Jim Rogers explains why “everybody should own precious metals as an insurance policy”

“We’ve got to stop this, this is going to be bad!”

That’s the take of legendary investor Jim Rogers, who has told Birch Gold Group that he expects a “serious collapse” of the financial markets. Simply put, he explains, the Federal Reserve’s policies are not sustainable and eventually “everybody loses”.

One of the world’s most renowned financial commentators, Rogers also explains why gold acts as insurance, and urges anyone who does not own precious metals to buy and accumulate as much as possible.

How will the global currency wars end?“We’re all losing in currency wars. How long can it go on? Well, it can go on as long as politicians can continue to print money. The problem is, of course, eventually the markets will just say, ‘We’re not going to play this game anymore’ and we’ll have a serious collapse.”

Why do you value gold in your savings portfolio?“I’ve owned gold for many years, I’ve never sold any gold and I can’t imagine I ever will sell gold in my life because it is somewhat of an insurance policy.”

Why should we take your word on investing in precious metals?“Don’t buy gold because you heard me say it … But if people don’t own they should start after they have done their homework. And then they will probably realize, “I better have insurance, and gold and silver may get me through serious problems ahead.”
