumulate.
Larry Fink from BlackRock.
If you're in the Bitcoin space, people talk about Larry Fink like he's helping you, and I don't see it that way.
I think he's telling you something.
He's always telegraphed very weird things to me, especially when BlackRock starts buying up all the residential housing, and at the same time, Larry Fink would say stuff like, We in the financial sector can alter behavior, like financial policies can alter social behavior.
And I think that's a clear message from him.
But he said something about Bitcoin that I didn't think they got the wrong kind of attention.
He said that at the World Economic Forum, he said that Bitcoin would hit 700,000.
He said this a couple of different times.
And if you do the calculations, that means that...
Basically, Bitcoin would be on parity with the market cap of gold.
And I'm not exactly sure how that plays out or what that means for somebody like BlackRock or the...
I mean, I look at all the different companies that hold these things now, but it's accumulation.
And so there's a disproportional holding of Bitcoin by these large institutions.
To me, it's great short-term for the price.
But I'm not sure that the price is going to be worth it.
There's going to be something that they do with Bitcoin.
I'm floating this out there.
I'm long-term for Bitcoin, but I think there's something they're going to do.
When you're paying attention to the language of somebody like Larry Fink, that is the hijacking of a coin, in my opinion, because he's telling you.
It's kind of like Babe Ruth pointing towards the...
Not even like that, because Ruth had to actually hit the ball.
I think there's something.
There's something with that message.
When he says things like that, I pay attention.
For me, it's not about the price.
It's about what are your intentions for that price.
There's something else going on with the stablecoins and the move towards centralization.
That's what we have to oppose.
Things that should always be decentralized in order to have any sort of sovereignty.
And the whole purpose and philosophy behind Bitcoin was to be decentralized.
So when you start hearing them talk about more centralization, be skeptical.
Yeah, when they label things as DeFi or just as crypto or whatever, you know, you have to be discerning to understand the difference between these different things.
Let's talk a little bit about gold and silver.
And, you know, you have some that see silver coming up.
Look at this unbelievable ratio that's there.
But the World Bank now says, you know, they're moving away from their position that silver is going to rise up.
They're saying, no, it looks like it's...
Going to be gold, and you've got on Kitco and other places, you've got multiple people out there, some of them saying, well, I think if we keep going down the road the way the economy is going, I think you're going to see $4,000 gold pretty soon.
You've got Clem Chambers saying a supply chain shock could send gold to $10,000 an ounce.
What do you think is going to happen with a supply chain shock that is on its way?
It's just a couple weeks offshore.
Well, I think it will because it'll have a...
An immediate impact on the economy and outlook.
And you know how everything works.
It's mostly psychological.
Sometimes it's like the tariffs.
They weren't even implemented.
And you see these weird swings that are back and forth.
And, oh, Trump's going to put this on.
He's going to put it at 50%.
Now it's 25%.
And the market whipsaw.
So it's mostly psychological.
It's not even based off of reality.
I think that gold will...
And I happen to...
I happen to agree with that assessment from the World Bank, at least in the short term, because I think gold, because governments use it as a monetary metal, and I read you a little bit of that article about investors breaking records with gold this last quarter.
So I think short term, gold is going to be way up, and it's the fear, uncertainty, and doubt.
It's where people go.
Silver is also a monetary metal, but the underlying manipulation and uses by things such as the military-industrial complex and the accumulation by multinationals, I think is pretty apparent.
I'm looking at the price right now, David, on the screen in real time.
It's almost exactly 100.
It's almost exactly 100 ounces of silver to make an ounce of gold.
That ratio historically...
If you know anything about the history of metals, it's so bizarre.
It's so disproportional.
And it won't last forever.
If you're long on investment, I can't think of a better way to house your fiat currency right now than silver.
If you're long on the market.
Because regardless, the metrics of silver.
It's 200 plus million ounces.
Million ounces of deficits a year.
That means that everything that was mined brought in, and by the way, most of the mining of silver is not because somebody went out and started a silver mine.
Those are minorities.
What's happening is it's an ancillary mine product.
People are going to look for copper, they're going to look for zinc, they're looking for gold, and they'll get silver and also mine that.
