    It’s actually pretty amazing that they
    can’t find anyone to fill an unskilled
    position that pays $25 an hr, but with
    the on going inflation it’s more like $13
    the new world we live in.

    Interestingly, gold turned around from mid-day losses and rallied bigtime up $40 even as everything else tanked. As bonds rallied (yields fell), gold turned up.

    Let's see if it's a pattern.
    If crypto is dead with a Fed Funds rate of 3-4% and a 10-year approaching or above 4%, gold may have legs for a move to $2,200.

    That's pretty good pay, I'd do it if I had to, not the kind of work I've normally done but that's okay! :D Some look down on washing dishes but the way I look at it is this, any job is honorable! thumbupp.gif

    Money is money how ever you choose to make it, it this economy no one wants to
    work, had a unique experience at my local
    Chili’s they actually have a robot delivering
    food to the table, if people don’t want to work
    what are places supposed to do ?

    Traditionally the answer is "pay more" and/or "improve the working conditions".

    I've been trying to buy up iSeries Treasury Bonds.
    what fun.

    I remember when gold was $400 and Platinum in the $700 range.
    So I used to collect both.
    Then they shifted up to Gold $800 range. I held off .. but then started buying.
    Around $1200 Gold I bought options to $1550 but sold those at $1500.
    and bought some nice gold coins that I didn't have.
    But I haven't bought any since then.

    Probably in 20 years it will be $3000/oz
    but then I might be dead by then too ....
    so I bought a new pickup truck recently instead of bullion. :)

    of course, I also realized I'm on the US Mint's Enrollment program of various Silver coins (didn't they also do gold coins at one time??). So .. I guess I am still buying ... but those just go from the mail box a safe :)

    Not sure, but I don’t see why not as it is programmed to go to a specific table but
    from what I observed it brought the food out
    and the waitress served it, but they got this
    Afar do anything is possible :)

    I believe gold will trend up slowly over at least within the next 12 months, there will be fits and dips but the trend will be upward. I also think $2300/oz by November is plausible (but my opinion like everyone else is pretty useless). If inflation maintains at 8% then you know your $100 bill will buy you $92 in goods a year from now. Ask yourselves this question > which choice is more likely to at least hold its value, and has the potential to yield you up to 30% in gains? Cash money is guaranteed to lose buying power, not maybe but positively. Gold on the other hand seems to be the choice.

    Are there any more choices besides those two? I am thinking there will be some buying opportunities along this journey. Some might panic and sell, the uncertainly brings a little excitement for me. You could lose and lose it all or double up.

    Gold will dip like $125 then around late nov it will get to $2000. Not enough to move the needle unless you guy a crap load and sell at $2000 Remember before you buy you must have a selling price. believe me, selling is hard to do so tell your wife or husband the selling price if you need a push. Good luck. Anyone can buy you need to be smart to sell. It gets easier and easier just pull the trigger as soon as it hits the selling price

    I went to church this AM and found that there were many young marrieds moving back with their parents to conserve money. I am fortunate. My children hate me, so they would never come to live with me. Well, my son would, but he done well. He's 51 now and has done very well. Maybe I ought to move in with him.
    As far as PMs, I don't tell anyone about that, especially family.

    I just looked at the price of the Gold Eagle 4 coin Proof set .... yikes.
    I used to buy those sets. Not anymore.
    I really think they will be worth more in the future, but the outlay of cash nowadays is too much as I can use the $$ for more fun things like food and gas and a spaceX trip to space. lol
