Scdyct,
Where do you buy your gold – is it gold stocks or gold mining companies or rights to a certain amount at places like Perth Mint? I ask becuase you seeem to have been doing it for a while.

I think you should buy the house, don’t get overly worried about a couple of dollars too hi or low, if it’s really the right one & you can afford. But definately make sure you get full credit from wife & remind her often.
