Yeah, you are right. People still look at me like I have three heads when I tell them how good those two have been to me in the last year or so. I still don't really like either, but I'm willing to go where I need to go to make money, I'm flexible. My sister asked me recently how I was doing in the market. I told her, OK, because I'd done so well with gold and with a particular bond fund I'd had a big investment in and told her what the return was. Silence...then she says "Why don't you ever tell me about these things?!" I reminded her that not only did I tell her, I told her three times that I was going into it and why and what she should do. Meanwhile she completely disregarded my advice and took her money into some big name brokerage, wound up fully invested that day in some stock mutual funds that some broker trainee recommended and is sitting on some cap losses. Oh well, it's times like that I wish I had a tape to play back of certain conversations.
