This special bonus segment was recorded in late 2025 as part of Kitco News’ Outlook 2026 series.
After their full interviews, we asked Lynette Zang, David Rosenberg, Lobo Tiggre, Mike McGlone and Peter Schiff one final question: If you were in your 20s today, starting with limited savings and rising debt in a system under structural strain, what is the one decision or discipline you would adopt in 2026? And what is the one mistake young people are making now that could matter far more over the next decade than they realize?
Their answers are candid, practical and at times uncomfortable, ranging from stacking hard assets and dollar cost averaging equities to avoiding speculation, building real skills and embracing early mistakes. This is an additional Outlook 2026 conversation focused on long-term financial survival and wealth building for the next generation.

@Kitco News: there is one thing missing on your desk: a Kitco News coffee mug. Could be as well sold to fans like me. I order if it will come 🙂
Don’t waste time at school chasing degrees that won’t give you a job when you graduate.try a trade or something that ai can’t do.
Is Kitko news on vacation
Big shout out to Jeremy and team who since Michelle’s departure has worked his tail off and brought us so many amazing interviews!! 🙏 appreciate it!!
Great video ❤❤
I understand everything, hype and content must be made, but at least once show something that really works. For example mevstake, by the way cool technology
Instead of being remembered as an insightful investor and Gold bug of note, Peter Schiff will only be remembered as the clot who spent most of his energy dissuading people from buying the ultimate investment which is BTC.
Its simple thoughts: do not rush, do not risk excessively, believe the people who actually do work. Thats why I am with mevstake
Excellent segment Kitco thank you
Market red again? Great, at least comments are fun. My mevstake works without weekends, I grab 200 bucks daily
Great video. More compilation videos like this Jeremy!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
You’ve got to feed the kids and how will you (or they) feel if they wear second hand clothes or don’t go on holiday while you’ve got a pile of gold coins?
My pal is forever telling me how much gold he has, but is forever borrowing from me. I say – sell some coins and stop pestering me!!
Nice theme to ask across many interviews! My advice is to find reputable information sources. Kitco is good but avoid X as there is too much bias and misinformation.
An important first point, is to set aside a % of all income, even a small %. Read The Riches Man In Babylon.
❤ great segment 👏
What about young adults in their 30s that are trying to start families?
The best advice would be from someone that grew up in the sixties and seventies. Someone that has been a career investor. There was a time when debt was okay, and credit was okay, but that came after the seventies. OPM, other people's money was how a lot of money was made, but you better read your contract. Overnight changes in the interest rate on an existing debt? Yeah, the big boys have been doing this a long time, changing the rules when you have a serious balance. Thank goodness there were options. That was then. We are going back, where money was hard to get, so was credit. You may need credit someday, try to salvage it if it makes sense, if not, let it go and salvage what you can keep, physically. Let the house go if necessary, downsize, rent, save. Cash will be hard to come by. Look at working at the grocery store, start at the bottom if necessary. If you have some cash to invest, buy silver and gold. Keep 3 to 6 months supply in cash, or enough to buy something you will need dirt cheap. It's coming, or in some cases, here already. Sell what you don't need. Make sure every business deal benefits both parties. It is karma, and makes for a better community. Read up on sound money, Mises economics. Keynesian is dying in fits of anguish. Read "The Law of Success", Napoleon Hill, 100 years old and still the best. Follow it. Stay away from anything recommended by mainstream media and talking heads, everything. Medicine (poison), their version of events and history (misdirection and lies), Hollywood entertainment (poison for kids and adults), demagogues and righteous saviors. Grow whatever you can, follow YouTube growers while you can. If books, buy used, cheap, or trade. I used to collect coke bottles and throw the paper for dishes and glassware. Later a multi-store equipment rental operation that astounded my family. They didn't help. Get a partner (life not business) that believes like you, and go for it.
I always put as much money as I could scrape together into my pension as a lump sum every time the markets corrected downwards.
College is the number one government trap to avoid!
S&P500 is in a death spiral.
Buy Constutional silver and if you can afford it (I couldn't in my twenties) buy gold.
I would still just buy the gold and silver
