It’s like the Boomer generation is going to take another hit. Why not? I’ve been told for the last forty years that I and others of my generation are responsible for everything that goes wrong.

On the other hand I saw this several years ago and did my best to get out of the Stocks, 401(k)s and all. As we have all heard before if you can’t touch it, protect or eat it, etc. it isn’t really yours. Sort of like the difference between gold certificates and the actual gold coins in your hands, eh?

If I were going to get into Gold, I wouldn’t even consider having a “Gold Certificate”. lol

That ain’t Gold. (they can burn in a fire too)

I would want REAL Gold, IN HAND. (or safe)

The elits have already taken their investments etc. overseas as well as obtaining visa’s and other properites. Everything is moving East so too those who can afford to boogy to another nation as those are being targeted to being built up and central to the NWO.

The East is where it’s happening and will be in the future. Tough of course we’ll still have things happening here but no longer central to how things go i the EAst.

The fact Obama wasn’t in Paris at that Historical event, and nobody in the EU leadership cared one way or another, should speak volumes to us that we are and will be loosing our impact abroad.

If one is lucky to have an employer match your investments a person would be a fool to not take advantage of 401Ks which are great. Best to leave 401k’s alone to grow as one will surely need as much as one can save for retirement. I know.

As far as getting out of stocks it depends on when you need the money. if you need the money within 8 years or so best to not be in stocks. on the other hand I can’t imagine anyone not having at least some money in high dividend stocks as a hedge against inflation over the long haul. however one would have to have the stomach to perhaps watch it cut in half at any time. tough game.
