What I appreciate the most is your economic insight, especially when it's contrarian. (Now there's a word that's getting overused a lot!) But truthfully, I don't need yet another pundit nodding in unison about, for example, that "BRICS is about to destroy the dollar." You have really, really good instincts about how the world actually works, which is the reason I decided to throw some money your way each month. (You're one of only two substacks I actually pay for.)

Your take on politics is less useful to me, both because there's very little one old man (me) can do to stop America's slide down the tubes, and because there are a gazillion other sites that focus on politics 24/7. I spend about an hour each morning scanning the headlines on magatracker.com (conservative aggregator site), but I rarely read more than 2 or 3 linked articles. After all, how many rah-rah Trump, Meatball Ron, Demented Joe, and crack-head Hunter stories have anything new to say?

I scan your linked headlines but rarely click on them, because I've seen many of those headlines already on Zero Hedge or the Dollar Collapse "best of the web" aggregator site. Occasionally I'll see one from a source I don't scan, and if it sounds interesting, I'll read it. But I come here for YOUR opinion, not links to your source articles.

And finally, thanks for putting up with my humor in the comment section.
