Admin nuggethunting Posted March 2, 2007 Admin Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 Hello All, When you're young you and risk your money and ride out the ups and downs of the stock market. However, if I was close to retirement I would have everything in guaranteed bonds to make sure I didn't loose my nest egg during the last years of retirement. I've heard some people gambling with the stock market all the way until they retire and have lost everything (hundreds of thousands of dollars). Go figure ....Take care,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wonderer Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 Iggy, Don't have all your eggs in one basket, Have a defersified assets stock market, land & say gold. If one goes down you don't lose it all. My brother lost their nest egg having it all in one investment, wouldn't listen to anybodys advise...........greed ............. The best investment is haveing a good well stocked pantry of food which you can eat or trade with, in case of hard times or emergencys ( can't eat gold, paper money, stocks or bonds...ect. ) just my two cents......................wonderer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
