It's pretty easy to post the opposite in this market and be right once in a great while.

You do understand this is all tom foolery.

The only one's that know the market are those that control it.

The rest is a crap shoot, and no way predictable with computers trading in nano seconds based on programmed algorithm's that beat every day trader by about 15 min.

Wonder how hard it is for a computer to calculate millions of trades over 15 min. and then beat the bets to the finish....

India is up 470

Some consolation to missing out on the DOW. Sold all my short term plays for a handsome profit.

That sounds perfectly awesome. The million bucks threw me for a second.

Then i thought oh... after hyper inflation, a correction and the subsequent zero's are kicked off a Trillion dollar happy meal..

A million will probably be worth something in 30 yrs.

Best of luck to Prophet A.C.

I was being figurative I am not even sure if I can achieve my goals, but that's the objective

In 30 years, the world will be a much worse place to live in with increased wars, resource contention and strife. Baby boomers had everything in the world and this is where we are today. Today's Gen Y is nothing but unemployed youth doing occupy wall street, and this generation is going to do much worse. Happy times are over. Diligent and planned asset protection is the only way to go. And even that is no guarantee.
