It seems odd that you're highly concerned with what e-mail address I'm using for personal reasons and that has any implications on my own integrity or that of the firm I work for. My views published are my own only and do not have anything to do with where I work. On a sidenote, your wasted time to think of words like "besmirched" and "unabashedly" hasn't contributed anything to this author's discussion either.

Suffice to say, thank you for contacting me and I have deleted the file in question.


Oh wait, just kidding. Unlike certain other individuals, such as yourself, I have a sane and practical view of the world and do not deny to pirating a file here or there. Please delete all copyrighted, trademarked and protected programs, files, videos and songs off your computer before making public accusations... and you might want to send your message to Seth himself and another few millions people in the United States to tell them to delete all protected songs and files from their systems.

You're free to demand anything you want. So am I. I demand that you cease and desist sending comments like this, since they're frivolous and meaningless. Where should I send the bill for the consumed diskspace and bandwidth?

Thanks for your entertainment.

I've been following Seth Klarman on Gurufocus for quite some time and I really respect him as long-term focused investor. His book was really insightful too. If anybody wants it, I managed to snag a PDF of it about a year ago. Feel free to e-mail me at deskin@deloitte.ca if you want a copy!

buddhabill, I haven't heard too much about lack of quality, but I can definitely see how it fits into the different price points strategy. RL tries to sell a lot of lower price-point products while still having "value" to appeal to that market, and still excel in the high-end market with their RL Blue and RL Black Label lines. Don't know too many clothing retailers with that strategy.

Thanks for your comment. I definitely agree - the upcoming efforts in the Asian markets will definitely bring that sales growth you want to see in the next year. RL is one of the few stocks right now that is NOT at its 52 week high (about 20% lower) so there is room for profiting. It's just an iconic brand that gets that competitive advantage. Look out for RL in the near term!

Also, as a gamer during my entire life, I would find it VERY surprising if the OnLive idea actually succeeded. I'm an avid believer that the future generation of gaming is online with other players (much related to social media today, and is already here with XBox Live), but serious gamers really don't care about having, as you mentioned, "real estate" in their living room. If the system is worth it, like Ps3 or whatever comes out next, the graphics and speed will justify having the tower in their living room. Who cares that it's there? A majority of controllers nowadays are wireless anyway. The extent of problems (slow, huge controller, always need to be online) with an always on-line system will definitely not be worth it compared to the benefits (just not having the system there).

I was actually listening to a podcast today and apparently AIG (considerably toxic) is starting to get analyst coverage again today. How the heck is ANYBODY claiming that they understand what is going on in that company? Some people...

The raminifications of a declining dollar are actually huge. You captured it relatively well, but at the worst it could lead to a massive paradigm shift in the the world where US is no longer the controlling power it is today (and already declining). At the best, US is going to get a lot less bargaining power in the world and the dollar could even be pushed off the rails as the leading currency.

To answer your rhetorical question of what to do when nothign is left for a rainy day? .... unfortunately probably print more pennies... aka hyperinflation. But let's hope for the best that it doesn't turn out that way. Nothing is certain until it happens.

Regardless, Peter Schiff has been saying the same thing for a while now and I agree with his and Faber's Pov - the US racked up some SERIOUS debt and I just don't understand how one nation could be the debtor nation for longer than it's due... eventually the debt must shift to another nation in the world and that makes the US' role in the world quite diminished.
