Slider, although I agree with that assessment

("The name of that commodity was information and the
name of the asset was contrarian thinking,")

If what I have always heard about Joe's start in riches it was smuggling Seagrams Seven from Canada to Chicago during prohibition.

If this be true, and I believe it is it proves to me that tainted blood money brings nothing but bad fortune and death. I think that point is well taken as evidenced by the extreme misfortune that has struck the Kennedy clan from each generation. (Generational Curse).

Were I to pick a man who is a good example I like the Founder of Wendies Restaurants or Sam Walmart.

Slider:

So you state:

"Don't get me wrong, you'll never hear me tell anyone
not to set aside "some" physical gold, and/or silver;
because I think everyone should, and I have.

I just don't think that gold is going to give people
the protection they think they'll have in an actual
deflationary collapse."

Question:

What then might give people the protection in an actual deflationary collapse?
