You said....." So why don't you go stack some pallets and give the BS a rest.".... This was directed at Richard Harmon. Are you suggesting that this type of labour is some how beneath you. You made a similar demeaning remark about laymen a few posts back. I have during my life time stacked pallets it is honest work and it is this kind of labour that makes the world go round. It is not the fat a*s bankers that make the world go round it is the laymen those people that you seem to think are beneath you. A lot of us " lay people " would like to see some honesty in the markets and gold could help make them honest. You come across like you feel you are way above us mere lay people so from one low down lay person. GET LOST! Lorne

"You're telling people that gold is undervalued and that is will go up. Isn't that investment advice?" Ino you should have read my posts more closely, the were prefaced with statements such as "i believe" or "do not take this as advice", I've been very careful about this, I'm no pro, slick of word like you, but you might find these informative: "predicting a future trend is not rocket science, nor investment advice" Yes, when you predict a trend, it is investment advice, and you must disclose if requested. "It is a real travesty that so many people have bought into this Y2K/gold argument. In fact, it is tantamount to outright fraud in my opinion. I almost bought into it myself last year when I heard more and more people discussing deciding to buy physical gold." exchange2000.com In reply to Mark's # 6389 "I do not want to see that happen - but I do want a mechanism to preserve wealth" "You have that already. There are any number of plays you can make in the commodities sector that would store your paper wealth quite nicely, if not make you a profit, during times of distress." When you're acting as an investment advisor, you are one, no matter if you are paid for it or not. When I offer the quotes of Rand(or others) I'm not giving anyone advice, only quoting. When you tell us you have gotten no money from anyone with a vested interest in lower price of gold when I understand you have provided services to this government on a contract basis could both be true?
