This whole gold thing is really bugging me.

So much talk and very few answers.

Personally, I took a position in gold (Kruggerands to be exact) when Au was selling for $317.

I took the position based on wanting to own something that was universally accepted as a valued commodity, no matter what the state of any economy.

I have no particular reason to have sold it in the past, nor do I see any reason to sell it today. It was not bought as an investment and I am certain there are others out there that have similar circumstances to mine.

Does that define me as a "gold bug" or not. If so, why? If not, why?
