Why I am starting to buy more gold (the 1 chart that changed my mind)

Why I am starting to buy more gold (the 1 chart that changed my mind)

Author: Bob Lotich, Linda Lotich July 26, 2025 Duration: 17:49
What if I told you the same ounce of gold that could buy 400 loaves of bread today… could've done the same 2,000 years ago?
 
In this episode, we break down the ONE chart that completely shifted how I think about saving, inflation, and long-term wealth. I've spent over 17 years investing—and I pretty much ignored gold… until this blew my mind.
 
You'll learn:
  • Why I now see gold as a defensive asset in our portfolio
  • How inflation has quietly destroyed the purchasing power of your dollars
  • The story of bread, gold, and a century of financial erosion
  • My favorite tool to buy gold automatically with as little as $10
  • Why I think gold might be the most biblical investment on earth
  • What we're doing to protect our family's future
If you're sitting on too much cash or wondering how to hedge against chaos—you'll want to hear this.
