Medicated Money: August 2006
http://medicatedmoney.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 30, 2006. After driving 1,500 miles, the last thought on my mind would be drive another few hundred miles. However, like always, Mrs. Medicated was right in saying that I would definitely look forward to it after the move. Why would she say this? Yes, financially speaking, it may not be the smartest decision to go and spend money on a vacation after spending close to 5k to move across the country, but you know what, we need it! Posted by Medicated Money at 8:15 AM. Thanks to all of the ...

Mark Bittman: What’s Wrong With What We Eat. November 27, 2008. The End of Wall Street. November 16, 2008. Terrific article in Portfolio. By Michael Lewis of Liar’s Poker fame. Notable Excerpt:. My First Gold Coin. November 13, 2008. For as long as I’ve been writing this blog, and for at least two years before that, I’ve been interested in gold. Over this period I’ve maintained a roughly 10% allocation to gold in my portfolio I’ve done this through two ETFs: GDX and GLD. And the final reason: there is a ...

What good is wind energy if we can’t transmit it? August 28, 2008. Paul called my attention to this NYT article:. Wind Energy Bumps Into Power Grid’s Limits. The dirty secret of clean energy is that while generating it is getting easier, moving it to market is not. The grid today, according to experts, is a system conceived 100 years ago to let utilities prop each other up, reducing blackouts and sharing power in small regions. It resembles a network of streets, avenues and country roads. August 27, 2008.

https://willrwright.wordpress.com/2008/10/10/why-our-system-is-prone-to-panics
Why Our System is Prone to Panics. John Steele Gordon addresses the question:. How could the richest and most productive economy the world has ever known have a financial system so prone to periodic and catastrophic break down? One answer is the baleful influence of Thomas Jefferson. It’s so interesting that today’s financial crisis can be traced back to the fight between the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists between Jefferson and Hamilton. Feed You can leave a response.

My First Gold Coin. For as long as I’ve been writing this blog, and for at least two years before that, I’ve been interested in gold. Over this period I’ve maintained a roughly 10% allocation to gold in my portfolio I’ve done this through two ETFs: GDX and GLD. Eventually I found a dealer who had a single American Eagle for sale at $80 over spot. I bought the coin and also had an interesting conversation with the owner of the store. In the end, it was a fun experience. I’m hoping for a contin...You are c...

Craziness in the Gold Market | Will's Blog
https://willrwright.wordpress.com/2008/08/27/craziness-in-the-gold-market
Craziness in the Gold Market. Gold prices have fallen from $1,000 to under $800 per ounce just in the last month. As prices fell below $800, demand for physical gold rose to the point that many dealers including the US Mint! Ran out of supply. Bill Fleckenstein offers a great explanation. For the strange recent action. That’s because when a major liquidation is under way, the economic fundamentals have no bearing on market action. The quantitative systems take control. In the stock market, price action o...
