READER QUESTION: “What Happens If The Dollar Crashes?”
This is going to be a bit different from what I normally do, but I hope it helps a lot of people!
I’ve been talking a lot about the likelihood of the US Dollar crashing in the future.
In fact, for a while it felt like just me and Bo Polny talking about it, but just a few days ago Warren Buffett joined our chorus, saying this:
Warren Buffett: “The US Dollar Is Going To Hell…Get Out Now!”
And I actually had a reader send me an email recently (name and email address withheld for privacy purposes) but here is the message they sent me:
I thought instead of just responding to that one email, I would respond here in this article for the benefit of everyone.
Sound good?
Because what did they always tell us in school....if you have a question, raise your hand and ask it, because chances are a lot of other people have the same question and they're just too shy to ask.
So I'm answering this for everyone.
First, a quick disclaimer: I'm not a financial advisor and I can't give anyone personalized financial advice. I'm just a reporter and a person who finds all of this stuff fascinating. So I can report on what I see out there in the news, like I did when I reported on Warren Buffett's recent statements. I can tell you what I see, and I can tell you what dots I'm connecting in my head. From there, each of you need to make your own decisions and speak with our own advisors. Sound fair?
The first thing I want to say in response to this email is just "Well done!" Wow, at age 79 you seem incredibly sharp and extremely financially savvy! Bitcoin, XRP, Silver, cash and annuities is fantastic!
So my first comment is I think you're doing great!
But to directly address the question, what happens if the dollar crashes, let's start right here:
The truth of the matter is the dollar has been "crashing" every single year since the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913.
The chart above shows you a visual representation of that.
Basically, if you saved a dollar from 1913, it would now be worth about 3 or 4 cents!
In 2023, the value of $1 from 1913 is roughly $0.03 to $0.04 in purchasing power.
So:
Your 2023 dollar buys what 3 or 4 cents could buy in 1913.
That’s a loss of over 96% in the dollar’s value.
That's a stunning loss!
It's why even in the last 30 years, you've seen asset prices absolutely skyrocket.
Think about the price of homes where you live.
I remember in the 1990s, a really nice neighborhood of homes in our area would push into the $300,000 range. We're talking a Country Club type area situated around a beautiful lake on massive size lots.
Today $300,000 will not even buy you a starter home, and that same Country Club type area is over $1,000,000 per home.
Did the houses change?
Not really.
It's just that the Dollar lost more and more purchasing power so it is literally "worth less".
In other words, when the Dollar is stronger and has more value, you don't need as many of them to buy the same thing, but when the strength and value of that Dollar go down (like shown in the chart), you need more and more of them to buy the very same asset, eventually leading to the "wheelbarrows of cash to buy a loaf of bread" situation that actually happened in the Weimar Republic:
The collapse of the Weimar Republic’s currency in the early 1920s is one of the most infamous examples of hyperinflation in modern history — a real-life warning of what can happen when a government monetizes its debt out of control.
Here’s a simple breakdown:
? What Was the Weimar Republic?
It was Germany’s government after World War I (1919–1933).
Crippled by war reparations from the Treaty of Versailles, political instability, and economic chaos.
? What Caused the Hyperinflation?
Massive war debts: Germany had borrowed heavily to fund WWI.
Reparations: The Treaty of Versailles demanded Germany pay billions in gold.
Money printing: Instead of raising taxes or cutting spending, Germany printed money to pay its debts and fund government operations.
1923 Ruhr Crisis: France and Belgium occupied the Ruhr (industrial region) when Germany defaulted on reparation payments. Germans went on strike in protest—so the government printed even more money to pay them not to work.
? What Happened to the Currency?
January 1919: 1 U.S. dollar = 9 German marks
July 1922: 1 USD = 493 marks
January 1923: 1 USD = 17,000 marks
November 1923: 1 USD = 4.2 trillion marks
The German mark became so worthless that:
People carried cash in wheelbarrows just to buy a loaf of bread
Kids used bills as toys or wallpaper
Workers were paid twice a day, so they could run out and spend their wages before prices doubled again
Did a loaf of bread suddenly become massively more valuable?
