My two cents-Thank you Okie and all the people who contribute Intel

With several graduate degrees in economics and finance I know how the global economics work how it changes and how out of touch it can seem for so many people who are hurting and needing financial help.

I work for overseas firms. I know being a messenger myself in the business world that decisions change rapidly. I have often been the messenger that has to deliver the news of a delay in a business decision. Often I take the brunt of the anger and frustration of another delay. Even with my experience I often get trapped by the veracity of the information I am given thinking this is good and I can share it with my superiors. But often it has been just the opposite. The reason is the volatility of the markets. I am not suggesting this is what is taking place with the RV of the Iraqi Dinar but what I am suggesting is that there are a myriad of things that happen that can and will have an impact on our investments.

I want to thank Okie and this board and anyone who contributes intel. I know how difficult and time consuming this is. I also can relate to the bashing you receive. I for one appreciate all that you do.

Stay strong Okie stay strong.
