i do not think in terms of best vs worst time, because insurance is insurance, a sacrifice made today for peace of mind going forward

i am at Message 24919500

and because i believe the gold selldown is fund tinged, i am taking the gift, not unlike reaching out to ship wrecked, taking their watches and bracelets and bangles, and waving bye bye, knowing full well the the struggling bodies in the water are undeserving of redemption and not meant for salvation.

we must not interfere in the biblical work that cycles through, we must, as palin had mentioned, pray, and then, she left unsaid, prey

Well, unless Gordon Brown will announce that he will sell more of Britian's gold, there won't be a best time again.

Or, you could buy a little bit of various interest or distribution paying stocks, like royalty trusts, and use the income every month to buy a little physical and some miners or gold ETFs.

Sort of the old "dollar cost averaging" way of accumulating stocks, but buying gold.

To some degree, it beats waiting for the optimum time.

Why ethics left business? Why business used to have standards but ethics left it and we came to the point where an investor states that he isn't comfortable in the company of others investors?

Is it the school system?

Is it immigration, that attracted people -say to accountancy- without core values?

Is it the legal system that is corrupted?

Is it religiosity that left the lives of modern society and now 'greed is good', and business by any means is the norm?
