But greed alone would not be enough if there wasn't those of us who got in or are currently getting in because they don't think the current financial system operates in a responsible way...you can't just endlessly print money or perform accounting tricks to pretend you are a solvent nation...so many of us take a stab at this with the hope that if things do go south...this maintains some value...meanwhile...sure a little greed is a good motivator...obsessive greed will hurt you...nice article...welcome aboard regardless of the reason.
