Publisher's Summary

Investment industry veteran E.B. Tucker shows listeners the gold market from the inside.

This three-part book breaks gold down into must know sections:

  1. Why Gold?: History reveals an ugly pattern of governments spending tomorrow’s hard-earned savings today leaving unknowing savers holding the bag.
  2. Why Now?: Recent events foretell a dangerous future for money today.
  3. A Gold Market “How To” Manual: From bars to coins and everything in between Tucker walks listeners through the gold market in simple terms.

There’s a reason why the world’s elite count gold as a core asset. During periods of financial turmoil, it’s invaluable.

Gold is the only asset that's not someone else's liability. Apartments rely on paying tenants, stocks rely on company profits, bonds rely on stable interest payments. Gold doesn't rely on anyone or anything for its value.

Tucker guides investors in simple terms through the ways to own gold, from physical bars, to coins, and even mining stocks. He reveals his favorite method, gold royalty companies.

From a financial novice to an investment professional looking to get up to speed on the gold market, Why Gold? Why Now? is the essential guide to the world of gold.

An education of Gold

The author did a decent job of explaining his background, and the history of gold in the global financial system. The end seemed rushed, and I wish he would have spent more time explaining the strategies surrounding gold investments and more of a "how to"...do it. Less about how he came to be with x company, and more about the opportunities within the entire monetary system for gold.

Why Gold? Why not?

E.B. explained very clearly and precisely of how we get to this point of financial uncertainty. Based on what has happened, And I truly believe as E.B. Predicted where we are heading to, the last phase of fiat money system, it’s going to crumble down through our own eyes. This is a rare book that I would highly recommend everyone should read as one way to protect our wealth. And I personally have taken actions of what E.B. recommended in his book since 2016. And I have no regrets!!!

Alternate Title: Inflation Matters

This book was awesome! A great Summary of inflation as well as the stability of gold. Since gold is thought of as a negative, shady or old man asset by my peers (20-35 years of age), I almost wish the title of this book was, "Inflation Matters" so my friends would read it if I gave it to them! Honestly, terrific summary of our financial system and it's problems and a concise history lesson. Well done Mr. Tucker!

Clear and practical.

A solid little guide on investing and brief history on Gold. It's clear and to the point. Relevant to the world right now during these crazy times and written by E.B Tucker a well respected and very experienced director in the Gold Royalty/Streaming business. The book is written so anyone can follow along and I think it would be great for anyone new to the precious metals world looking for guidance on investing properly and even tho I have been researching and investing for years, the book still had areas that blew my mind! (I actually ended up reconfiguring my precious metal portfolio as a result.) I highly recommended.
It just might save your financial future. Listen to it. Especially if you aren't invested in any metals as atleast a hedge to what seems to be the inevitable crash of the U.S dollar and economy.

Thought it would be anothe metalla add

I like EB, but he does use a lot of his air time promoting Metalla where he sits on the board. The way the intro started off I thought this book was going to be one big metalla add that I paid to listen to. Thankfully I was wrong and the metalla promo section was short. His thesis was well thought out and it all makes sense. Could have been a bit longer but he got the point across in this timely book. And yes, I am a metalla shareholder lol.

Excellent beginner's book on gold.

very good book. presented a chronological deterioration of the US financial system. at one point it mentioned gold confiscation as a possible final assault on private wealth, but it did not expend further.
