  2. you like commodities, but watch out for etfs because what happens is that
    there is thing called contango..no investment is safe

  3. Prophet Muhammed SAW said “A time is certainly coming over mankind in which
    there will be nothing of value except Dinar (gold coin) and Dirham (silver
    coin)” Musnad, Ahmad Bin Hanbal Narrated by Abu Bakar ibn Abi Maryam

    “There is a huge artificial boom going on,” warns Jim Rogers as for the
    first time in history, all the world’s major central banks are
    simultaneously printing money. While he remains adamant of the positive
    outlook for agriculture, the fact that “the whole world is trying to debase
    their currencies,” produces a “major disconnect” between asset values and
    economic realities. Stocks are at new highs, not based on reality, but on
    printing presses “and that cannot work… this is going to end very very
    badly.” While not all western economies are as egregious as others, the
    intertwined nature means their fate remains very much tethered to the US,
    and as Rogers concludes, “everybody will suffer, be very very careful as
    these are perilous times.”

  4. This guy knows is a reknown expert on international trade. The Pentagon
    even consults him when they simulate currency war in their war games.

    What he is saying about farming and food prices is rather scary.

  5. This isn’t going to benefit western countries much, since the cartel
    (Monsanto etc.) is driving out most small operators. I fear that government
    desk jockeys in places like Canada will think they can continue deficit
    spending because it will be offset by rising prices. Wrong. EVERYTHING IS
    GOING TO BECOME MORE EXPENSIVE, INCLUDING GOVERNMENT. YOU NEED TO CUT YOUR
    SPENDING MUCH MORE, AND KEEP IT DOWN.

  6. actually without an honest market to trade in all the prices would be
    triple or even 20 times higher. The volatility of the weather induces risk
    & the farmer’s only choice to cover it is to charge you for all potential
    losses. OR let them trade contracts short in the futures market. One or the
    other. Take trading away and you WILL pay 50 dollars for ONE loaf of bread.
    WILL and you’ll be THANKFUL it’s so cheap.

  7. #1 GMO corn is causing CANCER in animals it is fed to. Do you call that
    FOOD? Normal corn doesn’t do that. #2 crops ARE being burned from
    dehydration & buried into the soil again to start over. That’s been widely
    reported in the last 2 summers. #3 fukushima radiation IS IN THE FUCKING
    WATER. That’s pretty serious & threatens our food supply. What farmer can
    deny this? WHO CAN DENY THIS? Will you deny this?

  8. I’m not lecturing a farmer on the production of food. Man, try re-reading
    this start to finish & see if you still come to the same conclusion. How
    much corn do you get for 49 cents? Corn can be very expensive at 49 cents
    if you only get one mouth full. How much food is in that pizza? How filling
    is it? How skimpy are the toppings? Pretty skimpy. I’ve had it, it’s tasty,
    but it isn’t filling. I can make more for $5 on my own & even then it’s
    still expensive & getting MORE expensive.

  9. yeah we definitely need more young farmers, all over the world, to feed
    THEIR LOCAL economies, not ours. the last thing the world needs are more
    commodities traders, hedge funders and other greedy financiers & vulture
    capitalists, like yourself Jim Rogers.

  10. per equal weight, bread, corn, ham coldcuts, chicken, beef, have all
    doubled in the last 10 years, start to finish. Chicken’s gone up 15% just
    in the last 2 months where I live.

  11. How are you supposed to get young people into farming, when communist
    corporations own all farms? It has nothing to do whatsoever with the
    profitability of farming, anymore than it did in the Soviet Union when
    corporations ran the Soviet farms. In a Soviet economy, stocks go up,
    Detroit goes bankrupt, physical gold shortage, price going down,. In a
    command economy with a phony stock market and commodities market prices,
    you can do anything, like create $16 trillion from nothing.
