Here are my thoughts....
Listening to Bill Clinton on Letterman this evening, hearing him talk about the volitale markets and all and how Obama will be good for the markets.
Even though I may get shot down for this, I am a registered Republican and I have NOT played the markets. I have investments in "safe" markets that have not been effected by this turmoil which has afforded me to purchase a home in which I will be closing October 31 and can afford to take the house down to the studs to refurbish.
My parents, devout Republicans, taught me to take it slow and easy, and taught me to take a breath in the 80's not to worry about the recession-istic affects without accessing what you have, have now taught me that in this volitile market, the perfect strategy to purchase cheap, refurbish cheaper and reap the rewards.
What I have learned? Remain conservative and sit back before reacting to the market strategies and hang with what I know. I think that it is quite obvious of the choice...unless you are a risk-taker.
You make the decision...but I feel this one is obvious folks!

Question: How do you get involved with the market? I know this older gentleman telling my friend and me that we need to invest in something. I have no clue how to do that. Besides, I can't afford to put something down in the first place. But then, I hear people make good investments...I'm so confused.

Obama will be horrible for OUR markets. Just like Clinton was. Clinton is a member in the Bildiberg group that pretty much pulls the strings around here. They are pushing for globalization.

Anyway, i could get into specifics on how Obamas plans will do more harm than good, but i REALLY am starting to sound like a broken record here. Look at the cause to the economic mess. And dont get the info from mainstream media because most of it is owned.

But here this. It's proven that congress pushing for a North American Union. It was exposed a while back by several congressmen. Even made it to Lou Dobbs on CNN. but anyway...

If our economy keeps going this route, than our dollar will become increasingly less valuable. When THAT goes too far what will happen is the World will declare another base currency deeming ours unimportant. Next, MAJOR eceonomic callapse. Then the government, pretending to be the good guys once again in an effort to help us will for a Union with Mexico for cheap labor, and Canada for the resources. Militaries will be combined and there will be a court that overrides our own. Laws will be combined and we will have ONE currency called the amero. This effort will be to get our economy back together.

The plans for combined laws, courts, currency, and militaries were exposed about a year or two ago...

Ok, now as i said earlier, i am not going to get into detail about how Obama's plans push us into this catagory just like McCains. Although i do think Obama's plans will do it just a bit quicker...

Hint: look at Obama's policies and think about the CAUSE of our problems...

I believe Obama will be better on the hope and faith of this country in this country and that will help this economy.

BTW this is a very wise market philosophy. Slow, and methodical. Think before you leap. Panic causes stocks to plummet...

Maybe....but he is just stringing us along. If we keep falling for people like him our country is lost. And probably within our lifetime...
