I don't see some of these as being 'bubbles' but as being 'dominoes', like 3 and 5. or 3,4 and 8. Many of these things are interconnected and who knows which pebble's rolling will start the landslide.

#9 A Derivatives Crisis

Such a thing can't ever happen because:

1. Derivatives are bought and sold by the smartest guys on earth and they can be trusted to know what they are doing.

2. Whatever it is they're doing, don't dare call it speculation, you goldurn commie!

3. Even if there are some speculators (only a few, trust us) then there are an even number of them on either side of the trades so it'll all turn out OK in the wash, trust us.

4. Derivatives never ever led to a bubble. It's only when the government interferes that we have to worry.

5. And BTW, most of the derivatives are sold OTC so we don't even know how many there are out there and they say ignorance is bliss. And last time I checked bliss was a good thing.

Small market Pittsburgh Pirates vrs. small market Mariners in the World Series...and it only goes 4. Okay, okay so maybe it won’t be a massive threat!!

The consequences of delaying the needed invasion, occupation and denazification of Iran. When Iran and North Korea are ready to start launching on us, Russia and China might even join in the nuke-fest. Have fun. Enjoy the slide and following distopia.

[Godzilla]

not quite the way I would say it

1. Military strike on Iran breaks out into a regional war involing Syria, Israel, Hezzbulla, and US
2. Price of oil
3. Major West Coast earthquake
4. Drought in US
5. European debt crisis (not just Greece folks)
6. Other natural disasters in US (Hurricanes, tornados, etc)
7. Civil unrest associated with election campaign (OWS, Unions, rest of the demothugs)

The others are far outside the radar to really consider short term.

New Madrid fault megaquake destroys most of several river cities (St Louis and Memphis...) and causes significant damage for hundreds of miles around (Louisville, Cincinnati, Nashville), brings down all bridges carrying traffic and rail east-west through the middle of the country, blocks barge traffic on the Mississippi and much of the Ohio.

It will always be a threat to prepare for. Key is .... Be prepared to endure all such incidents as best one can.

What if is a valid consideration to guide such. But stick to the basics an simplified preparations that can be sustained with ease.

My opinion.

Stay Safe...

Sound like a “normal day at the office”, to me, K.

We’ve been living with many of those things for years, but now all of a sudden, they’re succintly-condensed, listed and many more are paying attention to “the list”.

I’m guessing that #7 refers to America?

#1 People actually try to understand what a national debt of 15 Trillion REALLY means.
