Weekend Chillout - Insensitive

At a time of year when we are meant to be enjoying summer/winter holidays it is amazing how many people there are that want to be insensitive. This week's Chillout features the stunningly attractive and sweet sounding Sydney singer Borbala Bodonyi (aka Bobo) performing the best cover I have ever heard of the Jann Arden classic. For those in Sydney if you want to hear Bobo live she regularly appears in social clubs as part of a two person combo, like her facebook page to find out details for her upcoming gigs. On a personal note I was fortunate enough to meet Bobo (she is the backing singer closest to the sax player) at Frances Madden's recent album launch, my photos of that night are below.

Gold finishes the year with a gain of 7.7%

Australian dollar gold prices ended the year with a 7.7% gain over the 12 months. A better return than any term deposit on offer in AUD, and you can't eat a term deposit.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to all my readers, hoping that 2015 brings you much success.

Keiser Report: De-Fiatisation of the World

From RT

Published on Dec 27, 2014

In this episode of the Keiser Report, Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert discuss the ‘Give Us Back Our Gold’ movement across Europe as governments seek to have their gold held domestically as fear spreads about the integrity of our fiat and debt world. Max describes the de-fiatisation of the world as the American empire makes way for the emerging power of China.

In the second half Max interviews Sandeep Jaitly (@Bullionbasis) of FeketeResearch.com about negative GOFO rates, earning free fiat with your gold and taking us back to the Dark Ages with Quantitative Easing.
