Making that decision before it is too late is likely to determine your financial and also general wellbeing for the rest of your life! 

If you have already joined that exclusive group of 0.5% of global financial assets which are invested in precious metals, you understand what is coming. 

But if you belong to the group that neither understands precious metals nor holds any, it might be worthwhile to continue reading.

FROM A DEBT BASED WEST TO A COMMODITY BASED EAST AND SOUTH

As the Western Empire is breaking up currently, the Eastern & Southern Empire is gaining ever more significance. More than 30 countries want to join the BRICS and many also the SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organisation). There is also the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) which exists since 2014 and consists of several ex Soviet Union States. 

The enlarged group will consist of more than 40 countries and represent around 2/3 of global population and 1/3 of global GDP. As I have written about in the article "A disorderly reset with gold revalued by multiples", this is the area which will experience the fastest growth in coming decades as the West gradually declines/collapses under its own deficits and debt burden together with political and moral decay. 

The Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov has just announced that Iran will join the SCO on July 4  and that Belarus will also become a full member. There is a virtual SCO meeting on July 4 chaired by India. It seems like more than a coincidence that the meeting takes place on the US Independence Day!
