Tell me about it, I am currently shopping for a house in Florida. Fortunately I will be selling my house in Nevada and it is booming more than Florida. Zillow says that my house appreciated $50,355 in the last 30 days. The housing market is stupid. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Its paper value I could easily lose 5k Monday In fact would not be surprised since at record high levels, many will probably sell taking a profit and dropping prices. Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

I am think I'm going to go heavy in gold. Maybe I can buy my way into ADZ's bunker with it. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

You never know with gold. Just when you think the price should be going up due to the declining value of the dollar, plus increased scarcity and mining costs, it falls 10%. Central banks manipulate the price of gold. In most cases, people are exempt from paying the capital gains tax on the sale of their primary residence. When they sell stocks, they have to pay up to 20% in capital gains. If Biden gets his way, that tax will go to 40%. Congress will eventually agree to a rate higher than 20%. Earnings reports this week should be good for stocks. |

Gold is part of my portfolio I'll probably never sell it Its in Chinese jewelry that is 22 to 24k pure Chinese love that deep pure gold color I love it also. Get comments as some recognize 24k Love wearing my 24k gold chain with a 24k dragon pendant Have other gold jewelry too gaudy to wear Also have a few 1 ounce gold bullion coins Also have a couple of 1 ounce bullion platinum coins Inherited it all from my Mom I really doubt I will ever spend it Plan on handing it down to my 2 nephews Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

You met my sons. Do you want to adopt them? I thought 24k was ‘too soft’ for most jewelry? I own one gold ETF but maybe .1% of net worth. |
