Don't take this the wrong way Maad, or anyone else here....but seriously screw anything that comes from Fox News and Glenn Beck with it.

Exactly - We would have to be idiots to believe in facts...

[MaadDaawg]

exactly what's being counted on Rick :

[MaadDaawg]

No offense taken Rev - only problem is they show the various people live on camera actually saying the things they say.. there is no un verified references, yoiu get to see the various players talk about the little people who can be manipulated because they "all have a little Homer Simpson" in them.

There can't be, actually is there no question that the Fed is printing tons of money - They've already announced and started printing QE2 which will be over $600B USD. They've made no contention to the fact that this is being done to monetize the debt, and there is no way in hell you can print money to pay your debts without igniting inflation. Add to all this that Europe, China, India, Japan et al are also just holding on, and it all adds up to one big fuck everyone when the shit goes down.

I'm hoping I (and Glenn) are wrong, but don't see how it could go any other way at this point.. it will get worse before it gets better

Umm I watch Fox personally. I'm not saying they are perfect, but have you seen the shit that's on CNN or MSNBC? All three have their bias but only one has REAL reporters that don't show their true colors when reporting or interviewing people. That is Fox with Brett Beir and Chris Wallace. Even CNN's "reporters" show their bias at times.


That being said, they are in business and need a target audience. It is quite obvious what demographic each channel is going after and I don't see any of them trying to deny it.

Right you are MD, but be careful about putting too many eggs in the gold and silver basket. They aren't the universal commodities they were in days of yore. They are pretty much considered "safe haven" because of a general consensus that they are a safe haven, not because of their intrinsic value. It's starting to stink like tulips, semiconductors, and real estate - just waiting for the pin to poke it. I think Glenn has a message that's good for our country, but he is also stroking the hand that feeds him with his buy gold and save seeds message.

I don't know where you guys should put your resources, but now more than ever is the time to be widely diversified and make sure you have some universal skills. I'm just hoping housing prices plummet a bit more in the next 24 months so I can afford my dream house.

[MaadDaawg]

Shit Patch, I'm hoping the housing market recovers so I won't be underwater anymore. Unfortunately, I think you'll be the winner on this one so be ready.

I own a very small, very small amount of silver and far less gold. I have my portfolio very diverse (I'm into 5 asset classes in my IRA). But, if you recall, I did say stock up on canned goods too : Being unemployed makes it tuff to buy gold in any quantity

The guy that did the "survival seed" commercial that used to air on Glenn Beck was my next door neighbor back then, he's since moved - weird

I put my money in the stock market. Been killing it. Wish I would have sunk more into it a year ago. Banks ain't paying me squat in interest. I know stock market could crash, world could burn but it is what is an its lining my accounts with dough. Gold and silver is too boring. True it will hold its value if the dollar should go ape shit but I figure if that happens the world will be doomed, riots will happen, pandemonium, violence, etc. I try not to listen to too much news as it is bullshat or has alot of bullshat being reported. Jim Cramer was spot on on many of things that have happened since 2007. We will make it thru this. I'm not trippin.
