Re: "Wish me luck 'cause I'm going to the wall on this one!"

Good luck. Hopefully, you'll have better luck on gold than I did. I bought gold coins in 1986. Since then, the price of gold has fallen by 70%. Even more pathetic is the opportunity loss. I could have increased my money by 400% or more, just by investing in the S&P 500.

So, for each $0.30 I have in gold, I could have had $4.00 worth of ownership in the top 500 U.S. companies.

Oh, well, live and learn.

Best wishes,

I2
