Now it's playing out just like we said. It's not like we haven't seen this before. Maybe people will learn something this time. I won't hold my breath They’ll forget because there’s no better place for the average Joe to put his money long term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger picture is very scary, Ed. Average Joe got liquidated. And guess who liquidated them? It's a massive money grab. Everyone is counting on it to rocket back but in order to do that it's going to take the same practices that got us here. And at zero % rates there is nowhere to go after the next one.

Think of a waitress or waiter who gets cash tips, think outside the box, not about the lady who is laid off from Macy's.. You are right. I think we may be seeing the end of cash sooner rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I have taken to buying 10 1$ scratch tickets. I give one to the mailman when he comes by, I give them to people taking money for my coffee etc... just a way to say thanks. Wiped for their protection, of course.

We have basically shut down as of 9p.m. last night. But lots of places will remain open. Food stores, liquor stores, Home centers. If you are on the road. You must be heading to one of those places. Otherwise have to stay home. Guess my cruising around with a roadie and listening to Tunes will be put on hold for a while. You own a trucking company?

Maybe you'll learn something about ledgers and debt this time. Your 20/20 hindsight is remarkable. Maybe worry about your own job and employees, and don't concern yourself with what you think you know about me.

Carlos Danger Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I have a month of vacation time this year so I think a week or two off is in order. My main concern is my 94 year old father or my son who is 15. This is like the old Jack Benny skit where he gets mugged at gun point and the crook tells him "your money or your life".........long pause then the mugger in a more agetated voice " I said your money or your life!" Jack Benny quips back "I am still thinking don't rush me" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just calling out the ridiculous "neocon" comment and all you have is professional insults. And if memory serves, you have a financial advisor. Tell us exactly what you have changed in your portfolio and when you did it, or just better yet, quit thinking you have advice to offer me on how to do my job. Thanks.

You have people that do the research on those stocks so don't act like you are the Mastermind behind EJ. Strict regulation needs to be put in place going forward. This can't continue.

Strict regulation needs to be put in place going forward. This can't continue. I've already pointed that out several times about the research I have access too, and made no such claim about being a mastermind. BTW, that research also includes about the markets overall as well, so there's that. Answer my question please. You've already stated that Trump over reacted and shut down the world economy. I'd also like to know what basis you have for saying that as well speaking of masterminds. What regulation specifically, maybe we even agree.

No I don't think Trump over reacted I was trolling the idiot who says this is just a cold. I think Trump has acted appropriately in terms of response, behavior is another issue.
