Financial Crisis

[Naam]

Has been widely discussed. A total waste of money, except that instead of taxing road users, there is probably now a whole department of hundreds BIBs sitting uncomfortably in their tight uniforms checking out all the cyberporn, and dreaming of a bit of light relief in the karaoke bars after work.

:D

this is some sort of NAZI terror! i demand free access to all porno sites for the "prophet", the "king that possesses the golden touch" and of course for "12". if the thai authorities won't comply they will end up in The Hague and sentenced together with Omar Hassan Ahmad al-BASHEER for crimes against humanity!

after all... what else can a bachelor do in Thailand to satisfy his sexual needs besides visiting internet porno sites? other countries have prostitutes in abundance to comply. why is the oldest profession, namely prostitution, forbidden in Thailand?

You know I thought it would be a big enough wake up call when the FDIC raised their limit last year to 250k per depositor. Anyone with a computer & a calculator should have known that was the warning flare.

It was for me

Now they the FDIC have gone to commercials on the radio & TV using Suzie for ad's

Funny but IMHO it seems they are actually waking up more folks than calming them

They have in the UK also

3.2m 'keep savings under the mattress'

Research carried out by insurer More Than found that 60% of savers no longer have confidence in the banks' ability to safeguard their money and a further 8%, or 3.2 million people, are keeping all of their savings at home.

From your article.....

Furthermore, keeping money at home means it will not earn any interest, as it would in a savings account.

hahahahahah Interest....They call that interest?

If you would like a simple explanation of where we are and why have a look at these string of 21 short videos. You may not agree with it all, but it is never the less interesting as it covers many interrelated issues you may not have been aware of and tries to tie it all together, it also provides food for thought on where you future investments should lie:

I had just lifted my head out of the sand and was pleasantly surprised to see the FTSE chugging ahead full-steam, UK house prices going up instead of down and Nottingham Forest had 2 wins in a week

Then it all went pear-shaped when I picked up MoneyWeek from my door mat. Now I have to liquidate everything and go and live in a mud hut, drinking beer Chang with 12D !

this is some sort of NAZI terror! i demand free access to all porno sites for the "prophet", the "king that possesses the golden touch" and of course for "12".

The only quotes from the above, that I recognize is "nazi terror".

You, of course, learned this in your schoolboy history classes. Just as I learned that "Britannia rules the waves"

You, of course, were never taught your little truth, but I, on the other hand, was taught our load of old "bolleaux".

2 trips in the '50's to the continent soon divested me of my 'wisdom.

Upon my return from the second trip......reading between the lines of the Telegraph, (yes, that's where the monica comes from... our only source) became the house game.

Once the game was afoot, my reward was 6 of the best. Some of the real world was divulged to me.....the penalty meant nothing.

Now, about you familiarity with pornographical jargon......Is Mrs Naam familiar with these terms? would she approve?

Beware, dachshunds are well known "grasses".

Somewhat OT ( like, the rest wasn't?) golf pro friend of mine had a Jack Russell, decided to add to the family after 2 years and bought a Jack Russell puppy.

The older JR then got ran over by a car (duh) in the car park. vet....animal hospital....all tests....hmmm, no breaks/fractures, dog continued to walk on 3 legs???

Very strange.

1 week after adult JR returns.....Junior starts walking on 3 legs.

Can we trade this Dr Naam? Seems like a bond link somewhere.

Regards.

Sorry 12, the document is indeed a bit of heavy reading for a sunday morning.

And Jcon, when did you stopped with that white powder...........

Anywaysy, I am now in Indonesia and will check what is going on here regarding the economy and general feel of the peeps. New company is treating me well as they reserved a suite for me. The taxi company (Blue, silver and goldbird) have upgraded their limo's to Benz and other luxury vehicles so bizz must be doing well. Hotel occupancy rate of roughly 78% for this week.

(And Chaimai I see you popped back in and I would like to ask you some question regarding mortgages. Would it be OK if I send you a PM?

I just need some things confirmed or not confirmed).

i wish i hadn't open my big mouth and i apologise to "12". a few minutes ago after i made a posting in a well known american financial forum (bradynet.com) which i frequent since 1996 i got this message:

"Sorry, the web site you are accessing has been closed by Royal Thai Police due to inappropriateness such as pornography, gambling or contain any information which is deemed to violate national security."

the message appeared only once and i can access the site without any problems.

I'ts called Crème brûlée et ses langues de tigre and spoken in teletiger land. That's close to Bangladesh, around the corner of North western Myanmar, formerly known as Burma and in a long forgotten valley of East India. Only few manage to speak it.

Paul Krugman knows nothing about basic economics. He is a brain dead fool

true! the real experts are posting on Thaivisa. or has anybody seen Krugman posting here?

If you believe anything Krugman says then you are under his spell of economic witchcraft.

Marc Faber 8-26-09

This guy is my third favorite Austrian economist...

...and the favourite of all americans who will all soon billionaires.

quote:

U.S. Inflation to Approach Zimbabwe Level, Faber Says

"I am 100 percent sure that the U.S. will go into hyperinflation," Faber said. "The problem with government debt growing so much is that when the time will come and the Fed should increase interest rates, they will be very reluctant to do so and so inflation will start to accelerate."

facit: when one has reached a certain level of acceptance with the media one can present any bullshit without being ridiculed.

Well you presented some very thoughtful and insightful information as to why you are convinced that hyperinflation will not happen. Maybe I will reconsider my gold positions.

i hate it when somebody tries to put words in my mouth i never said or meant. i clearly stated that i consider Faber's forecast of "zimbabwean inflation" for the USA as bullshit. nothing more, nothing less. based on several indications inflation is a possibility in the years to come. whether it will be the normal inflation we are experiencing since ages or hyperinflation or no inflation at all but deflation... i have no idea and leave the prophecies to the expert scholars of the Greenlandish, Finnish, Siberian and Tyrolean Economic Schools.

haha, I get it, you don't like the referance to Austrian economics but that is just what it is called, its just the name. Although I trust Bernanke to curb inflation as much as I trust a cross eyed ladyboy on yabba to not give me itchy nuts.

I really enjoy the Austrian jokes from my German friends, though they're not as good as the Norwegian/Swedish jokes.

i wish i hadn't open my big mouth and i apologise to "12".

Well really Naam, that is quite out of character, this momentary lapse will be a small setback in your aim; "striving to be the most hated poster on ThaiVisa". But anyway, apology accepted, no hard feelings eh?

a few minutes ago after i made a posting in a well known american financial forum (bradynet.com) which i frequent since 1996 i got this message:

"Sorry, the web site you are accessing has been closed by Royal Thai Police due to inappropriateness such as pornography, gambling or contain any information which is deemed to violate national security."

Beijing's derivative default stance rattles market

BEIJING, Aug 31 (Reuters) - A weekend report that Chinese state-owned companies will be allowed to default on commodity derivative contracts provoked anger and dismay among investment banks on Monday as they feared a damaging precedent.

China's SOE regulator, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC), has told six foreign banks that SOEs reserved the right to default on contracts, Caijing magazine quoted an unnamed industry source as saying in an article published on Saturday. [iD:nLT454907]

the homes of US citizens and force them to have vaccinations ? I dont care what anyone

I just can't accept the notion that increasing crude oil prices can lead a recovery. I accept that some funds and sovereign ministries of the treasury needed crude to be trading higher, at least for awhile. but that's an altogether different thing.

I read market breifing notes claiming markets are trading lower based on crude weakness, as if that's a bad thing. Well that's just bullshit.
