Re: protecting ourselves financially....We finally gave up the ghost today, so to speak, and sold most of our mutual funds....Just can't think that the current Adm will do anything constructive, and both of us agree that nothing makes any sense right now. We can't believe ANYTHING the WH says, we can only watch what actions they take...and nothing right now they are doing is helping the situation. Even cans of money in the back yard won't help if our money is under inflation attack.

It's all academic anyway, all I can do is try to react to protect myself to the best of my ability. I'm getting better at shorting. Haven't figured out how to protect myself from Zimbabwe style inflation or gold confiscation yet should those things come to pass. I'm working on that and flabbergasted that I have to contemplate these possibilities. Indicates to me that there is something lacking in the denial approach to various and sundry problems. Move along folks, nothing to see here.
