I'm going to use my gig. That way I can get the legs from the toads, and spur his ole ass at the same time.
Makin a run to Tennessee for a load of moonshine. Things have been getting pretty dry at the cement pond.

Financial Crisis - Meeting Suggested

As ya know world is shocked/scared as they should be by Wall Street stock drop lowest in decades and actual Wall Street firms, AIG Insurance and even Hewlett Packard, manufacturing, etc buisineses already or soon be going bankrupt? Thousands of unemployed! This will be a dominoe effect of horrific porportions.
As ya know this will trikel down in every avenue of US life as we know it! Gov't ain't got the money to save it as it was wasted on pork barrel funs and unecessary wars. The rich cause the problems and us tax payers pay for it...what happens when middle class is unemployed and homeless & can't pay taxes what then?????
Ironic I used to also be in real estate and there was a law before republicans changed that you couldn't buy a house w/o great credit and only house value = to 25% of salary...then changed where anyone w/o job or credit could buy any house....this is what started this spiral...now NIGHTMARE!
Millions will be layed off so may be opportunity to get open positions here filled. However, may need to use your Goat Security to keep MOP from being overrun by desparet illegal immigrants of all types. US is big enough to welcome all but our island might sink!
Think we all need to get together and have finanacial meeting to access our status. Also assure MOP citizens that we are financially secure. Know our 401K stocks & CD's are protected however interest will be lower. Thank god for overseas banks in Switzerland-need to look at moving funds there. Or I guess we can make our own!
However, may need to make quick decisions on where to move stocks and diversify more! I would tell all to make sure they never put over $100K cash or CD into 1 bank - use several banks so FDIC will insure ya. But anyone w/indiviually owned stock god bless em! Also, be very aware when investing in their own company's stock regardless of matching!
We don't need the money but could be opportunity to buy stock, business & real estate. Then after investments grow as eventually will we can use profits to provide US cash for economic crisis, help charities and service organizations. China is buying most of US while cheap - maybe we can buy before them and help save US from their own ignorance and prevent communisim!
It's about time some body helped the US instead of the US saving the world while letting itself die a slow death. We could just let it fail but we at MOP are better people than most of world. Just my opinion.
Who is your Senior CPA at MOP - I'm sure they got this all under control but if ya don't mind I'd like to see a copy of our financials and current budget. Used to be Financial Analyst so maybe can help a bit. As an independtly owned Country we can set our own financial laws if haven't already? You probably already have as you are so organized....just a bit concerned (understatement of year).
We are probably safe at MOP since not in US - damn aren't these depressions depressing?
Sorry for bummer guys - old job skills don't go away when ya retire or loose most brain functions dammit!
Sure if we all combine brains we can do great!
I know boring subject but had to get outta system and keep bit of optimistic dream! Not all are as blessed as us at MOP including our own families.

Welcome
Join This Group
Here is a new place where we can play games and post off topic comments, about anything. This group is created because of the new posting policies DS has created. We want to play nice, but we can also think of this as a freedom zone.
