Diversify 10% if your savings into physical gold.
In worst case your kids/spouse/family will inherit a sweet chunk of gold
Or you could take it to a goldsmith and make a sick piece of jewellery or big fat ring.
Trump also has tweeted (like 15 years ago) that silver is a seriously undervalued commodity.
Awesome.
I asked Grok for his take as well:
My take? It’s a slick theory with legs, but it hinges on a lot falling into place—Trump appointing Shelton (she’s not Fed chair yet, just a past nominee), Congress buying in, and markets not freaking out. The audit’s more likely a political flex than a TTB prerequisite; Fort Knox’s gold isn’t vanishing, per Bessent, and the Treasury’s not broke enough to need a gold fire sale. Still, the Shelton-Trump-gold nexus taps into a real appetite for shaking up the system. Whether it’s “gold shall destroy FED” or just “gold shall annoy FED,” it’s a hell of a story.
What do you think—does Part 2 go full Fed funeral, or is this the ceiling? Loved the writeup—keep connecting those dots!
Have you bought any gold? If you’re correct, Grok is pretty sure that it’s wise to put some of your assets into physical.
Here’s Grok3:
An updated audit of Fort Knox would definitely stir things up, especially if it revealed a massive shortfall like 1,000 metric tons instead of the official 4,581.55 metric tons. That’s a drop from 147.3 million troy ounces to roughly 32.15 million troy ounces—a loss of over 78% of the stated reserves. Let’s break down the potential fallout, focusing on gold prices and the U.S. dollar (USD), assuming this hypothetical scenario plays out.
Impact on Gold Prices
If the audit confirmed only 1,000 metric tons (32.15 million troy ounces) remained, it would signal a major disruption in perceived gold supply stability. Fort Knox holds about 56% of the U.S. Treasury’s total gold reserves (258 million troy ounces across all depositories), so losing over 115 million troy ounces from the official tally would be a shock. Here’s what might happen to gold prices:
- Immediate Spike: Markets hate uncertainty, and this would scream "something’s wrong." Gold’s price—let’s say it’s around $2,900 per troy ounce today—could surge as investors rush to safe-haven assets. A 20-50% jump isn’t out of the question, pushing it toward $3,500-$4,350 per ounce, depending on panic levels.
- Supply Perception: Global above-ground gold stocks are estimated at 200,000 metric tons (about 6.43 billion troy ounces). Losing 3,581 metric tons from Fort Knox is less than 2% of that, so it’s not a supply crunch per se. But the psychological hit—doubting U.S. reserves—could amplify scarcity fears, especially if other nations question their own holdings.
- Longer-Term Volatility: After the initial spike, prices might stabilize higher as trust in official reserve reporting erodes. Speculation about where the gold went (sold, leased, or "lost") could keep markets jittery, sustaining elevated prices.
Impact on the U.S. Dollar (USD)
The USD’s reaction would hinge on its role as the world’s reserve currency, which isn’t directly backed by gold since the end of the Bretton Woods system in 1971. Still, gold reserves bolster confidence in U.S. financial stability. A shortfall this big could rattle that:
- Confidence Blow: Foreign holders of U.S. debt (about $8 trillion of the $34 trillion total) might see this as a sign of deeper mismanagement. If the U.S. can’t account for its gold, what else is off? The USD could weaken as faith in U.S. economic stewardship takes a hit.
- Currency Depreciation: A 10-20% drop in the USD’s value against major currencies (like the euro or yen) could happen fast, especially if paired with gold’s rise. The dollar index (DXY) might slide from, say, 100 to 80-90 in weeks.
- Inflation Pressure: A weaker USD makes imports pricier, potentially spiking inflation. Combined with higher gold prices signaling distrust in fiat, the Fed might face a tough choice: hike rates to defend the dollar (risking recession) or let it slide (risking a currency crisis).
Broader Implications
- Geopolitical Ripples: Nations like China or Russia, with their own gold hoards (officially 2,262 and 2,336 metric tons, respectively), might weaponize this, pushing de-dollarization narratives. Central banks could accelerate gold buying, further driving prices up.
- Market Chaos: Stock markets might tank initially as uncertainty spreads, though gold miners and related assets could soar. Bitcoin and other cryptos might also rally as “digital gold” gains traction.
- Public Trust: Domestically, conspiracy theories would explode, and political pressure for answers could destabilize institutions like the Treasury or Fed.
