Last night on Larry King, Jesse Ventura was asked about Linda McMahhan which he commented somewhat neutral. I thought what an opportunity to mention America’s last hope. Someone needs present to Ventura that Schiff is what America needs. We need to garner support from these people who seem to side with common sense. If Peter doesn’t win it is not because of him but because we did not exert the effort required to make Peter and his common sense policies known to “everyone”.

@trinomialtree See …
@trinomialtree See that’s what you still do not understand. Peter has never said he can predict what is going to happen tomorrow. He reads trends and he applies Austrian economic theory to present day events. Gold over the LONG term will trend upward. Short term it will fluctuate.

Peter doesn’t try to play the stock market and buy-buy-buy and then sell-sell-sell. He invests in long term assets that are safer and more reliable then risky short term gain. That is a large part of his philosophy.

no wonder …
no wonder macdonalds is calling you. any 8 year old knows that gold is an inflation hedge – you actually need peter schiff to tell you that? peter schiff’s advice on gold is like telling you women have babies after they get pregnant. no kidding.

even on gold, he can’t predict short term movements correctly which illustrates how unscientific and inaccurate his advice is.

sorry but your idol has no clue and neither do you.

@trinomialtree …
@trinomialtree stone age investment?
What planet are you living on?
Most people do not plan their lives around the financial markets,
they don’t mind not getting rich quick. Their appetite for risk is lower
thus it is acceptable for them to put their money in long term assets.
A lot of people DO need help finding investments that are low risk with
so much noise and propaganda coming from the media.

peter schiff has a horrible investment model.
one sided, linear, buy and hold strategy. thats what 60 year old grannies do when they go into retirement. and in the case of the new economy, many of them have to get out of retirement because they lose all their money.
except that the 60 year old granny dosen’t charge you a commission for the trade.

you do not need an investment professional to tell you how to buy gold (or other ‘long term assets’ ok. and you certainly don’t need to go through one and give him commissions for nothing, unless he has access to those assets that you don’t have.
all investments carry risk. its returns vs risk that counts. investments by professionals are done on a per millisecond basis now – if you don’t then you are still applying stone age investment concepts and therefore on the wrong side of the trade.
