Replying to: dewey (Oct 21, 2008 12:34 pm) I still believe that we will look back on this time as a great buying opportunity for stocks or other assets. At least that is how I am rationalizing my recent buys that look crazy to my wife. I still belive that they are better investments than the two new cars that I got this year, although I love them I can measure the depriciation daily.  Oh well, life is short we must enjoy ourselves.

Replying to: tagman (Oct 21, 2008 11:41 am)  If speed limits become abolished here, I will be first in line to obtain BMW's wonderful award-winning twin turbo engine. I'm not holding my breath. A good question is why does BMW bother importing the 135i, 335i and 550i to these shores. Most folks don't have track access, so what's the point? Yes. The next BMW will have to be a 328i or 128i. I'm leaning toward the latter. The more impractical, the better. Plenty of fun available from BMW's terrific inline 6.

Yesterday's Financial Times reports that the difference between an investment banker and a pigeon is that a pigeon can still make a deposit on a Maserati. Nice. |

Replying to: cdnpinhead (Oct 21, 2008 4:40 pm) LOL. Last I checked on my ballot, there were no Socialists running for office. If you are referring to the recent suggestion that restoring the additional 3% tax to the upper bracket affecting the wealthiest 5% of Americans (which includes myself, I must admit) is somehow a Socialist idea, then George Bush Sr. was also a Socialist in addition to being a liar, because he raised our taxes, even after he said "Read my lips, no new taxes". But, taxes have been a part of our democracy for a long time, and they have been adjusted many times. Every time they were adjusted, some "wealth was redistributed", and that didn't make everyone in our government a bunch of "Socialists". Steve, I sure hope you aren't buying into that "Socialist" BS. I would much rather pay a little extra tax increase on some large income, than pay a little less tax on small income, due to a slow economy. And, after owning my business for over 25 years, I am absolutely positive that we are in an economic slowdown, in additioin to other economic challenges, in case you haven't noticed. Putting more money in the hands of the middle class consumer will cause more spending, which is what fuels the American economic engine, and ultimately makes the rest of us richer. That isn't Socialism... that's good old American capitalism at its best. God, I love this country!  TM
