Basic Investment Question

Janet Kuypers
07/18/11

if there are “Cash 4 Gold” stores
because the economy is so low
and the value of gold is so high

and then I see ads
telling people to invest in gold now

(you know,
while it’s value is really high)

well I don’t know,
I was taught to buy low and sell high
so is this like mortgage companies
and credit card companies
trying to screw stupid people
out of what little money that have?
