everyone likes to see the biggest toughest guy get beat up every once in a while. 
American bashing is a sport in most other parts of the world including Canada.
Not a sport that I like to be invoilved in.
Although there is a problem in American culture where people feel like they need to have things they cant afford just because some moron celebrity on Cribs has it.
In Canada, if you cant afford it, you dont have it. Or should I say CANT have it because of our banks lending policies.
My family is pretty wealthy but we drive our trucks for 10-15 years. We dont wear gold watches and stuff. We dont let our women go buy ridiculous clothes, put additions on the house, finance things, we look for good deals on steaks and buy the 2 liter pepsi because it is cheaper, etc, etc ,etc.
THe funny thing is, and I was talking to my girlfriend about this the other day, most people who arent rich think multi millionaires live these crazy lavish lifestyles. Well, I can tell you from my fathers way of life, not all people with money live like that. Most are quite the opposite. My dad has his car collection but he refuses to buy jeans anywhere but walmart, wont spend money on a decent steak and complains about a breafast costing more than 6 bucks (canadian
).
The best rich to be isnt possesion rich it is cash rich.

one more thing....
Russian women are HOT. Especially the strippers.
Whoever said they arent obviously didint have a very good tour guide. You arent supposed to ask the old lady wearing the baboushka making the cabbage rolls for a lap dance and then complain that she smells like garlic and vodka.

And seems Iīm quite spot on with certain people.
Back on subject. We will all sit and watch the massive deflation for the next year. KBB has started adjusting prices weekly instead of monthly due to the rate of decent on used car values. We will all wait for the drop to bottom out before buying. About the time it hits bottom in a year of so we will then see massive inflation and everyting will be too expensive. 2011-2012 we will see some normalcy in the economy. I am sitting here at my energy trading desk and what I see going on right this moment and whats coming up make me want to lean over and throw up in my garbage can. Homes down another 15-20%, cars 30-40% and boats 40-50%.
