I know some of you enjoy coin collecting and thought this might be apropos.  The American Eagle silver dollar is going back on sale from the US Mint next month after a 1 year hiatus due to a silver shortage.  I've seen recent predictions silver will hit $240-250.  Might be a good investment, not to mention the enjoyment of having one.   Believe the sale price is around $45.00.    http://catalog.usmint.gov/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=10001&categoryId=10120&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=10191&top_category=10191
