You know better than that. This is a game where money isn't made or lost until a person sells. Moreover, you've known me long enough to know that I didn't do my buying at $1,581. That was simply gold's price when I decided to note how long it would take to get to $2,000.

You ARE right, though, that it wasn't good timing. It was terrible, in fact. For starters, I am still underwater on the prediction. And, of course, 26% in more than six years isn't impressive. (Nor is it necessarily bad, depending on how much more than six years it ends up being.)

But the game isn't over, not by a long shot. I wouldn't rush to judgement just yet.

Gold is $1,581/oz today. When it hits $2,000, it will be up 26.5%. Let's see how long that takes. - De 3/11/2013 - ANSWER: 7 Years, 5 Months

Hmmmmm. . . .
gold was $1581 six years ago . . . and $1502 now . . .
Add a little inflation and I think somebody lost
money.

And, even if it did go to $2,000 . . . 26% over six years does
not sound like that big an increase.
