<p>[QUOTE="tommybee, post: 921686, member: 24999"]Fools - I forgot to add that you don't have to buy at the lowest point and sell at the highest point to make money on your investments. You just have to sell for more than you bought it for. I been burned before because I got greedy. I thought that if my investment just doubled in value then its going to triple for sure! Alas, not always the case. My goal is to make my profit and move on. If you try to sell at the zenith you are going to drive yourself crazy and get squashed. Make well researched investment decisions and then sell when you have met the profit level you hoped for when you first invested.</p><p> </p><p>For instance, I've bought a lot of silver in the past six months. I've paid, on average, about 17 dollars an ounce. If silver goes up to $34 dollars an ounce, I'd probably sell half to get my original investment back. Then I'll roll that money into something else. Hell, I might sell all of it if there was another investment I liked better.... </p><p> </p><p>The $800 an ounce for gold was a random number. The point I was trying to make was that the price of gold will eventually fall. Its a bubble right now. I'm not saying it won't hit 2k an ounce. Maybe it will, but silver is the safer bet for me. I say silver is more likely to hit $34 an ounce than gold is to hit 2k an ounce. </p><p> </p><p>Am I right? We'll find out soon enough.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
