    Some kind of strange psychology going on I suppose! I have to admit that it has upset me at times because the discussions and arguments were at times heated, and now it is as if they never happened. One close relative ended up selling a house way too late at the end of 2007, then went on to claim that he ‘sold just in time’ and to this day gives credit to his high school aged son for telling him to sell!

    Even more interesting is that I have found this dynamic applies not only to housing and investment discussions, but across the board. One rule of thumb is that any time you actively oppose someone elses opinion, say on whether to hire someone or not, you make it that much more difficult for them to ever admit they were wrong or credit you for being right. The difficulty is proportional to the opposition, according to psychologist Juice!

    Just for the record I did make a large purchase of silver yesterday, so I don’t feel too bad about recommending it. Today was a great sign of those who really are hedging against the falling dollar and our weak economy. The DOW has taken some nasty hits and it is only Wednesday. I am looking forward to a prosperous week in the metal markets and an eye opener for all investors, including two of my financial advisors, who swore the commodity days were over. Put on your silver and gold boots and enjoy the ride.
