Weird Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 If you had placed US $30,000.00 under your mattress 20 years ago, you, today would have US $20,000.00! Go figure! Technically if I had US $30,000.00 under my mattress 20 years ago I'd still have US $30,000.00 under my mattress today. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian2 Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 I wouldn't, twenty years ago I'd have kept sneaking a couple of hundred out for a night on the town and getting laid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob73 Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 My guess is that it won't last long. The US is facing so many problems financialy. Obama and McCain both taking the piss with their promises. The only thing they can do is raise taxes and get out of debt but they can't do that coz the public needs CHANGE.........so i think it will only get worse and worse with the dollar the next few years. Try and stay out of wars might help...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sporty Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 The US, has seen, and handle it, most of the troubles. Others have yet to see the worst of it. Dollar Strong, thru years end. USD --- UP Euro --- Down BGP ---- Down Most of the rest follow, like puppies tied to a cars bumper. Not Japan, lesson learned in the 90s. Baht --- Down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
