Where I used to do dog obedience a lady had Huskies that she raced.

I already have a site that I can get harnesses from, much easier to let the dogs run and get towed than try to run with them. :lol:

'Course the locals will think I'm mad but it should be fun. :D

It will be interesting to watch...
The disparity between the US rates and the Aussie rates
I think it will cause a further inflationary trend-investment oportunity via higher Aussie rates... come on Kev give us a break.
got to be a 1/4 tick in it!!

Got nothing to do with Kev.... the governement is powerless....

The game is played by the banks and globalised coporatations.... modern day pirates..... plundering the high seas.... (that sadly is us, these days).

IMHO.... every single bank CEO should be held accountable for fraud, conspiracy, price fixing, cartel behaviour, theft and treason.

Time to once again throw the "usuryers" (and usurpers) from the temple....

Does someone feel like commenting in a knowledgeable, comedic, cynical or other manner on Jerome Kerviel?
Or did I miss the discussion?

oh right.... no, don't know much about him at all!

I only heard the name of the bank he was with today. I was very thankful that it wasn't the one my cousin works for!

We have a frenchy trader that lost 7 billion euros last week, he is charged like mad by the director and he is saying that he didn't do it on personnel interest. Win or Die, really modern piracy!!!
Go for gold and land, they have increased of 30 % this year before the banks got bad.

word is he had a trading war chest of A$86Billion 70B euro that he traded for the bank Les.
I think he was doing margin lending and got a call, something like Um we need A$8,000,000,000 to top up your equity Sir!
Now I think the bank will sockit to him, making him the fall guy for all there woes...
Poor bugger, he prolly made them more than that over the years.
I have heard the margin lending volum in aussie is about $350billion
that is a lot of homes.

Qwik tip, aar (anglo australian resources) dropped to .06 2 day ago,at .07 now, Will go to at least .12 soon. Anglo are a exploration company (drilling etc) and will do well over the next 2-3 years. I personally will be dropping some coin on them as I know one of the directors of the company (My Boss).

If you have interest in ASX go to the web site and have a good look round, it may be worth your time :wink:
