    im not really a super gold bug. i agree. it’s oot the sort of thing to put all your eggs in one basket. but i’ve made a little over the last 3 -4 years, and I kinda beleive in it as a percentage, like insurance….i think it has some possibility to do well compared to other investments. I’d say 25% of portfolio. that’s me, personally.

    if I could have put my 401k all in a few years back, though, i woulda done it. i think there’ sosme point outt her ein the future where economic dislocation will cause some amazing thing to happen to gold price…

    Gold does well when there’s instability in the world and in the markets. Ultimate safe haven, no counter-party risk, money.
    But if you look at the record, gold has a very, very long history of maintaining its purchasing power. While fiat currency has just the opposite history.

    Lack of visibility and instability are now the norm in all the markets. I’ve been saying this for months on this site, the US$ and gold are the places to be in the next year or two.
