Debt keeps climbing. The dollar keeps falling and losing purchasing power. Most portfolios still aren't built for what comes next.

Join us for a new Real Conversation between Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough and Rick Rule, CEO of ‪@RuleInvestmentMedia‬  founder of Battle Bank and Sprott's largest individual shareholder.

With the national debt eclipsing $40 trillion, 42% of income tax revenue now going toward interest and the Federal Reserve struggling to control the long end of the curve, Rick believes dollar debasement is no longer a forecast. It's the base case.

Keith and Rick will break down the math of America and what it means for gold, silver, uranium, oil and mining equities that many investors still overlook.

Expect decades of hard-won investing discipline distilled into plain terms: buy what's hated, wait for the setup and let patience do the work. Rick will share what he owns, where he's adding and why the biggest risk most investors face sits between their own two ears.
