Shownotes Transcript

Peter Schiff made a name for himself in finance by challenging mainstream views on wealth and the economy. In 2011, he attended the Occupy Wall Street protests with a sign that read, “I am the 1%,” challenging the movement’s perception of wealth inequality. A vocal critic of inflation and government spending, Peter accurately predicted the 2008 financial crisis. He also strongly advocates investing in real assets like gold, as opposed to Crypto. In this episode, Peter breaks down the real causes of inflation and income inequality, explains why Bitcoin isn’t a safe investment and shares the best strategies to protect your wealth from inflation.
