Okay I know he is an idiot but…

Rustico, I’m semi-retired.

I don’t quite understand your post. Other people’s money??

I’d rather have us swallow the bitter medicine today so we’re better off tomorrow.

Man, I remember the RTC days. I was living in Atlanta then and employed as a headhunting placing accountants for a national firm. This was before I started a company doing it.

We tried to get into the RTC to put temps in but it was such a craxy place that we never made much progress. We were able to only do a little business with them.

I would guess that the people who bought those properties back then ended up making a fortune on it. The RTC office was in my office building and they had an entire room filled with brochures and pictures of properties up for sale. They had brand new 20-30 story office buildings included. No telling how cheap they went.

This mess now is so deep and complicated no one really knows how its going to turn out. I read the other day that Bernanke called in some “experts” to give him a face to face refresher course on exactly how these derivatives function. That is pretty scary to think that a smart guy like him doesn’t fully understand them. The problem is the off balance sheet stuff that no one even knows about.

I think that Bush’s plan is best. Just like the chips fall where they may for those who were speculating in the market and for the wall street firms who created the mess but do whatever neccessary to try to minimize the impact to the banking system.

Like it or not if the banks go under we go under.

PW, I had better not hijack the thread.Even though I think it is mostly a crock of shit. You post a lot ,at all hours and have criticized other people’s strategies for making a living, recently military and gov. Thought it would be ironic if you blog from your job.That is what I was fishing at. Bad Rustico.

“Like it or not if the banks go under we go under.”

I like it. I really like it. I’ll make do if it doesn’t happen but I really like it.”Economy? We don’t need no stinking economy!”

jficquette last chimed in with the debunked claim that “illegal immigrants vote all the time.”
After that nonsense was clearly refuted, jficquette now shows up with the same credibility as his hero Junior Bush and WMD in Iraq.

Hey, jficquette, what’s keeping you from re-enlisting to fight the great leaders war??? If your so gung ho, what’s stopping you?

pretty pathetic to continue to want to send others to war when you yerself won’t go and most folks with a nickle of sense know it’s a lie and about oil afterall.
sad.
