As for me, I would rather own Confederate money than the stock certificates of many current companies. At least the Confederate money now has scarcity value. Indeed, if I had put all the money I had when I was a child into Confederate money, which was selling at 10 cents a bill, it would have been the best investment I could have made. Next to that, Star Wars toys in original blister packs. I knowe about these because I bought some for $1.00 each to save to give to children on their birthdays. Recently found that the one we never gave away is quoted at $65. Nope. You can have the market. I am heavily invested in gas and oil, but short the major stock indexes, with LEAP puts on some financials.
