It's getting spooky seeing people of pretty darn average intelligence betting huge amounts of money here and treating it like it's pennies on a dollar.I think the false economy heated up where even below average mentality people made money out of thin air.They don't appreciate the fact that they lucked out on some pie in the sky bogus medical industry or industrial arms&munition war stock,real estate flipping deals with government grants&loans,winning a frivalous lawsuit,collecting entitlement checks they didn't contribute towards or collecting inheritances.

Things have really gone totally funky with the dollar shrinking,foreclosures going gangbusters,CC debt spiraling out of control,government spending out of control,oil and gold going through the roof and the people in government and the puppet media thinking we are in financial eutopia.Look where all the job and wage growth is that they brag about.It's mostly in the made up medical industry taking care of hypochondriacs on entitlement programs.Then foreign companies mostly from China are coming here to grab natural resources in mining because our dollar has sunk so far.So even the good news they portray that job growth is strong is really a negative.

We need Dandy Don to sing,Turn out the lights,the party's over!

Bombastic?

Reminds me of Inigo Montoya's (Mandy Pitinkin's) line in The Princess Bride: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

Well at least we agree on the worthless us dollars part. % holdings devalued almost 5% this week.

I have very little US holdings outside of cash in sportsbooks/poker sites. As the CND$ hits 1.07 I guess it's time to load up on the US$. I"ll be rich then if it ever goes back to 72 cents.
