  3. You, europeans have to stop taking afternoon naps and become more competitive.

    Please stop blaming the USA for your troubled economy.

  6. Your solution is to shut the barn door after the horses have already escaped?

    Back before the Dollar collapsed, I protected only 20% of my net worth with gold, silver, EUR, and CHF. The other 80% was kept in Dollar denominated assets, unfortunately. However, I bet 99%+ of Americans didn't even protect as much of their assets as I did.

    My question is: How many people do YOU personally know, who had the foresight to protect 100% of their net worth against dollar devaluation, six to ten years ago? Can't think of a single person, can you?

    I remember getting out of dollars into euros and gold back in 2002. Bought gold at $322.90 and euro at 0.99. I just wish I hadn't gone into euros. Gold in euros atthe time was around eur320 and is now above eur500!

  9. I'm not sure he will listen to you but I am certain that you are exactly the kind of mindless sheep that he is trying to assure with his stand-up comedian acts about inflation. I guess they did a surrvey and found the ideal target audience to give to their playwright. Not many of the sort here, but it seems you represent the masses. Good to fade.

  10. I liked the part where Bernanke said
    There will be growth in Spring....

    Just like "Chauncey Gardiner" in Being There...
