Horneytorney Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 depends which market you are looking at, which country you live in and which tax and other laws apply to you. Personally I wouldn't buy gold at all, and IMO it's a great time to buy other stocks but my situation/goals/country/laws/tax implications are more likely different to yours. I live in Thailand as non-american i do not invest in any us stocks as i do not want to create any tax liability in usa. so remain european or asian stock or gold or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexi Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Compare how Thai stocks have done against the FTSE over the past few years - amazing probably too late to get in now though.Gold is always a good bet and should do well if we get lots more QE .However,try going into 7/11 with a gold bar...." I`ll have this bottle of water and 4,999,985 Baht change please "....." sorry,no hab change-you hab small moneee ? " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Nothing like walking around Patts with a backpack full of 50 and 100-baht notes to get people's attention. That sort of stupidity would get me knifed in Sydney, so I can hardly point the finger at anyone in LOS. Far better to blend in with the old blokes who seem to survive from one pension payment to the next - happy hour, anyone ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pom Michael Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 34.55 Ok, we past 30 Dec, but boy I was way off. Today down to about 29.80 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 It definitely sucks - first time in decades the US$ has been under 30. Thailand's economy is farked right now. Only explanation I can think of is the US economy is in even worse shape. Not to worry, Obama will wave his magic wand and fix everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzzz Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 The magic wand is to print more money -- this goes for USA and Europe. But the Dollar and Euro will be devalued relative to areas where they are not in the printing money mode. I read recently that Japan is also starting to ease monetarily. There will be lots more money in circulation so the economy has to get better, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainsdrifter Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 by printing dollars, Obama is spreading the pain away from the US. another way to see it is pay a dollar's worth of debt with .90 cents of devalued dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
