The rich misnamed Mexican, Slim, made his billions buying assets at pennies on the peso during the depths of a Mexican financial crisis.
I look forward to doing the same during the depths of our upcoming financial crisis (on a markedly smaller scale, of course).
My son was happy to convert his savings over the years into some gold earlier this year; my daughter was less excited. We’ll see if my running the $400K to $7B story by her piques her interest in saving/speculating/investing.
