We just finished our yearly audit. What a blast that was! Whenever we get a new auditor, we spend weeks explaining how our business works and often get comments like “you mean your customers don’t drink the wine?? And they don’t have it delivered??”
Then we spend another few weeks providing evidence that the wine really exists in the warehouses.
So on with what we promised.
There’s a degree of urgency in this report and I’m going to get straight to the point.
The global economy is already experiencing hyperinflation.
If you’re not sure what that is, I will explain in more detail later on. I will also show evidence based analysis why we are entering hyperinflation on a global scale.
If you don’t enjoy reading long emails, here are the main points:
-
Commodities are increasing around the world at exponential rates.
-
Currencies, You can not see them weakening or strengthening enough to call it hyperinflation. That’s because ALL currencies are weakening in tandem!
-
Obama printed 800 Billion in 2009 after the ’08 crash.
-
Trump and Biden printed 3 trillion in the last 2 stimulus packages.
-
Every government in the world has been printing excessive amounts of money to manage the economy around the pandemic…
A few months ago, Biden was talking about a 3 trillion stimulus followed by a 10 trillion stimulus!
He is NOT alone, virtually all the governments in the world are pushing for more stimulus. It really is the only tool they have to try to stimulate the economy.
But suddenly Biden is not talking about these huge stimulus packages anymore.
– Wonder why? Because his team of economists see that hyperinflation is already here.
Ask your friends or business partners if their business is doing well or badly at the moment? How many of them are doing well?
Our business has QUADRUPLED in the last six months. Yes QUADRUPLED ! And that is NOT normal, we didn’t even spend any money on advertising..
I spend a lot of my time talking with close friends who are very wealthy investors, and everyone I talk to is doing extremely well. In fact, I’ve yet to find someone who is telling me they are struggling financially right now in this economy.
And the 1000’s of percent growth in Cryptocurrency? How do we explain that? The money has to come from somewhere doesn’t it?
The best way to combat hyperinflation is to buy Assets. Because assets increase during hyperinflation.
NOT the money you’re keeping in the bank.
Your cash is devaluing and becoming WORTHLESS every day longer you keep it as cash! We have the illusion of getting richer, when in reality we are becoming poorer.
So the best solution is to invest in fine and rare wine and whisky, because it is one of the best hedges you can make against hyperinflation and the current economical situation that we are going through. This wine investment market is already started to boom. We know because we are part of it.
Real estate is another good asset to hedge hyperinflation, but the real estate market has been going crazy in almost every country I have looked at.
Remember I have investors in Asia, Europe, Middle East and America. And everyone tells me their property market is hot right now.
Right time to buy real estate? Probably not, but getting into debt is a good thing right now. As cash becomes worthless, your debt becomes cheaper. (I just dislike debt, which is a personal opinion not an analysis).
Of course you may think we are biased, asking you to consider wine right now, but to be fair, we are so busy that I would rather not take on more business to maintain our service level.
But if I didn’t send you this email and next year you see wine prices up so high that you cant afford them. Well….I wouldn’t be doing my job properly, would I?
The key piece of advice here is to buy assets.
But don’t go buying commodity futures unless you are really an expert in commodity trading as its easy to lose a huge amount of money. I know, because I have been there many years ago.
Commodity prices are already sky rocketing out of all proportions. Let us hope there is a plan to curb this inflation of asset prices.
Wine or whisky, are going to bode well over the next 1-2 years. Not to mention the growth potential is huge.
Wine and whisky are some of the few markets where prices have remained stable since the start of the pandemic.
They havent gone crazy high and they haven’t fallen, but they have been appreciating in value.
Which opens up a great opportunity on the upside for wine and whisky to increase substantially.
Scroll down for the evidence.
Chart above: U.S money supply 8 Year Chart
- In 2020 U.S money supply was 325 million per month.
- In 2021 its risen to nearly 600 million a month.. and is rising fast compared to the last 8 years.
- The USA is not alone, all governments are doing the same in hopes to stimulate the economy post pandemic.
- In one year, the US Dollar has weakened against the GBP from 1.2 to 1.398 – More than a 15% depreciation in the dollar against the UK pound.
- But the UK economy has suffered badly from the pandemic.
- The assumption is that the US Dollar has weakened due to the fed printing excessive amounts of US Dollar compared to the UK.
- Not from the UK economy strengthening.
- A good example of what happens during hyperinflation.

The solution to this problem is Investing in stable assets
- Wine and Whisky investing has been around for centuries. It has overcome many recessions and wars in history. There is a reason why it always succeeds. Simple supply and demand, the oldest form of micro economics, used since the 1890s.
- Buy real estate and remain in debt. Don’t try to pay off your mortgage during this period.
- Debt becomes cheaper since money is cheap with record low interest rates that expect to remain here for several years.
- Invest in a hard asset managed fund.
- Invest in Crypto Currency. Even if its a small amount, put something into crypto currency. Because the growth of this space is so phenomenal that even a small investment could pay off handsomely for you in the future. It will also act as a hedge in your portfolio of cash and stocks.
- I’ve been buying crypto since 2012. Its been an amazing journey.
