    Causality issue here...... Poor people are fat (in US) Poor people shop at WalMart Walmart goes where there are lots of poor/fat people because that is their target market. Walmart is not causing people to get fat. But it is likely making it easier for fat people to keep getting fatter.

    50-100% monthly returns

    I'm saying you're lying. I've never claimed to be a day trader, as I have a six-figure sales job. I swing/position trade stocks for the most part and have done very well this year, and was only down 5% in 2008. I do not believe for one second that you can consistently make 3%/day...

    credit card debt

    Stay away from the consolidation companies. They are a scam, and will under deliver, after taking a nice chunk of money from you. Grow a pair and make the calls yourself (to creditors), assuming you are late on payments, etc. If you are, they will probably wheel and deal with you, but...

    50-100% monthly returns

    Patterson takes a lot of heat, but you gotta give him credit for saying what he really thinks on this issue.

    Little Iceland kicks UK in the face

    If the US were to have a complete economic collapse, I think a more realistic fear, than the Mad Max scenario, would be to gravitate toward a totalitarian form of government.

    Little Iceland kicks UK in the face

    That's what a lot of doomsdayers don't get. They really feel that any day now, all societal structures will collapse and it will be Thunderdome instantly.

    Mayo Clinic Stops Accepting Medicare Patients... Just the beginning, folks

    Medicare patients are a net loss for hospitals and doctors. Hospitals and doctors never want to turn away patients, but if it is the only move left, in order to stay in business, you gotta do it.

    The cure is lower prices

    I would imagine that with that many buildings, this guy has a legitimate company with several full-time employees managing these properties. Just the showing these properties to potential renters would require several leasing agents. Let alone, maintenance, etc

    Thinking like the Bigfish

    As if all "big fish" think the same. And as if, you know what they think like. You gotta love ET and the newly registered, all knowing, gurus.

    What's dirt cheap right now?

    Yes, but the FED has basically said that they can borrow as much money as they need to get back in action. I'd say you can expect more shenanigans from them in the future.

    The evil of Dpctors

    You have no clue on this subject. It is incumbent on the drug company/device manufacturer to statistically prove in peer reviewed, clinical studies that products are SAFE and EFFECTIVE. It is assumed that they are neither, until proven. It is a very high threshold to overcome and the vast...

    The evil of Dpctors

    Doctors are no different than any other profession. You will always have a certain percentage that are just in it for the money, or are incompetent, or are even nefarious. You will always have varying levels of ability in any profession and when your life is on the line, you definitely want...

    What's dirt cheap right now?

    UNG, GRU, COW and JJG are all things that I've bought in the past couple of months and plan on holding for up to several years if needed.

    The evil of Dpctors

    Ok, so let me get this straight. Doctors are evil, because you got Lyme Disease? I'm sorry you have that, but just because you were diagnosed with a disease that is often misdiagnosed and not easily understood does not mean that doctors are evil. I work with doctors on a daily basis...
