Wow, platinum has dropped by more than 50% in the last 8 months!

Dropping prices are not a good indicator of a worthy investment. I personally wouldn't invest in anything right now.

haha, I know...I was thinking of how dumb it would have been to have bought platinum at the beginning of the year. I was surprised to see that the average price of gold has been as high as it has been over the past 30 years....I thought it was much lower than that for some reason. Good site.

I haven't done much investing before, so now does not seem to be the time for me either.

It looks like gold will be either way down, way up, or flat next week.
