Already have sold. For a profit. (See http://forums.silverstackers.com/topic-28672-selling-silver-is-a-major-mistake.html ) I still expect ultimate collapse of the US economy but I think it's delusional not to admit the ball-jugglers and can-kickers have greater skill than was widely...

This is a reasonable point. For years I have expected imminent collapse of the US economy and it hasn't happened yet. Therefore I WAS WRONG. I suspect every single one of you was WRONG too, as have been the assorted gurus spruiked here. Why? (PS. Denial isn't an argument.)

What a libertarian with a brain sounds like: http://www.newleftproject.org/index.php/site/article_comments/work_learning_and_freedom In this often personal interview, renowned linguist and political commentator Noam Chomsky outlines a libertarian perspective on work and education, arguing...

It was the luck to be born skilful. And I did something that many people cannot. I accepted I'd missed the $50 top and settled for a far smaller profit. I would also have taken a loss to get out (and have done this many times share trading). I think the key thing to watch is how silver...

I bought $24K of silver in 2010 and sold it all in 2011-12 for $30K. If a 25% return in 18 months is a major mistake then I hope to keep making them. I do however have a cunning plan to buy more silver if it keeps falling. price $/kg buy kg cost $K 700 5...

i've now sold the very last of my silver -- made a few grand after opportunity costs and CGT, took a useful amount off the mortgage. the problem with riding silver to the moon is you never actually know that's where you were until you crash back to earth. good luck --- although the likelihood...

There were lots of maniacs at $50.

Bear for several yrs, but there'll be rallies in 2012 with economic news that improves Obama's election chances.

My medium-term thoughts haven't changed this year (which could be said about most posters, including those who are consistently wrong). http://forums.silverstackers.com/message-128534.html

hi hawkeye I expect giving everyone $10 million would lead to hyperinflation, and giving everyone $10 would just marginally slow deflation. The specific amount given would be critical and I don't know what amount would be best for various countries (or even if this is a good idea, I'm open to...

I think Keen's idea might have merit although I won't pretend to fully understand the implications. (I might add that some posters who dismiss the idea out of hand don't realise their lack of social success isn't likely to change if civilisation collapses -- hoping Armageddon will gift you a...

Surely the only myth is that Captain Clueless will make his fortune by buying silver at any time at any price? Oh sorry, I guess that's not a myth - only one person believes it.

Nice little Steven Keen article that will cause cognitive dissonance for some: http://www.onlineopinion.com.au/view.asp?article=12743&page=0

hi bsylvest My eyes glazed over trying to read this thread, hopefully i'm not regurgitating others' thoughts. Anyway, i think: Many silver investors are bonkers, posters here include paranoid schizophrenics and psychopaths. Silver is, more likely than not, screwed. If it went to $9 in GFC1...

GFC2 hasn't properly started, the Dow didn't even drop under 10000, but at the first whiff of trouble silver dropped like, i dunno, something that drops really really really fast. sorry but don't kid yourself; we're all doomed.

good, please to hear that, thanks. keen and soros both seem to have a refreshing streak of decency.

ha, thanks for that link, which led to this http://michaelprescott.net/hickman.htm it's obvious ayn rand's "philosophy" is mere sociopathy, but i hadn't previously read her heroes included a sadistic child-killer.

Oh ffs, it just tells you gold is in a bubble. I'm not selling yet but I'm not buying either.
