$50 trillion in debt? How far can we go?

Eric St-Cyr

(Over the next few weeks I will be publishing a series of columns to help investors understand what will be the global economic drivers for the next ten years. I will discuss their effects on our lives and how to profit from the changes ahead through a series of 10 investment themes.

The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I, therefore, intend to oppose the effort to increase America's debt.
Barack Obama, March 16, 2006

Live Well On Passive Income

Louis Petrossi

The biggest concern of most investors today is having enough monthly income to support their lifestyle through retirement.  Far too many people are forced to liquidate their equities, and unfortunately outlive their available money. In fact, a Wells Fargo Bank report indicates that 60% of the middle class will outlive their money.

Business passive income is the number one investment of the wealthiest two percent in the world. Business income is how the rich keep getting richer by living off passive income while compounding their equity holdings.

Frogs. Are You Being Cooked

John C. Doody

If you put a frog in a pot and slowly turn up the heat, it will happily allow itself to be cooked to death. Mr Frog doesn't realize the danger… that the increasingly warm and comfortable water will kill him... until it does. Myopia is the medical term for being able to see near objects clearly while those in the distance are blurred.

Gold Stock Analyst (GSA) sees too many US investors as focused on the short term, and as a result it is a nation of myopic frogs. Investors believe the US Dollar is a sanctuary for savings, when it is not. Versus the alternative reserve currencies, Euro, Yen and Gold, the Dollar has been the worst performer. But those who don't travel abroad are not aware how warm the water is becoming... just like Mr Frog.

Capital Preservation

Simon Black

How would you feel if a gang of criminals broke into your home, stole your most valuable possessions, and then went on national TV to claim it was for your own good?

My guess is that you would be pretty angry.  Yet this is essentially what our central bankers and political leadership are doing right now.

Last year, at a picturesque resort in beautiful Wyoming, Fed chairman Ben Bernanke met with his global counterparts, including the Bank of England’s Mervyn King, the European Central Bank’s Jean-Claude Trichet, and Masaaki Shirakawa of the Bank of Japan.

The financial world was attentively looking for indications of what these men are planning, after having exhausted every monetary policy tool at their disposal.
