Thanks FB

Stick around please !

Thank you for responding. I will stick around...electronically, but my bones are moving to southern Arkansas next week. I may be silent until my umbilical cord is reconnected out in the piney woods. Probably will have to use Hughes Net again, which is expensive...taking my dish with me.

To me....I don't care if silver goes to $2.00 an oz.....I didn't buy it to turn a profit.....I bought it for other reasons.....if, indeed, the bottom drops out for silver, then I will just buy more.....I don't care what the so called "experts" say......there has never been a time in history when fiat currency was more valuable than silver or gold......

Thank you for responding, Amess. Love your Ayn Rand quotes. She is one of my favorite writers.

I totally agree with your long-term prognosis on the US Dollar. However, don't think for one minute that TPTB are going to allow you to acquire large quantities of silver or gold without trying to destroy your ability to hold it (deflation). They are going to force us to sell our holdings in order to buy food. Some of us will endure, but unlike Faulkner, we will not prevail. This is why I am moving to Arkansas next week...to grow my own food. This is survival time. I'm old enough to know how to hitch a mule to a plow...they don't need diesel...just grass and a little corn.

Thanks for the kind words, Scuff. Also, thank you for introducing me to ION. I think I have found a new home. Hopefully your tutorage will help me navigate the HTML
software...thanks for that too.

Sorry my bones got too old before I fell in love with straight pool. You are a good teacher, but didn't have much to work with. Maybe the warm Ark. climate will help my game.

So Scruff sends emails to all the new guys about who is cool and who is not on here??? According to him?. Funny, The best advice I got in the millitary at my first station was when A Chief told me."be carefull of the first guy that gets your ear on here and wants to tell you who to "watch out" for, its not to your benefit"
watch out for me buddy!!!...I like truth or at least keep it close, or at least keep it "open" if not...im an Asshole if not!
Other than that...Welcome aboard! This has to be the best place by far! Even with me here.

He's a good friend of mine polesmoker, what's it to ya? And you were never mentioned, he can see that you're an asswipe all by himself....

Quote:In closing, I would like to bring everyone's attention to the fact that the evaporation of wealth that occured during the 2000-02 dot.com crash and the crash of 2007-09, was in excess of $100 trillion. Nobody knows the exact amount. We will probably never know. Add to that evaporation the losses of wealth in Europe and other industrial economies that trade with the US and Europe.

Lost my brother to suicide after the dot com crash, lost my home and life savings as a result of the 2007 clusterf*ck.

Great post! And welcome!

Dear Sarah. Thank you for reading my thread and the kind words of welcome and encouragement.
I am truly sorry to hear about the loss of your brother, your home and life savings.
I guess we all know who created the housing bubble. Have you viewed the Frontline documentary, "The Warning?" It should be required viewing for every American.

Chris Duane of the popular website dont-tread-on.me has released a two part series that completely exposes the full scale silver manipulation that has and is currently taking place.
