How an Ignored Constitution Foresaw a Tragic Endgame Matthew Piepenburg
From the Founding Fathers to the great monetary thinkers of history, the message has remained unchanged: when money is no longer anchored to something real, it is ultimately debased.
In this clip, Matthew Piepenburg, Partner at VON GREYERZ, explores the slow death of constitutional money, the warnings we chose to ignore, and why gold remains as relevant today as it was centuries ago.
And yet, since the United States abandoned gold in 1971, the consequences have been both predictable and profound. A system once designed to protect citizens from the excesses of government has gradually evolved into one that enables those very excesses.
Today, with debt at unprecedented levels, currencies under pressure, and trust in financial systems eroding, the question is no longer if the system will be repriced – but how far it will go.
Are you ready to take the next step to protect your loved ones? Watch Matthew’s latest clip to learn everything you need to know about the current monetary cycle and its inevitable conclusion.
Matthew Piepenburg, Commercial Director at Matterhorn Asset Management and co-founder of SignalsMatter.com, has extensive experience in alternative investments, law, and finance, with particular expertise in managed futures, credit and equity investing. He also has years of experience researching, evaluating and investing in alternative investments: hedge funds, private equity vehicles, VC and real estate. Matthew Piepenburg's skills include asset allocation, portfolio management and macro economic analysis. He has written numerous white papers on the long-term distortions of central bank policies here and abroad. He has guest lectured at numerous family office forums, law firms and universities, including Georgetown, Brown, Harvard and Cal State. Matthew Piepenburg is also a published author and regular contributor to The Good Men Project and the author of the Amazon No1 New Release “Rigged to Fail,” which bluntly details the systemic and structural flaws behind central-bank distorted capital markets.
All of these combined monetary distortions are directly responsible for the staggering level of currency debasement ignored in plain sight by a majority of policy makers and investors, which is why Matthew is committed to informing of, as well as addressing solutions to, these systemic fault-lines in the global system. Toward this end, all rivers flow toward precious metals as currency insurance (hence Matterhorn role in Zurich) as well as sober yet actively managed portfolio construction (hence the SignalsMatter service).
