    You think I want it to go higher? well to be honest... No I don't

    Now that is clearly untruthful.

    There are many people on these forums, myself included, who understand the place Gold and PM's hold in the economic landscape, and especially how much more important they are in periods of economic and financial instability.

    There are many people on these forums, myself included who do not feel the need to cut and paste absolute rubbish, lies, inaccuracies and deliberately misleading garbage to reinforce their views.

    There are many people on these forums who can reinforce their views and opinions with their own well thought out and coherant arguments.

    Unfortunately you certainly are not one of the many !!!

    what about investing in gold now asheron? you think it will make similar gains in the next 10 yrs?

    You must think Im a crackpot because I say if they carry on expanding the currency supplies all around the world like they are doing then-

    THERE IS MORE CHANCE OF GOLD PASSING $10,000 oz THAN STAYING AT $2000.

    I realise that the masses havent yet woken up to this, when they do there will be the biggest gold rush in history. The last bull run of the 70s was only the West buying gold and silver in a frenzy.

    Now its all over the world that they are expanding the paper currency supply to enormas levels.

    All that paper has to try and land on the same small pile of gold and silver.

    The more paper they add to the system the higher the price will go.

    Yes...the more you devalue the currency you value Gold in, the higher the value in devalued currency it goes.

    Wonderful........let's all celebrate :T

    If you think that is a good thing, then crackpot does not go anywhere near describing you :eek:

    I never said it was a good thing. I think its very bad to abuse the currency and cheat gold and silver the way the central banks are doing all over the world.

    I never said it was a good thing, I just want to be on the right side of this thing.

    You have invested heavily in silver for financial return, your constant ramping of them proves that and thread bumping.

    So to say you don't think it is a good thing is betty swollex.

    Just because I am doing well out of the situation that makes me a crackpot in your opinion?

    By your opinion the smartest people who are buying precious metals at todays low prices are all crackpots?

    following investment advice obtained on here, I invested heavily in Gold and Silver. I've been in clover ever since.
    Thanks for all the great advice with a special thanks to MrEnglish. He really is a financial guru and way too good for this website.

    If this is the case why have all the 'cash 4 gold' adverts disappeared?
