Silver Rises Over 120% YTD Invest Now 
Most investors think they own gold. But according to expert Alan Hibbard, much of it might not be what it seems.
In this revealing Big Biz interview, Alan breaks down the quiet — but growing — divide between paper gold (like ETFs) and true physical bullion. He also outlines how a shift to digital currency and a long-overdue audit of U.S. gold reserves could shock the system and ignite a massive revaluation.
If you want real protection, real value, and real gold — you need to watch this.
The Roman suit myth says gold has always bought the same amount. The real history is more complicated — and far more revealing about where gold’s value is headed.
Most dollar headlines are either pure panic or total dismissal. The truth is more uncomfortable. Harvard economist Kenneth Rogoff predicts the yuan becomes a global reserve currency within five years — and IMF data shows the dollar’s share of global reserves has been quietly falling for over two decades. Here’s what that slow shift actually means for your purchasing power.
Global personal wealth stands at $471 trillion. Privately held gold accounts for roughly 6% of that. Understanding where the world stores its wealth — and what happens when even a fraction shifts toward gold — is the foundation of the precious metals case.
Every fiat currency in history has lost purchasing power over time. This guide explains why the system is structurally fragile, what history tells us about monetary collapse, and why gold and silver have protected wealth for thousands of years.
Central Bank Digital Currencies are already in active pilots across 137 countries. For gold investors, the real risk isn’t inflation — it’s that programmable money could quietly block access to precious metals altogether.
Gold is trading at $4,648/oz — up 41% from a year ago, down 14% from January’s record. Both numbers are true. The one that matters is the 41%. It held through a war, three hawkish Fed holds, and the most fractured FOMC vote since 1992. Here’s why that gap between the record and today’s price is a floor, not a warning.
GDP is up. So is inflation. Savings are down. Real incomes are falling. Here are five economic data points released today that every gold investor needs to understand — and what each one means for the case for physical gold.
Asian investors drove physical gold bar demand to an all-time quarterly record in Q1 2026 — while Western ETF holders sold. The WGC’s latest demand report shows which side of that trade is thinking in decades, not quarters.
Samantha is wonderful. I was nervous about spending a chunk of money. I asked her to `hold my hand’ and walk me through making my purchase.
She laughed and guided me through, step by step. She was so helpful in explaining everything...
Travis was amazing! I was having difficulty with a wire transfer of my life’s savings, and I was very worried that I might not be able to receive it all. My husband just passed away and I’ve been worried about these funds along with grieving for 8 months. As soon as I got connected with Travis, my concerns were immediately addressed and he put me at ease. The issue was resolved within days. He even called me back with updates to keep me in the loop about what was going on with the funds. I am so grateful for a customer representative like Travis. He really cares for his clients.
Sam was also very helpful! I called and was connected to Sam within 30 seconds. She helped me with a fee that was charged to my account. She had a great attitude and took care of the fee quickly.
Outstanding quality and customer service. I first discovered Mike Maloney through his “Secrets of Money” video series. It was an excellent precious metals education. I was a financial advisor and it really helped me learn more about wealth protection. I used this knowledge to help protect my clients retirements. I purchase my precious metals through goldsilver.com. It is easy, fast and convenient. I also invested my IRA’s and utilize their excellent storage options. Bottom line, Mike and his team have earned my trust. I continue to invest in wealth protection and my own education. I give back and help others see the opportunities to invest in precious metals. Thank you.
