<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collector1966, post: 1039547, member: 17919&quot;]Stocks are a sucker&#039;s bet. With all the creative accounting these days, you can&#039;t trust financial reports anymore, even if you can wade through them, and the House always wins. Even big-name companies go bad, and insiders can bail before passive-investing outsiders know what the heck is going on.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as metals versus stocks go, over the last 40 years, since around the time I bought my first gold coin, gold has risen from $35/ounce to $1350, for a 38X gain. Over the same period, the Dow has gone from about 900 (and several membership changes) to about 11000, for a gain of about 12-13X.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
