Just read blog “Should You be looking for Gold or Silver Alternatives?“.  I agree gold and silver are still the right places to park your money if you can.   In particular Gold, and for me personally I can’t think of where else I would put my investment money.  I’m pretty sure I would not be dumping into the market right now.  Gold is a safe haven for assets and it always will be.  If you don’t have money to invest try to win yourself a 1 oz Gold American Eagle at APMEX.com for free.  You can enter with coupon at APMEX Coupons.
