True, 3x in gold would have been good. But Zenbu is going much better than that. If I'd loaded up on gold, I'd have missed the fun of other things, and the profits, and having done something useful [hordes of people love it] and enabling for various people. Ingram Micro, Cisco [and Broadcom ... grrrr..] have profited from me buying Linksys WRT54GLs. Speaking of which, another load is due for delivery now.

And maybe the USA would have caused a gold crash = cut spending, avoided wars, laid off millions of kleptocrats, got back to work, stopped illegal immigrants, invented flying pigs ...

If you think gold is good, have a look at Apple. And lots of other things.

Incidentally, there was a New Zealand company called Goldcorp a couple of decades ago... which had a nasty denouement.

mq is still waiting for interest rate to rise, per his post circa 2003 :0)

he was right about cash, but wrong about the flavor of cash.

<<I figure that I might as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb and that it will be better to be a cash owner than a borrower when the interest rates start rising again. He has given everyone holding $$ quite a thrashing and the whimpering is loud.>>
