<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikem2000, post: 2221460, member: 30574&quot;]For me, it is strictly and odds thing. I am well aware things could go different than I am thinking, but I am certainly on the correct side of history.&nbsp; You just can&#039;t control everything.&nbsp; All you can do is take your best shot.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as the all-in crowd,&nbsp; yes, I think they are the most reckless, and most likely to have an unhappy outcome.&nbsp; Those folks were telling me they were all in,&nbsp; so I was not assuming anything. It really did end badly for them. We have a large stacker crowd where I work, so I know a lot of those folks who got clobbered personally.</p><p><br /></p><p>For the preppers, I really never had much negative to say to the ones that were diversified and covering all the bases. I mean you really can&#039;t argue with that.&nbsp; For me however, I just never thought is was worth the effort since you just can&#039;t plan for everything. Plus, I never felt it was worth planning to be the King of the disaster, it is still a disaster. I would rather focus on positioning myself for the good times. Makes sense to me.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as being diversified,&nbsp; I have always been all about that and agree it is positive.&nbsp; I am against adding what I believed was overpriced commodities (and was correct) to the mix just for the sake of diversification. I have always believed the time to add commodities was when they are trading very cheap (below the cost of production). That will give you the best chance for success.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>BTW,&nbsp; I think I told you before,&nbsp; I still have a small amount of Gold left over, when I sold my holdings. I also picked up $100 face since they price is getting down there, and I really like coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
