Well it's another new year! Financially last year was a good year, it could've been a great year but silver ended the year less than it begun and I was heavily leaning towards silver in my investing, and options can make or break you. I had endured some real rollercoaster rides with my portofolio which ended up with a 50% gain overall. That's in contrast to silver being down several percent, gold up 11% in terms of US dollars, and the stock market going nowhere. So that's really really good progress, even though I was up in the triple digits for the majority of the year but that's just something I have to live with. :) I also visited many countries this year, did the most amount of travelling I have ever have and lived in a different country. I've still been slack with software development. Might think of something else to do before this year is over, but... who knows.
Positives
- Year ended even better than the last.
- Travelled a hell lot.
- Learned a hell lot trading and managing a portfolio. Maybe I could run a hedge fund in the future.
- Grew a hell lot personally.
Negatives
- Didn't save as much as I could, but the good thing is for everything that I purchased I could do so because I could afford to do so.
- Social life is still kind of dead in the water.
- I still need something to truly inspire me.
- Lost the girl in Australia, that sucked but someone else will love me for who I am.
- Economy is still shit house, how long will this mirage go on for?
This year could be a make or break year for many people financially. Which side are you going to be on? If you trust your government then keep with the fiat currency. If you stand for personal freedom then stick with Go(l)d and Silver. For me well I already know the game, its the end of paper. It is amazing what people don't know, and what people are not interested in even though it affects them a great and a huge deal. Unfortunately when the USD collapses, it will be overnight, these things have always happened overnight, and by then it will already be too late for many. The matter of fact is, if you are not in your 80s, you truly have never experienced bad times, and for many this year if not next will be a very, very hard time for many. It's time to take charge of your own finances and your life and stop listening to lying politicians and war mongering governments.
