Mike : "....just in case the shit hits the fan, and the dollar becomes toilet paper."

Then the SAf rand will be the most valuable currency in the world.

And South African real estate will be worth more than the Japanese.

And the previously disadvantaged locals will be the richest people in the world.

And I will have a yacht on the Med and two villas in France.

And we achieved all this just by lying around in the sun!

More please..........

Bush isn't on the Board of Barrick - he is on the Advisory Board of which Mulroney is Chairman. M. is also on the main Board. The Advisory Board (which includes Kissenger among others) advises the corporation on a broad range of subjects including including politics, economics, and carries out lobbying for the Co.

Barrick is a widely held giant corporation and the CIA could not get control. d

If you want to expand into left field, and if you sometimes read fiction that admits it is fiction, you might enjoy (as i did) a book entitled "NEST OF VIPERS". It was written by a young woman, who has a good education followed by several years as a currency trader in NY. Not sure of her name but Linda Davies is what my failing memory tells me.

Interesting stuff to ponder.
