I really hate say it, but I think there will be suicides over this

Quote from nutmeg:

Oh sure, a few may bawl like a baby, others will see their Doctor for Prozac (OxyContin- woo hoo), some will start up grief support groups. [/B]

Or worse yet, some may actually have to get a real job and actually work for a living.:eek:
 
As an option seller that sticks primarily to grains and softs things are okay. I primarily sell calendar strangles and deep otm ratio spreads.

Picked up some good premium on deep out of the money gold calls today with the run up. I hope for a correction by the end of the week. If not i'm riding it out to dec gold @ 1400.

The fun waiting game of selling premium continues....
 
lol some could actually sit down plan a budget, have a financial plan, reduce their debt and live happy. Others will vote democrat this year which would be worse than suicide.

Working for a living might have been ok in the land where income is not taxed and savings are not stolen.

Our markets are down about 25% over the last year. Back in the 60's and 70's, 20% was a common "noise" swing.

But back then everybody wasn't foolishly leveraged up the ass...

hope not.
Nah!, with all these bailouts, at most we'll see fake "suicide warnings" so the Fed hastens up those checks delivery.

Even that is far away, at most we'll see fake "bankruptcy pre-fillings", again so the Fed delivers faster.
