Default Re: *Warning: final phase of the downward spiral.

let's face facts -- less than 20% of the world
play in the stock market

the other 80% can NOT afford it -- all of them,
make less than $5 per day, maybe, even less than $5
and, most of the working folk,
don't have $5 left over, after they pay all their expenses,
just to live

so what, and, who, is it really all about ????

the stock market - is all about the very rich,
raping the rich/and, the ones
who want to get rich

it is a hole for your hard earned pension money to disappear into

i believe, that, much of what is going on

is POOR eXchange - and, it is about to get eXposed for what it truly is

think about it, how much, do you have left at the end of the year ???

how many of you, have a pension ???

how many of you, have changed jobs, 5 times, in 25 years ???

and, will NOT ever qualify for a pension -- truth is,
in the over 40 - 55 crowd, almost all of us

i was always told, to invest into land,
there is only so much of that --

and, to rent it out, or, at least have some income
in a property, not completely paid for

and, to hold 1st mortgages, at a fair rate of interest,

as, those where the best 2 best ways to make money

both of those, are secured

and, both of those, are viable ways to earn money

playing in the stock market,
in my family, we were told, NOT to do it

the only time, i did it,
i earned quite a bit,
and, then, when it came time to do my income taxes,
it was insane, what, i had to pay
and, i had to cash in stock,
in order, to pay the taxes,
and, then, i had to pay more taxes,
on the stock, i cashed in -
- it was a horrific circle that never seemed to end

it, the markets of this world - are a game for fools !!!

whose boat is sinking ???

remember, what ever it is,
that floats the boat, can also sink it !!!

and, their ship is going doing

it is too late, to bail them out,
besides, when you do, all the money, in any particular country,
ends up, in another country

in the end, many will discover, the real truths,
behind it all

it is just another ploy for the ills, to get, as much, as, they can

i say, buy/and, hold your own
silver/gold/platinum -- in coin/or in bar
and, buy real estate, and, hold 1st mortgages
people helping people -- that is what works

people supporting banks, etc.,
is NOT the best way, to have/or to hold your mortgages

invest into your friends, and,
do that, with integrity -- on both sides of the equation
i'd rather pay a friend - the interest, than, to pay the interest to a bank
