I get a rush from the fact rich people will soon be realizing how the other half lives.

I'm getting more of a rush seeing oil below $60.00 a barrell.

I do have to admit that I'm secretly giggling about it.

You all must have an aggregate age of 12 and IQ of 5.

Yeah, it's great losing $200,000 when you have one in college and another one a junior in high school. I can't stop laughing.

I'm still a billion years from retirement, so its hard to get too upset about it - but still, I do have non-retirement investments that should be way in
the black by now. Its hard not to be peeved off about that, especially when I've got baby #2 kicking me constantly and reminding me of how broke I'll
be the next 5 years

Yeah, I will say that if I was old I would be upset.
I'm just happy that any stock bought now for pennies will definitely be worth 1,000,000 times that in a few years. Yay? |

It is kinda interesting to see the Nasdaq struggle to stay in the 8,000s every day.

As of right now I am completely unaffected by the market, other than the fact I have stopped buying things online in USD.
I'm young and spend every penny I earn. |

If my credit card goes belly up, do I still have to pay it?

yeah, my retirement was set for 7 years from now.
Now I'm planning my future as a walmart greeter in 2020. So maybe that is a little funny. Kimbob the Laughing on the Inside |

It is funny, but only while I have a decent paying job.
If I were to get laid off tomorrow and can't find a job quick enough to get to the point where I have to withdraw from any type of savings (which are in funds/stock market), then I'll cry. |

I guess it's exciting in some alternate reality where having more money is bad, like the Opposite Sketches on "You Can't Do That on
Television."

I'm scoping out the really good intersections right now. Franchises are available for panhandling and window wiping.

I'm sitting in a room filled with gold coins stacked to the ceiling with one single lantern and I am laughing maniacally right now. For I am ... Scrooge

All you young bastards better hope that your parents didn't just lose their retirement money - otherwise, guess who's moving into your spare bedroom?
