So the only game in town to try to hold on to any wealth you may have is precious metals and the stock market.

The stock market is rigged now. Stock prices no longer have a relationship to earnings. An easier game to play is commercial real estate where prices do track earnings, and capital gains taxes can be avoided forever. The way to deal with low interest rates and high inflation is borrow as much as you can and sink it into an income producing property. Most investors leverage their money times 4. If you can't by a medical office building for the Obamacare wave you can start out with a 4-plex rental. If you live in one unit you can get a 30 year fixed loan with very little down. Sometime in the next 30 years that fixed rate will be worth more than gold. Commercial real estate investors typically make 12% annual return on their money which is better and safer and taxed less than anything else right now.

11.4% right here.

I would not touch commercial right now. As the economy tanks they will go empty! empty! empty!

There will be no need for doctors offices, because they will all become hospitalists and the hosptial will provide offices.
