<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JoeSmith, post: 725028, member: 18021&quot;]Wow, I just read this entire thread (except for the big kitco article).&nbsp; I have gold and silver, a substantial portion of my wealth.&nbsp; How high can it go?&nbsp; It can, and will, go to infinity.&nbsp; Which is to say, the dollar is doomed to become worthless.&nbsp; Not necessarily zero, but arbitrairly close to zero, to coin a math phrase.&nbsp; Why does anyone think this is good?&nbsp; You&#039;re like a person in a car speeding toward a building.&nbsp; You say wow, the building sure is getting big!&nbsp; But its not, its still the same building, it just looks bigger because you&#039;re rushing toward it.&nbsp; You&#039;ll eventually crash into it, and that won&#039;t make you happy.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then we have YAKPOO and AlexN2coins2004 arguing about have you made any money if you haven&#039;t &quot;locked in the dollar value&quot;, as if &quot;dollar value&quot; is anyway to measure anything.&nbsp; If I told you the first time I drove to Dallas I spent $100 on gas, you&#039;d have no idea how much gas I used, unless you knew WHEN I drove to Dallas the first time.&nbsp; On the other hand, if I told you the first time I drove to Dallas, I spent the value of 25 &quot;junk&quot; morgan silver dollars, you&#039;d know I used about 100 gallons of gas, because a morgan silver dollar has been worth about the same as 4 gallons of gas, (or 10 cups of coffee, or 25 postage stamps, etc etc) for the past 50 years.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So when silver gets to $100, don&#039;t get to excited.&nbsp; It will still get you 4 gallons of gas, or 10 cups of coffee, or 25 postage stamps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
