The point with metal is it is a hedge in the drop in the dollar.
Treasuries are just dollars and if the dollar gets devalued your
treasuries are devalued. That is why silver coins are 13x the face
value right now.

A hedge is fine, but putting _all_ your marbles in one place isn't a
particularly good strategy. You miss the inevitable upside for one thing.


We all should agree with that. I don't even keep all my money in the
same bank.


Doubtful. :) I don't keep my money in banks. I use the credit union. I had
BofA, but I don't like their policies.



If you travel a lot, it's not a bad idea to have an account at one of
the big national banks so you can use non-foreign ATMs and save the
$3.00 fee for getting your own cash out. Other than that, though, credit
unions are the way to go.

Understood. But I've read in Combat Arms that if you are going to

full auto machine pistol. :)

M1A, get the *******s 500 yards out. ;-)

I sold my m1A and Garrand. The money was too hard to pass up. I enjoy
my FN-FAL and .303 brits, though.

And concerning rapid fire? Learn to bump fire them or get a Hellfire
trigger.

They're legal, but dont' work very well on bolt action's though.

A 308 or 30-06 is pretty uncontrollable on full auto. The 22rf is
really about like shooting one of those pneumatic guns at the carnival
where you try to shoot out the red star.
The only place I went wrong with this, as an investment, is, I should
have sprung the extra $500 for the suppressed model. Then it would
sound about like those arcade guns too. Those are going for over $10k
now too.


Here's the guy who directed the build of my C-75 Shadow Custom...Angus
Hobdell...firing against a few guys with full auto weapons. There's a
bit on bump fire, too.

My CZ Shadow Custom is all black, though...those gold grips are too
uptown for my taste.


What ever happened to that prize Sig 226 you were gushing over a few
weeks ago?

I sold it more than a year ago to a guy in Virginia. It is a really
serious competitor's semi-auto, and I'm not a serious firearms
competitor. Interestingly, my CZ is just as accurate.

Why do say people hate the POTUS just because they disagree with his
physical policy? Then you throw in the nonsense that it's all because he is
black.

they dont disagree with him. they blame him for events that aren't his
fault

that's racism


You need some help and not just a raise in pay.

gee. you seem to deny racism exists

Doesn't matter...it's just another of your drive-bys.

let's see...bush

trashed the economy

massively enriched the already rich

spent a TRILLION in iraq

killed 4400 US troops

tortured US citizens

threw US citizens in jail without counsel


obama borrows money to save the economy...

and everything his his fault

soulds like racism to me

That is all you. I have never said any of it.
I do notice that when you run out of intelligent things to say you
revert to the same two or three rants but I assume that is you way of
coping with being wrong.

what you do is come here and whine about how i bitch slap your right
wing friends with the facts.

the fact is your pals hate obama. the fact is they exculpate the
smirking rich frat boy bush.

why?

because of race

so go ahead. keep bitching

I believe the statistics just reflect that the "good" jobs are going
away and people are settling for lesser jobs. Those days of making
$60,000 for a menial manufacturing job are gone. Globalization killed
that. There are still good jobs out there but you need to have more
skill than just putting a bearing in the case and hitting it with a
hammer.
BP is supposed to be an engineer and I assume he has a marketable
skill. He may have to actually market it to get the money he deserves
tho.

where? where do i go? where do the other engineers go? you guys keep
pretending there are all these jobs out there

where?

Management make their bonus by squeezing as much blood out of
their employees as they can. You need to show them you are not going
to take it and that may require that you move on

about 3%

hmm...it seems you dont know WHY companies are even ON wall street.
they are there for capitalization....looking for money to invest in
their companies. if wall street drops by a trillion, their
equty...their ability to raise money...drops by a trillion

Perhaps you are the one who doesn't understand how stocks work. When a
company offers shares they get all the money they are going to get
right then. After that the stocks are just baseball cards that trade
without the company seeing another dime. They can sell more stock but,
again, it is a one time shot.

stock is fungible. companies can, and do buy and sell their own stock.
and their ability to raise MORE equity is affected when the stock
price drops

Certainly a good stock price garners a better market for selling other
instruments but it does not directly affect the corporate revenue.

However, it is used like cash to acquire assets and it is used to assign
value to the company when its assets are sold. Therein lies the value
of stock and the reason that companies are concerned about the stock
price.

Buy a company in an all stock deal and the acquired company's revenue
adds to the acquiring company's bottom line.

Maybe it is time you looked at another career. When the computer

that was growing.

zzzzzzzzzzzzz

the right has this myth: america is the land of full employment. wall
street and the rich have made it that way. only the lazy, worthless,
shiftless middle class is responsible for the problems we face. the
rich have NOTHING to do with it. wall street is blameless

I thought you were talking about how many jobs Obama was creating. Go
get one.

ROFLMAO!! even obama can't undo the damage the smirking rich frat boy
bush did to the economy

but you right wingers figure he's white. so you naver mention that.
