Thanks to Enron, MCI and Arthur Anderson, the NYSE is now down to 9126.82, and NASDAQ is at 1423.99. How low will it go? |

In late afternoon trading Friday, the blue-chip Dow Jones industrial average was down 415 points at 7,994 -- well below the 8,235-point level where it closed on Sept. 21. ERI-You owe me a beer. I had bet that it would fall below 8 by the end of the week. |

Unless it was in Enron, WorldCom or OmniMedia.... |
They closed the market at 4:00 est. Then it rose back up AFTER THE BELL to the current amount of 8,019.26. Maybe they were still processing for 20 minutes. Maybe, but I wonder if someone did not buy a bunch at the end to get it above 8k? |
i've gained a lot in my shorter term investments. money is an object. money is no object. |

Just an old Mazda, too many books, a three storey log lodge in the woods, a kick ass snow blower, and a tractor. Oh yeah, power washer, two tablesaws, and a rototiller. You know, basic survival tools. Some might say I'm worth-less. But I am wealthy beyond my imagination nonetheless. It's all funny money anyway and I won't live long enough to deprive my offspring of any use of it. Whatever will be left. Now is the time to buy buy buy. If you have the money, invest it now. Buy utilities and buy banks. Then buy buy buy real estate if there's something left to play with. And if you are worried about everything falling apart, then max your credit cards and keeping applying for more credit and don't look back and have no remorse. The key, though, is to then give it all away to someone less fortunate, all of it, every last dime, every last suv, every last fur coat. Give it all away. Then, wearing heavy work boots, walk quietly into the Gulf of Mexico at sunset, knowing you've done your best. Keep walking. |

I suppose IF I retire, there won't be enough anyway. Live on faith, believe in God not the almighty dollar, but tie your camel securely. Brace yourself, my crystal ball (cracked though it be) says it ain't over yet. Double tie that camel. Thanks Dave for missing me. |
