And now on to the main pitch...

Submitted By Gary Tanashian

Make no mistake it is good to be back. I generally enjoy doing this blog because as I have mentioned before, it is part of the work I am doing anyway to get the markets right or at least way more right than wrong. This is indeed an important juncture for markets, commodities and the very entity we call 'the economy' and all the social implications tied to it. There are times when I get stressed by having too much on my plate and time becomes an issue. At those times the blog is not so fun. But generally it is what it is and it is my pleasure to present it for anyone interested.

But posts like this morning's market wrap up take a lot of time and I consider it work which again, I need to be doing anyway. My pitch is that if you have found value in the form of capital appreciation or perhaps capital preservation... if you find value in the current setups I have laid out or if I have just been a good 'double check' in your information gathering rounds, please consider using the donate button over there on the right side panel. ---->

Do I need the money? No and yes. No because I do not rely on the blog, website or even trading as my primary means of income. Yes because what you may not know is that I routinely recycle commissions (with the exception of BullionVault which I recycle into Zürich bullion) into music gear. Specifically amps and stomp boxes (effects pedals) thus far. Yes, an occasional jam with a couple guys has become original songs destined for recording - one day. It is a long process for us unlike with Tan Odyssey, a band that seemed born ready and is a case of not if, but when. Anyway, we rock and have fun and the songs are really good. But I have a rule (or is it my wife's?); Gear only comes from website/blog funds.

Here is a picture of what I hope will be my new baby. Won't you please help me get my new baby? ;-)
