<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikem2000, post: 2163894, member: 30574&quot;]Folks lost everything in &#039;29 mostly because of high leverage and lack of a balanced portfolio. Precautions must be taken. The folks who followed sound investment principles recovered. Please remember, I am in no way recommending an ALL -IN philosophy with equities. Just as I believe ALL-IN with metals is stupid, I feel the same with equities.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as the next downturn being much worse than 2008, well, no one knows for certain, but the odds are against that and I always find playing the odds usually works out.&nbsp; Also remember, as bad as 2008 was for equities, it was still not as bad as holding Silver when it plummeted from near $50 to $16. So what if THAT happens again????&nbsp; There are just no guarantees. They best you can do is look at the odds, take your best shot, pay your money and take your chances[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