No, it was always just a loaf of bread.
But the money became worth less and nearly "worthless".
Does that make sense?
So to directly answer the reader's question from that email, what happens if the US Dollar collapses?
Something similar to this, although I expect our officials will do everything they can to soften the blow.
The flip side of that equation is if that were to happen, anything priced in US Dollars would likely also hyper-inflate, meaning the price of Gold and Silver would likely go sky high.
Are Gold and Silver suddenly more valuable?
No, but priced in Dollars they will look very different.
Stocks, Crypto and Real Estate would all also likely go sky high.
I'll reiterate my disclaimer one more time: I'm not a financial advisor, I don't have a degree in economics or finance, and I can't give any of you personalized financial information. I'm just telling you what I see in the news and what I study from history.
I would also encourage everyone to not make any drastic moves.
Talk to your family, talk to your financial advisor, and then make the best decision for you.
As for me personally, it seems to me like Gold and Silver have always stood the test of time, especially in crashes or currency collapses. And I personally like crypto (Bitcoin and XRP), but that's not right for everyone.

And in related news, here's more on what Warren Buffett just said....
I'm not a financial expert, but I think it's safe to say he is.
And he just said this:
Warren Buffett: "The US Dollar Is Going To Hell...Get Out Now!"
The US Dollar is about to crash!
Get your money OUT of the banks and OUT of US dollars!
That sounds a lot like what Bo Polny and yours truly have been telling you, but today it's not me or Bo.
Today that message comes from The Oracle of Omaha himself, Warren Buffett.
In his recent shareholder meeting in Omaha, NE, Buffett stunned the world by saying he believes the US Dollar is "going to Hell" and you should own something other than the US Dollar or things tied to the US Dollar.

FULL TRANSCRIPT:
Warren Buffett (The Oracle of Omaha):
And obviously we wouldn't want to be owning anything that we thought was in a currency that was really going to hell.
And that's the big thing we worry about with the United States currency.I mean, the tendency of a government to want to debase its currency over time — there's no system that beats that.You can pick dictators, you can pick representatives, you can do anything,but with the people there will be a push toward weaker currencies.
And of course, that is — I mentioned very briefly in the annual report —that the fiscal policy is what scares me in the United States because it's made the way it is.And all the motivations are to doing a lot of things that can cause trouble with money.But that's not limited to the United States — it's all over the world.
And some places it gets out of control.They devalue at rates that are breathtaking — and that's continued.I mean, people can study economics and you can have all kinds of arrangements,but in the end, if you've got people that control the currency,you can issue paper money — and you will.
Or you can engage in clipping currencies like they used to centuries ago...There will always be people — it's the nature of their job.I'm not singling them out as particularly evil or anything like that,but the natural course of government is to make the currency worth less over time.
And that's got important consequences.And it's very hard to build checks and balances into the system to keep that from.

Folks, I don't know how much clearer I can make it.
I'm not a financial advisor and I can't give you personalized financial advice, but I can report on the news and I can use my own brain and what I'm seeing is smart people like Warren Buffett fleeing the stock market and fleeing the US Dollar, and that's why you see things like Gold and Silver surging and the same for Crypto.
Maybe you could use this?
FINALLY! Safe, Secure, Insured, Regulated Crypto…Here’s Exactly What You Need To Do
Folks, can you see all the dots connecting?
I sure can.
Everything I've been talking about for the last 5+ years is all converging right now, it's actually incredible to watch!
It ties in perfectly to this:
Have You Heard About “Operation Sandman”? It’s Set To ‘Crush The US Dollar’
Remember when I warned you about all of this?
Looks like we were right again!
Warren knows what's coming and he's getting OUT of stocks and OUT of the US Dollar.
Got Gold?
Got Silver?
Got Crypto?

The Warren Buffett Indicator? Cash Hoard PERFECTLY PREDICTS Stock Market Crash?
