I am not anti-gold. In fact, I have been a gold investor for nearly 20 years. At one time, nearly 70% of my invested funds were in gold shares. Now, about 10%. But I am not a goldbug, goldbugger, gold freak or whatever else one can call people who are prepared to go to war in support of an investment which they clearly don't understand. Yes, I am anti-goldbug but not anti-gold. Please note the distinction. I am prepared to take my chances in the world as it is. I don't have to change it in order to suit my own misguided and pre-conceived ideas as to how the world should be --- like goldbugs choose to do. I therefore don't have to label others as crooks and frauds etc to suit my purpose. I believe that others, including the government and the major institutions, are doing the best they can in a world which is far from perfect. Evil to him who evil thinks.
