You want a 'safe' investment? Buy a gun shop, a pawn shop or a liquor store. They're recession proof

That's true everywhere. A lot of concern that the new president and democratic congress will curb gun rights. Get 'em while the gettin's good!

As to the original question, buy stocks. Still the best long-term investment. If your not good at picking stocks, buy Berkshire Hathaway. Buffett rocks!

There's apparently a run on assault weapons because guys expect the new adminisration to put the ban back in. These weapons always become more valuable when they're banned.
People are flocking to pawn shops to sell personal stuff & get high intrest loans cause they can't get them from banks.
Liquor will always be the average guy/gal's drug of choice, along with cigaretts, especially when they're struggling. JMO

Berkshire Hathaway is trading right now for about $111k per share. Down $1200 from Friday. I agree with you about Buffett, but I don't think I'm quite able to invest in his company just yet.
