You people ain't getting the message


ALL RETITREMENT INVESTMENT SCHEMES will be in big trouble not just SS


The money ain't in the banks in some vault

It is all FUNNY MONEY based on an expanding population whether a lot more are putting in than taking out including the Stock Market
Hint once retired people don't buy stock for a retirement investment they use what they have in stocks to eat and who is going to buy those stocks that must be sold so they can get their $$$ out

Same goes for CDS etc
Banks don't have that money in some vault
They have a minimal amount available the rest is loaned out
And where is it coming from when the retirees need their CDs for retirement living and more are taking out than are putting in to replenish the funds

How do you think they can pay interest and dividends etc etc and where do you think that $$$$ is

We ain't on no Gold Standard we are not even on a paper dollar bill standard
We are on a BYTE standard wher all you money is a computer entry someplace

I think most of us know --- we saw what happened to our 401K plans recently--- we were putting into accounts that were showing less and less value. The answer is pretty simple --- plan to go on working --- it's better for you anyhow.
