3. I think that the money is all going to Dubai!
I just saw a slide show that is out of this World. No wonder Haliburton pulled up stakes.

I imagine that the United States is providing the security for this Shangrila! Probably a secure home for the World's rich and powerful when the revolution starts.

6. Not to mention our home equity
which has slipped below 50% for the first time since 1945. Our debt has exceeded our equity, in other words.

10. My husband just instructed our money guy
to sell all his IRA stock and put it into some kind of fund earning 3% or something until things shake out. We've lost tens of thousands of dollars since January. As a retiree, he couldn't take it anymore.
