Poor, poor schmuck.
Now they have an excuse, other than I don’t wanna.
Traders make an in-depth study of a company. They read all the reports, check their books, check for outstanding litigation, mergers/acquisitions in the works, etc. Then they act out of fear or hope.
I’m glad I spent all my money on women and booze.
Think about it. Think how stupid the average person is. Then realize that half the population is dumber than that
‘poor schmuck’? There’s a reason why ‘banker’ sounds like ‘wanker’ poor the rest of us who are getting shafted by the global eco crisis… the £ will be worth nothing in 6 months!
What the hell… this one too close to home?
Probably. I don’t really have anything I can discuss on it.
1) Now that he’s living in his parent’s house he can go back to being a democrat?
2) Reply – “No, I gave that room to a man that wasn’t a total failure.”
3) Alternatively, something involving the house and the real estate crisis. Or something about crying to sleep at night, because grown men crying is often funny.
P.S. – I am leftward leaning myself and don’t live with my parents, I just really like that joke. Can u has sence of humor??/?
no, but he will be….
“No honey- they’re foreclosing on the house tomorrow.”
lol!!
That would be funny, if only it was funny. If you get my drift.
ROFL! Of course!
Heck, I’m not even surprised. I wouldn’t even be surprised if it gets down to the 6K range. The market has been way over inflated for way to long now, like all balloons, eventually the air will run out.
Unfortunately that air is our money. X_X
But when you try to breathe money, your voice gets all high and squeaky.
Depends on the money.
>_>
<_<
Are you still talking metaphorically? Or has America actually started to use oxygen as a form of currency?
That’s an idea
Shhhh, they’ll start taxing us on it!!
But but but… I like breathing… Would there be a burp tax?
It would be a tax CUT because you send air back into the atmosphere.
Excellent. I love to give. And take…
Hey great!
Cut the Cheese and get a tax cut!
I’ll be rolling in it!
Money, that is.
Clear Gold…
Swimming pools, movie stars…
Paper cuts >.<
Fire burns.
Acid sizzles.
Cheney kills.
Well, this is what gets me. That was never real money, it was a bunch of people pretending something was more valuable than it really was. All this ‘value’ lost in the markets, what was it, exactly? Did factories disappear? Is there another dust bowl? Has anything real been lost? No. Do people not need houses, food, & clothes anymore? Funny, they still do. Are there still enough people and machines to make enough for everyone? Yes, there still are. So, what’s the problem again?
All the rich people are losing money, and all the poor people who bought houses they couldn’t afford are having problems paying for them.
Poor schmucks, I don’t play the markets, and I rent an apartment.
No argument over people pretending real estate & money were more valuable than they really were, but here’s why people are worried:
“Did factories disappear?” you ask. Actually, yes. Most of America’s industry has been moved to third world nations where companies can work people 16 hours a day for 25¢ an hour with no bathroom or lunch breaks. That capital infrastructure still exists, just not in places that are immediately accessible by the U.S. We’ve been importing the majority of our consumer goods for a long, long time now. Since oil is getting so expensive, and our dollar is devaluing faster than a snowflake melts in a blast furnace, it’s going to get quite expensive for us to continue importing our goods; and since our manufacturing infrastructure has been offshored — we’re shortly going to be in “quite a dilly of a pickle”, to use the Depression-era phrase.
Is there another dust bowl? Not here in the United States, but the Great Depression was a global event. In the original depression, the dust bowl affected the U.S. mid-west. It might interest you to know that today, there’s currently a dust bowl plaguing Africa. Furthermore, although the original dust bowl destroyed the food-making capacity of the mid-west, this was only one of a series of factors that reduced the global food supply. There were other states and places in the world that that had crops destroyed by a series of extreme weather weather events (i.e., record freezes and record droughts) just before and just after the market crash of ‘29. This leading to a world-wide food shortage. We’re having the same thing occurring today — extreme weather events destroying entire sections of the global food economy. Don’t you remember all that on the news prior to the market crash about the “world food shortage”?
Sorry to have to shit in your punchbowl, Seth, but there it is. Things are looking pretty grim. If you study the Great Depression, you’ll find a lot of factors that are being echoed today.
