Everyone says 4 dollars... I will throw my prediction in, I think we
will test 5 dollars a gallon before the end of the year.

I'll take that bet. I'll say that gas will be back at $2.34/gal by
the end of the year.

And oil will be down around $60/bl.

What do you base that on?

Fantasy what?

If I knew you, I would gave you 3:1 odds against and an $10,000 wager
you
are wrong.


Holy crap, I was just going to bet him and the loser has to answer the
drunken dougies questions for a week


For you and you only.

If oil doesn't drop to around - say plus 5/minus4 - $60 by the end of
the year, I will give you that boat I told you about a month or so
ago.

There - right out in public. :)


Good, but what is your basis of logic?

1/2 the oil harvested costs more than $60 barrel to get. So the only way it
could decrease is one of the following.

US government Fed/Congress admits the US currency isn't worth 2 pence to the
dollar and re-states the currency on a 4:1 or higher basis. Have to cover
the next expected 20% drop in the USD value.

Or all of a sudden more than 1/2 the worlds consumption is not there but the
supply chain is intact.

Neither aforementioned is likely, except the devaluation part. Bet by fall
$125 USD per barrel would be about even odds.
