I think a lot of people's actions are based on what they hear in the news. They get scared, freak out, and act out of sheer stupidity. My mom is a perfect example of this. She listens to radio news like it's going out of style. She doesn't know what to do with her money. She's liquid, but she's never invested in anything in her life and wants to start now. "Should I buy an apartment in Russia, Walnut Creek, Germany? Should I buy gold or diamonds?" Ugh. I worry she'll get involved in something she doesn't know about and end up worse than she started. Unfortunately nobody holds a crystal ball and can predict the future. I think people that are making moves now should be the experienced ones, not the emotional ones ready to jump in from the sidelines. If I had cold hard cash today, I'd be a much happier vixen.
