Why would we buy gold at its peak?
I bought some 4 years ago. The concept is to buy low, sell high. |

I'd rather have another AR or Garand.
I can play with them and they go bang. A gold coin.....just looks pretty

Well when silver gets back up to $22 an ounce I'll sell some and buy gold. Watch me, I know how to invest!

Gold doesn't peak, the purchasing power remains the same, only Fruadulent reserve notes inflate however because most contracts are in FRNs you can convert Gold to the hyperinflated FRN and pay off morgages and the like. |

I've been telling folks to buy PMs for six years now, and the same people have been saying it's topped all the way up.
It's just getting started. The liquidity bubble manifested itself first in stocks, then bonds, then housing, then energy, now precious metals. Anybody else see a pattern there? I sincerely hope the PM bull has a few years to run, I think the next bull market will be in beans and bullets. |

You had the chance to buy at 308, 545 and now 556. Don't make me slap you when you get your last chance at $762! It's the DaVinci code of precious metals. |

Geeze...anyone remember the Gold Rush of the early 80s?
Wasn't it some staggering amount like $200 an ounce? Of course still not as good as the pre86 registered sear bought for $200 + tax stamp. |

you can't eat gold.
Although you can always, always find some fool to sell it to. Which would go a long way toward explaining the current price rise. |

Meh... crappy investment.
Someone get me the figures on the rare "element" "PRE86-DIAS" on a per ounce basis comparing 1990, 1995, 2000, and 2005. I'll show you an investment that out-performed gold bigtime! ETA: Shit. My point is much less witty and interesting, given that someone else fucking posted it first. Bastard.

Gold peaked at about $850/oz in 1980, but adjusted for inflation, that's about the same as $2200 today. Gold is not an investment. It's a hedge. |

I have been selling my gold at these prices.
I have about 20 ounces from the families gold mine, from working it all of my summers in high school. They let me keep whatever I found, and I kept it until recently, and have been selling it an ounce at a time. |

For the "Yoots" among us, the 80's gold rush was NFA tax stamps. Ever pass on an M16 because 2K was far too much money? They were worth only 500 a year before.....
Seriously, don't buy gold, buy mining stocks. If I bought my company stock when gold was around 200/oz, I could have quintipled my money. But the CEO is still buying company stock, if that is a clue about how the smart money sees things. |

Yep, you can't eat gold. Or Federal Reserve Notes. Or bullets. Or Ar-15s. The "fools" pushing up the price now are probably big 401(k) fund managers, foreign governments like China and India, among others... Might be too late to get in on this ride... |