So it's not even profitable for a lot of these companies that do specialize in getting silver out of the ground.
Geologically, by the way, I'll just add this.
Geologically, it's estimated that in the ground, it's 17 to 1. So just geologically, it's 17 to 1. I think that's why in the U.S. here, we had about 16 to 1 set by the Founding Fathers in our monetary system.
And generally, it's been 10 to 20 to 1. So name me another commodity whose all-time high was 45 years ago.
You can't.
I don't know of one.
Silver is definitely long-term for somebody who, if you're looking, and again, it's long-term because a lot of people have been saying this for years that silver is going to explode.
I'm not telling you that.
I'm not telling you silver is going to explode.
I think those are irresponsible things to do because you don't know what the price is going to be.
I just know that based on what's happening to the dollar, And again, it's not hit its all-time high for 45 years.
Somebody told me, well, it hit $50 in 2010.
I'm like, I know, but its all-time high was $52.50, and that was 1980.
I'm well aware of 2010.
And 2010, once that happens again, it's not coming back down.
So I think that we're looking at a breakout sooner than later, but it's long-term.
It's going to be short-term gold, long-term silver, in my opinion.
Yeah, and when we talk short-term, you know, I think everybody was so concerned about what's going to happen to the tariffs and the volatility of what's going to happen to the economy.
I think once this supply chain stuff starts, the reality of these tariffs starts sinking in, I think that's going to be, I think it's going to affect gold, just like it did with the talk about what was going to happen with gold.
I think that I don't, you know, I have no idea.
put a dollar figure on it like that guy said ten thousand dollars an ounce but i think it's going to be positive for gold once people start seeing the damage uh for the supply chain now the other side of that i guess is going to be when it goes into recession what's typically happened in a recession um do people try to
sell off their gold take a profit off of that because they've got to have the money Yeah.
That's usually what happens.
Extreme market downturns, that there will be a liquidation.
Because a lot of times, big investors, too, will hold gold as a way to hedge against inflation.
Because gold is so liquid, when they see a market downturn, and the advice of the Rothschilds was to buy when there's blood in the streets.
And if there's a market downturn, there's a recession and prices are down, and people are liquidating their assets, a lot of people will get out of gold and into...
Stocks or businesses and buy on the cheap.
But what happens is because of the monetary system damage, a lot of people start going back into gold.
So there's a temporary, usually a temporary sell-off, at least that's what I've seen historically, a temporary sell-off, and then it starts to gain against the system.
So gold starts showing its...
It's housing of value as a safe haven.
But it just basically recedes and then it comes back.
That's what I've seen.
I don't know, though, David.
We're in a weird time.
I don't think history may show us the way here.
Because of the massive de-dollarization, I just keep using that term because it's really striking to me that the economic system worldwide...
Even the IMF.
It's resetting.
Of course it is.
We've been saying this for years.
It's resetting.
And I think the demand for gold by governments is unprecedented, by private institutions is unprecedented.
We're seeing a real shift globally here.
So it's hard to say exactly what would happen, but that's what's happened historically.
Yeah.
Well, you know, when I look at it, I think it's only one stable coin.
That's going to be gold and silver or whatever, right?
But especially gold.
If you want to talk about a stable coin, that's it.
Except no substitutes, no frauds.
They're going to throw all their garbage T-bills and repo stuff into...
That's not going to be a stable thing.
I don't know.
It's crazy.
But they're going to use all their powers to try to make that operate.
And I think we're going to be seeing...
An upcoming situation, not just trade wars, but also currency wars and all the rest of this financial stuff.
Hopefully we don't get into a real shooting war, because that's how the shooting wars began, with that kind of stuff.
Tell us a little bit about what's going on at Wise Wolf.
Well, the weekly mission is to find supply.
Strange times.
I noticed that we've got a lull in the silver market right now.
You probably...
You know, if you're not in my business, you don't see it because we provide everybody with the metals.
I'm starting to see some shortages in one-ounce silver rounds and generic things like that, at least for variety.
So that's piqued my interest.
And it's probably because of the prices.
You know, things that we talked about with silver, I think there's probably some...
Somebody's buying, right?
