One of the most important books i ever read was rich dad poor dad, its one of the most important books ever written, its a must read for everyone.

In Pakistan there is this new rave of hipster Islamic banks , debt based banking in a cloak- now why would i rott my income in a meezan bank current account when meezan bank is itself paying 12% return on investments to companies investing in musharka mubadra accounts ( I have seen the document they fix the return) but for indiviual savers the rates arent fixed and at the end of the day 60% devaluation in dollar and 11 % inflation leaves me far worse off. just see the price of the cars , All the people who are saving are losng including me while the banks sips mohitos at the expense of your hard earned income.

Solution :
Buy dollars , this protects your ass from direct devaluation against pkr , whenever the SB prints money. And people who bought it at 100 and sold it at 168 man, they had a good time. Downside: FedRes pumped like 5tr dollars in these corona times. Back to zero, no major gains but still better than keeping money in current acc

Gold / Silver:
Gold is far beyond auqat right now, ( another sign that when fed cuts rate at 0, gold jumps) plus you cant buy swiss accredited bars here ( rare and 10% premium ) , this brings me to silver , currently it is traded at 15/Oz , after consuming hours of video i think that this is a good place to invest, only downside is i am lacking credible information. i don't know which grade to buy where to buy or are there any better investment avenues

Now i know out there people are investing in these precious metals systematically, so is there any one who can recommend me a good book or can systematically shed light on this matter ? i just want save my ass from the day when dollar crasher or when pkr reaches 200 which is realistic post elections. see the trend .

why be at the mercy of circumstances

Was thinking about the same things today.

Buying a tola of gold or a fraction of some crypto seems like a good bet right now, but I have absolutely no idea about this sort of stuff.

    Is it just me or people lately seem to defend every bad game design decision made by the devs and try to give bullshit reasons for that? Or perhaps it's because I'm on reddit and discord :ROFLMAO:
    There are no such thing as "bad design" bro, its all "artistic vision" now :ROFLMAO:
