Given Dr. Ron Paul’s latest video (Figure 1.1.) where he claims that millions of investors will be wiped out in the coming financial collapse

A 25% allocation is sufficient to offset financial carnage.
Younger investors are advised to increase the allocation percentage while seniors can use PMs dividends to boost investment income.
Investors are encouraged to use the sluggish price levels as an opportunity to lower their dollar cost average gold / silver price.
PMs facilitate higher asset risk without jeopardizing overall safety, and as every student of finance knows, higher risk can equate with improved reward when managed scientifically.
Gold and silver are the bedrock / cornerstone of a portfolio. Would you try to build a house without a foundation?
Investors are urged to ask how much they can lose without a solid PMs foundation before asking how much they can gain from a popular stock.

Domestic small-cap / mid-caps are preferred over large-cap, which have higher dollar exposure.
The political backlash against rate-hikes could be intense, putting a ceiling on the benchmark rate.
Increasing the allocation of gold and precious metals is advisable, particularly for European investors due to dollar strength and relative euro weakness.
As capital inflows intensify, the US economy could grow its way out of the debt issues.
Given that Fed rate cuts are instrumental to protracted stock market rallies (Figure 1.1), cut the imminent rate hikes halt the seven-year, equities bull-market?
Peter Schiff, Chairman of SchiffGold.com says the Fed is bluffing - if the officials pull the QE plug, the national economic engine will stall.
While the world is focused on the Grexit, Peter Schiff says the US debt problem is much worse, making default an inevitability and the precious metals safe haven the investment du jour.
The gold repatriation movement is gaining momentum, not only abroad, but now domestically - the Lone Star state has requested the return of its $1 billion gold reserves from the Fed.
Peter Schiff and company have found the perfect panacea, a gold digital currency (gold-backed Bitcoin).
