[QUOTE="charley, post: 21514900, member: 5372"]Sure. Bernard Baruch: Adventures Of A Wall Street Legend. James Grant. Baruch owned 75,000 OZ. A man that was so important to the U.S. War Effort in 1917 and a key advisor to Roosevelt prior, during and after 29, and the War years, and a close friend of Churchill, was blindsided by the 5 April 33 announcement, and the $20.67/OZ. surrender Order, when it was $29 in Europe. He was right that gold would increase at least 60%. In 35 the price went to 35.00. He advised every POTUS until his death in 1965-including Ike, Kennedy, Johnson. Interestingly, he advised all to stay out of Indochina. His sworn testimony before the Secretary Of the Treasury concerning his gold purchases are a matter of Record, as are the testimony of the Mining Co. that sold him the Bars and the Euro source that sold him the Bars. It was a vindictive attempt to smear him and Roosevelt and Churchill. There are many reasons he does not get much Play. There is no surprise that Edwards skirts the issue; not the least being the Chile connection. Maybe you are unaware of his view of economy. Truth in editing: added a "t" where appropriate.[/QUOTE]
