Lol...40% stocks, 25% gold, 19% real estate, 10% bonds. Hey, these guys can't add! Then they just had to throw in there there own CNBC comment that gold is overbought! Someone commented something like, "Why not just ask if investors preferred electrocution, hanging or the gas chamber." Should have added bribing the guards with gold. Kirby was that 46%? I never would have thought almost half still look at stocks.

It is a very factual message you have sent and probably the real condition of far too many portfolios across the nation. What i wonder however is if this period combined with a down trend here might find numerous people leaving for elsewhere. I was surprised to find out a friend of mine was now working on an academic project in Durban SA. They loved it there. This is a world that is getting continuously smaller as relocation prospects become vaster and vaster.
