1976, As Relevant as the Buggy Whip
- Andy Hoffman -
Miles Franklin
Possible by definition means inevitable otherwise it would be impossible.
The problem for the predictor is when.
The problem for the listener is CRS: Can't remember shit.
The rats followed the Piped Piper to oblivion.
I'm not selling, seeking subscriptions or anything most folks would understand.
I engage in self-defense. If I can help others defend their economic future, they probably won't come after my meager assets.
I am in complete agreement with you on the chartists auguring the future by examining the rotting entrails of goats long dead.
Were they right more than 55-60% of the time, they should have retired decades ago to the Cayman Islands.
They weren't and they haven't.
Human nature is what it is; animal nature.
Fear leads to fight, flight or fright freeze.
Ergo that phrase from Frank Herbert's "Dune". "Fear is the mind killer."
Greed is natural. We exist today because our fore-fathers were gluttonous. And the wisest were generous to their allies.
The snake-oil salesman capitalizes on those animal attributes that helped our specie continue its seemingly wretched existence.
It must be the only skill they have.
Keep ranting. The only form of insurance we can truly depend on is self-insuring.
Security is strength.
Like I said, possible means inevitable.
Familial wealth is a cumulative process.

I do read their diatribes. Even a fool can teach you how to avoid their fate.
Ten, fifteen years ago, a friend with a MS in Entomology told me that the stuff on Art Bell's "Coast to Coast" radio show had to be true or they couldn't air it.
It has been my observation that the general public agrees. Once presented in the media, it MUST be true unless the brave few pull back the curtain to expose the fraud. Usually it is a waste of effort, but better to save the few if possible than consign them all to the knacker.
Choose wisely. And did I mention, "Keep ranting?"

Beginning of the headline :
It’s rare that I react to articles by newsletter writers that utilize sensationalistic “memes” to drive sales; such as, to name the worst of the lot, “$950 gold” Harry Dent. Yes, the same Harry Dent that forecast Dow 41,000 and NASDAQ 20,000 in 1999 – to be reached in, gets this, by 2008; topped only by his April 2011 prediction that the Dow would fall to 3,000 by 2014. Dent’s track record is as bad as any I’ve come across. However, he is clearly a fantastic marketer and charismatic speaker –...
