Maybe that's why the price of gold has skyrocketed lately. What else you going to invest in? Real estate? Actually, if you're a contrarian, real estate is probably the thing to put money into right now.

Of course I'm in real estate, I have a mortgage.
I am also buying int'l mutuals. I don't buy commodities. She's right about bonds. What they have done is barely grown at all -- a complete contrast to the stock market which is in a death spiral, IMO. Buying bonds is far better than George Costanza trying to explain, "Shrinkage"!
