Idiom: If it’s too good to be true, then the event is not to be believed or likely to be real.
Below is a list of stupid investment scams that I could think of at the moment:
Gold: Recently, the gold vendors and ‘NWO’ doomsayers are using this piece of metal to pull my hard earned cash (and pennies) away from basic necessities, like food (i.e. SPAM), clothing (i.e. dollars stores) and shelter (i.e. mortgage). Noone could do anything with this shiny yellow thing. It’s too heavy to carry and to prevent looters from taking it away, it’s best to bury it in the soil out in the back yard.
Dollar: It’s evil. It has magic symbols everywhere, from the one-eyed pyramid, to the omega symbol and a small owl, Moloch. It’s a piece of paper that the banksters like to book to their advantage. The decimal places mean nothing too because errors could be made and the oversight to trail the activity is almost non-existent. This is the current means of trade over barter system. And everyone likes to carry something light.
Real property: Get real! These are strips of ‘Native’ land, not even the true white brothers — the ‘Chinese’ — could dishonor the original owners. Again, land is nothing without its purpose of feeding and housing people. It’s funny how the poor and destitute cannot find affordable housing. But it works out for today’s generation, which is too lazy to lift an acrylic finger nail and get their pristine hands all dirty. So it’s all about buying and selling property to the higher bidding sucker in the hopes of reaping profit for paying down the property taxes for their next gig. It’s neat, huh?
Insurance: Since I am strapped for cash this holiday season, thanks to the banksters, I had the option of taking out a loan or surrendering the full value on my life insurance, which is a universal kind. It’s supposed to pay-off in fourteen years. I looked at my previous statement and it’s down almost by HALF! So this means whenever the stock market goes down, the value of this piece of shit goes down too. My principal value is nowhere. If I take it all out now, I loose over half of my hard earned pennies that I put in the first place!
A story over the airwaves from last night via ‘Kali’ was an old lady who paid $19.00 per month for over 40 years. When it came time for the family member(s) to claim the proceeds, there was only but $400.00. The old lady was buried in a pauper’s grave. I don’t know how people continue to fall for this scam. People die over life insurance, by the way.
401K: Deferring my fun for NOW means paying the price for LATER anyway. Basically since I didn’t want to loose my principal and didn’t like the volatility of the stock market then, I left nothing here. I needed cash, too, but I had to pay an extra 10% early withdrawal and on top of that I paid tax at the end of the year for this ‘income’! So the government gets their revenue from this form of taxation.
Stocks and bonds: I sold everything and paid the penalties and stupid taxes. I needed cash and that went to pay down their credit card debt to me: You damn banksters (from Nigeria, China, Japan, etc.) owe me! Anyway, it’s was lots of work to entering the dividends, interest and capital gains into my spreadsheet. So investing here was not worth having in my portfolio.
Charity: The fools will never stop hold out their grubby paws. Everywhere I see on television and hear on the airwaves how people are suffering and dying. Animals are also on the list of assistance. This goes to show that the whole planet is controlled by unloving kinds. So these forms of ‘chaos’ have been created to, once again, pull at the heart (or purse) strings of gullible people. To claim any tax deduction must be substantiated. But who has the guts to claim thousands of dollars on donations from cheap clothing, useless appliances and broken furniture?
So, there y’all have my rant again about my failures in life. For those employed in a full-time job with some benefits, quit complaining, you’re okay for now. I’m not. Even the temporary agency I signed up with is slowing down. The retail stores don’t like me because I’m ‘over qualified’. The county doesn’t like me because I’m not competitive enough. So while everyone else appears to be unscathed in this recession, noone will take care of me except to elderly souls here.
Life is too good to me: No responsibility, except two elderly couple, six parakeets, some plants and the birdbath full of water for the outdoor birds during the winter. I know it’s all complaining but this is my reality. The weather has been colder but great with some sunshine, especially yesterday when massive sylphs came out to greet us. I know next year should be better or else, ‘Pete’!
