I have been watching the stock market go down for the last couple of weeks. And it looks like they are starting to run out of government money. Looks like the fake recovery is over and the sukers rally is over. Plus think they been taking money out of gold and putting it to stocks; but it will not matter because I figur it will be 5000 by December 2010.
P.S. You better burn your degree; idiot!

Alright, well, I'm going to hold you to your prediction:

http://conspiracyscience.com/articles/predictions/view/28/gold-will-reach-5000-per-ounce/

[ Apparently this guy doesn't realize:

1) Markets go up and down.
2) Gold is a commodity and people are creating a bubble with it by driving up the price. If it does reach $5,000 an ounce, which I guarantee won't happen, people would stand to lose a shit load of money when the bubble pops.
3) This guy honestly believes that because the market goes down, gold will skyrocket? If that's the case, when the market basically crashed in 2007/2008, why wasn't gold $5,000 an ounce then? Or how about in 2000 after the dot-com bubble? Or how about in 1988/89? Or how about any time in the history of the US? ]

[ See his prediction. ]

O.K. and you can also hold me to that the Dow will also fall to 0 on that same date. Dumb Ass.

Alright Nostradamus:

You know, I don't need to call you a dumb ass to make myself feel better, just watching people ridicule your stupidity online and the fact that it's associated with your real name makes me feel all warm and fuzzy!

[ Alright, we'll hold that to him as well. ]
