Participant[quote=CDMA ENG][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.

CE,
You are posing a completely different question here. The OP asks; “does what the experts say get you down” The second; “do you empathize with, or get depressed about those suffering due to the convulsions/changes in the economy, including ourselves if that is the case”.I think we should choose what we decide to call ‘suffering” very carefully. I don’t think being on the sidelines of the game of economic grandiosity should be included. Really struggling for food and shelter is another question of course.

ParticipantThese prognosticators are no more experts than you and me. If they were so sure of themselves, they would put their money where their mouth is and take on massive short positions in anticipation for major corrections south. As for getting depressed about these inept forecasts, remember Dale Carnegie once said, 99% of the things he worried about never happened.
