Retirement doesn't sound like much fun anyway. I'm going to work as long as I'm able.

As a former lobbyist for the state teachers' union, the Wisconsin Education Association Council, Oradei knows a bit about how government works, and he wonders watching the scandals on Wall Street how financial markets will regain a sense of honesty.

What the hell is this idiot saying? He knows about government and therefore the market is screwed? I guess this financial moron never thought of going short equities, dollars, or long yens euros, oil and gold...what a numbskull...tough crap...learn about the market(S) or quit your bitching....There are piles of opportunity in the markets...pick the right one, the right issue and right direction and you can turn dirt in dollars...every single day of the week, and in some cases 24 hours a day

Shadup!

He is not optimistic that his investments will turn around anytime soon.

I am so sick of this line BS...who said they will if ever? Is this nitwit just gonna sit and watch his holdings wither away...if so he deserves to die penniless and poor...Its called a stop loss Moron...put it at 10% on every thing you enter...and don't think just act when its hit...your not smart enough to think...

I taught a rich friend of mine about stop losses and shorting 3 years ago...he has damn near doubled his account on the way down.....these bitching moaning complainers make me sick...

Thank you Alan Greenspan, thank you Federal Reserve Bank,
thank you government-caused inflation, thank you Democrats,
thank you Republicans, thank you regulations, thank you
taxes, thank you deficits. And most of all, thank you
politicians and all the fools who elected them.
