    the problem is, if you dont go to ebay, where you gonna go?

    i searched craigs list in my and surrounding states, there was nothing selling, only wanted.

    I went to my local pawn shops, there buying silver and gold for 10% under spot and selling Eagles for 22 bucks a piece.....LOL then they give you the excuss that they bought em when silver was over 20 bucks, but you know its bs cuzz they have been selling those same Eagles in the same display case for the last 5+ years

    the bars dont HAVE to be aasayed, buyers can use their judgement, and if so, big deal, it cost me the price of a 12 pack of beer to do so.

    and sometimes you can be surprised, my last 6+ pound bar assayed had .009% gold in it too. ;)

    goldbugs as we are called bought it when it was under 600 as well as silver when it was 5-6 bucks an oz. and we actually hold something other than a piece of paper.

    ask the millions of people who owned Enron how there doing working at 7-11 now or the really smart ones that owned chevy or ford.

    are looking through the world in enron-style-glasses where stocks went from 250 bucks a share to 30 cents in a few months? must be.....

    and remember, old kenny boy lay owned 14 houses in aspen alone, as you begged your wife and family for more money to invest in this "to good to be true deal of a lifetime" buying more stocks as it shot to a couple of bucks a share....

    i think the joke is on you ;(

    the Dow on 10-09-07 above 14,000
    the Dow on 10-09-08 8582 that is down 39%

    you have lost almost 40% of your retirement in 1 year, and the market continues to go down hundreds of points in a weekly basis.

    Ford and GM are in big trouble of going under and cant get loans to keep them afloat, GM shares dropped 22% today at less than 6 bucks a share and lost 16 billion in the 2nd quarter, Ford fell 8% to less than 2.50 a share

    the country of Iceland is bankrupt

    one third of the world is eating well, one third getting by, the last third are starving to death

    there is a bank run in Europe, dozens of banks have locked their doors because thousands are flocking to them demanding their money.

    NEW YORK - In a sign of the times, the National Debt Clock in New York City has run out of digits to record the growing figure. As a short-term fix, the digital dollar sign on the billboard-style clock near Times Square has been switched to a figure — the "1" in $10 trillion. It's marking the federal government's current debt at about $10.2 trillion.

    Cost of 911 30 billion not counting Homeland Security budget of over 100 billiion
    Katrina 60 billion
    bankers and wall street bailout 700 billion to a trillion

    Schwarzenegger wants 7-40 billion to help California, Schwarzenegger said the crisis meant California, the most populous and wealthiest US state, was unable to access routine financing used to make payments to schools, local government and law enforcement.

    As Washington lawmakers debate as massive, $700 billion, bailout for Wall Street firms that invested in mortgages, CEOs have come under new scrutiny for their multi-million-dollar salaries, even when their companies have suffered.

    The bailout plan is likely to have limits on the so-called "Golden Parachutes" for executives forced to leave.

    ABC News, in collaboration with James F. Reda and Associates, complied a list of some of the companies in the headlines today and looked at just how much money some of these CEOs are taking home.

    Wars and economic recessions and depressions are the most important engines of wealth and power expansion that the global banking families have. Hence several families have profited from most wars over the last two hundred years, and from the distress caused by economic crisis like the Great Depression. To deliberately profit from, and worst to deliberately work to set up and cause wars and depressions, to enrich oneself is a very deep and sick form of evil. It is not surprising that many involved in these families are said to be satanic (Lucifer worshipers) in their beliefs. These are the evil criminals that control our politicians, our stock markets, our banking and insurance institutions, our industries, and our mainstream media.
    You know you are living in most interesting times when more and more people are using terms like "new Great Depression" and "World War III". www.rense.com/general8...

    all this going chaos and McCain speaks of this 100 year war and Obama says we will keep up the war on terror in afganistan and Iran.

    Such a terrible shame that this is the best we have, out of over 300 million people and this is what we have???? pathetic

    God we need Ron Paul right now

    I, like many old people say, thank God Im old

    well ive played both the market and bought silver and gold over the last 20 years and i have to say that ive made and kept more of my own money with gold and silver than i ever had with the groups of professionally managed funds.

    heres the kicker........you have to include inflation

    in the 8 years bush has been in office (not that the dems will do any better) the dollar has lost 40 cents of buying power.
