I agree.
You are wrong about insurance. It NEVER depends on people taking out more than they put in. Just the opposite. People buy fire insurance hoping...
It has for a long time and I don't foresee capital gains tax rates ever being the same as ordinary income.
Not a simple question [for me]. I think if gold goes below $1625 and stays lower for more than a couple of days, one has to question whether that...
One of the problems I see is that the 401k turns capital gains and dividend income into ordinary income. That offsets a lot of the tax deferral.
Me too. But I've found that if you limit technical analysis to one pattern - breakouts from basing patterns in the middle of bull market moves -...
Good observations. The company match is the number one selling point for me. The rest is a bit of an illusion.
If the country literally goes under, the gold will hold its value but might also make you a target. So if you expect this to happen, don't let...
I think it is too difficult to predict the price of gold by looking at events. I've been watching gold build a cup and handle formation, visible...

Time will tell. I think you are wrong. I just want to show that hyperinflation is by no means the only outcome, but I have allowed that...
Probably a mistake
Well, it wasn't a complete loss because instead I started collecting some TPG graded modern gold commemorative coins that I like a lot and will...
I believed a local coin dealer when he talked me out of starting a collection of circulated $10 gold back when they sold for about $200 each. :(
I've said many times that I think the probability for deflation or inflation is about 50/50 depending on policy decisions that haven't been made...
But so far no evidence has been presented to show that the short positions are naked. The investment side of the business does have clients you know.
Haven't you heard? It's been going on for 40 years to hold down the price of silver. :dead-horse: Of course, the simple answer is that maybe...
If this is the only way you can save, then there is nothing wrong with doing so. But I wouldn't have cut down the 401k contribution to do it...
Very nice!
Everything in life is risky. In fact, it is so risky that nobody gets out alive. My understanding of basis trading is that the client pays for...
