Sir... I do not get depressed over the direction I think the world is headed. I am alive and I am seeing very interesting crap. Whether this experience is one and done or I get to understand eternity, I am having a great time.
I personally think we are going to see very dire times. I think that we will experience worse than 1930's depression. I may be wrong, but it would seem to me that mathematics is on my side. I personally think those who frequent this board are renaissance men (women) and think outside the box. I also think those here have skills and knowledge that those at a desk on a phone don't have and will probably will wish they did. I see many blisters in their future. I also see the people here as having a one on one connection to people instead of cell phones and video games. I think that will help in situations where social skills and negotiation familiarity will be of importance.
Someone once said they would rather be governed by the first 200 names in the phone book than the politicians we are being "lead" by now (for you younger people, a phone book was a book distributed by the phone company and listed the numbers they had. The names were listed in alphabetical order). I for one would rather have a garage mechanic orchestrating the monetary policy rather than the bunch of crooks at the Fed.
I guess we will see where this world will take us. Good luck.