The Warren Buffett Indicator? Cash Hoard PERFECTLY PREDICTS Stock Market Crash?
This is really interesting....
We all know the "Oracle of Omaha" is a rare unicorn in the investing world.
Perhaps originally a man who outsmarted Wall Street, he is also famous (or infamous) for getting sweetheart deals during the 2008 Stock Market Crash.
Remember that?
He coughed up a few billion to bail out some "too big to fail banks" and in return basically received a guarantee of his "investment" from the Federal Government.
If you or I had done that, they might just call it insider trading, but for Uncle Warren it was deemed "patriotic".
But that's not the main focus of this article.
The main focus is something I'm now calling the "Warren Buffett Indicator".
This short video below explains it in video format, but basically as Warren Buffett's cash hoard grows, it almost always seems to top out right before a huge stock market crash hits....
And guess who's there to scoop up all the great assets for pennies on the dollar?
Uncle Warren.
Look, I'm not suggesting he's doing anything wrong, not at all.
Perhaps he's just really, really smart and really, really patient and disciplined.
More power to him.
But the indicator appears to be dead on.
Take a look:

The scariest part is right at the end....
Look at this:
When people keep telling you the next crash is going to be much worse than the 2008 crash (which for most of us was by far the biggest of our lifetimes), this is what they mean...
Look how his cash hoard dwarfs 2008.
The size and scope of what is coming is going to dwarf anything you've seen before.
It has to, the amount of money printed since then is astronomical.
It's what Bo Polny told my on my show earlier this week....
Look at this chart and the chart above and tell me if they don't look extremely similar:
It's all connected to 1971 when they removed us from the Gold Standard.....
And the years that followed when they printed magic money to infinity and the money machine went BRRRRRRRRR on overdrive!
You know how growing up your parents would say money doesn't grow on trees?
To these people it does!
It grows on printers, they just turn on the printer and out spits new money.....as much as they want!
Now it's just extra zeroes in a computer program, but it used to be actual printing of greenbacks.
Same difference.
Speaking of, have you seen this?
Do you know what happens if we suddenly shocked the world and went BACK to a Gold Standard?
This:
“Gold Revaluation” Incoming? Price Could Be $10,000-60,000 Per Ounce!
Make sure you read that.
Bookmark it, print it out, save it and study it, because it could be life-changing very soon.
Or life "saving".
And speaking of Bo Polny, here's the latest from Bo, which you might find lines up almost perfectly with everything above:
Bo Polny Returns: Emergency Update -- November 11
Bo Polny was back on my show today and this is officially back-to-back emergency updates.
He was on just two weeks ago with an urgent alert and things are only getting worse (or better, depending on your perspective).
We usually touch base once a month but because of how crazy things are right now we had Bo back on today for an update.
We discuss why in detail, but November 11th (this weekend) is a huge date circled on Bo's calednar.
That is this weekend, and they LOVE to launch big things over weekends.
Black Monday follows?
Speaking of Black Monday, yes we absolutely discuss October 30th.
Oh, and Monday/Tuesday are also shaping up to be HUGE for Bitcoin.
I'll just let you watch for yourself here on Rumble:

Ok, Bo's links above will get you all set for crypto!
You're in good hands there.
But what about Gold and Silver?
If you want Gold and Silver, I have you covered there too.
Keep reading for the hookup...including for a way to get GOLD without paying anything out of pocket! Yes, really!
But first, here's the most important part you have to understand -- make sure you get PHYSICAL gold and silver.
Not paper traded garbage on the stock exchanges that isn't backed by anything.
Don't touch that stuff.
I have two special hook-ups for you.
Both involve PHYSICAL gold and silver.
Because if you do NOTHING else, make sure you own "physical" gold and silver, not paper contracts.
The paper contracts (like stock ticker SLV and GLD) could very well go POOF one day and disappear or go to zero, because they're not actually backed by the gold and silver they claim to represent.
It's a massive game of musical chairs out there and when the music stops (and I think it will stop soon...) people who only own paper might find themselves owning something not worth the paper it's literally written on.
