All very good point. A couple of rebuttal, the super smart students tend to have free ride from those Universities. The students from rich family can easily afford it. It’s only those that are barely smart enough to get in but not exceptional enough to get scholarship that need to reconsider. Research universities are good for undergrads who wants to go on to grad school and potentially Ph.D. It’s not good for those undergrads who want to go straight to the field after undergrad. Besides that, I agree with all the other points.

You’ll have at least $10000. So, yes, you’ll have all of your capital. Your buying power might reduce due to inflation, but you won’t lose any $ you put in. You can with gold, depending on when you buy. I.E. if you buy in 1980, you’d be negative nominally for 20+ years. You’d still be negative inflation adjusted today.

[quote=walterwhite]Comparing gold to ford isn’t fair. Gold isn’t z stock play it’s a savings play. If the choice is gold 1,000 or 1,000 in the bank, gold seemed safer. Sure ford worked out but things are only no brainers in retrospect. Gold is and was an alternative currency play.

I am willing to acknowledge that dverythingbi just wrote may be total bullshit.

Worst stock advice ever? Buy Polaroid in 1999, the who digital camera thing won’t take off[/quote]
Gold isn’t a savings play. If you put money in the bank, you’re guarantee x% return every year and there’s NO WAY to lose your capital. You can lose money investing in gold if gold goes down. Gold can go up and down like Ford.
