Just got back from NYC and...

I was out at Moe's last night, I noticed several people ordered Duff's special reserve. This recession is fake.
 
Quote from Port1385:

I went to one of my favorite dive restaurants with a new date...the Spaghetto Trattoria on Bleeker. No one is acting like the S&P took its second biggest dive in 137 years. It was business as usual with people seemingly spending their money away and drinking wine at dive restaurants like the Spaghetto.

If there is a recession in NYC, then I cant tell. You be the judge...

Never been. But given it's a "dive restaurant" (in your words), I guess I don't get your point. If you were at Babbo or Del Posto, it could be a valid anecdotal observation.

or come close for that matter. Not necessarily the market but in the drastic changes in lifestyle that will come as a result of the recent turmoil. Many people are still living in a delusional state that things will work themselves out and we'll go right back to the way things were pre-crisis.

Most people are doing ok

The change will come not because people lived improperly again most people are not up to their eyeballs in debt

The change will come If/when there is a dollar crash and unfortunately for most their is little you can do to as a middle class person to avoid that misery

Since by the very nature of the act is to wipe out middle class

It's like hiding under your desk to shield against a nuclear bomb
 
Unfortunately, the worst is yet to come...most people are bullish right now. Many think this whole thing needed a year to sort itself out....the worst news is out....nowheres but to da moon!

I think its called a bear trap. Don't they attack from the top DOWN?

the goal of governments all over the world is to turn the middle class into serfs. take it literally and if necessary look up a detailed meaning of what a serf is.

your attitude needs to change. there is alot u can do. you need to find a way to make yourself self- sufficient.
