What do I do? A Question from Reader on Her Investments...
"We are tempted to put about 28% of our savings into gold or some other precious metal because we are afraid that the dollar will become almost worthless. Of course, that would limit our liquidity somewhat.
What's your opinion? (I realize that I don't know you, but you seem to be level-headed and smart.
If you don't feel comfortable expressing your opinion, please do not feel obligated to do so… Continue

Another day, another dollar....
For me, it's a process.
Step 1: Educate myself. There are thousands of articles and opinions out there. I'm talking to people that I trust. Through this, I'm trying to weed out the bad advice, sheer panic, and idiocy. And then make an informed decision on a plan of action. By the way, continuing education is a must as circumstance change constantly.
Step 2: Re-evaluate priorities. Clutter can be defined as anything in… Continue

"How are you today?" "I'm fine thanks."
But honestly, I should say, "Frustration, angry, hopelessness, shock."
I believe that I go through a range of these emotions everyday! Maybe I need a script (prescription medication) to get me through it all!
But the prevailing emotions still remain and it has finally called me into action.
Here are some of the observations that cause me to have this range of emotions:

EMAIL A LETTER TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVES BY USING OUR EASY RED "CONTACT CONGRESS" BUTTON - - With little effort, we have the ability here for you to send a letter to our Representatives in Washington and Governor, too.
Go to THE PLEDGE (at the very top of this page on the blue header) On the top of the pledge page there are three rectangular buttons- two blue ones and ONE RED BUTTON, that reads "CONTACT CONGRESS" . Fill in the short, standard form. Done!
YOU CAN ALSO HELP BY BRINGING 5 FOLKS TO JOIN the site today, so that we can build a voice big enough that Congress will finally have to listen to us, instead of the lobbyists and special interests, who are trying to derail this historic effort.
YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE PLEDGE on the Main page. Print out 10 or more of them, get them signed and fax them back to Boone ASAP. This is how we build our numbers fast! Be a leader, be a part of the "100 CLUB", by faxing in 100 signed pledges. Let me know when you are done and I will see that you are added to the list.
THERE IS NO TIME TO DELAY
…to wait and see…or to see if someone else will step up to the plate. It is time for US to roll up our sleeves and go to work. Right now momentum is working in our favor, but if gas prices retreat, the public will forget the pain, and our moment may be lost.
PICKENS U has been formed for college alumni and university students to get involved. If you are or know of a student who would like to become an ambassador to help coordinate the pledge drive, please submit names to Pickens U site (found on the Main page). This would look good on a job resume.
PERSONAL ACTION OPTIONS We need to do more than “preach to the choir”. Sharing ideas with each other is encouraging but that will not
1) increase our membership nor
2) influence public policy.
If you know someone in the press or someone who blogs - get them to cover this. Ask those in the public eye to support this plan.
A GROUP FOR EVERYONE.
Join the Guides and Materials for New Members Group. Lot's of good information there.
Check out the many groups for Solar, CNG, your area, etc. Connect, learn and share. We grow stronger with your input. If you don't see a group that speaks to your interest, then start a group of your own.
IDEAS & PROPOSALS FOR PICKENS
I know that many of you have great ideas and proposals that you would like to get in front of Boone's team...
They asked us to have you submit all ideas/proposals in writing to the Pickens Plan at: PO Box 12123 Dallas TX 75225.
PLEASE FRIEND ME so we can keep in touch.
Thanks again for joining this historical effort. WE CAN DO THIS .
