I'm just grateful that BernYankMe explained to Ron Paul last month the "gold is not money". Because if it were, we'd really REALLY be in trouble now.

And on a serious note. As far as silver, [and I've been a buyer for 6 years]... it's more of an industrial metal than of financial value. But I think it's being held artificially low right now. Sorry no data.... just a gut feeling, for what it's worth.

And, lastly. I've been meaning to ask. I've been buying gold from a couple of different sources over the few years. Ebay stinks, gainesvillecoins is great. Anyone else have an opinion?

I just bought a $10 gold eagle from APMEX. (Priced as of 8/5.) Whee! Compared to their price for today, I'm already up 7.2%, after shipping cost, and I have not even received the coin yet!

Unfortunately, that won't help too much against my $100K+ stock portfolio obama loss over the last three weeks.
