[Diana in Wisconsin]

Ya snooze, ya lose! ;)

Dad & I came into an inheritance from Grandpa in 2000. It was ‘found’ money, and neither of us needed it for any sort of emergency at the time, so we sunk it into PMs.

Dad and I played the Commodities Markets while I was growing up. You had to use the newspaper, a phone (attached to the kitchen wall!) and a No. 2 Ticonderoga pencil, it was THAT long ago, LOL! I spent my allowance on pork bellies and cocoa futures, versus nail polish and teen magazines.

I learned at the knew of the master. :)

In the early 80’s I had a neighbor that kept odd hours and could be seen going to his detached shed at 2am many nights. I befriended him and after two years he confided in me what he was doing. He was hedging currency around the world. His tools? A teletype and a rotary phone. Guy had a knack for it and died leaving his kids a fortune. Catch was he had it stashed in several other countries.