Most of America’s industry? Where are you getting that? I’ve heard that America’s manufacturing sector has fluctuated between 15-20%, historically, and that it’s at about 16% now. Maybe I’m wrong about that?
I have lost over 50k if you look at beginning of the year to now, but I’m not worried. The shares are still there and it will recover in time (which I have). The folks that really should be crying right now are the ones that were planning on pulling the money out of their 401Ks and IRAs in the next year or so, they will feel the pinch.
Well, I know that stock value has been impacted, and this will impact anyone near retirement age, but what I guess I mean is, why? There is no physical reason for this downturn, no shortage of anything real. It’s all in our heads, and if an economic system can let the collective imagination of a very few of it’s participants ruin things for the rest of us, it isn’t a very good system
It is the money invested into the companies for shares of their profits. As those stocks fall, so too does the money invested. Thus a lot of capital was lost.
Here’s something even more scary than all our money disappearing and having to move back in with mom… Click my name.
They are trying to steal ANOTHER election. I know that’s a blanket statement, and I’d be inclined to disbelieve it myself as it’s so sad, but it happenned in SIX (6!) states!! Too much to be a coincidence.
It really is impossible to make 15 posts without someone throwing the political blame around, even if it’s completely unrelated.
Pardon me, but there wasn’t a “relevant” thread as yet, seeing as some of the news just came out. However, the economic crisis and the election are closely tied together and having ALL of our votes count should be paramount.
Dismissing my post out of hand was uncalled for.
You could have waited until there was a relevant thread. Probably tomorrow morning.
Why wait when she can start one? Not like it wasn’t going happen anyway. She is rather pleasant to talk to so I don’t mind.
Uhm, I read the article and I don’t see a problem. If you have a system that is designed to remove folks based on a computer program errors will happen. It is up to every single one of us to insure our right to vote. If you find yourself unable to vote in the primaries, you should still have plenty of time to fix it by Nov 4th.
Worried, contact your voter registration folks and make sure you are on the rolls!
Okay, that’s pretty funny. I shouldn’tve laughed, but…I did.
Exactly! Can’t you see him showing up? He’ll probably even say, ” Like, how come you changed my room around?”
You put a hot tub where my bed used to be?!
Ewwww… have you two been having *sex* in my room?! Mom! Dad!
*shudders* Moms and Dads don’t have sex!
Oh yes they do and lots of it. Hot, dirty, naughty sex… With costumes, props, and rope. On camera. I have a subscription to their site.
You are an evil, evil man. I can has brain bleach now?
All out but I do have Brain Draino?
Ah @#$%! I agree with Seth
Why are your suits on the floor next to the hotub…OMG…AHHHHHH!
Dynamite caption Lol!
Yes, but it’s still in New York so the rent is $27,000.50/wk. utilities not included.
Poor baby. I hope Mom will take him back under her wing and bake pumpkin pie for him.
I would prefer chocolate cream pie or pecan pie as my humility/coming home pie.
Just be glad I didn’t innocently type ‘cherry pie’. Because the danger was very real.
I love it when my girl plays innocent. Then I have to use “force” like the disgustingly evil man I am. She is all smiles today.
Would you please stop that?
You’re playing into every single one of my kinks and I don’t have an evil man to act them out with 
Your girl is so lucky!
What? Force, rope, biting, outfits, sexual rp, hair tugging, spanking, a couple other things, those are yours too? Wow, and hear I thought telling you about how I used the Dragonfly sleeve rope method last night while she was dressed as a school girl wouldn’t be teasing.
And thanks love. I aim to please and please and please.
*here
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes
You would’ve probably sent me into a lust-induced coma had you mentioned it yesterday. Now, I come prepared. Somewhat.
Good, then I will try not to mention floggers, growling in the ear, and wax play while I’m at it. I wouldn’t want to strain any of your preparations.
…thank you for your consideration.
*falls into lust-induced coma*
*puts you into a comfy bed and tucks you in with a kiss on the forehead* There, enjoy the coma.
Fabulous caption!

That broker, who likely makes $200 K+ a year …if he HASN’T already paid for a house and/or have $1 million+ invested …..is a fool.
