With inflation lingering and still impacting our purchasing power, it’s time to ask ourselves: Is it time to invest in gold and precious metals? This begs the question, how much should you have in your portfolio?

In today’s episode, we discuss why yields are going up despite interest rates going down, why weaponizing the US dollar will dramatically change how we live, and how to make alternative assets a sustainable, healthy part of your portfolio.

In this podcast interview, you’ll learn: 

  • Why people aren’t buying houses even though interest rates have gone down. 
  • Why gold is more of a store of value than a hedge against inflation.
  • Reasons the US dollar is likely to lose its status as a reserve currency. 
  • How (and how not) to purchase and store precious metals.
  • What role alternative assets can and should play in your portfolio.
