I also hear rumours of war, which can change everyone's opinion of oil overnight. I am waiting to see what happens on the heels of O taking office, and ready to deploy cash as needed.

Could come up again as fast as it came down. And all this w/o any fundamentals-- or me with any real understanding of anything!]]>

It is something man has to find, that even a single man with a pickaxe and a pan can still find. The California Motherlode is coming alive again, with men completely down on their luck laying it all down to buy a small piece of ground, an old staked out, but not played out, mine.

Gold has properties that draw us to it that we aren't even conciously aware of. In alternative medicine, gold and silver are deeply healing, have an energy.

Colorful designs on paper just don't have juice.]]>

I see already, the need to receive deeper correction --ourselves. We fiddled while Rome burned. Had bread and circuses.

Fiat $ selfishness always dies hard. Generosity of spirit is our saving grace. Together we can do what alone we cannot.]]>

Will We See Inflation or Deflation? http://seekingalpha.com/article/109150-will-we-see-inflation-or-deflation?source=feed#comment-343671 343671 Thu, 01 Jan 2009 16:50:02 -0500 The Problem with GLD and SLV ETFs http://seekingalpha.com/article/110609-the-problem-with-gld-and-slv-etfs?source=feed#comment-340959 340959 Mon, 29 Dec 2008 20:24:48 -0500 Peter Schiff: Outlook for the Gold Market http://seekingalpha.com/article/111857-peter-schiff-outlook-for-the-gold-market?source=feed#comment-336940 336940
One must realize that "the fixers" do not intend to "fix" anything. For world leaders -- not to call names or anything, but let's call a spade a spade -- we have a bunch of ego-driven, selfish-beyond-words, deeply-twisted, inhumane and elitist, power-mongering devil-worshippers at the helm.

These power-brokers just want what they want: self-interest, power, and control. The base, dark-side of humanity, misled and mistaken. Surely won't make 'em happy, no matter what they can buy, steal, kill, or control.

The wheat and tares have grown up side by side. Just so there is no confusion about things.... This ain't just about the world economy. It's about good and evil, and overcoming the world, as our Lord did.

The good news is that every extreme has its equally powerful opposite, and good is far, far more powerful than evil, ultimately.

Not to be too flip about what we have to go through, but God and good -- and even gold -- do win in the end. Play for the winning team!]]>

Oil, like gold, retains value. Volatile, controlled, but valuable.

It will do the exact opposite of what the dollar does when it tanks. I am all in with USO.]]>

The Manipulation of Gold Prices http://seekingalpha.com/article/109210-the-manipulation-of-gold-prices?source=feed#comment-323327 323327
The actual value of the dollar, which has been deflating all along, right under our eyes, was about 2 red cents. It is substantially less than zero now, and with inflation will be so far below zero it can't even be seen. But the "belief" in dollars, the need to pay fixed rate mortgages with it, still stands. Those debts will be paid off more easily in time with inflation.

There is also a certain amount of concurrent deflation and inflation. Purpose being to confuse. Deflation, I believe, is to corner the real estate market. Marxism is also about taking the land. When this is accomplished, then the purpose is to inflate gold, and buy more land. Think about it, the only things of real value are gold, land, water, food, & freedom / or power, whichever you desire. And of course, your Maker. You can gain the whole world and lose your soul. I believe this is an epic power struggle that has already been won by the good, but also an opportunity to value freedom and personal choice, somehow holding faith and love as the greatest powers. True things have value, and the rest is smoke and mirrors mirage and fear. Remember your own power is within you, made in God's image. The opposite of mirage.

May we all have spiritual discernment and peace to hear it. This battle is not really in the physical, only mirrored here. It is about power, and ideologies, and faith. It is more real in the unseen than the visual arena. To do real battle, go quiet and seek guidance from real, not fake power.

I know this all sounds a bit odd, but answers have come this way that saved my life. Spirit knows what the mind cannot fully understand. Go where knowledge can't.

Stay in this moment, calm, centered. Act from there. Cut the puppet strings of reaction. I love the move of taking the physical metals out of the COMEX. That is the kind of game move I'm talking about. Just love it. No one says we have to play by "the rules." Change the rules. See it differently.]]>
