			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>1. The US has made a new weapon that destroys people but keeps the building standing. It&#8217;s called the stock market</p>
<p>2. Do you have any idea how cheap stocks are? Wall Street is now being called Wall Mart Street</p>
<p>3. The difference between a pigeon and a London investment banker. The pigeon can still make a deposit on a BMW.</p>
<p>4. What&#8217;s the difference between a guy who lost everything in Las Vegas and an investment banker? A tie!</p>
<p>5. The problem with investment bank balance sheet is that on the left side nothing&#8217;s right and on the right side nothing&#8217;s left.</p>
<p>6. I want to warn people from Nigeria who might be watching our show, if you get any emails from Washington asking for money, it&#8217;s a scam. Don&#8217;t fall for it</p>
<p>7. Bush was asked about the credit crunch. He said it was his favorite candy bar</p>
<p>8. The rescue bill was about 450 pages. President Bush&#8217;s copy is even thicker. They had to include pictures</p>
<p>9. President Bush&#8217;s response was to meet some small business owners in San Antonio last week. The small business owners are General Motors, General Electric and Century 21</p>
<p>10. What worries me most about the credit crunch is that if one of my cheques is returned stamped &#8216;insufficient funds&#8217;, I won&#8217;t know whether that refers to mine or the bank&#8217;s.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Ponzi scheme</strong>: An investment scam that appears to be actually paying high returns by paying the supposed returns out of the investors&#8217; own capital.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">the reason I post about this is a result of knowing about the great scheme that was pulled off by hedge fund manager Bernard Madoff. for more information about this story go to <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com" target="_blank">&lt;bloomberg&gt;</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The guy for roughly 20 years kept showing awesome returns by showing high returns through paying investors with other investors money, costing investors an expected amount of more than $50 billion!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-958" title="n_mw_wallstarrest_1213z" src="http://ma6aba.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/n_mw_wallstarrest_1213z.jpg" alt="n_mw_wallstarrest_1213z" width="322" height="259" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Really this industry is full of shit.. I can&#8217;t believe im stepping in it just as the hell broke loose ! but what can I say.. I love trading.</p>
