Is Peter Schiff Wrong on Gold?

You will notice that Both CNBC and Nations claim that I said gold would hit $5,000 in two years. But I never actually said that. My actual forecast was that gold would hit $5,000 "in a few years." A few is more than two. Two is a couple. A few just means a small number, typically three. But four could also be considered to be a few. So could five. So it's still possible that gold could hit $5,000 in a few years, which would validate my forecast! CNBC and Nations are just making up this two-year gold $5,000 forecast to make me look bad. Also I had no idea who Scott Nations was. I did not realize he was another guest. I thought he worked for CNBC
