I had been telling my brother to buy silver for 2-3 years now. Finally last Spring he bought a few ounces. Then last Friday, he called and said he bought 200 ounces, I think, and is ready to buy more.. He has never messed with it or stocks, bonds, etc. before.. Btw, He is a rancher and does not have a lot of bucks or time to chase outside "investments".. He has bet on himself up to now.. So silver bullion is his first "outside" bet.. And I bet, :), there are a lot of people out there that are like him.. I think these anecdotal stories truly mean something.. :)

So when I saw him recently he was asking me about gold stocks because I think he feels like he missed the bullion train. What did you tell him? also... Her friend said "Because he has all that gold and silver stuff and everyone else put their money in bogus stuff that isn't doing anything." If teenagers are starting to take notice then I think we are getting closer. Ooooh....With info like floating around at large in the community please be aware of security (personal and belongings).

Majors vs Gold as far back as far as 11 years.. Not seeing the leverage on balance.. Explorers have been lots more fun.. juniors have been better. Barrick Baddest of the bad for reasons we all know.. Kinross Agnico-Eagle Yammana Goldcorp Iamgold Eldorado Some bright spots... Sangold Seabridge (Should have listened to Jim Willie sub 3.00, think it was sub 2 actually) I'm not disputing gold... USD still going to lose ground and race to bottom looks set to continue... or trade wars... had a whack of bullion fund CGL.TO last go.. but the stocks are under forming over a long time... and I really have a feeling it's because you can buy bullion funds now.. Days of lining up for may are done.. Download a few iTunes.. Order some Eagles from Kitco.. all from Starbucks :O) Of course maybe many are simply basing.. :O)
