This is not your parents investment advisory.
Vidette Capital Management is not just about growing wealth. It is about protecting it. It is about building a legacy, returning to fiscal common sense, reigniting family values, and setting the next generation up for success.
Planning for the future is increasingly difficult today as the cost of homes, apartments, healthy food, education, health care, and other basic essentials keeps rising. Every day people are struggling to make ends meet, start families, provide for their loved ones, stay involved in their communities, and still live a meaningful life. In many cases prices have risen faster than incomes, forcing people to work longer and harder, see their families less, or even question whether they can afford to start a family in the first place. This steady rise in prices is called inflation. Put simply, each dollar buys less than it used to. As money loses purchasing power, it becomes harder to save, invest, and plan ahead. People are pushed toward short term decisions just to cover basic needs, and real long term planning is crowded out. Over time this not only weakens personal finances, it erodes morals, the habit of building for the future, and the health of society as a whole. What feels like the American dream slipping out of reach is not an illusion. It is really happening.
"Your silver has become dross. Your wine is mixed with water" Isaiah 1:22
At Vidette Capital Management we believe that chronic inflation and the steady weakening of the dollar are among the gravest threats facing families and society today. Since 1971, when President Richard Nixon took the dollar off the gold standard, the United States has operated under what is called a fiat monetary system, which means our dollars are not backed by a fixed supply of gold or any other hard asset. Under a fiat monetary system the supply of dollars can be expanded at will, and this ongoing creation of new money acts as a quiet tax on savers. That new money lifts prices for homes, food, education, and assets, so savers and wage earners pay the cost while borrowers and asset owners are rewarded. As more dollars are created, each one tends to buy less, and the value of a lifetime of work and savings is slowly chipped away. Given the current spending policies and fiscal path of the United States, further devaluation of the currency is no longer just a risk. It is built into the system and is all but guaranteed to continue. In the words of investment strategist Lyn Alden, "There is no stopping this train".
Vidette Capital Management aims to take this issue head on at the individual and family level, providing financial consulting and investment options that are resilient to inflation, focused on outpacing fiat devaluation, and designed to support clients’ financial needs and goals over the short, medium, and long term. Below are the services we plan to offer:
Financial consulting and budgeting support
Retirement planning and long term savings strategies
Consulting for short and medium term cash needs
Gold and precious metal exposure
Bitcoin self custody and adoption
Collateralization options (the ability to borrow against your precious metals and Bitcoin for large fiat purchases)
Equity exposure and research with a value and growth focus in public companies whose business models and sectors are more resilient to inflation and the risks of government austerity.
