There are many uncharted waters. Uncharted in my dictionary is a place I have not yet been, being a charter myself. :)

The worst is when the tide is rising and you don't unhitch your boat. Either the boat sinks or you cannot get at the rope to cast off.

I think you will be a very rich man if you let yourself go and take advantage of this huge metal bull. I am proud to have known you when you only had pennies in your pocket. Please send me an autographed picture so I can show folks when you're name is Johnny Cash. I know a few rich people, but they are not famous. You can be the first famous one.

<What do you do to your portfolio if the probability of a repeat of that is 10%?>

Still a great question IMO... a complete meltdown of the US economy is still a distinct possibility. Although there is NO doubt in my mind that the fed would buy Trump towers if it felt it would help, between the time of the meltdown and the time the fed starts throwing money out of their windows could see quite a wipe out in the commodity markets.

That said, it wouldn't be like the 30's... a couple years later you'd be on dream street.
