Why You Should Own Gold - Reason # 818.

According to ABC News, North Korea is nearing completion of an electromagnetic pulse bomb. Here's a little excerpt from the story:

The North is believed to be nearing completion of an electromagnetic pulse bomb that, if exploded 25 miles above ground would cause irreversible damage to electrical and electronic devices such as mobile phones, computers, radio and radar, experts say.

"We assume they are at a considerably substantial level of development," Park Chang-kyu of the Agency for Defense Development said at a briefing to the parliament Monday.

Such a device, if exploded above US soil could wipe out communications for days, weeks or months. What that means is this: If you want to eat, you better have cash or a monetary equivalent with which to do business because your bank and investment accounts will be frozen. Your stocks, bonds and retirement plans won't do you a bit of good because they will be unaccessible!

Now, tell me again why you haven't bought gold? Oh yeah, that's right..... it is too high priced right now to buy. And you're the same person that wouldn't buy it at $300/ounce because it was "too low" priced to buy.

Heh heh heh! You people just make me look sooo smart! Thanks a million! (And I do mean literally... "a million!")
