    [quote=Eugene]It depends on who you read. Mish’s blog is on the depressing side of things, because he starts off with the premise that modern economic theory is fundamentally wrong and nothing Obama & Bernanke do can possibly fix things. Therefore he intentionally overlooks or explains away any possible green shoots.[/quote]

    Its funny you say that because if you watch Mish’s youtube video at Google’s “Free Lunch” he makes the statement “it is important to take your ques from what the market is doing not what you think it should be doing.

    Plus the fact it has been stated by many pundents that he was one of the few that has a portfolio that grew last year. So he must be taking advantage of the green shoots.

    Any suggetions as to other blogs?

    [quote=peterb]One must be pragmatic in the real world. Planet Earth, no one gets out alive. Live your life accordingly. Deression is for people who want their mommy every time they dont get everything they ever wanted. Focusing on what you dont have, will not make it better.[/quote]

    What is wrong with depression? It is definently not ppl that want their mommy when things get tough. I take some offence to that. I am quite content in this life with what I have. However, when you read what the future can become why wouldn’t that get you down? When you see friends (smart driven individuals) sit on the sideline for years or modest families that can’t support themselves (even when they understood thier means in life)… That is depressing.

    I am considered a cold individual by some but even I have a little heart… You should too.

    I don’t think there is anything to get depressed about. I have always had a distrust and aversion to the system and the knowlege that I am pretty powerless over it, so I don’t understand much of what these experts are talking about anyway.They are still yapping so it isn’t the end of the world. I find Rich pretty easy to follow and his content seems to be more meaningful to my existence. While I don’t expect him to be right all the time, he seems trustworthy.

    That said, I like the fact that the rest of us don’t have reputations at stake. I find that what the steady and successful “non-experts” have to say carries just as much or more weight with me.
