That's the problem with gold....you have to find a way to change it to something useful without getting raped. Brokers make $$$ on both ends...why else are they pushing it so hard??(quoted from post at 12:32:20 04/16/13) I'd sooner have the cash,you can do something with that.Who are you going to sell gold to?
There not going to give you market value for your gold.Ever try to sell gold jewelery,you would be luckey to get 60% of it's value.
(quoted from post at 14:50:44 04/16/13) Yep. I get my financial investment advice at Tractor Supply and my medical advice at McDonalds. Always lots of free suggestions.
Exactly....as those who bought at $1800 are now finding out. It is easy to like gold if you bought it at $300 or less LOL! Silver is the same way, I had a buddy that was chasing the silver dream back in the 80's and bought on leverage. He turned old fast.....(quoted from post at 20:14:36 04/16/13) Gold and silver are commodities, not unlike corn, soybeans, barley and crude oil, all traded... and bought and paid for with US Dollars and priced in said denomination. Nothing more.
The run up in the price of gold has simply been a reflection on people's perception and demand for gold, not it's value. As such... it's now perceived to be worth less... and people are dumping their holdings... and the price is taking a dump.

(quoted from post at 21:26:40 04/17/13) You can go on buying gold or silver or whatever you like... but reality is this. If/when the crap hits the fan, the government of the day will find a way to get your gold the same way the government of Greece has raided bank accounts in that country so they can write down some bad debt... so don't think you'll be immune.
I tend to think that if there is a widespread collapse your gold won't really be worth a whole lot. If someone is starving they'll have more need for food than gold... or oil... or tools to grow food. Gold wouldn't be high on my priority list.
