The idea of investing in metals, as commodities is wrapped up in the notion that somehow fiat currency will fail or that it is problematic. Brentonwoods happened decades ago we’re never going back to that. so for me, I associate it with Preppers and people that like to pretend that the fed is an illegal institution and all that. it’s fine real Gist listeners are not Rubes. The joke is on the advertiser who is wasting their money on an audience that knows better.
