Jill Kerby and the euro

Everytime I hear Jill Kerby on the radio or read her columns in the Sunday Times, she is talking about the euro collapsing.

I would say it almost amounts to scaremongering particularly when making statements such as "all paper and ink fiat currencies turn into wallpaper eventually"
(that's in today's Sunday Times)

Then there's her regular bashing of State Savings products and describing those who buy prize bonds as "prize idiots"

Calling some people "prize idiots" and telling others that their savings could turn to "wallpaper" sound like inflammatory langauage to me.

She seems to be a fan of gold, often mentions it and said recently that she wished her employer would pay her in gold.

I seem to recall her having a go a public service pensions recently.

As a result of the above I wouldn't be a fan of hers but then again, maybe she has a point with some of it.

What's her track record like when it comes to the investment advice she has given in the past. For instance was she recommending gold when it was $400 an ounce?
