<p>[QUOTE="mikem2000, post: 2123471, member: 30574"]Well hello folks, long time. This post just had to bring me out of hiding. It seems you are equating your poor performance in metal investing with bad luck. This is not only wrong, it is an extremely poor way to look at things as you will be doomed to repeat the same mistakes over and over again.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, what bad luck did you have with metals????? NONE whatsoever!!!!. The commodity performed exactly as espected. Over the longer term, Ag has followed inflation. NO bad luck there. That is what you would expect. The cost of Ag now is now approximately the cost of production, which is where it should be, so no bad luck there either. </p><p><br /></p><p>The problem you had was not bad luck, it was BAD decisions. This is what ever stacker needs to man up to. </p><p><br /></p><p>Most stackers will not do that, they would rather blame it on the boogeyman or write it off as bad luck, rather than admit they were wrong. This is a very dangerous attitude to have as it does not allow for corrective action.

The whole point of it is the ability to learn from failures. It seems to be the only thing you have "learned" is to keep on stackin' </p><p><br /></p><p>Sooo......