Now...WHERE do you get physical gold and silver and how do you know it's real and safe?
And that you're getting the best price?
Oh, and how about personal one-on-one real customer service?
You know, like you were some Big Wig millionaire at Goldman Sachs who could just call their personal banker and get help?
That's what I'm about to tell you.
I have two killer connections for you...
The first is for purchasing gold and silver bullion.
That means bulk bars.
That's the cheapest and most economical way to do it, to stretch your dollar into as much gold and silver as possible.
The website is called [DELETED] and when you see my logo in the top left-hand corner, you'll know you're in the right place.
You'll get a personal phone call with Ira Bershatsky (or someone on his team) and they will work with you free of charge for as long as needed to answer any questions you have and get you taken care of.
How about that!
You don't see that much anymore, but Ira and his team pride themselves on good old-fashioned real customers service:
No sales pitch, just real, actual help.
And the best prices you will find.
Here's the only disclaimer I will give you: because they do pride themselves on dedicated service, it might take a few days before you get a phone call back. Just be patient.
Good things come to those who wait!
You can contact Ira and [DELETED] here.
Ok, that was #1.
Now I want to tell you about option #2.
An equally great company, I am so happy to be working with these guys.
This next company is called Genesis Gold and this is for people who want to purchase real physical gold or silver in their IRAs (Investment Retirement Accounts).
You know what the beauty of that is?
TAX FREE baby!
I'm not a tax advisor, but that's a general oversimplification.
Never pay more taxes than you are legally required to pay.
And that's why I love getting gold and silver in my IRA (and why I hold a large chunk in an IRA myself!).
There's so much to love about Genesis Gold, starting with the fact they are proudly and un-ashamedly Christina!
They call it "Faith-Driven Stewardship" and they put it right on the homepage of their website along with a quote from Ezekiel:
Wealth Preservation With Gold & Silver –
The Genesis Gold IRA
By your wisdom and your understanding you have made wealth for yourself, and have gathered Gold and Silver into your treasuries – EZEKIEL 28:4
Genesis Gold Group believes the Bible gives clues on how man-made currencies (paper money) represent instability, and a lack of virtue and encourages living wastefully in excess.
Conflicts have beleaguered us since the dawn of civilization, and they can all be encapsulated into one battle. The battle is between currency, man-made paper, and gold and silver — the two precious metals found in our Earth’s crust, sent to us by our Lord to use as money. Man-made currency always leads nations down the path to increased war, greed, and ultimate collapse. History has shown that abandoning gold and silver has always been a bad idea. Gold and Silver enforce discipline, nurture self-constraint, self-reliance, and balance, and lead to confidence, a restrained government, and a more stable foreign policy.
Genesis Gold Group believes in empowering faith-driven stewardship with Gold & Silver are an integral part of a balanced portfolio. Protecting your finances with precious metals has never been more crucial during these trying times.
With a combined 50-plus years in the precious metals industry, let your Genesis gold and silver experts guide you through the simplicity of asset protection and growth with our Genesis Gold IRA.
Sincerely,
Genesis Gold Group
Empowering Faith-Driven Stewardship
Oh....and they're VERY good at what they do.
You also get physical gold and silver with Genesis, believe it or not! The gold and silver is purchased for you (in whatever combination of coins and bars you prefer, a picture taken and sent to you, and then stored safely in a vault for you!
I love what these guys are doing.
Here's more on why gold and silver in your IRA are so powerful:
You can contact Genesis Gold here.
They are also very backed up with record demand, so you may have to wait a bit, but someone WILL get in touch with you for personal customer service and assistance!
Tell 'em Noah sent ya!
Oh, and did you know Genesis is recommended by SUPERMAN himself?
It's true.
Superman himself, Clark Kent -- Dean Cain -- came on my show a few weeks ago and we broke it all down:
Watch here:
Stay safe!
Make sure you can weather the storm when it hits!
Because the storm always hits eventually, doesn't it?
As for me and my house, we will be ready. ?
