We all know that, so long as the Fed keeps the printing presses on, the risk of a worldwide currency crisis gets even higher.
Gold, of course, is the timeless hedge here - for all the reasons you and I know.
But are we truly prepared for a currency crisis?
Much of the gold in the United States is owned by big institutions: the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and bullion banks. So, if a currency crisis hits, their 8,900-ton hoard won't do us a bit of good.
But there is one country whose "democratic" approach to gold ownership will allow its people to survive a currency crisis, literally, in fine style.
Not only that, but this country's people are giving their government a whopping black eye for its heavy-handed ways in the process.
