About Mark Edward Brown’s New Silver Dollar

Mark Edward Brown's Silver Dollar image

     I recently ordered and recieved a new 2011 .999 pure Silver Eagle, Silver Dollar – see the picture on the left. The last time I discussed silver with you was last year when silver was around $35/ounce. The precious metal, silver is now at around $45 per ounce and is expected to top $50 or more this year.

     Here are 3 reasons why you should invest in silver right now:
1) There is an increasiing industrial demand for silver and it is not recycled so silver is in a way is like oil – as it is consumed and used, it’s gone forever.

2) There is an increasing investment demand for silver bullion coins and bars. Investors like myself are hedging themselves against further deflation, as well as drops in property values and equity markets. Investors are also further protecting themselves against rising inflation, currency devaluations and geopolitical and macroeconomic instability.

3) Silver is undervalued compared to gold. Add to the already rising gold prices, geopolitical complications, and the ever decreasing value of paper money and dwindling supplies, is it that hard to see that silver prices which are forecast to rise now seem like a good investment?

Leave me your comments, would you rather invest in gold, let me know?

Always to Your financial success,

Mark Edward Brown Visits a South Korean Mall

Coex Mall, Seoul     This post is a continuation of my last blog entry.  The first part of the day was spent at the museum and the second half of the day was spent at the Coex Mall in Seoul, south Korea.  The Coex mall bills itself as the largest underground shopping mall in Asia and I believe it.  I only spent a half a day there and still did not see all that there was to visit and experience.

     There are at least 200 stores, name brands included. 60 restaruants at least, all types of food and a 16 screen cinema called Mega Box.  I was not able to take in a movie, however I did visit one of the mall’s main attractions, the Coex Aquarim

This is one of the most amazing Aquarium’s I have ever seen, it has 3,000 tons of water and over 650 kinds of species on display.  It is a sight to see.  The cost was quite reasonable as well, about $13 US dollars.

"Coex Mall Aquarium"

One of the features that I liked the best is how they set up the display’s, there was a kid’s aquarium, a see through / underwater walk through tunnel (very cool), marine mamal zone, seas from around the world.  You name it and they had it on display, there were at least 10 different areas that I counted and there were probably more that I just can not remember.

One of the cool experiences of the day is that we took the subway and then the train back to the town that is close to our base, it was inexpensive and a cool way to experience the culture and it’s people.

What are some of the cool places or people you have met lately?  Leave me a comment and let me know.

With my best regards always,

Mark Edward Brown’s Korean War Memorial Tour

"Korean War Memorial"     I recently had the opportunity to do some sight seeing in south Korea.  Allmost everyone that knows me, knows that I am living and working in Korea as a part of my military career.  Some of my friends and I went on an outing recently because the weather was nice and we were basically just experiencing spring fever :-)

     So, what did we do?  We hopped on a bus rode a couple of hours through the cities and countryside and journeyed to the big city of Seoul.  We visited the Korean War Memorial, it’s hard to compare it to anything that I have been to before, I have not been to the Smithsonian but I have been to the Louvre in Paris and it was just as impressive if not more so because they have around 9,000 artifacts.

The Korean people have 5,000 years of history to categorize and it was fascinating to see how they highlighted the most important time periods right up to the most recent sinking of the naval ship Cheonon.

The photo above is only of the outside exhibits, I encourage you to visit the link above to see some pictures of the inside.  If you ever make it to Seoul this is one location you should not miss and one of the best things about it is that is was free!

What is the best museum you have visited or some other cool places in Korea that you recomend visiting?  Leave me a comment and let me know.

Always with my best regards,

Mark Edward Brown

P.S.
I will have more on the other 2 places that I visited in a few days so stop back soon :-)
