Ok - here's my solution to the falling dollar and the " lack of gold "

" Here's How to Inflation Proof Your Money And Collect FREE Silver

Eagle $1 Coins " All Aboard The Silver Snowball Express

By Jim Lynn, Copyrighted 2008

Faced with global recession and inflation, increasing numbers of

people worldwide are concerned about their money. These are ordinary,

budget strapped folks, who see their money buying less and less. They

know unless they can find a way to protect the value of what money

they have, their standard of living will continue to deteriorate. If

this sounds like you, welcome to the Silver Snowball Express.

The Silver Snowball Express provides an inexpensive and profitable

way to invest in silver, the working man's gold (called hard money).

Why silver? Unlike paper currencies, precious metals like silver and

gold keep their value. Take two U.S. quarters for example:

One was minted in 1964 and is made out of silver. The other, minted

in 1965, looks like the 1964 quarter but it is made from copper and

nickel (It has no silver).

To illustrate the difference between the buying power of these two

coins: In 1964, a loaf of whole wheat bread cost .25 cents. The 1964

silver quarter today still buys a loaf of whole wheat bread. However

it takes 10 of the 1965 quarters to buy the same loaf. Why is this?

The 1964 quarter is worth $2.50 for its silver. The 1965 quarter is

worth .25 cents because its value is determined by government policy.

The price of silver in the 1964 quarter reflects the free market

value and lost purchasing power of the dollar.

Bread prices haven't really gone up at all over the past 40 years.

They just " seem " to have gone up because the value of our money has

gone down. And that's how it is for virtually everything we buy.

Now you know why you will not find any silver quarters in your loose

change. They are all hoarded away making them scarce.

Like gold, silver must be mined. That means there is a lot of labor

and cost involved in the mining and refining of silver. This limits

the availability and quantity of silver insuring its value.

Because silver is such a great conductor of electricity, it is in

heavy demand throughout the electronic industry. For instance, your

cell phone contains about $1 worth of silver. In fact, the industrial

and jewelry demand for silver is so high the available world supply

of silver at any given time is very limited. To illustrate: If you

could put all the silver available today into one big cube, it would

only measure 37 feet by 37 feet by 37 feet, far less than people

think.

The Silver Snowball Program

American Eagle Silver $1 Coin

Ed Freeman, of Halifax, MA, created the Silver Snowball program in

2007 to provide an inexpensive and fun way for people to collect more

and more silver to protect their money from inflation.

For a small monthly fee, Snowball members receive (monthly) a full,

one-ounce, Silver American Eagle $1 coin minted by the U.S. Mint.

These coins are legal tender of the United States and instantly

recognized the world over. These coins are not only beautiful they

are inflation proof. And here's the best part…Ed's program offers a

bonus that can get you many more Silver Eagles every month, all

without added cost.

How to Collect Dozens of Silver Eagles For Free…

Silver Snowball members receive their own website to promote the

Silver Snowball program at no extra cost. For every two new orders

generated from a member's Silver Snowball website, that member gets a

bonus: An inflation proof silver American Eagle coin. Members also

get additional bonus American Eagle Silver Coins on every two repeat

customer orders for as long as they remain a member.

Think what this could mean. You can create an inflation proof income!

When ten people order one Silver Eagle each, or five people order two

Eagles each, the bonus is five inflation proof Silver Eagles. When

100 people order one Silver Eagle each, the bonus is 50 inflation

proof Silver Eagles…ALL FOR THE SAME LOW MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP FEE.

Think other people would like to know about Ed's program?

Note: Silver Snowball reserves the right to substitute an equivalent

value of American Eagle Gold Coins depending on market conditions or

shipping weight. Or, if you prefer cash you can choose to get paid by

check.

Create an inflation proof income. If silver goes up you get paid more!

This report does not attempt to give any investment advice. Precious

metals prices will change. However, most silver forecasters agree the

time is fast approaching that low silver prices will end with an

explosive termination upwards. Don't wait for $100 per ounce silver.

Smart money is buying now while silver is still affordable.

Silver is a highly liquid commodity.

By collecting Silver Eagles every month, you are inflation proofing

your future. At the time this report was first published, coin

dealers were offering Silver Eagles for about $17.50 per coin. Prices

are based on the market price of silver, plus a small premium to

cover minting and distribution costs.

Imagine building a collection of these coins now while silver is

still affordable. Think what these silver coins could mean to you

should silver climb to higher prices in the months and years ahead.

Best of all: These beautiful silver coins are highly liquid. That is

to say, they can be quickly converted to paper currency (cash)

whenever you want, or traded for goods and services. That's because

people are always looking for silver, and Silver Eagles are America's

most popular bullion coin.

