OT - Have been posting far less but have enjoyed reading your posts again of late. Hope you stick around and maybe put in one post weekly (more if you're generous). How's the health and personal life? What motivated you to start posting again?

My tendonitis is much better since I've been eating clean for 6+ months now, but still have a bit more work to do. I avoid posting as I don't want to fall back into the trap where my hands start to hurt again. Gold is finally getting a pulse again. I avoided the 2008 downturn, but the last 2 years have not been fun. But they did force me to make some changes that I should have undertaken years ago in my habits, health and job situation (or at least my wife's - going back to school after being a stay at home mother for the past 10 years). I'm tired of worrying about the value of money. I'm tired of this rigged market. I'm tired on trying to live solely on my income generated from the market. First 10 years of the gold bull was life changing. Allowed me to quit my job and trade for a living, pay off my house and allow my wife to stay at home w/the kids. Pullback has given me more perspective on what's important and what I'm going to do if gold goes to fresh highs. (when).

Looks like you still feel 1000-1100 is yet in the cards? You need 1550-1600 area to be breached to change your mind?

Well, this is sort of a ridiculous trend but I have really been enjoying being able to read your posts again.....& my tendonitis is also much better...lol

But my improvement probably has a lot more to do with cortisone & pt than healthy eating.

I too have suffered quite a bit in the last 20 months due to the gold/silver sell off. We finally appear to be regaining our footing. As usual, I've learned a lot over the last few years, but the tuition is steep!

Reading you has always been an enriching experience. Hope you continue to post.....It's funny, 5 min ago I read this post below and thought of you.
I'm sure you could give a pointer or two on mirrors.
