Well, I don’t think anyone on ZH who’s been in the gold market for any length of time could put up any argument as to how foolish it has been. In fact, as you mentioned in your post, there are several people on this board alone that have had to come out of retirement and gone back to work or had to endure dramatic lifestyle changes after suffering the “horrific” losses you mentioned. Myself included.
To me, it’s not really all that funny, but different strokes.
I know that your forte’ is trading professionally and I’ve always sort of believed you been posting here more as a means of gauging sentiment for your trades rather than as a goldbug. Not everyone who posts here is a goldbug.
Anyhoo – Current Standings:
Buddha – 2 -0 – 1
Gartman – 1 – 1 – 1