So it's accumulation by larger entities, most likely.
So I'm just keeping that supply chain open.
That's my...
That's been my mission.
We've got the Texas physical location, Missouri physical location.
I'm going to be heading back up to Branson today.
So I'll be up there checking on my shop and doing some inventory.
We've got some great specials and things going on.
We've been talking to people, especially with the market kind of pulling back.
You know, we've perfected the art of getting people out of paper IRAs and 401Ks and other things.
So if you're interested in that, we're Johnny on the spot.
And I got a great team for that.
Really easy to put you in physical metals.
And I'm making some more improvements to the website and experiences there for one-time purchases.
You know, if you want a gram of gold and you go to davidknight.gold, Maybe you just want a gram.
I've got a free shipping, no credit card fees.
I still have to pay the fees, but I just don't make you pay them.
So if you go to davidknight.gold and you hit the joint Wolfpack tab, there's a way to get just a gram of gold, and it's free shipping.
But please buy two.
That way I make something.
I put those on there.
It's like, well, I think if they buy two, I make something.
How much is that in terms of ounce?
What is a gram in terms of ounce?
There's 31.1 grams.
In a Troy Amps.
Oh, okay.
So, you know, divide that.
That's about a 30th.
So we're talking about something in the neighborhood of 100 bucks per gram or something like that.
Yeah.
So you pay some premium.
By the way, I make it, I set it up, and I'm always on the hunt for, and by the way, those are another thing.
That we're getting harder and harder to find.
So I'm going to have to keep sourcing them somewhere, but those sheets of getting the 100, harder to find across the board.
Really?
Wow.
Yeah, so I made that easy to get small amounts of gold bullion, or you can just sign up for one of the Wolfpacks above the $250.
That's what I like about Wolfpack.
You get these things like the goldbacks or the little...
Chicklet things that are broken off.
People think that gold is so expensive, it's going to be a really expensive buy, but you can buy it in very small quantities.
There's a lot of things that are out there.
Of course, like you said, I guess they're getting harder and harder to find those things.
But people are packaging it so that it isn't necessarily a gold bar that's worth a million dollars.
Only corrupt senators can afford those types of things.
You can get the little tiny Graham chiclet things.
That's what I like with the Wolfpack.
I've seen some of those things because I didn't even know they existed until we got it through the Wolfpack thing.
Well, that's the key.
If you accumulate and you buy fractional, you do pay a premium up front.
But if you'll just take my advice and don't sell it.
If you're going to sell it, sell it to me.
But if you're going to hold, hold for the long term.
And you'll see those premiums will start to dissipate with the rising price of the metal.
But you've got to hold it long term and you'll have a shareable, something to...
To use peer-to-peer to pay for things outside of a corrupt system, outside of the stablecoin dystopia.
And of course, you know, we're talking about long-term and talking about savings.
They don't pay any interest anymore in the banks.
I mean, it's foolish to put your money in the banks where they're going to pay you like 0.1% or some ridiculous thing like that.
It used to be that the banks would pay you something that's pretty close to what they would charge in a home loan.
You know, your home loan would be 5.5%.
They'd pay you 4% or 4.5% at the bank on your savings account.
Now they don't pay you anything.
And you're going to be seeing that eaten up with inflation.
So if you're going to be doing any kind of a savings program, metal is for a long term.
Metal really is the way to go.
It truly is.
But it's the privacy thing that I think is absolutely priceless.
Well, Tony, thank you so much.
And you've got a program coming up today?
Right after this one?
I do.
Arterburn Radio Transmission.
We'll talk parapolitics, precious metals, and whatever else is on my mind for an hour at 11 Central Time, 12 Eastern, on Rumble, Americum Plug Channel, and my...
My ex at Tony Arterburn.
So go find us there.
That's great.
Thank you so much, Tony.
I really do appreciate it.
Thank you for setting up davidknight.gold to take people to Wise Wolf.
Love the programs that you've got there.
I've known Tony for a long time, done a lot of business with him, and it has always been a good experience, and I really trust Tony.
Thank you.
We'll talk to you soon.
All right, folks, we're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
They created common paths to track and control us.
Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
And the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation.
If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers.
