Hmmmm... I'm thinking about buying up the worlds inventory of toilet paper.

When push comes to shove, I'll have a ready supply of TP for the black market.

Yea, I'm just kidding!

Upside? Nothing in sight yet..

[Classic Finn]

Thats it Im investing in the Vienna Philharmonic:

Vienna Philharmonic 909.40 915.50 904.30 910.40 5.10

910.40 up 5.10...

Now thats a proper investment at this time..

Buy land in Belize. It's the only place to be!

Id trade this darkness of the Arctic to that anytime..

[mikeschn]

Hmmm... lets see... if we get 100 teardroppers to chip in, we could buy a piece of land large enough to house 100 camping sites. Then we just need to drive down to Belize with teardrop in tow... oops, some folks might need to take the big boat over!!!

Mike...

[Classic Finn]

Ok if I have this amount in stock.. I think I better get a heavier axle for the tear wouldnt ya say? Ok Belize boat or no boat Im on my way.


Darn that pic was big..

[mikeschn]

You could have picked a smaller picture to show off all your wife's gold!

Apologies, Im fixin it..

Ok now I think this is better..
Mike how much land could we be able to purchase with this? Would it be big enough for a few spots for the teardrops there in Belize?

[mikeschn]

I think they would cater to you just fine!



BTW, if you ever hit on a real solution to the problem for the individual (vs the govt), please let us know.
