Sooner or Later Governments Are Going To Crack Down On Crypto Currencies

Governments could issue their own crypto currencies, they could control it that way because governments don't like any of this. They don't like gold for that reason, they want to be able to control everything.

Investing: My Thoughts On Japan

Japan has staggering debt as we all know, they have a declining population and the debt is going through the roof. Mr. Abe says he's going to do whatever it takes, he'll print as much money as it takes and he'll spend as much money as it takes. That cannot last. It never occurred to me that the next financial crisis might start in Japan but Japan is certainly certainly going to be a big  problem!

By the way I own Japanese shares and I'm buying more Japanese shares today just so you know but if I were a ten year old Japanese I would get myself an AK-47 or I would leave because in his lifetime or her lifetime that place is going to be a disaster.

Currencies: I Expect The UD Dollar To Move Higher

I have a lot of US dollars because when the turmoil gets worse many people look for a safe haven. Investors think the US dollar is a safe haven. It's not, America is the largest debtor nation in the history of the world and the debts are going higher but everybody thinks it's a safe haven so the US dollar will go higher and it might even turn into a bubble. I hope at that point I'm smart enough to sell it and put my money somewhere else. It might be gold, who knows where it will be but at the moment I own a lot of US dollars.

Q: Where To Invest (Iran, Nigeria or Kazakhstan)?

Iran, Nigeria or Kazakhstan... Well, my first reaction is Iran but it would be very, very difficult for me because I'm an American. So, I guess I would have to say Kazakhstan. (iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM))

Chinese Shares: My Plan

I haven't sold any Chinese shares and I have been investing there for decades. My plan is that my children someday are going to look back and say, "He must have been very smart, oh! God look at all these Chinese shares, we've got rich!" That's my plan but if things develop in certain ways I'll have to sell, I mean if for instance a bubble develops I have to sell. So, I may sell some of my Chinese shares between here and there. (iShares FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index ETF (FXI), iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM))