Let's say you collected 100 Silver Eagles while silver was still

under $20 and ounce. In this example, let's say silver is now priced

at $100 an ounce, and you want to sell your Silver Eagle coins. You

would get back the original value of each coin you paid at the time

of purchase, PLUS nearly $80 an ounce more on every coin you sell.

That is what is meant by the term " inflation proof. " Remember our

silver quarter example?

By being a Silver Snowball member, you can start collecting one

Silver Eagle per month or a hundred. Only you will decide on the

amount. The important thing is you are taking active steps to

protect the purchasing power of your money.

There are no long term contracts to sign. You simply pay a low

monthly membership fee once per month, and can cancel your membership

at any time. The Silver Snowball is not an MLM opportunity. It is a

r based membership program that offers a single tier

affiliate program. You cannot earn bonuses from coin sales made by

other members.

With inflation on the move and more and more people looking for ways

to keep their money from losing value, a monthly subscription to

Silver Snowball makes perfect sense. Once people see these large,

beautiful coins and feel their heavy weight, they want to collect

more of them

" If you don't trust silver and gold, do you trust the logic of taking

a pine tree, worth $4,000-$5,000, cutting it up, turning it into

pulp, putting some ink on it and then calling it one billion

dollars? " - Kenneth J. Gerbino

This--Excellant idea.

Whether one believes it or not--money backed with

gold/silver has ALWAYS been the sign of a " dependable

nation " . By now, the whole world knows about our fiat

money, and our 24/7 printing presses.

There is presently pending, thru the FOIA to determine

just what amount(s) of silver/gold the US possesses

and where...(Of course our bush is presently trying to

do away with the FOIA).

Also, I've seen some things in print having to do with

the shipping of almost a BILLION dollars--(in 2 or 3

separate lots to European banks a year or two before

the '29 crash--kept secret because of Fed Reserve's

doing. ( This knowledge, when it surfaced, is a

plausible reason for precipitating the crash). I want

to pursue this theory. Perhaps someone else has,

already... Deserves some more research, for sure.

I know I've been gun-shy re: gold/silver, (since in

the early '80's, I lost my posterior in the silver

market).

However, I certainly believe in this idea presented

here, and I know it's viable (and valuable info)

because gold/silver ain't gonna decrease in value,

except in the short term fluctuations.

Again--Excellent idea...Worth pursuing.

Kenn,

what will you do if/when the government becomes bankrupt (not an

unlikely event when you add up all the debt the U.S. government owes,

all the funded and unfunded debt, the amount comes to 73.2 trillion

dollars (This according to Grandfather Economic Reports).

http://mwhodges.home.att.net/debt-summary-table.htm) and those pieces

of paper in your pocket, in the bank, under your mattress became

(remain) only pieces of worthless paper? What would you do if you

needed food and all you had were these worthless pieces of paper? I

guess you can burn them for heat. These 'snowball' coins are real

U.S. goverment minted coins. They have a face value of One Dollar

although the value of the silver (1 try ounce) is worth much more as

the value of the dollar falls rapidly.

Love him or hate him, Congressman Ron Paul is right on the money when

he speaks about inflation and the collapse of the dollar. Anyone who

has not listened carefully to what Congressman Ron Paul is saying

should probably have a quick listen. Congressman (and Presidential

Candidate) Paul has served on The House Banking Committee and The

Financial Services Committee. If anyone is in a position to see what

our country has in store financially it is this man.

In a video interview with Mike Maloney - congressman (and

Presidential Candidate) Ron Paul warns what lies dead ahead for our

country if we continue on our present path.

He points out that even though we could wake up and change course now

many are too content to worry about what is coming.

" I think we're going to have a collapse before they come around to

thinking about monetary policy, and why we have to revamp it.

Recently we've seen the dollar go down sharply, I think it's going to

continue, and hopefully it'll wake the people up, and find out you

have to have honest money, and follow the constitution, because it

says only gold and silver can be legal tender. "

When asked if he thought the price of gold was manipulated he said.

" …the market ultimately rules even though, under today's

circumstances, a Bernanke or a Greenspan, are very, very powerful,

………..I'm sure they are trying, to manipulate the price of gold, and

they're always trying to manipulate the value of the dollars… "

What he says is amazing to me and he has the information to back it

up. Listen to what he says about our dollar in this recent video

interview. It is a must watch, 4.5 minute eye-opening video and can

be accessed here.

It was not illegal People just could not own hoards of gold. People could

have up to $100 in gold coins. This was because after the

Depression, folks got scared and began turning in paper money for

gold - as did many banks, both national and foreign. so, Executive Order

6102 was passed, which required people to turn in their gold, beyond $100

worth, in exchange for paper money. Even so, there were some

who didn't turn their coins in. The coins were melted into bars by the

Treasury Dept. The logic was, to avoid panic and keep the dollar afloat

in the overseas market. It worked.

