If you pull everything out of the market then you're at risk with a
weak dollar/inflation scenario. It's not an easy decision right now
but strategic metals and oil should do OK unless we have a global
depression. Cash is king in a depression of course, but which
currency and how to invest in it, is an interesting problem.

Be quiet and listen to Wayne, Sweetie. He knows what he is talking

Pretty good come back for a ditsy broad. Tell us again why you chose
this newsgroup to drop in on. Your social life must really suck if you
choose to hang out with a bunch of cranky old farts like us.

This Jim is the cocksucker.
