Mogambo is not the heart of darkness. He is the light at the end of the tunnel. Well done.

Good point.

I myself owe the MMM (Mighty and Majestic Mogambo) a debt of gratitude. It was his column that first introduced me to the hard money school of thought, and convinced me to invest in gold (very profitably I might add). I was hoping the Mogambo would grace the Agora Financial symposium in Vancouver this year, as he has in the past, but I was to be disappointed. Nevertheless I drank many beers, and ate many slices of pizza in his honor. There is no doubt that the Mogambo is one of the greatest financial stinkers, ... uh I meant thinkers of our day. I am not sure if his idea of a beer, and taco backed currency is practical though.

Thanks for the insights.

The Mogombo Guru is just delightful! A little humor goes a long way in a world where politicians appoint the perpetrators to fix the results of their crimes. It is high time we figure out how to unseat these people.

As delightful as a gorilla investor can be.

The only thing I would add to Mr. Daughty's excellent,informative, and revealing interview is that on a personal level he should feel fortunate that only his trash cans were damaged by suspicious means.
According to Gary Kah (1991) Mr. Luis T. Mcfadden in a five minute tirade against the Federal Reserve Board in l932 found himself shot at twice on his way to a Manhattan
Hotel Restaurant several weeks later and became violently ill after that, apparently a victim of poisoning according to the doctor with whom he was lunching that day!
Oh yes by the way, Mr. McFadden was the congressional rep from the state of Pennsylvania and was for a few years chair of the Committee on Banking and Currency!
It was a surprising experience to see Mr. Daughty's comments printed. I have had much less caustic remarks 'censored' on a number of occasions. But I guess it depends upon whom the commentary is coming from as to the reaction illicited.
Again, my congratulations and much thanks to Mr. Daughty for speaking his mind.

Perhaps Mr. Daughty is just joking.

As usual, more ranting and raving about central banking in colorful terms but NO FIRM SOLUTIONS that are PRACTICALLY IMPLEMENTABLE. Come on guys, start making recommendations as colorful as your language!-and then get them implemented.
Suggestion: Write Ron Paul's next interrogation of Ben Bernancke and get him to use it so the whole nation can hear the truth and maybe get us a "town hall" effect like health care is now getting. Americans are at the tipping point. This should do it. You heard it here first.

We have suggested a gold and silver market-based standard.

I commend the Daily Bell for this interview. It must be great as it totally reflects my own thoughts on the subject, including the use of acronyms. Your loyal reader(YLR)

Man that Mogambo dude was too funny. . . I really enjoyed his view of the world and the economy, and of course I agree with him totally. He really should be a comedian. . .
