Gold

It never fails to amaze me how many people are pushing gold as an investment. They say that on an inflation adjusted basis gold is a great buy, but the fact is inflation doesn’t affect everything the same. The truth is you need to look at real (over inflation) returns for an investment over a variety of time periods to determine if something is a good investment, and I just don’t see the consistant results that I would want with gold. Maybe it’s just me though….
