Probably one the oldest gold site on the web, since July 1995, and also one of the largest. The one strategic mistake I made was to keep the site just a comprehensive objective directory, when I could have posted all kinds of articles, advice, and advertisements that catered to the goldbugs - and made some money !

> There seems to be a certain smug satisfaction in your recent posts

In addition to avoiding most gold stocks, I have also been biting my tongue for the past three years, and just blurted out the first thing that came to mind - very unprofessional of me, of course.

In an effort to keep my site objective, I tried not to take positions, recommend stocks, seldom posted on discussion groups, etc.. When Bill Murphy asked me support GATA, I just professionally and courteously added a link to my site without taking a position. When my email gets filled with long tirades about gold, I just politely say thank you, wish them well, and hoped they enjoyed my site. I add to links to any gold related site, even questionable firms, in an effort to treat all equally and fairly. - comprehensive and objective, at the expense of my one subjective personal opinions.
