[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 21792593, member: 73489"]Since most of us do NOT have a lifespan of 5,000 years.....gold's return over that time period isn't of much use. :D Cherry-picked data like from 1971 -- before gold had an extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime move up 20-fold -- are similarly useless. Using rolling time periods -- which eliminates timing and beginning/end period bias -- gold is a TERRIBLE long-term investment as are most commodities. [B][I]Stocks are your best long-term investment and now with yield bonds aren't bad, either.[/I][/B][/QUOTE]
