    gold, silver, and other commodities. where to even start?

    OK so I’m one of those Americans who has just been putting 6% in a 401k for years and don’t really know anything more than that.

    Investing in gold..

    another question. looking at gold prices back in 2001 was about $200+ for an oz. now $900+ for an oz. would it be wise to wait to see if it came down, or considering the shape of our economy maybe its not coming down and could be $1800 an oz in 10 years?
