The Big Reset Description
In his first book (2007) Willem Middelkoop mentioned it wasn't a question if our financial system would collapse, but only when. The words proved prophetic. At the end of 2008 we were only a few hours away from the complete collapse of our global credit home.?In this book Middelkoop describes the history and characteristics of our current financial system and he shows us the true value and background of money. Gold appears to be the only currency to have never lost it's purchasing power over thousands of years. So, in a world full of crisis and currency wars it is no surprise gold is being discovered as a safe store of value once again. Gold and the secret of money contains essential information for anyone with a full piggy bank, large inheritance or bad retirement.

Willem Middelkoop may not be a familiar name to Americans, but in his home country the Netherlands he is a renowned financial analyst, commodity fund owner, former journalist and most of all, an outspoken gold bug. He has written multiple books on the financial system as well as (peak) oil, all in dutch, which became bestsellers in his home country.
Willem Middelkoop's ‘finest’ hour came when shortly after he published his book “Als de dollar valt” (which gets a surprising translation as “If the dollar collapses”, instead of “When the dollar collapses” which is more in line with its core message), the financial crisis of 2007-2008 hit the world and the Dutch economy went seriously south. Numerous appearances on national television followed, where Willem Middelkoop was invited as the dutch Dr Doom, as he was, like Nouriel Roubini, one of the very few to predict the crisis and thus capable of explaining the world going crazy during those days of deepest financial turmoil.
The Big Reset then is his first book in English and he uses the occasion to summarize his earlier books, while providing an very interesting update (more on that later) on the central premise of his work: that all fiat currencies are mortal, the end for the dollar as sole world reserve currency is nigh and there is only 1 form of real money. The latter, you guessed it, is gold. All these changes are coming upon us as part of the ‘Big Reset’.
This may hardly be a new insight in today’s world, where the likes of Max Keiser, James Rickards, Marc Faber and others hit the spotlights regularly with their latest views on how the financial world stumbles from the one crisis to the next, but what this book brings to the table is a succinctly written yet complete overview of where it all began and how it will end.
