Gold Hits $1 Million... But It’s Not What You Think

It was always inevitable that we’d get here.

A 400-ounce bar of gold now costs $1 million. Silver is also surging, breaking into all-time highs.

Does this mean that gold and silver are becoming more valuable ?
It’s the dollar collapsing — a slow-motion decline that started over 50 years ago.

1971: The Day the Dollar Lost Its Anchor

On August 15, 1971, President Nixon closed the “Gold Window,” ending the dollar’s convertibility into gold.

Nixon promised, “Your dollar will be worth just as much tomorrow.”

Meanwhile, across the world, China’s People’s Daily declared:
“These measures mark the collapse of the capitalist monetary system with the US dollar as its prop.”

Since then, the U.S. dollar has lost 98.5% of its value measured against gold.

• In 1971, $14,000 bought you a gold bar.

• Today, that bar costs $1,000,000.

Put $14,000 in the bank with interest? Maybe ~$116,000 today.
Put it in gold? $1 million.

Today: The Dollar’s Long Decay

Gold at all-time highs isn’t the end — it’s the symptom.

• Inflation eats away at your savings.

• Every grocery trip costs more.

• Every paycheck buys less.

Stocks can protect wealth. But today the Shiller PE ratio shows valuations far above historical norms. Stocks are historically very expensive.

Real estate is always a reliable hedge, though priced high in many regions.

Gold and Silver have stood the test of time and they are, immune to political promises.

What History Warns

Now you could get angry at the government but that is a waste of time, this same story happened in Rome, Germany and several other historical nations… I think it is just the nature of currencies.

When currencies collapse, consequences follow:

• Poverty, shortages, unrest

• Governments bankrupt and powerless

• Anarchy in extreme cases

But there’s also opportunity. Those who hold real assets not only protect wealth — they sometimes build fortunes as paper money burns.

The Takeaway

Gold and Silver breaking records today are not just “news events.” They are chapters in a much longer story of monetary debasement.

Your wealth is safest in what cannot be printed out of thin air:

• Gold & Silver – real money, unchanged for thousands of years

• Real Estate – tangible, limited, and tied to human need

• Carefully chosen stocks – useful for growth, but only in the “fake money” system

At Profit Punch, we help you profit from the rise in gold, silver, and related securities. But remember — the dollars you make from these trades are still “fake money.”

The real mission is to use those gains wisely: convert them into physical, trustworthy assets that governments cannot debase.

As long as governments keep spending and printing, one thing is certain:
💡 The dollar will keep losing value. The move in Gold and Silver has only just begun — and your future depends on owning what’s real.
