NAME: Martin Lawrence - live outside Glasgow (Scotland UK) - it's part of a small island somewhere on the edge of Europe - where we drink brown water from peat bogs (whisky), the men wear skirts (kilts) and the family meal consists of a sheeps bladder filled with offal (haggis).

Before our recent introduction to synthetic materials, the bladder was also used for football games as well as meals.

Inexperienced & amature investor who plays only with own money.

Looking for longer term safe haven investments (if there is such a thing).

Currently only invested in stocks - mainly coal, oil sands, palladium (would like to add possible agricultural & gas plays in the future).

Would also like to diversify to avoid 100% exposure to stocks.

During our short summer months, I like to drive my Mexican beetle & wonder why other cars are so complex now - sometimes the simplest ideas are the best (the Beetle did last 70 years - 2003 final production - despite being looked down on as outdated).

Iam employed by a German company in the construction industry (whilst we cling to the remnants at least).
