This interview is hot off the press and was recorded yesterday. Rick was in Toronto for PDAC, the world's largest mining conference. If you have any suggestions on who else we should have on the channel, let us know in the comments below. Thank you!

This whole trade war situation is getting out of hand. Every time new tariffs get announced, prices go up, and it feels like regular people are the ones paying the price. Groceries, gas, even basic goods are more expensive than ever.

The Ukrainian economy impacts the U.S. through global trade, energy markets, and geopolitical stability. Disruptions in Ukraine's agricultural exports can raise global food prices, affecting U.S. consumers, while its role in energy transit influences global energy markets. U.S. support for Ukraine, including financial aid and military assistance, also affects federal spending and foreign policy priorities.

Rick is a great guest, worldly, wise, humerous and super generous with his knowledge. Thanks so much Rick and Jimmy for the interview!

[DoomsDayInvestor]

People do not realize how bad shape the us government is in. We have $36 trillion in debt in nominal terms and if you belive Rick it is significantly higher. The only solution is a major reset the size of which we have not seen before.

[jimallen]

Thanks for the interview Jimmy! Always love hearing Rick's unfiltered view. We need more of this 👍👍👍

Buffet's complaint about gold is that is doesn't produce income. Neither does Berkshire Hathaway pay a dividend.

Great inteview style, Mr. Connors. I appreciate that you ask direct questions, and then let your guest answer. Rick Rule is such an informative guest. Always appreciate his wisdom.

[ThomasLuke-uv]

History is repeating:
- pandemic
- inflation crisis
- trade war
- global economic crisis
- fascists

Do we now have to do this every century and which stock can I invest in I’m tired of losing?

[dannymcneely]

I watch many other economic channels but yours is in my top 3 for video production and quality of guests.

[Treecroc]

Articulate Rick Rule, is as smooth as butter in the way he projects his thoughts and beliefs. Own PMs and sleep easy.

[iamjason]

Hats off to Rick for being a crazy rich person but not insane enough to think the current fiscal policy + tariffs would help U.S economy long terms, most billionaires only wanted low interest rates without giving second thoughts on hyper inflations and the consequence's of high unemployment rates.

[bullishforgold]

Gold is the solution to all government mismanagement and political malpractice 🙏

[YellowLab]

Superb explanation of $136 Trillion of funded and unfunded liabilities Mr Rule. And inflationary “solution” as the politicians’ way of dealing with it. Rather than say declaring default/bankruptcy.

[FaithnotesCo]

Love Rick’s mathematical rigor in explaining things

[paulvarey]

Great interview. Really interesting and very timely.

[SavvyInvestor-zv]

James so glad I found this channel! The production quality and questioning is some of the best I have seen. You are a close second to David Rubenstein :)

[deeeeeeps]

Your interviews are very good I don't understand how your channel hasn't exploded. You listen while asking great detailed questions.

[Tyler-xcpr]

Tariffs are a smoke screen for GDP drops and job losses that were going to happen anyways. ...Just one more month to flatten the tariff curve. Just one more month, we promise... Do your part and buy more expensive products at a time you can't afford it. The beatings will continue until the GDP improves.

[Healthy-social]

Good discussion... mostly unbiased... however i would say little bit hesitant of highlighting damage to USD
