good to know your expertise. I’m sure you bought a shit ton of gold when you started investing 12 years ago. as we all know gold has outperformed the stock market the past 15 years. just like zero hedge and many others have predicted.

Yes because there is only one strategy to make money in the markets and buying gold was it.

Indices up 515% Gold up 240% since '09 to present day...

lol it's most certainly what you insinuated.

My feelings aren't hurt one bit bro. I don't take armchair theorizing from zerohedge enthusiasts seriously. I actually don't take anyone off the interwebz seriously.

A pro can take 5k and build that but you also need some luck. If you're trading a positive expectancy but say your first 4 or 5 trades are losers you could be at your risk of ruin.
You need to know everything about your strategy's past performance. What was the longest losing streak? Most risk endured in a winning trade (maximum risk exposure, mre)? Biggest loser. Average loser.
% win. Risk/reward...you need to be aware of all of that shit.

If you don't have something to go off then you're throwing darts in the dark and you're going to have to be extremely lucky to win and to keep that profit and continue to win. It usually doesn't happen...

how low will the stock market go when most people who lost their jobs start taking funds from their 401k or other investments to live? this thing is going down hill fast. hope you're all prepared. And if you think jobs will come back like they were you're in for a rude awakening. most of the lost jobs are not coming back.

He's predicted 20 recessions and got one right...very brilliant man but not the best track record.
