my focus: silver/gold now, post-$-crash later
I'm spending too much time and energy thinking, talking, writing about post-$-crash world.
Plus, there's alot of disagreement about it.
But there's no disagreement, in my little part of the Journalism 2.0 world, about silver and gold.
So I'm going to concentrate on talking about buying silver and gold long, period.

home storage, how much is 2 much...
home storage, how much is 2 much...
Someone had $750k silver stolen a few days ago, circa June 15, 2011.
I would say that's too much.
What do you have to say?
Above whatever threshold you decide on:
* what country do you store it in?
* where do you store it in that country?
* who do you trust to watch it?
* is there safety in numbers by having yours stored with others?
* if so, where?
* James Turk of the starship "GoldMoney" and libertarians believe it will eventually be used as money, so how does that factor in?
PLEASE COMMENT.

Let's assume libertarianism is right...
Let's assume libertarianism is right...
The people own the gold and silver.
There is no inflation.
Everyone's best efforts are valuable enough to sustain them and allow them to pass something on to their descendants.
How do we keep the sociopaths running the world now from reemerging as they have over and over the past 5k+ years?
How do we to keep this fiat frenzy from fooling future folks?
Maybe the internet and journlism 2.0, keeping the people informed, will be enough.

let's get real about timing gold/silver buys
let's get real about timing gold/silver buys
Kirsti Hogg of facebook (Why buy gold? (and silver!) said it best, "I don't have a crystal ball."
I said in reply that I had one but that it was cracked like the crystal egg in the movie "Risky Business".
Some contributors to the site want to wait for silver to be in the twenties and gold to be around $1400.
But what if the market goes up before reaching these bottoms.
What does one do, wait for the next dips that may not come either.
I think about what it means to be investing in gold and silver long.
To me it means trading fiat currency, which is what they want to me to keep, for gold and silver which they don't want me to keep.
Every ounce I have is one they can't manipulate to scare small investors into giving up what they have.
They're so sure they can get it back they're willing to sell what they value most!
How's that for sociopathic overconfidence?

food prices, etc. tell real story on $ value
food prices, etc. tell real story on $ value
There are ways to hold gold and silver prices down.
There is a strategic oil reserve to hold down gasoline prices and pay a little interest on the debt.
But there is no strategic food reserve, prices way up - only so much can be blamed on supply and demand.
And there is no strategic bathroom tissue reserve, prices way up - only so much can be blamed on supply and demand.
And there is no way to raise interest rates without increasing the debt.
These things tell me the dollar is over valued and that in the long run this will show up in gold and silver prices.
But the mainstream media is alive and well because there is sill a tiny demand for gold and silver in the investment markets, less than 0.5% (correct me if I'm wrong!)
This confirms the absence of a bubble.
In fact, James Turk, recently this month, June, 2011, said there not only isn't a bubble but that there never will be because people will end up using their gold and silver for money.

technicals still valid with current natural disasters, etc.?
technicals still valid with current natural disasters, etc.?
(written Sunday, June 26, 2011)
Some have argued, for thousands of years, that their time was like no other, and then ignored what technicals there were, if any, and went out and "lost their shirts."
So I will ask some questions:
* what happens to technicals if economic events speed up even more in 2011 as natural disasters have in 2011, keeping in mind that natural events effect economic events (like post-Tsunami Japanese radiation reaching Seattle, WA, usa)?
* how does the advent of atomic weapons and atomic power, only since 1945, factor into the equation?
* can the technicals take into account sociopathic, suicidal (per Max Keiser) gold and silver manipulation, which I believe has picked up lately (May, 2011 to June, 2011 as of June 24, 2011, is the longest attack so far on silver and gold)?
* what journalism 2.0 sites technicals are saying gold and silver are in a bubble and what mainstream media technicals are saying that gold and silver are not in a bubble?
* does it make sense to give more weight to the FREE OPINIONS AND ADVICE of experienced people and newcomers that follow more than technicals in both the mainstream media and journalism 2.0.?
* what are some sites that are followers of technicals and more and both media and nuclear issues and natural disaster acceleration and free opinions and free advice and opinion sharing?
