Today we’re going to be talking about why central banks are purchasing so much gold right now. How much gold? Between 2022-2023, central banks around the world accumulated over 1,000 metric tons of official gold reserves according to the World Gold Council. Why on earth would they be doing that? That’s what today’s video is all about. 

In today’s video we’re going to talk about how to invest $1000 in 2025. The thing is, stocks make recognizable patterns–and you can learn to identify those patterns. First, get your hands on $1000 (go out and have a garage sale if you need to). Then learn how to do small money trading (we teach you how at tradeway.com). I recommend you try and triple that $1000 in the first three months, and then try and do it again. (Once you have about $10,000 in your trading account, you can start to do some real damage with that. 😀)

Today we’re going to be answering the question, “Is gold a good investment?” One of the biggest reasons people consider buying gold as an investment is its price appreciation. Gold has a 20 year average annual rate of return of 8.8%. Now this is only a few percentage points behind stocks over the same time frame. You can’t argue that an almost 9% annual rate of return is bad. But that’s not the only benefit of buying gold. Let’s talk about some of my other favorite reasons to purchase this precious metal.

I’ll never forget the experience of becoming a first time precious metals investor over a decade ago. I was excited about the idea of owning real money in a format that could withstand all of the generations to come so that my kids could have a valuable asset handed down to them. Between then and now I’ve learned a lot about the precious metals industry and how it works–the good and the bad. Today I’d like to share with you what I would do–knowing what I know now–if I had to start completely over beginning to purchase precious metals. Here’s what I would do…

In today’s video we’re going to discuss the primary thing rich people do differently with their money. Rich people don’t use their money differently because they have more of it. They have more of it because they use their money differently. So what is it that rich people do with their money that is so different from everybody else? To know this, you have to understand three uses of money: 1. As a store of value 2. As an exchange of value 3. As a generator of value

Is physical gold a good investment to add to your portfolio? The value of the dollar used to be directly tied to gold, but that was done away with in the 1970s. Now the US dollar is something known as fiat money, which means it’s a type of government issued currency that is not backed by a precious metal or any other tangible asset or commodity. (This is the kind of financial education you didn’t learn in school but should have.) Too many people out there misapply their metals purchases and treat them like any other investment or trading tool. But that’s just not the case. Gold is a resource. It’s a form of money, by which your very livelihood may depend. And here at TRADEway we show you exactly how to apply gold and silver to your life and to your portfolio the right way. (Check out my course Barter to Currency to learn more.)

Have you ever thought, “I need more money, so I’m going to have to work harder to get it.” You might think the harder you work, the more likely you are to get a promotion or a raise. Or you might think you have to work harder by working more hours so that you can make more money. But working harder doesn’t actually build wealth. What does? The amount of wealth you build will be connected to how much value you produce in the world.
