The Survival Podcast

Rob Gray has made a decision to relaunch SilverBulletSilverShield.com and I have agreed to support it.  Some may say good, some may say why and some may say Jack don’t do it.

To those that say good, you have no idea how good this will be.  To those that say why, I have my reasons and will explain them tomorrow on the show.  To those that say don’t do it, perhaps you will change your mind tomorrow when you hear how and why I am doing this.

All I can say is this is going to be great and a lot of fun too.  Oh and there won’t be 87 updates to this post.  LOL.

This Copper Round Will Be Minted Once Only and Can’t be Purchased at Any Price.

Last update for a while I promise guys, frankly I need a break from all this but don’t want anyone misunderstanding the copper promotion.  I answered 5 emails this AM with people upset because they “missed the opportunity for the limited edition copper round”, that isn’t the case, that ain’t the deal.

The deal is once we hit 5,000 Sentinels which we have done all orders from the beginning of the launch to the end of the promotion get one free limited edition copper.  That means if you ordered any quantity of BU Sentinels that a free copper will ship with your order, and if you order anytime from right now until midnight central standard time Sunday night (5-12-13) you will get one with your order as well.

This is the deal I worked out with Rob, now make his copper press scream!  Remember this copper round will only ever be done one time, we are not selling them and never will.  Some have said, hey it is only a copper round.  Well, I am not promising anything but some AOCS limited coppers are selling right now on eBay for anywhere between 15-50 dollars or more due to their scarcity.

The real point though is it is an affinity piece.  Something only folks that helped out with the launch of the Sentinel will ever have.  Something to add to your “challenge coin” collection and something you can only get this one time.  So if you haven’t ordered any Sentinels yet, now would be a good time to do so.

Update – This Promotion Has Expired

This Copper Round Will Be Minted Once Only and Can’t be Purchased at Any Price.

We are almost there, less then 200 Sentinels need to be sold now until all orders get a free limited edition copper round.

Frankly it is pretty much a done deal at this point and the copper is a lock and stock guarantee.  In fact I am going to make this promise to you guys.  Should by some freak event we not hit 5,000 coppers by Sunday evening I will personally buy at full retail the differential and make sure you guys get these copper rounds, because hey, hell I want one too.

The Sentinel Round has taken the world quite literally by storm.  While it doesn’t count for our direct sales in this contest Bullion Bourse in Australia just ordered 1,000 ounces so TSP’rs in the land down under, yes, the Sentinel is coming to Australia.

We are working to add more international dealers to the list and Provident Metals will also be carrying the Sentinel in the US Market.  We set out to do something unique, something with huge impact and something that has never been done before with the Sentinel round and we pulled it off, with your help of course.  Selling 5,000 plus ounces in 4 days gets the attention of silver dealers all over the world.  Selling out a Limited Edition in 7 hours didn’t hurt either.  Again thanks to all of you who have helped make the Sentinel into such a great success.

There will also be a bonus, as we got a great rate on the mini excavator so some work will also be done on our new 2700 square foot forest garden showcase.  While we will not be planting this area some of the main frame rough in will be done and the master plan explained to all students.

Just a courtesy guys, Geoff Lawton says the online PDC will close tonight at 12 Midnight Pacific Standard Time.  Remember if you are an MSB Member the discount on this one course alone is about 150 dollars so PLEASE use the link on the benefits page of the MSB if you do sign up.

Also remember that Geoff is adding a full online earth works course that will be added to the coursework after the final part of the PDC is uploaded and this will also be at no charge to PDC students.  For those that can’t attend the Earthworks Course Geoff will do at my property in August this is the next best thing.

Also this may sound self serving but it really isn’t.  MSB is 50 dollars a year, the discount on the PDC is 150 dollars to MSB Members, if you are not MSB and about to buy the PDC it is really insane not to join the MSB first and get the discount.  It just makes no financial sense.  Just a thought and a final notice on the PDC registration coming to a close.

Below is a short video about the Free Earthworks Course Being added to the PDC.
