Bill “Ted Baxter” OReilly said last night his last 5 years of saving and investing was totallly wiped out in the past 2 weeks-

that’s why he is no longer being pithy

Yeah. He had some jaw-dropping statements last night. I remember something like, "something can lose 5-years' value in one week? How is that right?" Uh, it's the stock market, Bill. Sheesh. This is populism at its worst. Somebody get Bill a copy of Milton Friedman's "Free to Choose."

You mean a smart man like him put all his money in one type of investment? Surely he is rich enough to invest in some other form, such as real estate or some other entity?
