<p>[QUOTE="treehugger, post: 1338719, member: 28451"]It's amazing how this thread has evolved. First, we had the message of the OP, which, in my interpretation was basically: gold had a good year relative to other assets; I like gold; I am happy gold had a good year and am taking this opportunity to rib those who might not be big fans of gold. So, when gold has a bad year, just start a thread that says, "See, I told you so." Nothing wrong with that, in my opinion. It's pretty harmless fun.</p><p><br /></p><p>We then proceeded to get lectures on portfolio diversification (which most people should already know, given all the information available today), personal attacks and other posts that were never the intent of the thread in the first place. It seemed as though the original message was simple enough. Maybe I missed something, but I really don't understand why the OP was taken so seriously and people became so defensive. Note to self: some members of CoinTalk don't have a great sense of humor.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
