Here is a simple, practical question that each person can and should ask themselves: how much of your savings would you feel comfortable taking to Las Vegas this weekend and plopping down at the craps table?

Now you know how much money you are comfortable holding in QE-juiced global stock markets today. It’s that simple. All the other banter is sales puff nonsense. If your two numbers don’t currently match, you have some soul-searching to do. Hopefully for your own sake, sooner than later.
