A friend of mine was handling a very small portion of money 2 years ago. I trusted him because he was a vice chairman of finance for Reagan and knows gold inside/out as he made lots of money for his clients in the 80's. I was upset with him when he lost $12K on KRY options within a month. Being addicted to this stock, the past year I had reinvested ~$60K back into KRY, thinking of the possibilities (a greedy mind can be trouble!) I look at my portfolio and just have to shrug it off as a learning experience. I did only invest 25% of my portfolio into KRY, so I haven't buried myself. I still have hope, though! It is not over, yet, and all we can do is hope for a strong fight to the end! We can not let our lives be ruled by the markets. Life is not about money, but love and family...
