Mainstream media reporting the truth about the economy? 180 degree turn, heads up.

Peter Schiff on Yahoo news!!! Wow, someone who actually knows something about what's really going on in the economy...on mainstream media??? Pinch me.

Dear Readers, if I actually have any readers....

I am delighted to report that Peter Schiff is on Yahoo News.  Why am I delighted?  Because mainstream news does not often, if ever, invite financial guys who have been right for the past ten years.  They usually have the kind of financial guys who are clueless, as in, "Gee, we didn't see this housing debacle coming," or, "We didn't see this downturn in the economy coming," or, "Gold is in a bubble, get out now...oops, well anyway, never mind." ...whine, whine.  Let me tell you, in no uncertain terms, plenty of smart guys out there knew exactly what was coming.  I was teased by friends about selling my condo in 2006, because I was listening to guys like Peter Schiff.  (Many of these same friends now call me for financial advice.)

So if you've been listening the mainstream news to help you make wise decisions, yes, the same mainstream news that has talked about a "recovery" for the past three years...then I suggest you switch channels.  Check out Kingworldnews.com or sgtreport.com.  But for now, listen to Peter Schiff.
