I spent a few years in the mid west in little towns that mined lead. At one time, the real estate investors there probably thought “we use lead for everything, no way it could fail as a commodity. If I hold onto this ...
Someone just told me that their 401k just sits there. It doesn't send them a check every month. Sure, they said, they get a growing amount (as long as the stock market doesn't crash) but when I saw their numbers, it w...
