Find hard commodities that you will need in a year or five and buy them now.

Inflation is already here.

I priced some 2x10s yesterday... almost double.

OSB is triple over the past year.

Steel is up like crazy.

Copper is double (per a friend)... have not checked.

Houses are scarce and high priced.

Small business and farms are under assault and many are folding. Large businesses (DOW JONES et al) are picking up huge bargains as the middle implodes... that is why the market is still hanging on.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
