I know enough not to invest in the stock market these days. BTW, my dad survived the '29 crash and is still around to talk about it. That crash was long planned to create the socialist/communist New Deal Policy which was what got us all under the social security fraud and all these other worthless welfare programs which have ultimately brought the standard of American living down. I know history a little deeper than the crap they taught us in college. Do you think they teach students anything about investing in the stock market or something practical? Hell no...they teach us to be dependant good little commies.
BTW, the next crash is just around the corner. Hope you're prepared.
Nope, you most assuredly do NOT know American / Market history at all. There isn't a shred of evidence, to support your ridiculous claims. The truth is, that '29 was a bubble; just as the latest " tech bubble " was and collapsed. It was almost " saved "; however, Joe Kennedy and his short selling buddies foiled it; slightly. The facts are, that the Market WAS revived and didn't go into a tailspin, until years later. Guess that you never heard of Smoot -Halley and all of the other little government disasters, that were supposed to " fix ": things, but only made things very much worse. Gee, even the invention of the SEC, didn't " catch the crooks ", since FDR made dear old Joe Kennedy the head of it.
Was your father a broker, in '29, or just a greedy gus, who bought on margin, dear ? Just because he weathered THAT particular storm, doesn't mean that he is an " expert ". :-)
