I am more and more becoming an advocate for diversifying into gold. And I don’t mean certificates, I mean physical, you-can-hold-it-in-your-hands-and-look-at-it, gold. Personally, I’ve always been a bit of a mattress stuffer anyway - - I look sideways at banks or anyplace else the scumbag politicians can get their hands on my money (or “freeze my accounts”) without a gunfight.

While I wouldn't criticize your diversifying into gold I always felt if you can't eat it, drink it, sleep under it or shoot it then a gold bar makes for a cold companion.

Bigtime. Until they outlaw it. Again. (Or try to.)
