The other day I was in the car driving around and heard a commercial for Goldline on the radio. I didn't get to hear the whole commercial at the time, but some of the relationships of Gold price to the economy they were making seamed out there.
I set out to see if I could find the commercial on the internet and sure enough, I found it on their website (I attached the link if you are interested in listening to it).
Their big theory is: as the U.S. National Debt goes up, so does the price of Gold. Since the U.S. National Debt it projected to up to 20 trillion dollars; you should own gold now! That is like saying: the sun will rise tomorrow, so you need gold to buy the things you need; get yours today!
Any PM can have a place in your: investment portfolio / retirement plan / Emergency plan / SHFT plan / PAW scenario. Trying to couple some loosely related facts together into a reason why you need to buy it now.....I hope people are planning out the direction they want their investments going and what they need to do to get there. From reading some of the Goldline reviews, that doesn't appear to be the case.
It appears that people are blindly beveling what they are hearing in these commercials and going "all in" when given the chance; and losing a lot of money due to the HUGE premium price they are being charged. One guy, in the reviews I read, stated (I kid you not) "Glenn Beck approved...so I thought it was safe to call them."
Ugh...
Stay informed, research the topic a little and make your own decisions.
