gold prices

[robert <http://dummy.us.eu.org/robert>]

I just looked at gold prices.  It's funny that they say that gold prices
are falling, but, since 2002, when I bought my fund, prices are way up.

But, I suppose it doesn't matter much since, even with all the bonds in my
portfolio, my 401K is down by 30% at this point.
