On June 21, 2024, on the Money Metals Podcast, host Mike Maharrey and Mises Institute President Tom DiLorenzo discussed the real beneficiaries of the inflation continually created by the Federal Reserve, how our monetary policy harms savers and the elderly, why gold and silver should be viewed not necessarily as an investment but more as insurance, and why everyone should own this financial insurance.

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard.

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
