Forget Vegas. The real gamblers are on Wall Street. Or is that Omaha?

Interesting note, I read an article in Fortune last year that Soros and the Rothschilds have been going nuts buying up farmland all over the world, I assume in anticipaion of hyperinflation. There are now farmland funds that just buy up farms, and rent or sharecrop them out.

Welcome to the new feudalism.

Chances are that Buffet had some protective puts in place.

Now why didn’t he just GIVE that money to me . . . I could have stimulated a lot of businesses and helped a lot of out of work people.

I don’t feel sorry for any of them. But I do pray that Soros loses ALL his money and becomes “cardboard hut poor” in the near future.

Don't worry, he'll be "engraved mahogany box" poor before long.
