The fiat currency printing presses are warming up. Soon, free fiat money will flood the world, further devaluing and eroding the US dollars in your bank account. A tip from Uncle Willie.

For the physician who neglects his duty betrays both art and trust, and in such neglect, he becomes a stranger to wisdom and virtue alike."
