Why should you read Adam Starchild's important new book?
Several powerful reasons exist today that completely change the old way of thinking about gold (and other precious metals).

1. The crisis in Asia clearly shows the ultimate outcome of credit expansion. The U.S. economy lives and breathes on low interest rates, easy credit and loose money. Mortgage refinancing, consumer credit, margin debt, leveraging, and credit cards heat up the economy and encourage speculation and overconsumption.

2. Shocking structural changes in the foundations of the U.S. economy have enhanced the need for gold. Low savings, low investment, excessive leverage, disastrous liquidity trends, trade deficits, high speculation and astronomical public and private debt are a vew of these revolutionary changes.

3. Mainstream financial advisors and economists scorn gold to the extent it has become the premier contrary opinion investment of all time. In the debt- and deficit-ridden countries such as the U.S. and Canada, many people commit their funds exclusively to stocks and neglect hedging with gold.

Money Talks, Gold Shouts, Platinum Roars
You couldn't kill the demand for platinum with a shotgun or an atomic bomb.

In fact, without platinum you couldn't even make a gun or an A-bomb! They are just two of that one-fifth of all hard good requiring platinum, either as a component or in the manufacturing process.

Even ignoring all such goods, we would still run shy of platinum very soon simply because of fuel cells and catalytic converters (ten million a year of them). Skyrocketing demand is a lock. It's now woven into the fabric of our civilization.

But how to cash in? In this book, Adam Starchild shows how. If you like easy decisions, this book will warm your heart.

Please do yourself a favor, don't buy this book!
Upon closer inspection, I believe the reviews were rigged.
The feedbacks look awful suspicious. Note that no positive reviews have have an identity, it just says "a reader". Secondly, the reviews have almost nothing to do with the contents of the book itself. The reviews are most likely an "advertising" ploy. Third, is the unusually high, "so and so found the review helpful" ratings. If you see my other review, you can see it is a bit more objective than the other reviews. I should have given a lower rating. I can't believe I was tricked into buying this book!
