Bitcoin: I'm Certainly Not Buying Now

I don't own any crypto currencies,  I never have owned any crypto currencies and I say that with great embarrassment. I wish I had obviously but now there are two thousand of them from a few years ago. I mean this is what bubbles feel like, look like  and sound like as you well know. 

So is it a bubble? I don't know  but it looks like it, it feels like. You look at the charts of Bitcoin and the others, I mean they could look like any other bubble, they all look the same, all bubbles throughout history have looked and felt the same. I'm certainly not buying any now.

Investing: Gold, Sugar and Russia

I'm not buying gold (SPDR Gold Trust ETF (GLD)) Sugar would be a better buy here then gold (SPDR Gold Trust ETF (GLD),), agriculture would be a better buy and Russia (Market Vector Russia ETF Trust (RSX)) would be a better buy.
