Q: Mr. Schiff
Just a note on Mr Schiff, I had an account with Euro Pacific at the time of the tech bubble way back when, my stocks were going down hill by the hour, I called Euro and told them to sell the lot. I got a phone call from Peter asking me not to close the account assuring me this was a temporary thing I declined his advise and was very fortunate not to have followed it as most of the stocks tanked severely and some disappeared totally. Also another good reason for a diversified portfolio. I lost a lot but not everything. By the way 5i's advise has made and saved me money many times. Thx Gerry

Q: A question about bought deals: WEF just sold shares at $1.98 after a very large run- up in the previous three or four months. I had no forestry stocks, but I wonder whether the broker dealer network may have pumped the stock knowing they will get a piece of the action, in which case I'm probably paying too much and should have waited until the dust settles afterward.

I say this because I've bought into some REIT under-writings last spring, near the top.

Thank you

Q: Canexus CUS Not a question, just a show of frustration. I bought a small position in this company yesterday. Not blaming anyone but myself, however, I would have preferred wasting the money on Whiskey and Women.

Q: Hi Peter and gang, I would like your opinion of Peter Schiff of Euro Pacific Capital. Especially his views of a financial future for the United States that falls somewhere between bad and terrible. I know that it is hard to contemplate an apocalypse but like they say, "Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not after you."

Q: Hello Peter, keeping in mind the long term and maintaining a balanced 20 stock portfolio closely mirroring the 5i Model portfolio is it advisable to add some US exposure of 10 to 15 % to the portfolio presently?
In the question answer section of 5i the following ETF’s SPY, IWO, and VIG seen to be the choice. For the long term would you suggest 3 equal parts of the above ETF’s or go mostly for the growth potential of small caps and recommended only IWO? Thank you for providing such great insight, Ronald
