Wow, I'd like this guy to be my financial adviser.  I bet he moved his money out and into the right spots and is now the big man on campus.

trouble is.... to have seen this when it happened one would have had to watch Fox News.   That would cause ones brain to liquefy and run out of ones nose and then one would have been incapable of following Schiff's advice.

Some of my broker friends were bankrupted more than once. After that work experience, hard to trust some of the market experts.
