It seems to me the rational course for investment success would be to take on as much debt as possible that will be inflated away and go into the best inflation hedges with that borrowed money - so again - are you taking out helocs and credit card offers and leveraging anything else you can and where are you spending this "debt"? If you are not doing this then your actions do not back up your words and beliefs. You are a man of conviction correct? :)

If Hyperinflation is just around the corner - what are you waiting for? Borrow to the high heavens - if you are not doing this I cannot take you seriously - like I said - when I see russ helocing to buy gold or some other inflation hedge then a key indicator will be triggered - even General Chen is not leveraging to the hilt and burying gold in his backyard is he? hehe Even Bernanke took out a HELOC - what does he know that you don't? My grandpa could have worked in the gold mines, he chose to make moonshine.

I have read all the books money mogul - I will do you one better - here is a video for you to watch made in 2003 about hyperinflation in argentina and mexico - a pictures worth a thousand words. Just sign up and click on the VOD (video on demand) link.
