Probably one should judge a President's term by praising/criticising the previous President. It takes some years for the policies to work through giving the next guy a bonus or otherwise. Gawd help the poor soul who succeeds Dump and has to start over.

To friends and supporters in the more neutral Rest of the World it is a major embarrassment trying to explain Dump's antics but to others in the anti US areas it is a death sentence.

It is ironic that after the US has tried at great cost to isolate countries like North Korea and Iran and punish others like Russia it has come full circle to isolate itself. Talk about shooting itself in the foot. If Dump thinks he can bully the rest of the world including old allies he is a...

The US situation is very similar to Britain 110 years ago. No longer THE super power that she was. The others had caught up and doing commerce and manufacturing better. Being displaced as number one is a painful process. Just as Britain had difficulty in adjusting to the new situation so has the...

Let it all hang out and tell your story. Lots of people will help with good advice if needed.

Trump's economic lunacy will kick in soon. The US people will be paying for it. He is making the US a closed economy. Everything made will cost a lot more. Not only is he taking on China but the EU, Canada, Mexico etc. as well.

If you are happy you are by far richer than the richest man.

Interesting true story of Nazis in the Bahamas but I was thinking more of Reichsbank gold that mysteriously disappeared at the end of the war in Bavaria. The Bahamas hosted many pirates and perhaps there are hoards there. Could be worth a look.

Imho put your savings into blue chip dividend stocks like Apple etc but have about 10% to play with on the markets e.g. forex. This grows a nice nest egg for retirement and is less risky. So get the pleasure and income from forex etc. and a steady income from stocks. Gamblers can try cryptos but...

I think I may be right that not a single crypto coin pays a dividend. Why ? Because the owners are just pocketing the cash and are too mean. Back a few centuries ago the penalty for messing with the coinage in this country was amputation of the right hand and one testicle. OOOOCH !!!

There was an interesting documentary on TV here recently about Colombia etc. Three guys were trying to find Escobar's millions which he stashed all over the place. They visited his hideaway in the jungle etc. but the treasure hunters had obviously already visited. There were holes in the walls...

Don't get analysis paralysis.

I used to love Coke or Pepsi but with diabetes problems have had to watch the diet. The Doc reckons diet coke or pepsi is just fine. I have 1 glass a day with a splash of wine. Tastes great. Why not give it a try ? How is the trading going ?

If you haven't done the analysis work and are therefore not sure of the trade then DON'T.

That saying is the sort of BS you get from sleazy salesmen type politicians. I am not going to believe what they are about to lay on me without question. I want to know what it is and consider the implications.

Not quite. There is someone called Donald Trump who bypasses all those groups with his tweets.

I was referring more to your average Joe like me not some billionaire who can live in luxury where they choose.

I see what you mean but the traders are only a small fraction of the population. Would you like to live and perhaps starve in a chaotic shambles like Venezuela ?

The BIG plus about wealthy people is that they have a BIGGER interest in keeping the world's economics more stable and working properly. So the rest of us have jobs, food etc. Maybe the envy that many feel is worth that. A small price to pay.

George is still probably trying to work out what it is for. Great article setting out the sordid facts - yummy. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-44074862 Yup we are watching you guys. Well ok only the top ones. lol Probably they need lots of cold baths and a good flogging !! Used to...
