- Does anyone else on this list listen to the "Money Makes Money" radio
- program by Michael Pappageorgio, broadcast on WWCR shortwave weekly
- at 0530 UTC Sundays on 7435 kHz? This man runs one of these rare-coin
- exchanges and dealerships, but most of his program is discussion of
- non-mainstream economics. For example, he had Presidential candidate
- Bo Gritz as a guest on a couple programs prior to the election, and they
- discussed the evils of the Federal Reserve and how to eliminate the
- national debt. He spends the rest of the time saying how wonderful rare coins
- are as an investment.
-
- The one thing I can't understand is why he wants to sell these rare coins,
- if they are so much better an investment or an asset than any stocks
- or bonds or cash money... If you believe what he says, it means that
- he loses vast amounts of future wealth every time he sells one of them... :-)
-
- Any comments about him in particular?
