What kind of world is it when a man who says to airport security, "Don't touch my junk", becomes a national hero? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UqM56e-kRALost in the national "Porn or Fondle" choice being offered by the TSA is the loss of our gun rights.On the campaign trail for President of the United States, Ron Paul said, "911 would never have happened if, in the United States of America, the...Read More
Which is better, gold or silver?I like silver better because it's being consumed by industry. It's a much smaller market, by far, and thus, will move up far more than gold. If the silver to gold ratio returns to the historic value ratio of 15 oz. of silver for every 1 oz. of gold, you'd make far more on silver, since the current ratio is about 53:1. But I think silver might exceed the histor...Read More
Through research over the last ten years, I have come to believe that Halloween is a prophetic rehearsal that shows the return of Jesus, the resurrection of the dead, and the rapture to heaven.I believe the meaning of Halloween symbols, are as follows:The candy is a symbol of heaven.The door is a symbol of Jesus.The dressing up as skeletons, zombies, and ghouls are a symbol of those who will be re...Read More
Obama is an amazing gun salesman and silver salesman. He's caused the gun sales by being a gun grabbing liberal. He's an even better silver salesman than gun salesman though, since the sales of US Mint Silver Eagles has just about trippled on his watch, but I'd never even heard him mention the subject of silver. That's quite a feat!Politics this year has just not gripped me like other ye...Read More
Through debate, we all get the chance to see more clearly, and understand better who is right, and what the truth may actually be. 1 Corinthians 11:19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.Proverbs 9:8 Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.A critic responds to my latest article:Today:...Read More
The best thing about having honest employees is the honest accounting, which allows us to offer lower prices! We had a record business volume last month at the JH MINT! We also lowered a lot of overhead, and we are doing more with fewer and better employees.A lot of people are trading in gold for silver, and we are good sellers of silver, so we convince many people to buy silver, instead of go...Read More
It is too late for any of you, personally, to buy much silver below $20 per ounce.While silver prices languished at about $5/oz. for almost two decades until about 2001, it's now too late for you to buy much, if any, silver below $20/oz. Did your personal wealth increase that much in the last decade like silver prices did? I don't think any billionaire in the world matched or exceeded that per...Read More
Please bear with me while I repeat myself about how tiny the silver market is. Let's start with the facts.World annual silver mining adds about 600 million ounces of new silver, that includes all silver as byproduct supply from copper, gold, lead, zinc and other mines. Recycling contributes about 150 million oz. That's total supply.That is balanced on the demand side by industrial demand,...Read More

There were a lot of responses. Many positive responses. Some negative, and a few weird ones, too.2. Nobody wrot...Read More
I first began to take the Bible seriously after a personal 6 month study of the topic of creation vs. evolution. I did this in the year 1998, about 2 years after I graduated from college. I started the study because I was feeling guilty about the way I was living my life, because of what I knew from the Bible. I felt I could cast off the guilt if the Bible were not true, and if man evolved....Read More
I consider one of my greatest strengths is my ability to listen. Of course, my wife would say I can't hear a thing, but you married men know how that goes. I might admit that my hearing actually might need a checkup, perhaps from too much exposure to loud music, but that's not the point.To listen goes beyond hearing, to understanding and paying attention, and ultimately acting wisely on what y...Read More
Guess how much more Americans spend on Health Care than on precious metals.Guess. Really. Pause and think about it.Guess now, because I'll tell you in a second.Too late.In 2007, the U.S. spent $2.26 trillion on health care, or $7,439 per person.Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_in_the_United_StatesIn 2009, the U.S. mint manufactured and sold 28.7 million oz. of Silver Eagle co...Read More
May I explain for a moment why American stocks are so overvalued compared to gold?Ok, let's start with the basic premise of stocks.A stock is a fractional ownership of a business, the goal of which is to make money. If the business can make money, then the stock might be worth something, in theory, if everything goes right. If money is defined by gold, then all the businesses in the world can...Read More
Usury.Lending at interest (usury) is the bane of our era, the highest crime of the ages, condemned by prophets, regulated by God, and ignored by modern man. God said no usury, unless you loan to other nations, but every seventh year is supposed to be a time of debt forgiveness, thus, it's a plan to teach the nations about God, yet abused instead to enslave people into perpetual bondage. Usurer...Read More
I get a lot of emails from people who fear an economic collapse that could come after a complete and catastrophic failure of the dollar. These people own silver and gold, but fear that might not be enough. They feel they should not be dependent upon trade for survival, but that they should be completely self-sufficient. In fact, my own wife, and my readings of other "doom and gloomers" insp...Read More
More of my readers ask me about confiscation than any other issue. I continue to refer people to my article from 2008, but it's time for an update. http://silverstockreport.com/2008/confiscation.html I stand by what I wrote in the past, but there is more to say.First of all, gold in the hands of the American public has never been confiscated, never can be, and never will be.confiscate1.

Many people today are cashing out their CD's to buy silver and gold. Why?The obvious. The CD's pay next to zero interest, and gold and silver continue to head up by 20-30% per year. Most of our gold and silver buying customers have completely lost faith in the government's ability to "run" the economy, but more than that, there is a real fear of the government today, that it will turn dram...Read More
Welcome. Thank you!I'm very honored to be here. My name is Jason Hommel. I'm the Editor of the Silver Stock Report. This last year, I started dealing in silver, selling silver, at www.jhmint.com and I learned a lot more about the silver trade. My speech today is on why silver is money, even though no nation on earth uses silver as money.In other words, my speech is on why 99.9% of human...Read More
The government is spending $1500 billion more per year than they are getting in taxes. They are not borrowing this money; they are printing it. There is no political will to fix the problem. The "Occupy Wall Street" protests are about a protest against the Wall Street bailouts, but also, it's about the 99% wanting more government handouts than they are already getting, and already 43 milli...Read More
