H, That is a great write up about Hyperinflation in Germany. I have been using When Money Dies as my chief reference, but just ordered Turroni's book. I agree with Silver that a study of the fall of the Pound Sterling as the world reserve currency would be a good study indeed., so have ordered CD's recommendation. Be it known CD, that I emailed Jim Rogers himself asking if he could recommend a good book on this subject, and he emailed back stating he did not know of any. This is a good group we've got here. The times ahead could still be rather tumultuous. Keep studying and keep writing. As a group, we have a very good chance of all holding together through this thing and making it safely to the other side. Bull
