Spotlighting a deer is illegal in Ohio.  Although if Market Collapse 2.0 gets any worse, I'll be forced to show disregard for the laws set in place by the Ohio DNR in order to feed my family.  



Today I was forced to use generic steak sauce on my hamburgers because I was out of A1.  I could have driven to Krogers and gotten more, but I'm afraid of gasoline rationing.

It really must have hit the fan.  I kept hearing random  gun shots and explosions all night.   I don't know much more than that as I have learned right here on ARF that when the end of the world comes I get my rifle and my dog and get in the bathtub.

If this apocalypse gets any worse I'm going to stoop to buying my sportswear off the rack at TJ Maxx instead of from a proper outfitter. It'll hurt, but I can't be frivolous in the face of these hard times.



I really have come to respect the rugged individualism of my forefathers. I'm trying to show the same grit.




Is Chipotle open on the holiday weekend? I haven't tried the new tofu stuff.

I've heard the food shortage is so acute, people are grinding up pig offal and liquefying it, squirting it into plastic tubing, flash steaming it, and then cooking it over clay and sawdust compressed into "briquettes".  What's next, ersatz coffee?

This market isn't collapsing yet. When it does I will not sell, I will buy more and stay in.

I wouldn't waste my breath talking to the mocking fools in this thread.  It's as if the people with the condescending attitudes in here somehow didn't live through 2007-2009 -- it's amazing.

This Greece situation could easily end up being a Lehman 2.0 moment and then some.

It usually takes time to establish a market trend and we are likely at or near the top.  We'll know with some certainty in about 6 months or so after we've put in some lower highs and lower lows.

My bet is that the top is in.

Your username is hilarious when combined with your post.  I "lived through" the 2008 crash, I loved every fucking minute of it.  While the panicked morons were selling, selling, selling, I was buying, buying, buying.  The individual stocks and funds I bought then have performed superbly ever since.  I'd love to see another 40% drop, no shit, I would love it.

You want to see my portfolio and history?

I didn't buy at the absolute bottom, but I bought more stocks/funds in 2008 than I have in any year since.  I was deployed, just like I am now, and the normal annual limits on 401K type investments don't count when you are deployed.

We won't get a 40% drop from Greece, although I am perfectly positioned for it right now (unlike 2007).

However, while the world's attention is focused on Greece, it's a good time to look around and see what sleight of hand is happening elsewhere, like China.

I made money in the market during and as a result of that period. Sorry to disappoint, low post count doomer person. I'd be willing to bet I won't report a net loss on this year's taxes too.  Hell, I recently sent my Q2 payment, and it was depressingly large.

I have a nice chunk of cash ready to buy if there is a significant downturn.

The highschool looking stockboy said there was more in the back if we would like him to get it. We bought all they had all 39 cases of it. Peak Greek yogurt. The price will skyrocket and we will sell or trade it on eBay for other tangible supplies like gold, .22lr or bean soup, no paper money tho that shit won't be worth the ink and paper it's printed on.

Greece headlines will fade by midweek just like Ebola faded.

Markets will begin to focus on corporate earnings and further
takeovers.  


Oh did you know in Greece you can't buy pain releaf
medicine anywhere but a pharmacy?  If they're closed
and you need Advil, Tylenol your plumb out of luck.
Gas stations, grocery stores CANT sell it.   That there is
some real wisdom for you.   Oh did I mention 29%
unemployment rate.


If I were Prez of US,  I'd offer Greece to become the 51st state
and add their debt to ours.   We'd get a nice place to vacation without a
passport and they'd have an injection of Democracy!

DAY 4 of the Market Collapse 2.0

Worried about a bank run, I got $30k out in cash from the bank today.  Will it be enough to get me through the weekend?  I hope so, but there's no way to be sure.  Everything is so chaotic now.

Earlier today, my wife and I noticed a suspicious man in our back yard.  Was he here to break in and steal our precious wine, cheese and pate?  We were screwing the suppressors on our rifles and duct taping trauma plates to each other when we realized he was the landscaper we recently hired. Crisis averted ........ for now.  

If anyone is still alive out there, I hope my transmissions provide some solace.  Some of us are still fighting, and hope to rebuild the world eventually!

Stay strong!
