<p>[QUOTE="Endeavor, post: 2379967, member: 60292"]Well to be clear, I didn't suggest that they keep it. Nor did I say it was a good investment. All I said was that it may have some long term potential as far as gaining a premium. I would be crazy to say it may have long term potential and then say you should keep it as an investment, lol. Investments should be made when the investor feels confident there will be an increase in value, not when there is uncertainty (as in 'may have potential').</p><p><br /></p><p>Lastly, I would be cautious about using selective past results to make comparisons on future potential. I'm not saying I disagree that stocks or bonds would probably be better long term, but there is no guarantee. Had someone decided to put the $100 towards Enron or AIG stocks/bonds I'm pretty sure they would have rather had the note instead. And yes I know, diversify, but I think you get the point - there are no guarantees.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
