## Resource

In this interview, Kerry Lutz speaks with Rick Rule about why he sold 80% of his physical silver — and why the move isn't bearish. Rick explains that once silver stopped being a "hated" asset, the opportunity changed, leading him to redeploy capital into high-quality silver equities with strong upside if prices remain steady. Rick discusses the nature of precious metals bull markets, where sharp rallies are often followed by steep corrections. He explains why volatility shakes out unprepared investors and why popular silver narratives — including claims about large shorts like JPMorgan Chase — often distract from the basic arithmetic that ultimately drives markets. The conversation also looks at the bigger monetary picture. Rick believes the U.S. dollar could lose significant purchasing power over the next decade, with conditions similar to the 1970s. Precious metals may continue to appreciate over time, but investors should expect a volatile path with multiple corrections along the way. Rick also introduces the upcoming Living the Silver-Backed Lifestyle Report, which focuses on measuring purchasing power instead of price — showing what silver has bought in the past, what it buys today, and how precious metals have helped preserve wealth through inflationary cycles.
