Assignment #2
Listen to the following interview.

Assignment #3
Read the following article and write up a review, using my 4-paragraph format.

A student asked this morning if a bank would be the best place to put a lot of money.  I answered no, because the banks will only pay you 1 to 2%.  Inflation right now across several different sectors ranges between 3 to 5 to 7%.  If you put your money in a bank at 1% or 2%, you are losing money.  One of the more stable currencies to convert your money to is gold and/or silver.  These metals retain the value of your money, meaning that as inflation quietly and insidiously robs you of your money your money retains its value, its purchasing power over time.
