Great game.

Government isn't the solution to the bad economy, it is the
problem.

Did you see how Boston handled it with class, while the canucks
rioted
and looted their city?

Bunch of classless, sore losers.

Agreed. Surrey/Vancouver has too many unruly delinquents. I was
considering once to move there but after noticing the punk crowds
and
vandalism dares decided it wasn't for me.

Boston put on a good game, their goalie was brilliant.

If I had to live in Boston or Vancouver, I would pick Boston in a
heart
beat. I suspect it is a safer city all around.

Vancouver and Boston are both first-class, interesting cities.
You'd be
way out of your league in either.

Well, they DID kick him out of the USA........


For moral reasons?


I left for monetary reasons as in better investments elsewhere. Was a
good move too. Converted a lots of USDs to CAD at .7 to 1 in 2004 and
now is near 1:1, just that is a 30% tax free gain. Next, I put the money
to work and quite literally tripled it (and paid lots of taxes) to
Canada.

And my investment club buddies and I agree, US was on an apex in 2004.
So I massively reduced my US holdings in the then and subsequent years
so I didn't get the full brunt of the 2008 carnage.

Like they say, you have to know when to buy, but just as important when
to say good-bye.

Meanwhile you leftie sheep were stuck with it. Like stunned deer looking
at Burlington Northern coming right at them and not even a flinch. Take
Bernanke admitting he didn't see it coming, what a ostrich brain. Does
not Bernanke, Obama have decent economists on staff? Or did th hire the
losers because they were democrats?

Hell, while democrats were panicking and selling me and my buddies were
discussing where the bottom was to buy in.

Hey, investing is much like chess. Be prepared to move to win.



I've been out of the stock market for a long time. I consider the
stock market a fraud, and no more an opportunity for thoughtful
investment than a horse race, except horse racing is more honest, more
fun and more sporting. I now own stock in only one company and I
bought that on a personal whim. Most of my retirement income and net
worth is tied up in a very successful shopping mall I own with two
partners, both high school buddies, one a lawyer and the other a CPA.



I'm sure your union's pension is invested in amazing funds, eh?
