Worst case scenario is 30 years from the Treasuries maturing, which creates global inflation requiring investors to buy gold as a hedge. Best case scenario is that rates cause asset deflation and contagion requiring gold as safety. The latter begins July in the Us and Draghi ends qe in February. Even if I lose money by March I would still be proud of myself for seeing this the way I do and for taking a position.

Timber... I agree with you that gold is a young mans game. A set and forget investment. A nest egg. But I enjoy the company here and thats why I come back. I have a feeling you know what I am on about and stick around for the nostalgia you get after you sold.
