    I lost over $70k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Natalie Strayer

    How can big, major banks show so much profits when they have $600+ billion (B) in "unrealized losses" on their books from their losses from their long term bond portfolios and now non-preforming mortgage? How does the FDIC advise the banks to treat these bond losses? Are the bonds assets and valued at purchased price until they mature in 10-20 years?

      People dont understand that the prices of things are never going back down. This inflation is deeper than we think. Those buying groceries are well aware that the real inflation is much over 10%. The increments dont match our income, yet certain investors still earn over $365,000 in stocks and assets. Wish I could accomplish that.
