funnily, Message 24710319 <<i will bet he will tell us it actually is his house, built on his now traceable land, and that we are all jealous losers>>

and gad, ooh, look see :0) Message 24710327 <<Precision Craft designed my mountain home you jealous Losers>>

i will bet he has a short wick Message 24710337 , and will either keep thick-skinned doubling up until the series of trades turn a profit just as he did with the imaginery trade for yahoo, or

claim a big gain on a penny of profit on a quadrillion of open positions, or

shamelessly lie in some other way, again, as here Message 24529367 ... i bring up this jewel of a note to allow the sad and unfortunate, friendless and bitter hulk of a slug a graceful exit by the gentle reminder, as one would gently nudge a trespasser at a fancy club, as all try to not pay impolite attention and carry on with hushed conversations, or

just claim he actually runs a gold exchange after having spent months designing the layout Message 24710327 - precious :0)

:0) i love the keyboard, and hope blazenwick does not leave us.

this is the trouble with non-paying members, that they can just disappear into the dark night and never be heard of again except as some other wasting slug of a non-subscriber, with the original twit forever beyond ping range.

The bankers climbed the saddle and were riding mankind. If you rent a good, you have to make that good scarce so that people pay a lot to use that good.

Bankers need scarcity of money to be able to fleece the one who needs that money. The US, pre-2006 was deriving 30% of all corporate profits from the finance sector. UK became a finance sector because it wanted to share the profits NY was having.

Cheap USD threw a spanner on the banking sector's work. There's too much money around and cannot keep it artificially scarce as when the USD was the world's reserve currency.

That amount of money now goes around the globe financing projects and creating wealth where it is productively allocated.

It is wonderful for us to see the bankers going down the drain. As long as the industrialists and the capital goods keep rolling around the world.

Scarcity of money means scarcity of everything. 9 years in Africa under my belt, mind you. Capital free to move means plenty of everything. We just have to plant, mine, ship and manufacture.

But don't tell that to the puritans, they will say: No! We have to suffer scarcity! It is there in the bible. Luckily, now the Indians, Chinese, Russians and Brazilians brought a new mindset to economics and 2we will turn this around.
