Business or otherwise.
And let me tell you - it sure ain't "the inside" I want to be in.
Joe Weisenthal should be fired from http://www.businessinsider.com/
and go watch a good show on Internet TV or read a well-investigated business issue at such websites as (omigawd, surprise!) http://www.rt.com/ Max Keiser Report then go to the librarian Alex Jones at http://www.infowars.com/ and round it off with a world business overview at http://www.thedailybell.com/ and http://www.theinternationalforecaster.com/
Watch and listen to his stammering ineptitude when answering poignant questions from financial "Crash JP Morgan" warrior Max Keiser on:
http://www.rt.com/ - Keiser Report #189.
I don't really know what to say in response. I want to be kind. Honest, I do. Here I am searching for a safe haven for my finances and I check BI every so often and then this -
Again. I'm speechless. Confused -
with worry over everything he's reported in the past,, and may in the future having convinced his readers with repetition that they know (they must - they are afterall called "The Business Insider" [a box I want to think outside of, that's for sure]).
I am so tempted to comment in a really nasty way because of the damage he has most likely done (maybe he doaesn't realize ir - so convinced of his own worldview [again - I don't know]) - so I won't nasty other than to say I have never been so embarassed for a person since the time I was five years old watching that episode of "I Love Lucy" where Lucy took a job at a chocolate factory - anybody remember it?
A comic masterpiece.
Before shift was over Lucy found herself stuffing her face with delicious dark brown bon bons after the conveyor belt she was workin' at got way out of her control (something akin to - well, the S&P for example).
Talk about a belly laugh. Not very often I laugh that deeply anymore. Not much lately to laugh about. Maybe too much to laugh about. Hard to make a decision. (Like making a bee-line for the eatery that has the proverbial menu with too many items on it. Should have never gone to dinner starvin' to death in the first place - especially when I'm payin' - You payin', Joe?).
Anyway -
Joe, you got some 'splainin' to do (especially to your subscribers paying good money for your analysis).
If you in the paper-bug market are listening to this guy - well, may the Great Creator of Mother Earth's Gold and Silver help you.
Joe, give it up.
Go eat candy-turtles on a beach somewhere with the fiat dollars you've ripped people off for by offering that kind of advice - analysis - reporting - fiction? It's all suspect now. (Even I know that and I've only come out of the "dream closet" called "democracy" - 9 months ago!).
So go wash those sweet slow candy-reptiles (including the green-inky worthless paper [hopefully peppermint flavoured) with a triple chocolate "Lucy" martini.
Or ten triple chocolate Lucys.
(And maybe, just maybe, that sickening mixture might help you feel better about your mini-made-off).
Note: I do commend you for even TAKING UP THE INVITE to let Max interview you - face to face.
Takes guts (In your case - lots of guts).
(Note to my readers - sorry for commenting in such a way. I know I promised not to. But it's so hard in this case).
If you still haven't watched this now business-infamous interview by "Mad" Max and you care about your current and future financial wealth go to:
http://www.rt.com/
Keiser Report episode #189
and watch it now
- then if you subscribe to BI - cancel it. And demand all your money back! The confusion it inspires is breathtaking, let alone investment-shrinking.
Then listen to Max! Everything makes sense (he may not know everything - but what he does he is clear on).
And he's HONEST (an honest little rascal too, which turns a very serious matter - like your life savings - somewhat humorous - good for letting off a little steam - and inspiring some informed choices you can bank on).
Then follow it up with episode #188 and let Ned Leyland Taylor explain how market manipulations are being accomplished using a technology and algorithims that rip off everyone! - on a global scale!! -in nanoseconds!!!
(Remeber that Richard Pryor movie "Brewsters Millions" where he worked for the banks and hit upon a way to essentially collect all the pennies floating around the banking industry - bagging him millions. Well Brewster should never have let the bankers know about it. They've perfected it).
Careful who you listen to when investing.
Buy silver and gold!

Maybe Jumpin' Jittery Joe's newsletter should be re-named - dubya dubya dubya dot businessinsider dot CON.
