[QUOTE="hurleyjd, post: 1155064, member: 4674"] Any thing you own gold land or whatever has to be converted to dollars to be able to recoup the value of your investment. Ever hear the saying "he is land poor" This applies to any and everything. There was a man in our area that raised chickens during the depression and did very well. I was told by him that he could sell a hen for $2 when a cow was going for $5. The problem back then was the fact about all a cow was good for was milk. There was no electricity and refrigeration was not as readily available as it is now. Any thing you owned has to be easily converted to cash or you may be saddled with it for a while. I know that the stock market has ups and downs but I can get on line and sell what I need to sell. I do not have to hook up a trailer and haul it the sale. Pretty easy everyone should strive to create mail box money. I use Vanguard for all of my investments. I can transfer money from bank to Vanguard and from Vanguard to the bank in a very short time frame by using the computer. [/QUOTE]
