Well u can start masturbating with those central bra ads. Pic quality is good and wide range of selection. I like the tight sport bra types on those creamy skins. By any means I don't reco taking anti depressant medications, ssri and sleeping pills.

allanos Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Many people are out of touch with reality and don't see the bigger picture. The US stock market is falling, which has an effect on stock exchanges around the world and despite the Fed printing money in just about the biggest QE ever. It is also now buying corporate bonds and etf's, to no avail, and will soon run out of options. 401k holders are going to see their value eroded shortly. For those who know nothing about gold, or BTC, perhaps a little bit of education in those two assets might itself be a good investment. The only direction for gold over the next few years is UP. BTC is highly volatile, but it has proved its value as a performing asset over the years. The value of Fiat is falling daily. See what one hundred dollars could buy 20 years ago, compared with today. And the past surely is a great indication of what the future holds. As always, a basket of assets - stocks, property, gold, BTC, and Fiat - makes the most sense, to even-out risk, over time.

I will give you 10 bitcoin today, and you will give me only half of your predicted sum on December 31, so lets say 5 million. isn't that a good deal? Of course I'm gonna request some collateral, but that will be no problem I presume 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is, it isn't the end of the world, nor will it be. Your future dystopia is unlikely to play out, so you should also be securing an income-stream. Much good will your hide-out and provisions do you if that's all you have to fall back on in coming years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your calculations are pre-covid-19. Not that I want to stress you out, but you had better keep the calculator in your hand and reassess daily as we're heading into unknown territory.

Along with the usual 400,000 or 800,000 Baht in "savings" locked away for their visas. But the true bulk of their net worth is the 1,800,000 Baht condo they bought that's now worth 500,000 Baht.

The point is that we have no idea of what will happen to fiat currencies as governments print money to try to save economies.
