Wall Street Lied About Gold — And Got Caught Red-Handed | Sound Money EP 44

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2363528/fan_mail/new] Goldman Sachs just CUT their year-end gold target from $5,400 to $4,900 — and gold paper price dropped $598 in a week. Meanwhile? Central banks bought a record 244 tonnes in Q1. Poland passed a law forcing physical-only storage. China stacked another 10+ tonnes in May. That's not a sell-off. That's a divergence. And in EP 44, Josh and Zack expose exactly what's happening — paper traders getting margin-called, hedge funds dumping, while the smart money quietly takes physical delivery on sale. Then we shift gears to Sound Principles: Measure What Matters & Iterate. Why entrepreneurs who marry their first idea die — and the Tesla/Optimus, Seven K Coin Drop, and Sound Money fractional-buying playbook for letting your baby grow up. Markets, mindset, money.

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2363528/fan_mail/new] Silver just ripped — and Trump-Xi might be the fuse. In EP 43, Josh and Zack break down the May 2026 summit, the 145%→30% tariff cut that lit silver up, JPMorgan's eye-popping $300 call making the rounds, and why China's AI buildout could turn the structural silver deficit into something nobody's pricing in. Then we shift gears: Legacy over Quick Wins.

Gold Just Found Its Floor? What India's Gold Tax Reveals About Fiat Currency

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2363528/fan_mail/new] India just hiked its gold import duty from 6% to 15% — a 150% spike that's sending shockwaves through the global precious metals market. Why are governments suddenly so desperate to discourage gold ownership? In this episode, Josh and Zack break down what this really means for fiat currency, your savings, and why gold may have just found its floor. Josh and Zack unpack the India gold tax move and connect it to the larger fiat currency story playing out across central banks worldwide. They dig into why governments fear gold ownership in the hands of citizens, what the 150% duty hike signals about confidence in paper money, and how this fits the pattern of countries quietly hoarding metal while taxing their own people out of it. The conversation closes with the business principle of the week: create value first — money follows value, not the other way around. #soundmoneypodcast #soundmoneysoundprinciples #soundmoney #7kmetals Timestamps: 0:00 Welcome to Episode 42 1:15 Why gold may have just found its floor 4:30 India raises gold import duty from 6% to 15% 8:45 What a 150% tax hike really signals 12:20 Central banks vs. citizens — who's allowed to own gold 16:40 The fiat currency endgame nobody talks about 21:10 How to position yourself before the next leg up 26:30 Business principle: create value first, money follows 31:15 Sound Money Wallet and protecting what you build 35:00 Final thoughts and what's coming next This is not financial advice.
