Michael is convinced that we are heading into “The Greater Depression” as the world is awash in 17 trillion dollars in negative-yielding debt. He says, “We are no longer living in reality; this is a fantasy created by massive monetization of debt from central banks.” The middle class is being wiped out, having lost 25 million jobs in five weeks, and we are witnessing a new era of helicopter money and universal basic income. This is the ideal time and environment for holding gold to protect your purchasing power.
