This should be very interesting regarding pensions in this country. I don't think it's going to be a gradual decline, it's going to be like a light switch. One day we will wake up and their will be no more pension for millions of people...

I’m not worried. My Sears (S) stock will never lose value!

It has already begun as gradual.

The government will just print more money. Inflation will reduce the value. Very simple, but effective.

Are you specifically talking pensions, or are yku using that as a general umbrella term for all of the various retirement types of plans?

Because not that many people actually have true pension plans anymore. Way, way less than the percentages of people that used to have them.

To paraphrase a line from an Hemingway novel, this collapse will happen slowly, then all at once.

I would be calm about this if if Trump were in charge. But he is not. The United States is now being led by a potato. And the rest of the West is being led by irrational children.

Look out below!

‘“My message to the funds involved and all the firms is you’ve got three days left now,” Bailey just said on Tuesday.’

The good news is soon we’ll be able to buy AAA bonds that pay 8% and CDs that pay 10%.

Buy if you are holding assets that in any way depend upon the value of bonds already issued, you’re screwed and without recourse.

Very slowly at first, then quickly.

One day we are going to wake up and there will be no more money in your bank.

Everything is going to freeze up.

Have some cash on-hand! And pay down as much debt as possible right now.
