Actually not time to buy gold, rather buy NATTO. According to a survey of the price of NATTO as a valuable commodity over 200 years, Harvard researchers discovered that NATTO is COMPLETELY IMMUNE to inflation. Said another way, if you bought a box of NATTO 200 years ago for 100 yen, it would still be worth the inflation adjusted value that you paid. This robust store of wealth exceeds silver, gold, platinum, land, housing, bonds, stocks and of course, worthless fiat money. Buy NATTO, you WON'T REGRET IT.

The trade surpluses are killing the economy, so this is a good thing. Reckless, NATTO? Rings the alarm bell and then starts to run in circles!
