[quote=partypup]Make no mistake: this thing isn’t coming at us all at once; like a tsunami, it is coming in waves. The question is, when the next wave hits will you be de-sensitized?
[/quote]I think being de-sensitized is not so bad once you’ve prepared yourself. Being hyper-sensitized and in a state of panic is what does the real damage.
[quote=partypup]Or will you take notice and act accordingly and prepare yourself?[/quote]I’m prepared. I have a fishing pole, a water purifier, a book on edible plants, and a peace maker. Everything else is extra. I’ll trade with you but not for paper or pretty metal… ;)[quote=partypup]The old adage goes, “Put a frog in boiling water, and he’ll jump out to save his life.
[/quote]Out of the frying pan, into the fire.[quote=partypup]Don’t be the frog who gets used to the heat, my friend.[/quote]And remember, panic kills. Nothing to do with banking will kill me and I don’t need it to live. I’ve experimented with living off the land and it works so bring it, yee-haw!
All the things that got me ahead of the curve are inside my head, not inside my bank account. If we all start from ground zero I’ll end up ahead again.
