I don't know about that.... I wouldn't wait for the 'super rich' stuff to crash, they always do well. Gold shares are a better bet since if #1 happens, the system goes to hell anyway and the gains will be much bigger. JMO DAK

Ben: Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. The Toronto boat show (just finishing up) experienced poor sales this year according to pals of mine who are in the business. Also, boat sales (and prices) in Southern Florida have fallen rather significantly this year, and prices seem to be softening fast of late across the U.S. Most boat-related companies that I talk to are crying the blues. I like boat sales and prices as an amateur indicator as it has done a good job for me over the years. Seems to be a leading indicator as an economy sags and a lagging indicator as it rebounds. Best, Earlie
