Story
This is an updated version of the book that accurately predicted the global stock market crash of 2008, the bursting of the real estate bubble, and Ben Bernanke's unprecedented overreaction via quantitative easing programs. First published in 2008, the book quickly became a best seller not just for its timely insight into precious metals investment but for its amazingly accurate prediction of a "roller-coaster crash" - the manipulated whipsaw between inflation, deflation, and back again.

Story
Today, your favorite products are missing from store shelves, caught in supply chain limbo somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. But what does this supply chain disruption look like six months, or even three years, from now? While we hope that post-pandemic recovery will absolve these issues, the reality is that digital currency, meme stonks, and social media can’t solve the age-old problem of producing and moving physical goods across oceans and continents. Jim Rickards argues that consumer frustration is only the tip of a large, menacing iceberg that threatens global economic collapse.

Story
They say John Maynard Keynes called gold a "barbarous relic." They say there isn’t enough gold to support finance and commerce. They say the gold supply can’t increase fast enough to support world growth. They’re wrong. In this bold manifesto, best-selling author and economic commentator James Rickards steps forward to defend gold — as both an irreplaceable store of wealth and a standard for currency.

Story
In 1971, President Nixon imposed national price controls and took the United States off the gold standard, an extreme measure intended to end an ongoing currency war that had destroyed faith in the U.S. dollar. Today we are engaged in a new currency war, and this time the consequences will be far worse than those that confronted Nixon. Currency wars are one of the most destructive and feared outcomes in international economics.

Story
The international monetary system has collapsed three times in the past hundred years, in 1914, 1939, and 1971. Each collapse was followed by a period of tumult: War, civil unrest, or significant damage to the stability of the global economy. Now James Rickards, the acclaimed author of Currency Wars, shows why another collapse is rapidly approaching - and why this time, nothing less than the institution of money itself is at risk.

Since 2014, international monetary agencies have been issuing warnings to a small group of finance ministers, banks, and private equity funds: The US government's cowardly choices not to prosecute J.P. Morgan and its ilk and to bloat the economy with a $4 trillion injection of easy credit are driving us headlong toward a cliff. As Rickards shows in this frightening, meticulously researched book, governments around the world have no compunction about conspiring against their citizens.

Story
The current crisis is not like 2008 or even 1929. The New Depression that has emerged from the COVID pandemic is the worst economic crisis in US history. Most fired employees will remain redundant. Bankruptcies will be common, and banks will buckle under the weight of bad debts. Deflation, debt, and demography will wreck any chance of recovery, and social disorder will follow closely on the heels of market chaos. The happy talk from Wall Street and the White House is an illusion. The worst is yet to come.

Story
There are factors that produce immense profits and these occur rarely. Investors stand at a unique point in monetary history where the death of paper currencies on a global scale is taking place before their eyes. Because most are frozen into inside-the-box thinking, few investors will ride the next move as silver (and gold) skyrocket in the years ahead. In fact the primary purpose of this book is to educate the listener as to why there is no way out of the financial morass created by the financial elite.
Written by: David Morgan, and others
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:
- Why Gold?: History reveals an ugly pattern of governments spending tomorrow’s hard-earned savings today leaving unknowing savers holding the bag.
- Why Now?: Recent events foretell a dangerous future for money today.
- 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.
