Financial minds, can you help out a confirmed doofus? When Taleb says "staying in cash," what exactly is he saying you should do with your money/investments? I have foreign stocks with Euro Pacific Capital; is he saying those aren't safe, either?
Any financial advice and/or definitions of these phrases is welcome.
Silver and gold, in your actual possession.
Well, that was easy enough. Thanks!
