That way, once all the natural resources have been plundered, us white men will find that you CAN eat money. Also, if you take strategic bites out of it your money, you can make it into fun shapes, like a dinosaur! Which is why I've been thinking that maybe we should start printing money on fruit roll-ups.

Why? Because my gambling last year had a return of 60%, while my stock investments are somewhere around -30%. Also, gambling is more fun.

One of my old Cree elders reminded me of a Prophecy – when the last tree has been cut down, and the last river poisoned, and the grass is gone, then the white man shall learn
you can't eat gold

I'm beginning to think maybe we might see the fulfillment of that one before it all goes down the tubes.

And now if you'll excuse me I'm off to dance another slow round of the Apocalypse Waltz

After much angst and worry, I have closed my mutual funds and I'm funneling them into the lowest risk IRA I can find. No more rollercoasters, no more listening to Jonathan Pond and Suze Orman telling me to stay in for the long haul, saying what goes down must eventually come back up. If I lose it all (my particular investments lost 70% of value in six months) there will be nothing to go back up with, so I, like so many, have elected to be the problem and not the solution by trying to extract myself from stocks as much as possible.

I know that, judging from all the current economic indicators, I'll never be able to retire anyway, so it's better to just accept it and move on.
