    These Bonds were a definite 'short'

    I don't care who you are, if you share your bed with someone for 9 years, they are going to have at least a few really nasty hurtful stories to tell about you if they are so inclined.

    Don't think that the gov't weasels are going to do what they ought to do as fiscally responsible leaders. They are going to do whatever keeps them elected for as long as possible, our future be damned.

    Bye-bye Silver

    Silvergasm. I'm still bullish metals. Wish I would have picked up more silver on this pullback, but there's still time for plenty of upside.

    New home sales slowest in at least 50 years

    If you can remain solvent long enough, inflation will solve all those problems. And it has already started; gold, oil, commodities, all up. Sustained inflation is coming because it has to. We ain't gonna be able to pay our bills without devaluing the greenback.

    $7,000,000 is not enough to be rich!

    Please let me know where your 5% guaranteed investment is, I would like in on that. Or, you might need to deal with market fluctuations that don't fit your $100k / yr nut.

    Politics of unemployment

    Bread and circuses. Watch the NFL lockout kerfuffle. It will be resolved quickly; either covertly nudged in a smoky backroom as a "favor", or with the heavy hammer of the Justice Department threatening with antitrust lawsuits. Gotta give the masses their Fantasy Football Leagues to keep...

    Japan Spirals into Bankruptcy?

    Earthquake will be a tipping point for their economy. They might be tipped back on track with increased rebuilding of their infrastructure. Nothing stimulates an economy like war and natural disaster. Clears out the deadwood and inefficiencies. Or tip them into oblivion as they are...

    55 years old average 401k balance $211k

    Another way to look at this is that the average 401k balance was fully invested in the Dow 10 yrs ago, and that average contributor pumped in $10k / yr since to the same investment portfolio. The numbers work almost to the penny. Not as much of a story to find that the average investor...

    "Conversation with a Local" video

    I don't think I would continue a conversation with someone who looks down on a professional gambler. The only professions I have disgust for are child pron producers, child prostitution pimps, and welfare leeches. I have had very interesting conversations with pro thieves, drug smugglers...
