-GOLD- busted

Do u really think that buying gold right now is a wise thing to do????
In view of all the other "deals gone bad" ??
This is so predictible it's scary. People need to learn to not be so greedy.
Watch the movie "treasure of the sierra madre".
Let it sink in. Don't be greedy.

If you look at the Dow/Gold ratio gold is at the higher end of the value range right now. Historically the DJIA as measured against gold trades within a range. It's getting closer to time to sell gold than buy it right now.

Buy low and sell high.

But then, commodities are your best bet to buy.

I think the states need to start printing their own money again. Worked fine till the NORTHERN INVASION of 1861...........Ah the good old days. Maybe I will run an add on craigslest saying I have alot of gold for sale and want someone to come and give me an estimate at my house. Then load up the shotguns ,hide my cars and WAIT.....for the fun to begin.

Gold is fine as long as they don't devalue it. They are making their own rules now!

Small,Aerodynamic, pieces....tapered at one end,perhaps even pointed,and flat on the other end.....and capable of fast accurate travel? Those are a good investment,along with the machinery that provides for there launch.

Does anybody think that the Dow/and Markets are all rigged? You don't know what to buy or sell, or just plain get out of it. For many years I tried to learn the stock market, learning by myself and asking professionals. In the end there is only one similarity I still dont understand it.
