  • The Escalator of Life Is Going Down (Part 2)  [View article]
    ...aaack!...let me try that again......the ancient problem of "20-20 hindsight"...when things are running smoothly and everybody's making money, very few want to be a party-pooper and very few of the partyers want to attend to what the "poopers" have to say...and this actually makes sense in light of what is known of human psychology...hence, the recurring cycle of booms and busts since some caveman first traded a fur for an arrowhead...and it's unlikely that this cycle will ever be broken or that anyone will ever find a way to successfully mange them...hence, perhaps the most reasonable thing to do is work within the cycle...get while the getting is good and prepare for the day when the going gets tough.
