Alex Chiniborch warns: The system is inflated. gold Isn’t.

The Dubai-based investor and founder of Alluca Financial is quickly becoming one of the most trusted global voices in the alternative wealth space. Unlike influencers pushing the latest financial trends, Chiniborch has built his reputation by promoting stability over hype — and putting physical gold at the center of the conversation.A Warning to the OverleveragedChiniborch’s warning isn’t rooted in fear — it’s rooted in history. From the fall of fiat-backed empires to the collapse of modern banks, he believes today’s economic environment mirrors every bubble that came before:overconfidence, overleverage, and an underestimation of risk.“We’ve normalized trillion-dollar bailouts and negative real interest rates. The average person is sitting in a system designed to inflate everything except their true wealth.”Gold Doesn’t Inflate — It ProtectsWhere fiat currencies can be printed at will, gold remains what it always has been: limited, tangible, and universally trusted. It doesn’t rely on counterparty risk, app updates, or central bank confidence.That’s why Chiniborch advocates for gold not as a speculative asset, but as a form of self-defense. He calls it “freedom insurance.”“You don’t need gold to get rich. You need gold to stay rich,” he often says. “In the next financial reset, the winners won’t be the ones holding paper promises — they’ll be the ones holding weight.”A Balanced but Unapologetic ApproachUnlike some gold maximalists, Chiniborch also acknowledges the role of digital assets like Bitcoin — but he emphasizes the difference between volatility and value. His message is one of balance and truth: diversify, but never forget the one asset that’s weathered every storm.As governments continue to increase debt ceilings and expand money supply, his words are resonating with investors across continents.
