How Much Gold & Silver Is Actually Enough for 2026? | Yanis Varoufakis
I want to start with you on something that sounds very simple, almost an obvious truth that few people stop to question. Many believe that just owning a little gold, a few silver coins, puts them on the safe side of whatever is coming. A tiny suit of armor for an uncertain future. But this is what misleads so many: if it were really that simple, if holding a bit of precious metal was enough to weather the system’s shocks, then why, in every major crisis in history, were the majority of those who “thought they were prepared” the very ones swept away first? Something doesn’t add up between intuition and reality. Because when you buy gold or silver, you think you’re buying safety. But safety doesn’t come from having them, but from how you understand them, hold them, and position them in a challenged financial system.
