if the suits decide to screw you, they're gonna screw you, and they're most likely going to get away with it. this means banks, funds, stocks, bonds, gov't, private, whatever.

Curious what criteria you use to decide how to protect and or build your livelihood and plan for the future? Nothing is totally safe but not sure I'd want a bunch of gold buried in the back yard of a place I haven't invested in. Not meaning to be flippant but I'm more worried about potential new and unproven investing vehicles than the old standards.
