rpietila I haven't speculated on the price for months. You all just raised the issue and called out my name, thus more or less forcing me to clarify what I speculated months ago. For me it has been a closed issue in my mind since July. I had no plans to think about it more until the low in Spring 2016.
As for rebalancing or whatever, the higher your net worth, the less incentive you have to be aggressive with trading decisions, such as your move to sell $100,000 of silver and buy
BTC at $10. That decision is why you are wealthy now. You do remember I concurred with that decision when you made it. We spoke in August 2012 and again in January 2013. In August I told you I was very ill and hadn't been able to fully research Bitcoin because of being sick basically all of 2012. In January, I told you I couldn't invest because my risk tolerance was absolutely to preserve cash for self-perservation. Sure investing at that moment could have alleviated my cash problem, but if it had failed then I wouldn't have made it to today with my savings. And today I have things to sell to the market, so my preservation was correct and worked. Just as your decision now to preserve balance is more correct than grabbing every speculation opportunity to increase your wealth out-of-balance (which is what made you wealthy).
Believe me I am working when my health allows me to. And there
are results already that can potentially be sold to the market. I am not too optimistic that a donation model can sufficiently fund, but I am willing to test it and find out.
And the less often I need to post in the forum, then less time is wasted posting in the forum. Which is again why I have stated I want to stop posting.
but even I know that 2015.75 WAS the armageddon
No the start of the sovereign debt big bang.
And yes Russia started bombing in Syria precisely on Sept 30. This is the start of a proxy war between the great powers (USA, China, and Russia) to divert the public's focus from the sovereign debt collapse underway. Deutsche Bank declared a multi-billion loss within about a week of this turn date.
