Market hits new all-time high. Alibaba IPO is a can’t miss. The new iPhone 6 will change the world. Jobs are plentiful. Home prices are rising. Household net worth is at a new all-time high. Grandma Yellen has firm control over the economy and our financial markets. The vaunted American military are going to defeat those dastardly ISIS terrorists in Iraq and Syria. The shale oil boom is going to make us energy independent. The world is our oyster. What could possibly go wrong?
I just took a $100,000 loan against my house and I’m investing it all in Alibaba stock. It’s a can’t miss opportunity of a lifetime. No downside.
I bought two condoms six months ago. I was overconfident.
I’m going to invest half my money in Book-Face and the other half in Ali-Babble after I sell my precious metals and firearms.
@Andrew
Have you seen the price history of facecrack lately?
Does it matter?
Book-Face is worth more than any precious metal, be it blued, parkerized, gold, silver, or lead…and this Ali-Babbling thing is sure to be worth more than even that is.
The sarcasm indicator wasn’t clicked for the above comment or this one, I apologize.
