Investors are rushing to buy gold bars and coins. The US Mint sold 92,000 American Eagle coins last month, four times that sold a year ago and more than it shipped in all of 2007
This is not only a US phenomenon. Other countries' mints are reporting strong sales. John Reade of UBS reported large purchases of coins, seen as a safe haven investment.
Inflows into gold backed exchange funds surged in January pushing holdings to an all time high of 1,317 tonnes. Barclays Capital (NYSE:BCS)saw that last months flows of 105 tonnes amounted to half of the world's gold mine output for January. Mr. Reade said that investment in gold could double in 2009 compared with 2007.

Interesting post here. One thing I'd like to say is the fact that most professional fields consider the Bachelors Degree just as the entry level standard for an online degree. Even though Associate Degrees are a great way to get started, completing your Bachelors reveals many doors to various employment goodies, there are numerous online Bachelor Diploma Programs available by institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another concern is that many brick and mortar institutions present Online editions of their degree programs but typically for a extensively higher fee than the corporations that specialize in online college diploma plans.
