Who cares? Perhaps if you were as smart as you think you are you would profit from all this and actually look forward to it. The last 10 years have probably been one of the best periods in American history to get rich and yet all you've done since I can remember is cry and whine about...

I'm more surprised by the fact this is the first time this has happened than by the fact it did happen.

Whats wrong with being Greece? Work til your 53, get paid for 14 months a year and when the well runs dry send the bill to Germany. Sounds pretty cozy to me. lol!

Didn't Virgina just try this only to see the tax revenue from rich people plummet?

An experienced trader would never get into the situation you describe. I know every guy I trade with knew immediately the prices on Thursday were wrong and that getting into a broken trade was a distinct possibility. As such everyone either traded very small or not at all. Also, having...

Thats easy to answer. There's so much money in selling "the dream" it's not even funny. I'm almost ashamed to say thats how I made my money, selling a "better job and more money". Who wouldn't want that? Go to a real College.

Actually your own post proves otherwise.

you seem bitter stockboy777. very bitter. I don't know who the loser's are in the trades you mention but we all win and lose as we go. The survivors just win bigger than they lose.. Funny though, on DNDN last week 2 guys I trade with made money being long, several others, including...

I'm curious as what you believe these are exactly. For example, have you amassed the skills of selling? Marketing? cash flow management? writing proposals? writing contracts? negotiating with vendors? What are these skills you speak of?

People will freak out at first. Some may even resort to violence, but most will just tap into that wonderful attritube that has allowed the human species to survive....adapting to change. Over throwing the gov't, which could happen I suppose, wouldn't change anything. People in Greece would...

I'm sure there's worse but I remember seeing Joe "I'm soo fucking stupid it's incredible that I can remember to breathe" Theisman on fast money claiming he owned PALM at 14. LOL! Of course he probably bought some options from Lenny Dykstra so he was hedged and still made money. Idiot.

First of all nobody can KNOW whether or not any deal will fail. Beyond that it not like the contents of these deals were only known by GS. Anyone buying them could of and should of done their homework to make sure the deal made sense. Apparently some did and refused to buy the junk. The ones...

Too bad none of these GS guys has the balls to stand up and call this BS for what it is. Afterall there are no bigger piles of shit than the men and women who make up the US Senate unless of course you include Congress. For a bunch of jerks who lie, spin and twist any shred of truth in their...

You are such a babe in the woods I almost feel sorry for you. My HS daughter has a better understanding of how the world works than you do. Gov't never gets smaller. Washington will keep bailing out the states and taxpayers on a national level will foot the bills. A few may get laid off but...

I'm a part owner. The project is for a local housing authority. This monet represents about 15% of the biz we have lined up for the year. There are more projects going out for bid than I've ever seen. I'm shocked at all the work thats out there. It will be our best year ever by 2-3x.

There are endless projects in my industry that will have to be done one way or another over the next fews years because they've been put off so long. As is normally the case you are clueless.

These are not new buildings you ignorant prick. Apparently you have no idea what a commercial building costs or whats involved if you think you can construct a 15 story hi rise for 3 million in 4 months. But you're right, 3 million for me is 3 million less for someone else. Too fucking bad...

i don't think you understand how it works or what "spent" means. Our company is contracted to do about 3 million in work this year that is being paid for by stimulus money. First the projects had to be identified and approved. Then the buildings needed to be imspected to determine the scope...

No state is going belly up. For starters there is no mechanism for a state to declare bankruptcy. For another the federal gov't will loan them whatever they need, they've already loaned Nevada 1 billion, and then forgive the debt. So, that means you folks will all be stuck with the tab...

I see you're fond of making wide sweeping generalizations. Oh the drama. Let's just say for every young person who is a straight shooter there is a gang banger wannabe. Likewise for every boomer who screwed up there is a 30 year old who bought a house they couldn't afford. As for my...
