Gold is a question of faith

All said and done, investing in gold is a question of faith. You either have it or you dont have it.

Investing in gold is believing that there is a perfect value system, a system that is above all kings, knights or barons. A system of justice, where no body will be able to con or short-change anybody at the paying to their due credit.

Investing in gold is, believing in the circle of life. The fact that day turn into night, and night turns into day. The happiness is followed by sorrows and sorrows by happiness.

Investing in gold is believing in the honest efforts of innumerable population will not be conned for few pieces of paper, that looses or gains its value on the whims and fancies of few people. Investing in gold believes that life is fair. That every effort that has been put in will be rewarded equally and in equal measure.

Investing in gold is believing in "what you sow is what you reap". You can’t reap luxuries of lifetime by doing nothing, while someone toils hard for few bits of luxuries, that he is soon deprived of.

You will not be a gold bug unless you believe. You wont be one, unless you are paranoid of the system which can take down happiness of you and your loved ones and cause them immense harm. As all beliefs, it is 'God' for some and 'pagan' for some. And just like religious beliefs it is a worthy safety net, for all.

Net Neutrality - Fight for free expression

The "Net neutrality" issue, where we fear networks/infrastructure providers will decide (euphemism for censorship) what customers will read/watch/listen/buy on net. Many of the features that we fear in the "Net-neutrality" have already been implemented across various other platforms like telecom. For example, my telecom service provider has blocked the competitors GPRS sites and also does not allow access to many other sites on Internet, from where the free goodies like mobile applications, software, games, wallpapers, tones etc can be downloaded. This leaves me with the only service provider for above products, the service provider himself. This is totally blocking my freedom and my right to choose. This is just a glimpse; with "Net-neutrality" issues at stake are enormous. There should be no way; any entity (maybe, other than individual governments.) should be able to determine what is accessible and what is not. :) Falkor

Definition of Cult Stocks

From a blog: A classification describing stocks that have a sizable investor following, despite the fact that the underlying company has somewhat insignificant fundamentals. Typically, investors are initially attracted to the company's potential and accumulate positions in speculation that its potential will be fulfilled, providing the investors with a substantial payout. While most of these cult stocks promise they will be the next big story after they make a new discovery or get the newest contract from the government, most do not provide investors with anything other than the story. Furthermore, these stocks typically generate very little, if any, revenue at all. For example, many micro-cap biotech stocks are cult stocks. While they promise that they are going to be working on a miracle compound or drug, most of them do not have any source of income as they slowly burn away their initial capital in research and development. However, some cult stocks do occasionally make good on...
