My cotton underwear is outperforming my portfolio! Yikes!

You have to chase ambulances to pay those debts off. If I owed $250k on law school, I would go out and buy a portable police scanner for a hundred bucks, and everytime I heard an accident had happened, I would rush to the scene before the ambulance even got there. Every auto accident a...

Why is 5-7 bucks a gallon unaffordable for most americans? People pay more than that in europe NOW and its not unaffordable for them. Some people are paying about $10 bucks per gallon in europe.

Just so you know...bookstores generally get 55 cents out of every dollar for each book sold. That is a pretty high profit margin. Not to mention that generally the bookstores have the right to send the books back after so many months if the book is not selling. For comparison sake, Walmart...

I think freethinker just had a wtf moment. :)

He must have taken a page out of darwins book, huh?

Do you really think that if people see fiat money collapsing in a matter of minutes that ANYONE in their right mind will sell you gold/silver for any amount of paper? If I see the USD and CAD collapsing, I would not sell an ounce of silver for 2 million dollars because the paper is worthless...

Read your Bible or Quran, they should both pretty much say the same thing...all land belongs to God and God gives control of it to whomever he wants. Obviously he doesnt want the Palestinians to have it or he would raise them up and let them take it.

Yeah, I saw that Obama told Mubarak to turn the internet back on and mubarak basically told him to fuck off. Looks like we need to back another horse, this one needs to be put down.

I think the world must be coming to an end because for once I agree with you. Even though Mubarak is our little puppet and obeys us regarding israel, he is a little crazy towards his own people and authorties there get away with too much BS that the people should'nt have to put up with. I read...

Ouch! Get some energy efficient windows, a new aircon(not those wall units) and upgrade your appliances. I used to use an old refrigerator where just running it cost $60 per month. I only paid $100 for the fridge,but it sure cost me alot in monthly expenses. Now I use a maytag energy star...

Normal size house...3bd/2ba 1330 sq ft. It's a brand new energy efficient house, so that might have something to do with it. Not one of those 50-80 year old homes you see in southern CA.
