Comment your questions for Dominic.
With gold, Bitcoin, and other assets often pitched as “hedges” against state overreach, where do you see the most realistic opportunity for ordinary people to protect their wealth over the next decade?
Although "gold" is considered by many to be Spandau ballets finest song I am not sure why you think it has had such a huge impact on society? What is the "secret history" behind the song that you discuss in your book? ☺️