Gold, and now silver, are extremely wise investments. I'm dating myself,

but while I didn't have the money to do it, I told some of my siblings -

and anyone I could get to listen - to buy some gold while it was $32 an

ounce. Read a book about the coming inflation, and it made sense. Of

course, no one listened to me, and in a very short time, the gold price

tripled. I just read something that said gold could wind up being $1000

per troy ounce by summer 2008. Anyone who thinks the dollar isn't

going be worth less and less, is either a fool, or hasn't been

paying attention. If we could, I would most certainly invest in either

silver or gold - unfortunately, we have problems making it from month to

month, let alone spending money to put aside... *sigh*

what will you do if/when the government becomes bankrupt (not an

all the funded and unfunded debt, the amount comes to 73.2 trillion

dollars (This according to Grandfather Economic Reports).

http://mwhodges.home.att.net/debt-summary-table.htm) and those pieces

of paper in your pocket, in the bank, under your mattress became

When asked if he thought the price of gold was manipulated he

" …the market ultimately rules even though, under today's

Here are the prices for the past forty days. I have bought small portions of

one ounce silver rounds for the past several years.

If I was to sell my silver today I would have made $306.40 just over the weekend.

One of the futurists says silver will go to $75.00. There are people today saying

silver will go over one hundred. There are so many ignorant people out there it is

beyond ridiculous. During a time of collapse when our paper money is worthless

I would rather have the bullion than the silver coins because of those ignorant people.

They know what quarters, halves and dollars are and will only figure them at their

face value. I'm talking about the junk silver now, not the silver eagles that say one

ounce on them. A lot of people buy up bags of the junk silver at a premium price

based on the silver content but when TSHTF the average person will only accept

them at their face value. An ounce of pure silver or gold will be a different story.

There are people today sayingsilver will go over one hundred. There are so many ignorant people out there it isbeyond ridiculous. During a time of collapse when our paper money is worthlessI would rather have the bullion than the silver coins because of those ignorant people.They know what quarters, halves and dollars are and will only figure them at theirface value. I'm talking about the junk silver now, not the silver eagles that say oneounce on them. A lot of people buy up bags of the junk silver at a premium pricebased on the silver content but when TSHTF the average person will only acceptthem at their face value. An ounce of pure silver or gold will be a different story.

If you can not....so what does it matter.It was not illegal People just could not own hoards of gold. People could have up to $100 in gold coins. This was because after the Depression, folks got scared and began turning in paper money for gold - as did many banks, both national and foreign. so, Executive Order 6102 was passed, which required people to turn in their gold, beyond $100 worth, in exchange for paper money. Even so, there were some who didn't turn their coins in. The coins were melted into bars by the Treasury Dept. The logic was, to avoid panic and keep the dollar afloat in the overseas market. It worked. Gold, and now silver, are extremely wise investments. I'm dating myself, but while I didn't have the money to do it, I told some of my siblings - and anyone I could get to listen - to buy some gold while it was $32 an ounce. Read a book about the coming inflation, and it made sense. Of course, no one listened to me, and in a very short time, the gold price tripled. I just read something that said gold could wind up being $1000 per troy ounce by summer 2008. Anyone who thinks the dollar isn't going be worth less and less, is either a fool, or hasn't been paying attention. If we could, I would most certainly invest in either silver or gold - unfortunately, we have problems making it from month to month, let alone spending money to put aside... *sigh*Lynn

As I said, it was not illegal. It was considered illegal to

" hoard " it, however. What was it worth? In 1933, $100 was two

or three months wages for the average worker, about $6000 to $10,000 in

today's money. The fine you mentioned is ridiculous - especially for the

time. According to Presidential Order 6102, the Gold Confiscation of

April 5, 1933, Section 9: ... may be fined not more than $10,000,

or,if a natural person may be imprisoned for not more than ten years or

both; and any officer, director, or agent of any corporation who

knowingly participates in any such violation may be punished by a like

fine, imprisonment, or both.

Of course, back then $10,000 may have seemed like a $100,000

As I said, gold and silver are good things to have - if you can afford to

buy them. Certainly, should the day ever come if the economy collapses,

paper won't be worth squat. Let's just hope the right things will be done

so that doesn't happen. If it ever does, not only America would be

affected, but the repercussions would be felt world-wide.

It was not illegal......you just

could not own hoards....hoards of gold.....just no more than 100

dollars....and if you did had more, you would be fined up to 100,000

thousands dollars, and 10 years in jail. What is 100 dollars in to days

dollars.....1,000 ? so if the dollar collapse.....what good would that

1,000 dollar do you.
