i called my broker at 3:45pm edt, i just hung up. It is rough out there gg, he is IN PAIN. All i could tell him was that your young(i am 27 years older then him) He had about 25% of his 401k in GLD , but otherwise it has been hell for him. He said, people don't know how this business chews you up and spits you out in times like this. He said max, you have the right to go shout out "I told you so!" And i said, now that it has happened, the last thing i want to say is that. i said, on these messageboards that i type, when i was ranting doom and gloom, i was DESPERATELY trying to WARN people. But we doomers end up talking to ourselves on threads like USD and Epic and CFZ, as we are not heards many other places. gg, i just HOPE we have gotten our message through to some or more than some of the lurkers, because then i can say we accomplished something. Maybe now people will know why i attacked the pollyanas that turned up here now and then, as i simply was hoping i could wake these people up or at least shut them up. My broker went home today in semi shock, and so are a lot of other people. i will never say "i told you so" to any of these, i am just sad it is TOO LATE now to warn people, there has been a bloody crash on the FreeWay, bodies broken, blood dripping--it is not good. Is it time to break out my ancient "Life is a Bitch and then you die" t-shirt??? Nah, Not now. i think i rather put on my hand painted with the face of Bob Marley and "He No Dead" beneath, on the front , and a hand-painted Golden Sun on the back, t-shirt. Later, Max
