    I got $90K from credit cards, where would you invest?

    I just got off the floor from splitting my sides on this thread.... I think it was redneckbank.com that put me over the edge. Now I know how Bernie was able to do it! P.T. Barnum correct? Milton Friedman wrong.... there really is a free lunch?

    Could unemployment really be 18%?

    You have to admit that some of those families that 'can't make end meet' is a little self-imposed due to debt and reaching beyond means.

    Arsonists Torch Berlin Porsches, BMWs on Economic Woe

    Joe was a plumber and he makes +250K. Reality is that many of those types of people are the people that will be paying higher Obama taxes. Like Yogi Berra said, "You'll never get rich - you make too much money!" Peace

    Any cut on charitable contributions only hurt one class.... THE CLASSES THAT HAVE TO USE THE CHARITABLE SERVICES... (the poor) We're on our way, the United Socialist America.

    Mortgage Interest Deduction Phaseout?!

    Also this would possibly hurt local property taxes and in turn put a greater burden on renters. Got to get them taxes somehow.

    Good to see the site keeps up with its name.... "Elite" indeed. See y'all next month, still little of value here since last look. Good to see some things stay the same.

    It's all unfortunate to tell you the truth. The real class act would have been to been discreet by leaving and "upper decker". Those Wall Street types, so uncreative really. Good Luck!

    Bernanke pump and dump

    We are almost to the point of saying..... Who needs Bin Laden as long as we have Bernanke? He's doing a good job of undermining this market all on his own. We will defeat ourselves from within. Good Luck!

    Bernanke pump and dump

    So why aren't the markets in rally mode? You're going to get your .50, or are you? That's what many here are really saying. In this current situation there are very few going to take a position about the next 6 months. Now, couple that with a Fed that's shtting the bed at every turn...

    Bernanke pump and dump

    Ben's the same guy that said he wanted to bring "transparency" to the Fed. He was going to install inflation targeting. Slow and steady with announced rate increases on the way up and all kinds of CRAZY ASS SHIT on the way down. That's transparency for ya. Good Luck! (We're all gonna...

    Bernanke pump and dump

    So this is how Big Ben does an inter-meeting rate cut without really doing one? Now we are still waiting for the meeting. This Fed is looking more like keystone cops with each passing week. I've just about lost all faith in this guy. Ben's looking a bit scared if not in panic mode. Good...
