In the Gold Bunker

Posted by Dan from Madison on October 26th, 2008 (All posts by Dan from Madison)

One of the ways I cope with tough situations is to joke.  My whole family is that way.  Even in the most stressful situations we use dark humor to help us get by.  This may be an American thing, or a Midwest thing – I don’t know.  I do know that this video is pretty funny, even though I just opened up my account statement and my total net worth on paper is down about a third for the year.  Oh well, at least I have time on my side – I feel for those who need their money sooner.

    I’m sorry for laughing but I remember the Carter years. I lucked out because I was poor and remebered what an old Swiss banker once said, “Never put more than 10% of your savings into gold.”
