``Right now, thanks to the profligacy of central banks, real interest rates are negative. So why buy the two-year Treasury, let alone T-bills, rather than gold? Conservative capital preservation strategies are now ensuring only capital destruction.'' -- Dizard also illustrates (unintentionally) near the end why it is prudent to get some firearms shortly after (or even before) getting your first gold.
