RE: thirdage.com The advice given above doesn't pass my feel-good-about-it test. First of all, can you really believe someone who says that foreign stocks (# 3 on his list as far as safety) are safer than corporate bonds, income producing properties, and REITs? Foreign stocks haven't been too "safe" over the last few weeks, have they. Also, I wouldn't say that gold coins/bullion is safer than 90-day T-Bills. I bought some gold in 1986 and have lost about 68% of my money - not very safe, eh? My T-bills have just about doubled my money over that time period. I do like his Mediteranean cruise idea, though. Best wishes, I2

OK, you convinced me. Tomorrow, I'm going to sell all my stocks and short them instead. I'm going to buy gold coins, bullion, gold stocks, and enough gold chains to put around my neck that it would make Mr. T proud. I'm going to buy puts on every index I can get a ticker on. And I will buy real estate. I think I have that Carlton Sheets 1-800 number around here somewhere... Oh yea, I will also buys REIT's, but not just any old REIT's - only REIT's that buy ghettos and slum housing because it will be full with people like me who overreact during a market correction. Just kidding, Vol
