It has been over a month since my last sound money update, and what a month it was! As 2017 comes to a close there is much to do by way of review, but unfortunately I haven’t had the bandwidth for it recently. I just finished up the busiest tutoring season of my career, and between that and podcasting my articles have gone by the wayside somewhat. This is unfortunate, as I really enjoy writing and presenting my views this way. I can’t make any promises, but with a new year arriving I will be praying and thinking about how best to communicate all of the necessary information in writing, audio, and video. If you have any suggestions or comments please feel free to email me at amateursociety@gmail.com.
I will certainly be changing the format of these updates in 2018 as there are many more cryptocurrencies and tokens that I would like to cover, but producing a 5,000 word report every week isn’t tenable for me or for readers. There will be more basic materials for crypto beginners that I will be putting together, so stay tuned for those!
Will 2018 finally see the liberation of precious metals? I hope so, but in the meantime I will continue to accumulate all forms of sounds money at the best prices I can find. As always, do your own research, don’t invest anything you can’t afford to lose, be smart about managing your trades, and avoid holding assets through third parties. These are wild times, but they are likely far from over.
The return of sound money is just beginning…
