    CL Redux

    Many thanks for the link. Excellent interview. I bought his 1st book the same year in which it was published. I have to admit, I found it quite hard going then. I haven't read it since, but will see if I can dig it up and reread it.

    why Wall Street traders win and you don't

    The question should really be why, despite all these various advantages, investment banks have been going bust throughout their history. Without bailouts, the rate of failure would be even higher.

    Harvard educated...not really the sharpest tools in the shed.

    They didn't say if there were some students who bought the coin, they basically gave the impression no-one bought one. Anyway, even if there were some students who know about silver, they may suspect a con trick.

    Heart of Darkness

    Germany has relatively low levels of home ownership, isn't doing too badly. They're certainly not relying on house prices to increase or for house sales to pick up for their economy to grow.

    We can print off some charts or perhaps your brokerage statements and burn them with you if that makes it less "immoral" :D

    Ron Paul: "The U.S. Government Must Admit It Is Bankrupt"

    I wouldn't hold your breath. Anyway, such donations have hardly come with no strings attached, there has always been a quid pro quo of some sort.

    Egypt: Mubarak Worth More Than $70 Billion

    That GDP number sounds a lot for Egypt seeing that I know the UK is a bit over a trillion pounds. So i stuck it into google and it says about $188 billion (http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.CD?cid=GPD_29) . Therefore the American gift of $1.5 billion is almost 1% of Egypt's GDP.

    Egypt: Mubarak Worth More Than $70 Billion

    "A protest outside Gamal's ostentatious home at 28 Wilton Place in Belgravia, central London, highlighted the family's appetite for western trophy assets." You can have a look at this on streetview on google maps. End of terrace house, quite a few floors. £5-10 million maybe?