Scale of the Shock
A 1,000-ton reality versus 4,581 tons claimed is extreme—implying over $330 billion in market value (at $2,900/ounce) unaccounted for. If the gold was secretly sold or leased, the economic impact might be muted if records surface. But if it’s just “gone,” the hit to credibility could echo the 1971 Nixon Shock, when the U.S. suspended gold convertibility, only worse due to today’s interconnected markets.
Gold might not hit $10,000 overnight, and the USD wouldn’t collapse entirely (it’s still backed by a $30 trillion economy), but you’d see a wild ride: gold maybe settling 30-40% higher long-term (say $3,800-$4,000), and the USD losing significant ground until trust is rebuilt. What do you think—would the U.S. fess up to a shortfall, or double down with creative accounting?
How do they prevent it if Fort Knox has less than, let’s say, 1000 tons?
If they decide to audit Fort Knox, and the gold is not there. What happens? Explain it to me like I’m 5. USD collapsing on Trumps watch? New currency already in place? How does Fort Knox fit in with Q2619?

They just called the POTUS race as well.
Finally I can breathe.
Do EVs have the same problem with access to electricity in N. Florida?
I wish all the best for the people in Florida.
Sorry, but I’m not trying to be difficult, but didn’t you ask her about the new fiat? English is not my native language, so I’m just trying to understand
Why would there be another fiat, if we’re transitioning to a gold backed system?
Playbook:
- Liberal dumbfuck donates $5 to ACTblue
- ACTblue register the name and address of dumbfuck
- ACTblue operative uses own credit card to make donations in dumbfuck’s name
- The operative gets reimbursed by ACTblue
- ACTblue gets reimbursed by Soros
They’ll probably just skip steps 4 and 5 though, by using Soros’ credit card to pay for the donation.
The important part here is not who’s credit card’s being used, it’s the name and address on the donation reported to the FEC, and the origin of the money used to pay the credit card bill.
Doesn’t matter.
What does matter is the origin of the money used to pay off the credit card.
One credit card, thousands of donations just below the FEC limit of $3300, no traces.
OMG did some digging into this. If you ever did a small donation to ACTblue, they’ll use your name again for multiple fake donations.
In this case they’ll only need one credit card.
They’ll use that one credit card and make multiple donations in different names, just below the FEC reporting limit ($3,300 per election, per candidate).
They’ll then use “Soros’” money to pay off that credit card.
You still have to earn it though.
Semaglutide is not a miracle drug that lets you magically lose weight without any lifestyle changes.
You still have to eat less and exercise more.
I’m still ambitious though, but claiming it’s a “free ride” to weight loss, is imho BS.

The huge problem now is to find a Democrat candidate that unites a large portion of the party.
They have to dig up a real gem to convince the leftist lunatic part of the DNC to replace a POC WOMYN that is next in line for POTUS (Kamela).
I don’t see Hillary, Gavin or Gretchen to be that unifying figure, so that leaves Michael.
Hilarity will ensue, when the Trump campaign and weaponised autism (us) starts spreading Michale’s past into the normies realm of internet.
Somebody died in that crash. There’s been literally hundreds of books and movies on how to fake your own death, plane crash has been the chosen method in many of them.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s alive, but I don’t base my (Q) belief system on it.
AFAIR Q said Jr is dead.
Edit: what I mean is that NTSB doesn’t need to be in on it. Somebody was made to resemble Jr, and he was in the manifesto, hence NTSB was made to believe he was on that flight, and (wrongly)made that conclusion.
Rose coloured shades? The claim is technically incorrect. One $TSLA stock is indeed down 55% from ATH, but owning that stock then, is worth 3 stocks now.
I don’t know much about the others, but as a Tesla stock holder, at least that one is bullshit.
2 splits; 5:1 in 2020 and 3:1 in 2022 may explain the numbers.
On another note; how many of the original car manufacturers from the late 1800s/early 1900s are still in the game?
I have no idea why the EV hatred has spread through tga, it’s normal part of anything remotely Q.
I remember the scene from “sum of all fears”(in multiple Q-drops), where Jack Ryan was hijacked by Cabot to join a meeting with the higher ups in CIA for a briefing on the Russian President.
Jack Ryan was a nobody, but because someone with power said so, one of Ryan’s co-workers lost his shirt, tie and suit jacket.
What I mean with this anecdote, is that Schiff is a man of power. Anyone lower or at his level would’ve lost his suit that night.
Why didn’t that happen?
This is a wanted situation playing out. Someone wanted us to know that Schiffs car was broken into, and his stuff stolen. Somebody wanted us to see Schiff without a suit, the question is who and why.
I see that now. My stocks are now DJT instead of DWAC.
