    saving today is paying off yesterdays debt. why would anyone want to store money for the future that the rats are eating dayly? the key to spending and saving is finding something worthwhile to buy now or in the future.

  • GM Plan to Stay Viable: Cut, Cut, Cut and Count on the Volt [View article]
    Driving a 91honda civic with230k miles. Wifes car is 96 honda with140k miles. Hell will freeze over before I run out of cheap reliable used cars to buy. if there are banks that dont deserve to survive there are car companies that dont either. too bad, gm makes a great diesel truck and has made great small trucks and other models in the past. bad management cost everyone. get the guillotine and lets pare back.

  • America: Is This the End of an Era? [View article]
    our weakness is that we mistake the wealth that came our way from being the last and strongest man standing after ww2 as our rightful "destiny". our strength comes from being able to assemble teams of multi cultural, ethnic,religious, members and have them work together solving problems. bigotry,xenephobia,and our "masterrace of the universe" worldview work against our greatest global strength. we also could use a little more dust bowl work ethic in our under 30 generation, but that will come.

  • Nothing Happened - Or Everything [View article]
    Chris B. If I buy stocks when they sell at 19 times and over the next ten years they sell down to 12 times earnings because of boomers demand for retirement cash, how much are the earnings going to have to increase for me to break even? simply put, do you have a recipe which will allow me to eat off of my investment. 63 and in bonds- not good either. thanks for your article

  • 10-Year TIPS: An Investor's Benchmark [View article]
    come on! If you dont eat ,dont drive, and dont have medical insurance or expense, it will still cost you more than 1.7 % to live over the next ten years. I budgeted 10 % with the above expenses and since 1999 I'm close to being right on. my health insurance alone has gone from $3500 a year to $12000 a year. A good retirement is a second job!
