Get Rich "Beyond Your Wildest Dreams" |

Editor's note: At times, our outside contributors have something so compelling to say, we're compelled to pass it along. Today is one such example. In today's article, Harvard-trained geologist and former naval officer Byron King shows you how your "American Birthright" can potentially enrich you "beyond your wildest dreams." |
Dear Reader, |
Today I want to talk about what I call "American Birthright." I'm referring to a long overdue change in the fundamental relationship between the U.S. government and average, everyday American citizens. |
Trump is at the center of it. I'll get to that in a minute. |
Just understand, there's serious history behind this shift. But in essence, Uncle Sam is about to enable a new era of American opportunity and ingenuity that will help rebuild the country and create immense new levels of wealth. |
And you can participate in all of this. I'll get to the details in a minute. But first let me briefly introduce myself to readers who may not be familiar with me. |
The Cred |
I'm a real, live geologist who studied the field as an undergrad and in graduate school. I'm not sure how proud I am to say it, but I went to Harvard. Beyond that, I actually worked in industry as a once-upon-a-time petroleum geologist with the old Gulf Oil Company, now part of Chevron. |
Beyond dedicated geology courses, my academic background also includes math, physics, chemistry, mineralogy, crystallography and more. Plus, I'm a retired naval officer with several decades of service, active duty and reserve, much of it dealing with technological and engineering challenges. I was once an aide to the Chief of Naval Operations. |
But far more importantly for today's topic, I've crisscrossed the globe in search of the world's best investment opportunities in hard assets. These range from oil and gas to uranium, gold, silver, platinum, copper, and many other critically important metals. You name it, I've been there. |

Jim Rickards: "One Executive Order changes my entire 'Birthright' thesis…"
| | In his original 'Birthright' presentation, Jim Rickards conservatively projected this $150 trillion mineral boom to transpire over 4 years… But Trump has just completely accelerated this timeline. What happens next will shock most Americans. Jim just recorded an urgent interview with all the new details. | Watch his full analysis of The American Birthright: Phase II HERE. |

Here's Where Trump Comes In |
Okay, now for the Donald Trump angle. I'm sure I don't have to explain how he is a disruptor to the status quo, right? I mean, c'mon, man... Love him or not, this guy has shaken things up over the past decade, since June 2015 when he announced his candidacy for president. |
I won't rehash the history of Trump, but in terms of the aforementioned American Birthright theme he has set the stage for something remarkable; and something that most investors have missed. |
That is, in just the first six months of his second term, Trump has signed a series of executive orders that will fast-track the federal permitting process to develop America's energy-and mineral-rich federal lands. And that's a big deal. Why? |
Because for many decades, America has been sitting on a $150 trillion fortune. |
The wealth is there, within the rocks. The U.S. Geological Survey knows about it. The Department of Energy knows about it. Many people with geological training and knowledge know about it. But this wealth has been locked up by bureaucrats and anti-development regulation. |
Every American a Millionaire? |
Now, though, and for the first time in several generations, the government is moving to monetize America's physical assets. And it's not just with shiny things like the nation's gold resources that are buried in rocks from Arizona and Nevada up to Alaska. |
This new approach by Trump also pertains to many other valuable and critical metals and resources hidden under the surface on federal lands. |
In fact, this secret store of wealth is so valuable, I'm not kidding when I say it could turn every U.S. citizen into a millionaire. The demand is so large. |
The fact is, the U.S. lacks a sufficient industrial base to supply its military. It cannot currently produce the artillery shells, bombs, drones and missiles it needs, not to mention the aircraft, ships and submarines it needs. |
As a former military officer dedicated to our nation's defense, we need to confront serious questions. Questions such as: What if the U.S. had to fight a real war? |
A Real Problem |
We have a strategic-level problem on our hands, which the Deep State perma-bureaucrats in Washington have long wallpapered over. They talk tough but overlook the weaknesses of U.S. industry to produce the very metals and materials that go into the war machines. |
Military power is the first derivative of industrial power, and industrial power comes from a robust system of supply chains for just about everything. This is why Trump wants rapidly to rebuild U.S. industry, namely to renew America's military strength. |
What do all these industrial points have in common? The country needs energy, minerals and metals, whether it's for medical or military use, or much else in between. This is a framework through which to understand what we see with Trump and his policies. |
And this is why the Man from Queens wants to open up America, to permit Americans to invest and reinvest in basic resources, and to create new wealth out of the ground. Trump wants this land to be more for you and me to share the wealth, and not just for the special interests and "off limits" bureaucrats. |
How to Invest |
Having said all that, what should you do as an investor? The short answer is to invest in American companies that will benefit from Trump opening federal lands and reducing regulations on development. That is, own hard assets like energy and resources, plus of course, precious metals. |
On the energy side, ExxonMobil (XOM) remains a solid play based on its domestic energy production, along with impressive future growth from its overseas operations, especially its giant discoveries offshore Guyana in South America. |
For another essential metal, look at a copper player like Freeport McMoRan (FCX), which has domestic and overseas production of red metal, along with a precious metals stream, extracting gold and silver from copper mining. |
For precious metals in the strict sense, there's Newmont Mining (NEM), a strong play that will only improve in a rising gold market. And Kinross Gold (KGC) also offers excellent upside opportunity as gold prices rise. |
These names are not official recommendations. But I believe they are solid companies and worth a look for your personal portfolio if you choose. |
And remember, when you buy shares: wait for down days in the market, always use a limit order, and never chase momentum. If you miss the move on one company, don't despair because another idea will come along eventually. |
That's all for now! |
