  1. Lech, a lot of shit will eventually go up in value given enough time (ie savings in bank, real estate,…). the point is why add more “wait” into the equation when you dont have to. Us SMART GOLD bugs will tell you when to short.

  2. g10, in much of europe the postal duties are privatized. I say let Walmart take over the delivering of mail.
    Mail volume is down 20% since 2007. Labor takes up 80 cents of every dollar the post office earns.

    Today the average postal worker makes $83,000 a year in wages and benefits, roughly 50% above the average compensation for private workers, according to federal wage data.

  3. M4l – ok thanks that actually makes sense
    meantime – seriously all I have is like $2500 to invest – haaa so I was just trying to make a decent return on it rather than have it sit in my savings account collecting dust

  4. AAAh…sweet validation…note NYT Home article “Hells on Wheels” about these delectable members of the fair sex who’re riding *normal cycles* on *normal errands and trips* all dressed up…”kitten heels work well with pedals”; “want to look sexy” “get a little sweaty but no matter”…

    Reminds me of the copenhaganize.com blog, which runs a section on women on wheels periodically.

    My q. is: how do I meet one of ’em?!

  5. “I mean really! don’t you just mail your bills through your job’s outbox anyhow?”

    NO, I DO NOT.

    The post office is one of the most inefficiently run organizations on the face of the earth.

  6. g10, it’s like buying car insurance. you buy it as hedge for crap to happen so you’ll be kept/made whole. you dont buy it to make money. so buy gold to hedge any drop in value with other assets like cash, stks, bonds,…

    it’s about proper mindset and expectations going into the purchase of gold.
