How can I argue with him on that count? He argues for purchases of enduring value now (such as survivalist gear and accoutrements) forgetting, however, that the government is quit capable of taxing literally anything - and he must surely be aware of property taxes? The only possible way through the muddle is to invest in something that is growing in value at a greater rate than taxation. Now that is an honest challenge. But over the next two decades, my thought is that the recovering price of gold - it has been knocked down far too low - will outpace even the rate of growth of governemnt taxation. If I am wrong, please come and visit me at in my tent (at least Susan has researched tent purchases, and we will have a good one).Laurence Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16512608792667325309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19263903.post-42477681495770693352007-02-16T00:32:00.000-06:002007-02-16T00:32:00.000-06:00RRSPs are a good idea.
