Sell Hi-Fi and invest in stock market?

If you have to sell your gear to invest in sticks then sorry mate - you missed the boat. Great bargains right now even if it goes a lot lower!

Sell gear and buy stocks? You got to be kidding. You ain't seen nothing yet. China just announced their sitution is dire and the Nightly Business News did a piece on Chinese unemployment breaking the social contract (pay me the money and I'll keep my mouth shut).

My regret is that I didn't buy some more gear before the crash. I'd rather be down 30% after a spending spree and end up with something to enjoy rather than lose 30% in a puff of smoke.

Maybe.....8 years from now....take it from a big dog....things have'nt gotten bad yet. When they can't give a NYSE seat away....buy...buy...and buy!

Sell every piece of expensive gear immediately and buy gold.

However...you'll find a very soft market for toys right now but it's going to get a hell of a lot worse.
