Kevin M:Your tale of Canadian "poverty" on an income of $50,000 per year
reminds me of something I experienced recently. The dropping of
interest rates here in the States dipped bank savings account
interest to as low as one-half of one percent INTEREST. After receiving a cash settlement a few years back for my being
infected with HIV along with the other 10,000 men with
HEMOPHILIA here in America --- at one point I found myself with
exactly $50,000 left in my account --- the same amount you
referred to in your message.The amount that $50,000 earned me in monthly interest was
precisely $100.00 --- that's it --- one hundred dollars!!!!The days when having $50,000 mean something ARE OVER!The global elite, mind you, continue to make money BOTH when
the market is going up AND when it is going down. It is their
dishonesty that continues to bring home someone else's bacon ---
irregardless of market kinetics. If I wanted to be a backstabbing sonofabitch, I could have been
FILTHY RICH. But, because I chose to be led by my morals instead
of my thirst for ever greater amounts of money --- I earned one
hundred bucks a month for my troubles.But, at least I can sleep at night . . . KDB = Buffalo, NY USA
