| Myth Busted: Don’t Be Conned Into Buying “Numismatic” Or “Collectible” Gold Coins Posted: 03 Dec 2010 05:39 PM PST If you’ve spent enough time in the gold community, you might be under the impression that the most imminent threat to the average American isn’t terrorism or unemployment, but rather gold confiscation. Starting with the fact that FDR confiscated gold during the last Great Depression, and continuing to the quite accurate forecast that we are headed into an even Greater Depression, unscrupulous coin dealers have been pushing investors to buy expensive “numismatic” or “collectible” … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

| Posted: 03 Dec 2010 01:35 PM PST The Institute for Supply Management's Non-Manufacturing — or Service — survey rose in November to 55.0 from 54.3 in October. Like its venerable brother, the Manufacturing survey, this is a "magic 50" index, where any reading above 50 indicates that the economy is expanding and anything below 50 represents an economic contraction. Thus, this means that the Service side of the economy, which is far larger than the manufacturing side, is not only growing, but the rate of growth accelerated … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

This is a follow-up to that post, and the chart above (click to enlarge) displays the results of the 2010 Math SAT test by gender for all scores … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

| Employment Report In-Depth (pt. 2) Posted: 03 Dec 2010 12:35 PM PST (Note: This article is a continuation from “Employment Report In-Depth [pt. 1].”) Long-Term Unemployment Long-term unemployment is a very different experience than short-term unemployment.

You get unemployment insurance benefits (usually, but not always) but in general, they cover just 60% of what you were earning … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

| Gold – A Rally To $1600 Is A Likely Scenario For The Coming Months Posted: 03 Dec 2010 11:54 AM PST There is a good reason why the U.S. government prints the phrase "In God We Trust" on the currency. You have to have faith that the pieces of papers you carry in your wallet have value and that you can exchange goods and services for those bits of paper. Fiat money is not "backed up" by anything; intrinsically it is useless paper (nowadays not even that, but mere electronic bookkeeping entries). It is valuable only as far as people believe in its anticipated purchasing … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates
