IMO the only reason the US currency is the main currency of choice in the world is that the others are performing relatively more poorly.

Now I'm sure, as an investment advisor, you can think of other things to invest in. However, in the long run, considering the above, IMO one should be invested in real things. What better way to invest than in something that provides one of the basic necessities of life i.e. a roof over your head, and appreciates at the rate the currency is likely to erode.
