Game Over (Game On?) for Financial Markets?

Buy low sell high. You can’t really fuck up the “buy low” part today. :highfive:

go buy AIG, FRE, FNM.

on a side note, I’m going to go read the article about the father killing the child rapist again, that will make my day :tup:

It’s at times like this that I wish I had $20k liquid so I could just buy…

sigh

Have fun making money everyone

I see Fox reporting that the Republicans started voting no after good old Nancy Pelosi had to get up there and say, “This bill is a continuation of the last 8 years of failed Bush policies, but we have to vote for it”.

Opponents said part of the reason for the opposition from Republicans was what they termed a partisan speech by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, said one GOP source.

“Pelosi’s partisan speech has caused our members to go berserk and may cost us any remaining chance to pass the bill,” the source said.

Pelosi had said that Congress needed to pass the bill, even though it was an outgrowth of the “failed Bush economic policies” of the last eight years.

Now I don’t know if it’s true, because it is Fox, but if so WTF is she thinking? Really, you’re going to play bullshit games like that on something no one is really happy about passing?

fucking seriously.

not sure if that’s true, but if it is I’d imagine it’s b/c they knew they couldn’t get enough republicans on and wanted to try to force it with an all dem vote.

If it is a REAL QUOTE, I’d donate to anyone who wanted to challenge her in a primary

should we all be worried even more now?

EOTW 2008

Yeah, like I said, it’s Fox so even I’m not claiming it as 100% true, but I wouldn’t put it past her. She doesn’t know how to turn off the partisan snipes, even when the nation’s economy could end up as collateral damage.

It’s tough to prove because google news is so slow to update, and even if it is true you know damn well cnn/msnbc aren’t going to mention it.

I am debating taking an additional 10k on a student loan. Wont need to pay it back till after graduation at 3-6% interest.

this is probably the only time that I will ever say this: Probably a good idea.

28% of the people wanted this.
Most people are not happy with congress.
Elections are coming up.
Coincidence? I think not.

Edit: Side note on investments; Even with this “crash” I still have 15 acres and a nice cozy shelter to live in.:slight_smile:
I guess if it rains the stock holders can hold their stock certificates over their heads.:gotme:

I would say a lot more than 28% of america is so dumb they shouldn’t be allowed to drive.

Hope everyone sold their FRE/FNM last week and is rebuying now :mamoru:

I would say more like 72%.:slight_smile:
The 28% aren’t the fucktards that caused this problem.

I never sold, gonna hold out to $25/share :lol:

I should buy more though.

Damn scottrade’s 3 day waiting period on new funds for penny stocks.

So aside from AIG, FNM, and FRE… What else will I be thanking myself in the future for taking advantage of back in the fall of ought-eight?

So, instead of writing one $700 billion check, maybe they can write everyone of those tax payers a $7000 check instead.

100 million $700 checks = $700 billion.

That’s a lot of fucking money out of my pocket, as well as all of you…

is there a local office? You can drop off a check and it will go through without the 3 day delay.

There is one on Main street in Williamsville :slight_smile:
