    San Diego cash strapped...sell their police horses at auction

    The more I see of the problems in the US and my country England the more a bloodless military coup looks attractive. Let the Army takeover for 5 years, let them sort the mess out for the long term without having to kotow to any vested interests and then have traditional elections after their...

    Pattaya - The Ultimate Trading Location

    Great place for a holiday if you're single. Good hotels, food, shopping, pussy etc. Having said that - it's a shithole of a town (but that adds to its charm) with some of the lowest life you could ever imagine seeing, and I'm talking about the western men. Think nasty ink nasty football...

    Home Depot laying off 1000 people!!!!

    Which is why the 'drugs war' is a sham. There's no war, it's just an illusion as illegal drugs are great for legitimate businesses, ie private jails, law enforcement jobs (private and govt), weapon sales, the list is endless.

    German Chamber of Commerce warns China : Plagiarism must end

    This is what nobody mentions when they talk about China in such breathless terms. Ultimately it's still a semi-gangster state which means it can't be taken too seriously. Deception, trickery, thieving and outright fraud are standard business practices. Maybe take a generation for the...

    Where's the Dr Goebbels of China, Asiaprop to tell us that everything is fine and we don't understand anything because we don't live there :)

    Goldman Bundled Bad Debt, Bet Against It and Won

    I've said it before - If bankers or investment bankers knock on your door trying to sell you something - slam it in their faces unless you're in need of some tax-losses. Always exceptions to the rules, but not many.

    Dubai Opens Tallest Tower Partially Leased in Slump

    Arabs love assets, especially trophy ones. Trouble is they never seem to put a lot of thought into how those assets might work for them, ie make them cash. Nevertheless, that building is very very impressive.

    Senior Bank of England official : bank departures from country "not a bad thing"

    What everyone seems to forget is that most bankers even if they could wouldn't want to move to say Swiss. They're British, have grown up in this country, have friends and family here, their children are bedded down in school etc etc. It's a big move to totally relocate to a different...

    Another $155B for jobs, this is just outstanding work being done.

    Many of the scum don't. However, the trick is not to be a single man. Live with your wife or common law wife, have lots of children fake some stress condition and you'll probably get about £500 a week tax-free plus your home all paid for.

    Hugh Hendry: No emerging market exposure, Dollar could rise from here

    Hendry could be one of those 'cult managers' where even if his fund loses money (but not too much) his investors still love him. It's possible, I've seen it before. Having said all of that I like him and how he approaches the markets A LOT,
