Was thinking about getting some stocks..

[Shhwing4]

What do you guys think about investing in stocks regarding baby boomers? I'm talking about when they retire what types of services they are going to use and buying shares in those stocks. Yahoo was saying that 10,000 baby boomers will be turning 65 years old each day for the next 20 years...

Hows your silver doing jonathan? Or did you sell?

[jonathan]

It's doing well. I doubled my inventory since the last time i've been talking about it. The historical ratio of 15-1 (15 bars of silver to 1 bar of gold) is still imbalanced. It's around 80-1 still. It WILL be back in balance, it's just being suppressed, and think tanks are advising everyone against precious medals and to put their money in paper. :lol: silver will be more rare than gold though, just because silver is the best conductor for electronics, and it's being bought up extremely fast by the china government for industrial work.

Haven't sold shit. If you have silver, it will be the most irresponsible thing to do if you sold it now. Worst time to sell, great time to buy. Buy it while it's still under $100/oz

[Red Rider]

I started investing right before I graduated high school in 2009. I started with $3,000, then I added another $1,200 later on. The balance now sits at $11,000 so I did pretty well. Much of that came off of one very volatile stock that I bought and sold at the perfect time. Things have been kind of stagnant lately though as things have mostly rebounded from where they were pre-recession.

[zach friesner]

Why?

You don't just outright buy gold or silver. You have it as a portion of your portfolio as an inflation hedge or for diversification. Yea you can buy actual silver like Jonathan and be stupid. If I had to pick I would choose gold over silver. Gold is priced in US dollars and the dollar has appreciated quite a lot against the euro lately. You are better off just getting an index fund if you know nothing of investing / valuation. Just let it set and go for the long-term. I'd like to know why you think silver is such a hot commodity

Invest in Pepsi Crystal, trust me I'm a biologist.


On a sidenote I thought this bankman was fucking me over when he convinced me putting like 100k in a fund, though I've made 11000 kroners on it so far. Would do again.
