Two Reasons to Own Silver
1. Inflation – As the value of paper money declines, the value of REAL “stuff” (and precious metals particularly) trades higher
2. Consumption – Silver is used for various “real” purposes which means the amount of silver available is continually dropping
Reason One: Inflation
• Money being pumped into global firms
• World is loading up on debt
• U.S. must PAY for this debt
• Excessive printing of money has nasty consequences

Getting Ahead of Inflation
1. Beat inflation by owning “stuff”
2. Tangible items maintain their value and by definition increase in price
3. Precious metals offer ease of storage and universally recognized value
Reason Two: Consumption
• Extensive medicinal uses– anti-bacterial wound dressings
• Superior electric components– soldering solutions and specialty batteries
• Excellent reflective properties– mirrors for high-intensity functions
• Additional uses in photography, X-ray technology, and dentistry
Effects of Our Consumption
• Silver is being used up and taken out of circulation due to consumption
• U.S. Mint halts production of some coins due to shortage of metals
• U.S. Mint cites “extreme fluctuating market conditions”

Price of Silver on the Rise
