      Countdown of Manipulated Gold Price Running Out
      Why the "reply" link under comments when your comment just goes to the bottom of the page?

      Good call.
      Additionally, nearly every gold pusher weaves a slightly different yet unique tapestry they want us to see. And the most important thing to them is that WE see it.
      Why do they need us so badly?
      Can you imagine any other sector or commodity having every proponent so aggressively selling its merits in such long, involved testimonials?
      Also, I question the merits of anything that goes down in price being a hedge against inflation.(Yes, I understand that if the whole thing falls off the cliff and there is no more currency, that gold is said to be the thing that will return to its historical place as the default currency.)

      Wage Inflation on the Horizon
      Do you realize the average salary here is over $40,000? It rises every year! Let's see....$3333 gross a month.......Probably $2650 net...
      How nice that would be to make over twice as much money and still be only at the average. Or to even think of flying as anything other than a very rare luxury even at old low fares.
      Yeah, it must be nice to have it so good that it seems like a hardship that flying is now so expensive that you can't go jump on a plane at a moment's whim!
      Waaaah.Waaaaaaah. This is what we get - not for living like pigs - but for not taking any of the many opportunities that come to all of our lives... to come down to earth, live within our means, and STOP living like pigs. We can't help the culture we were raised in, but we can sure help continuing to wallow in immediate gratification at every moment after we've become aware enough to where we ought to recognize the meaning of the phrase and change our pig ways!

      Even for "saving", probably want to stay small and closely watched.

      SCENARIO #1 = Gold resumes climb and peaks at lofty places generating profits in terms of..... ;-) how many DOLLARS it will gain you/me! (Ironic)
      SCENARIO #2 = Dollars lose ALL value, man agrees that gold is the standard of value, radicals proclaim "victory" amidst supreme chaos, and it takes a wheelbarrow full of gold to buy a loaf of bread.
      ======================...
      What is the difference except the increased level of hunger attained having lugged around your favorite money?!
      But, OH! ...To be so RIGHT!!!

      Energy Pause Is No Problem for Canadian Trusts
      Well then,...I will say something:
      I have only owned a little HTE for 10 or 12 weeks and a bit of AAV for 3 or 4 weeks, but on these days of oil per/bl surging, the Can Trusts have kept even, while rising in contrast each day oil drops. All the while earning 14.38% and 11.49% div. yield.
      Sure, it looks like its a ploy to pump up what he's sellin'.
      And maybe I'm trying to pump what I already own, but that does seem to be the name of the game. Your job is to ferret out the B.S. from the straight talk.
      A beginner like me can see that these are good plays in the kind of market we've been in. And maybe when the rest of the market starts to outperform them, maybe it'll be time to use some of those dollars elsewhere. Right now they serve one quite well when bubbles are frothy and extended, and choices are sketchy.
      Beware of contempt prior to investigation!

      Even Your Tax Dollars Are Buying AdWords
      Actually, at worst case, seeing these messages would further motivate cyber-attackers of the most determined kind.
      Probably all of the above and everything in-between.

      And to think that at one time it was a story that couldn't wait to be told.
      As much as I agree with SOME of what USA has done lately, our communication (the prez) has been poor, and at times laughable.
      Anti-U.S. propaganda has had a running start for many years now.
      This might not be the "best" way but it is a start.
      After all, isn't most of that GOOGLE advertising linking to spam and quick rip-offs anyway? At the very worst, were in similar company, right? At best, the messages are acceptably honest and can correct hopefully many of the misconceptions about things.

      Visa: Near-Term Fluctuations Present a Buying Opportunity
      Let's see......Watch a stock go up 10 pts. so I can get it on a 3-4 pt. pullback.
      Nice......
      That (ill)logic escapes me here and every time I hear or read that rcmndtn. Can anyone explain? I can see it when the pullback is far more likely to happen first.

      Bankruptcies Will Be Number One Growth Area for 2008
      So where are the opportunities directly resulting from a spike in bankruptcies?
      Surely this poor boy is entitled to profit from this if at all possible, hmm? Any ideas?

      Motley Fool's Bullish on Canadian Stocks
      ~ ~ OR.......So,Motley Fool's Bullish on Canadian Stocks, huh?
      Hm.I'm happy for them.
      (Which is no bite on Canadian stocks on my part, at all. I have a few units of a Canadian Energy Trust and have more than a little interest in the EWC, the oil sands,& Canadian opportunities in general. What the Fool has to say about it, however, has come to mean not so much to me.)

      Motley Fool once had my awe-filled reverence because.....well just because. A few months into my venture into the study of the market and all who write and speak on it, "The Fool" has quickly come to seem such an obvious "for sale"...."pr... web/email letter writing,all-out stock pushing effort ~ that I take their opinions with lots of salt and very little trust as to where their motivations lie.

      Best ETF and CEF Absolute Lagged Correlation To the S&P 500
      I'm stupid. I need words! Do you mean that 25% of the time, the S&P500 correlates exactly to what the RXI did 21 days earlier? Do you mean that 21 days behind the RXI, the S&P500 acts the same with a 25% variance? I doubt that this is what you mean but what can it be? 25% is the BEST? Why bother. And what about the neg.%'s? Is it helpful to know that something is 'off' or at variance at a 14% rate? That still leaves 86% that isn't neccesarily exactly correlating.....
      I WANT to see a pattern like whatever it is I get a hint of what I THINK you could possibly mean..........but ....just what IS that?!?
      Expand. Please. I'm beggin' ya!
