Re: Should you vote?

I will not be voting because I view Obama and Romney to be practically identical.  I love Gary Johnson but he’ll only get about 1% of the vote so what's the point? I was recently watching watching this CSPAN discussion from Nov 1, 1996, and Harry Browne states he has not voted in 30 years.  http://w...

Does anyone here use a financial adviser?

A women I work with told me she was meeting with her "financial adviser" today.  That got me thinking.  Another reason why I love the PP is I don't need one.

Question - do any of you use the services of a financial adviser? And if so, what for?

Thanks.

Re: Gold Eagles/Buffalos safest coins to buy?

I only own Buffalos.  I prefer 24K pure gold.  I keep each in a plastic case so they stay scratch-free.
