Buyer Beware! Theodore Butler
Most men treasure personal reputation
as their most valuable possession. I know I do. With reputation
comes responsibility, especially if you put your words in print for
a wide audience. The last thing I want to do is to write something
that would cause damage to the reader, particularly in financial

that help people.

price. They sell as "rare, limited, collectibles" things that are
mass produced, and newly minted. In coin shops, you can buy the same
products that were sold on TV ten years ago, right at the cost of
the silver itself.
