    What is really a fair mortgage rate?

    To figure this out, you have to imagine that we are on the gold standard and there is no federal reserve to create interest rates. The only people that loan money are people that have money. No fractional reserve banking or any government interference. So...you have $100k to loan to someone...

    Debt collection and credit cards

    I dont know about that. I mean if you loaned someone money, you would want to be paid back right? The only problem i have with collections is when they find out they dont own a valid debt and instead of just throwing the debt away, they sell it to another debt collection agency which then...

    Debt collection and credit cards

    Usually nothing but phone calls everyday, but 15k might make it worth it for them to sue you and get a judgement. If its been in collections for a long time and its gone through a few different collection agencys, many will take 10 cents on the dollar or less because they are still making a...

    Trader blows whistle on gold & silver price manipulation

    People use paper money to buy & sell gold & silver. The amount of paper money people own is finite. Banks are backed by the federal reserve which prints the said paper money that people use. The amount of paper money the feds own is infinite. Advantage...banks. Only two ways out...

    Obama: Why go to an asteroid? Maybe there's gold in them rocks.

    After bringing a few hundred thousand tons of gold to earth, we would quickly find out that the price of gold drops to 3 dollars per ounce. Just like Amethyst used to be as valuable in the 1800s as diamonds, rubies, and sapphires. Now that we have alot of amethyst, an amethyst stone the...

    Just when you thought Obama couldnt possibly put us in debt anymore...

    Yeah, but I kind of think feeding 100 million people is probably just a little more important than 3 or 4 astronauts taking a vacation on a rock 10 million miles away. We only spend about 1% of our budget on the space program. Thats not enough to send us to an asteroid. We will have to give...

    gays

    Think about what you just said for a second....Now...Tell me that we should be accepting of homosexual lifestyles and making sure its out in the open for all our children to see. So you admit that homosexuals are deceitful infiltrators of the catholic church just so they can rape children...

    Debt collection and credit cards

    Yeah that happened to me once when I was 20. I bought a $3,500 TV set at a now bankrupt electronics store (The Good Guys it was called) I never made a payment and they never came after me (it was one of those 12 months no interest no payment until the next year deals) . A year or so later I...

    Has anyone noticed...

    In the last few years since I first heard Obamas name, I have yet to hear one person say that we need to put a bullet in his brain. The closest thing I have heard is a liberal saying that some radical racist might put a bullet in his brain. But I have heard plenty of liberals even on this...

    this story is really off putting of americans.

    I think what Morganist was trying to say is that a story that makes headlines like this really reflects bad on us as a country. Sure people do crazy stuff like that in every country, but it doesnt usually make the news and people only know what they see and what people see is "American sends...
