If you want safe and easy to understand, buy a CD.

LOL, when you said that I thought you meant an audio CD, which actually would also be a valid statement.

If the suits at Wall St. are actually flummoxed that the masses are a bunch of economic illiterates with a ‘gimme’ complex, I suggest they take a look out the window of their ivory tower.

It’s NOT actually ‘where only a few understand all the rules.’ The rules are that they want free stuff and they want someone else to pay for it. Invest accordingly.

Exactly the markets haven’t changed all the much; it’s just when people are losing money they try to find blame.
