So I was visiting one of my favorite blogs…GetMoneyEnergy and my eyes were immediately drawn to information on the site about GoldLine.  Once on the GoldLine site, I was able to pursue through amazing amounts of information on rare coins and precious metals investing. 
Most interesting to me was a chart that showed current Gold, Silver, Platinum, etc. [...]

For reasons many of you may know, I’ve been following the NYMEX price of Natural Gas very closely for the past year or so.  I’ve seen multi-years highs that made little sense to me…and as recent as yesterday we are seeing 7 year lows in the price of this “clean” fuel.  SO WHAT IS THE [...]

Friends, I’ve been away quite a while and miss hearing from everyone.  I’ve been launching a new company over the past month or so, and life has been CRAZY busy.  I’ve been working later than normal, and have been having trouble sticking to my 5:30 AM blogging routine. 
Anyways, I think it is important to open [...]

Several months ago I posted about some of the great companies that I was buying as the entire stock market was tanking. 
I purchased 15 companies over at Fristrade.  As of today, nine of them have lost money, five of them have made money…but my account is sitting at almost EXACTLY the $15,000 that I started with…so I’m [...]

WOW!
This word is all my little brain could register when I pulled up my retirement account at Firstrade today.
I’ve been a licensed securities broker for almost 9 years now, and I NEVER saw this coming. 
Buy and Hold index fund investing is officially a TRAIN WRECK if you started in about the last 12 years or [...]

I’ve posted several times regarding the auto industry here in Michigan.  Since then, we have seen GM and Chrysler receive some federal money to try to keep them afloat. 
Ford Motor Company appeared to shy away from federal dollars and put up a good front that they had everything under control…we don’t need any bailout money. 
Based [...]

Since I have dealt with Ford in the past, it seem appropriate to deal with GM too.
I am amazed that so many folks are just itching to invest their hard earned dollars into Ford and/or GM.  Many of you sincerely believe that there is no way that the government will allow them to fail.  Well, [...]

I clearly remember 3 years ago my Uncle Randy telling me that he was seriously stockpiling Silver. 
The commodity was selling at about $5.00 per troy ounce and he was sure it would go to $20 or higher. 
If I remember correctly, he felt that there was a worldwide shortage in silver, and that the stock market [...]

My brother signed up last week for an investment account at Zecco.com. 
Zecco offers up to 10 COMMISSION FREE trades per month. 
He found the system to be user friendly for the most part.  The trading screen was easy to use and the execution was fast and within a penny of the Free Real Time Quotes. 
Overall he [...]

I’m being asked the following question quite frequently lately,
 
“So how much Ford stock have you been buying?”
 
My gut reaction is to say, “Ford Stock, are you crazy?  That investment is toxic!” 
 
But I’m a Michigan guy, and I’m a Ford guy, (I just bought a Ford last Friday…a Focus…39 MPG, sticker price of $17,000, but a [...]
