I love that article from on the CME saying we need a clearing house. What the hell are they there for?! They are supposed to be the backstop when customers lose there funds when this kind of stuff happens and yet the clearly choose to punt when MF Global went under. Why? Well if they know that most CFM’s are going this, they don't have anywhere near enough cash on hand to make the private account whole hence they have no choice by to punt and at the same time keep there mouth shut to avoid causing a collapse in confidence. O....., wait, it's happening anyway.

Unless they knew the collateral that they where putting up was coming from segregated accounts. I don't know what the facts are in this case but, in MF Global’s they did know. Also there is a special bankruptcy chapter for CFM’s where the clients are placed ahead of the line and the creditors take a back seat. I remember her talking about this before hand when MF Global first bit the dust.

No offense, but there were FReepers as serious sounding as you guys telling me to gather cash and guns for the 2000 Armageddon when the entire system crashes.

I need to know how serious this is.

If one wants to go that route, I would seek legal advice...

But then there are many crooked lawyers and it's letting more people in on what you have and where it is.

Why do you have a spare tire, home and life insurance? It's not like you really need them today or even next week. Have you even needed any of those since the 2000 Armageddon?

Metals won’t put a roof over your head, or feed you. And if Gold goes down 50%? It has done worse than that in the early 1980’s
