The Master Thief – But just who is it?

Most of humankind are being fleeced everyday and for the most part they are not even aware of it. Let me elaborate if I may.

Gold Price-Change Overview (1933 – 2013)

Back in 1933 the US Dollar was really pretty valuable (compared to today at least!).

So just how do you think this grand theft took place? Have a ponder and I will cover more next time. Till then, “Keep Stackin’ ” …
