Without being personal ... have you invested in gold or silver?

[Angela Shelley]

Poll question: Without being personal ... have you invested in gold or silver?

This is a "physical gold" question, asked as a poll, so please don´t share any personal information in your message if you feel uncomfortable with doing so.

Have you invested in gold or silver?

1. No money, no investments

As I posted in the Bear Stearns poll--nothing invested, nothing to lose. Meh. I am merely a spectator at this point.
Me watching the markets: :popcorn:

3. An investment in the popcorn market is a real treat!

7. Mmmm...crunchier...

Shoulda also invested in the "butter flavoring" market.

Elaine: "Is that real butter?"
Theater employee: "Um...it's yellow!"
- Seinfeld
:rofl:

4. Not currently but planning on buying gold (maybe silver)

Leaning toward "tangibles" (except even real estate at this point is becoming scarier).

5. Ditto......

Take money to invest - ain't got none....... Seems to be an advantage at the moment, tho.....

14. Would you appreciate my intentions

if I told you do not worry, the sun will come out tomorrow? :-)

8. I love your polls, AS

They are always scrupulously worded, and you never forget to somehow work in the impoverished ... with our gold halos!

9. I bought several pounds

of silver when it was around 5 bucks an ounce. I figured I could always have it melted and could have some jewelry made if it never did anything. I have a small amt of gold.

10. I have an investment in a gold mining company, but not gold directly.

18. I would think that should count. n/t

11. Yes but I lost every dime....

...in the three divorces.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

13. Indirectly, yes.

I inherited gold and silver that was purchased as an investment. I've kept it over the past decade because I thought it would eventually go up in value.

[Angela Shelley]

15. Good for you!

... are you now itching to sell, or waiting for the price to double?

[Lone_Star_Dem]

16. I'd be lying if I denied having felt an itch or two

But, I'm not in any desperate need at the moment. I think I'll wait a bit more to see how things continue to play out before I make any decisions.

17. Ordered a new brass tailpiece for my banjo...other than that...

..Actually, that's about all. Maybe not the best investment, but banjos are more fun.

19. Make music, not war
