    Why recycling is better than the stock market.

    If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today! If you purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG, you would have $33.00. If you purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers, you would have $0.00 today. But, if you purchased $1,000 worth of beer, drank all the beer, turned in the aluminum cans for recycling, you would have $214.00. Therefore the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle.

    hmmm good point but if you paid for 1,000 worth of gold one year ago when it was at $1,200 an sold it now (todays price) at $1,735 you would be $535.00 profit that comes out to a interest rate around 50%.

    Car rate is around 4.38% (4.38 *4.38 = $0.0438* X $1,200 = $52.56)

    So anyone who can invest into gold will make more money during the avg year than any other means of investment.

    If you buy gold today an sell it 5years from now you ROI will be very large. If you look over the past 10year chart (can be found on kitco.com very easy) you will see that gold only goes up for the most part. Anyone who can get into gold investments will be very smart.

    <<is a gold investor an will invest other people money into gold for both long and short term. But long story short gold is a sure bet. When the gold market in the us drops you can then sell the gold to other countries. To lose money IN gold is very rare an very hard to do unless you are doing it as you would penny stocks.

    I wont go into explain penny stocks here but for a fast investment where you can profit huge fast an easy...penny stocks is a good market but takes alot of work an your on the edge of your chair all the way.

    My exp comes from working with stocks (penny stocks) as well as the gold an other metals alike. I sit with high priced metals at the time being.
