It was fairly dark, much about our economy being a multi-bubble economy, the weakness in housing for various reasons (including the 50% or so cash transactions and the REITs buying up quite a bit), and inflation scares, our massive debt problem, the impending meltdown of the dollar, politicians being inept, and the prescription of getting out of real estate/bonds/securities and getting into gold and inflation-based securities, etc.

I was sitting on a gold mine!  

Gold!

Not sure if anyone mentioned the rise in metals prices over the past 3 or 5 years, I think its topped out for a while now, but I've heard more than a few investment guru's still talking about us being in the midst of a long run up on metals prices, which besides the obvious ones like gold and silver, would also likely include copper as well.

Read blogs, post questions, and the podcasts are gold!

That would be embarrassing if Greg B. caught me and posted a pic of me digging for gold
