From the Inside Flap

Not too long ago money in the bank meant that something was not only a safe bet, but practically a sure thing, as well. That was then. Today, banks are failing in alarming numbers (according to the FDIC, more than 225 banks in almost 40 states since 2008). And Wall Street continues to go up big one day and down even bigger the next. If your money is in either a bank or the stock market, it's a gamble-and anything but a safe bet, let alone a sure thing. So how does a sophisticated investor respond when questioned about where he's putting his money? If he's traded paper (stocks) for precious metals, he says, My investments are golden. Are you gambling with your money, or are your investments golden?

In Wealth Building Strategies in Energy, Metals and Other Markets, Chris Waltzek-host of Goldseek.com Radio-provides you with the secrets to successfully investing in an economic environment where anything goes and no one seems to know why or where it will go next. You'll learn Waltzek's proprietary investing system, a proven system built around a portfolio rich in energy commodities and precious metals. Topics include:

  • Price behavior/trend investing

  • Why precious metals-specifically, gold-are the ideal insurance plan for any portfolio, and the ideal investment class for years to come

  • Why peak oil and soaring global demand make energy investments a must-have

  • How identifying and conquering personal weaknesses can vastly enhance trading discipline and the performance of your portfolio

  • How, if you're considering purchasing a home, substantial bargains await the patient shopper

  • Why keeping cash reserves in a home safe is a prudent thing to do

  • How and why to replace credit cards with an emergency cash fund

Each chapter closes with a key takeaway for investors, as well as expert answers to real questions from listeners of Goldseek.com Radio.
