QWAK,you are IN the SECOND great DEPRESSION!
QWAK,Eggs,That 300% to 400% increases in "VALUE" is an economic OPTICAL ILUSION! :( IT only LOOKS that way because the VALUE OF the US DOLLAR has fallen THAT much over the last 10 years! :(
I just "LOCKED IN" actual purchasing power each time I saved up some CASH and because I know about BANKERS and the STOCK MARKET -- I bought GOLD and SILVER -- not all that much realy -- I am FAR from being a WEALTHY person -- but I will NEVER be POOR.
I did not TRY to HAVE it ALL -- perhaps that is WHY -- I got ALL I NEED? ;) I don't need that MUCH! :)
People will be forced to live with in there means REAL FAST now -- NO MORE CREDIT! :(
Both SAVING and paying off DEBT are very HARD to DO -- GAMBLING is for FOOLS -- SAVING is what WISE people do -- it is how they SURVIVE!;)
