Where are all these coming from??
When my system starts churning out this kinds of profit from the market, I can't help but contemplate "where did all these money come from??" It bizarre, I mean I work very hard when i was designing my system to cash in on these opportunities, but actually having those huge gains at hand just conflict with my mind about money.

Human's frail heart
I found this anonymous letter from the internet.
I am married to a veteran injured in Iraq. The last 3 years have been hell for us. His PTSD is getting the best of him, and I don't know how to handle it anymore. He does get help, which I am grateful for. But, the anger and mood swings are almost too much to take. We know lots of couples who have divorced since returning from Iraq, over smaller issues that we have faced. I have stuck it out because I took a vow to love him in sickness and health. And I feel like that is what this is, it is a sickness. I could not leave and feel good about myself. I feel like he needs me now more than he ever has in the 10 years we've been together. But, at the same time I know I'm not happy, and at times I'm scared. This isn't where I expected my life to be. I spent almost 18 months counting down the days until he would be home. I spent many nights crying myself to sleep with worry. I couldn't wait for him to be home again with me. And, now I feel like.... "Is this what I was waiting for?? Is this why I cried all those nights??" When he was hurt, I rushed to be by his side. He has several life changing injuries, and through it all I have been right by his side. I feel like I sacrificed a lot while he was away, and have gotten nothing in return. I know this sounds selfish, but it is honestly how I feel. His depression is so bad, that he doesn't even want to take a bath. No one else will help us, so it's all left to me. I'm tired of being the responsible one! I feel like if I leave he'll be homeless in a year, and I don't think he would care. I love him more than anything, but I think it is time to start taking care of me. I think I have to start coming first!

I can see why she is doing it. I can also see why that ex veteran is moody. It makes me wonder, if the people I love is causing a lot of inconvenience for me but at the same time they need me, would I stay and help them?? Would I love them and support them as I should even though they are giving me hell? I hope when the time comes I will have the character to do that. I am just thinking, God went through a lot of inconvenience for me while at the cross.

A sales person's crazy tactic
A church friend of mine in her 50s is a buisness woman, currently she is trying to promote a company she is partnering with(I found out latter). The company is trying to raise funds to start an ethanol producing oil palm plantation in indonesia. She approached me and started her pitch using classical salesman tactics...... This is the 1st time a well trained salesperson approach me with such a smooth speech. She was going on and on and on and on about why ethanol is the future, why this startup will be successful and all the good facts. Being a trader for a while when I analyze a money making system I will try to falsify my believes, meaning I will first try to prove that what I observe is wrong then if the system still looks good I will accept. Now this is supposedly a sales strategy that made me annoyed, it is, if the person ask questions you don't want to answer, interrupt him with a grandiose fact so that he will forget it and think about positive things....
The more she did that, the more the questions I want answer was burning in my head. She said something like this. Some esteemed credit rating agency from USA rated this company as very sound AAA, these are experts and we don't know how they do it but it must be true, then she said there is this financial company in NZ that is insuring this company from any lost. I then said, one of the reasons for the financial crises is that credit rating co that told lies, and financial institution going broke, do you think that is a problem? This is what she said, The chinese word for crises is "problem-opportunity" bla bla bla and on with how good this co is. SHE IS NOT GETTING TO MY POINT WHICH IS IMPORTANT!! she is annoyingly avoiding it! She then went on talking and talking about all the good things about the company. Slowly but surely I started wondering if she is intelligent, because if you ask me, I will try to find all the faults of the company before I consider the good parts. Every system have pros and cons, and she seems blind to the fact that she couldn't see any cons!
I finally ask why are you promoting this company whats in for you? she push it aside and ramble about the good things, finally I ask again after 30 mins, she did the same. Finally I interrupted her and said, you know what is your risk? you got many church members in to this, if this fails you might have enemies here. She kept quiet for a few seconds, she then push that aside and continue with her rambling. I stopped he again and say, I am not questioning your integrity, but can you tell me why do I feel you are trying so hard if there is nothing for you? She finally said this, Oh the company help us set up the office and the system...... ah I know now, she then went on rambling about DR who and who and experts that promotes this company..........
My mom told me that these are sales tactics that works. Work?!! are people that shallow to believe that? She could have won me if she came with more facts and a balanced view of pros and cons than quoting some experts I have never heard of. When I analyze trading patterns I start with trying to find evidences that the pattern is just random noises first.... after rigorously doing that then I will try to capitalize on it...... Trading have really taught me critical thinking.
Another thing, she said, many members here after hearing us will go back and pray about this, when they find peace they come back and invest a good portion. What do you mean go back and pray! and the condition to invest is if you find peace!!???? CMON! The right way is, they will go back and do THEIR OWN RESEARCH AND DO THEIR OWN THINKING, NOT FIND PEACE!!

I don't understand some people
I don't get some people. I would say about 50% of the population don't have the ability to think by judging and determining the outcome of their actions and control their emotions. When they get angry with someone/something many people will choose the "last resort" action. If you show aggression I will match it with my aggression, if you insult me I will sabotage your family/life/work etc. They don't think whether there are better ways to deal with the problem they will do what will satisfy their emotions and those actions are usually blown out of proportion followed by more bad results...... Man..... I don't get this bunch of people especially when they are way in their middle age. You have live life for so long and you still react like a typical 5 year old would at something unfavorable. haven't life teach you something so far? No? *sigh*
Only 5 year old will react violently at something unfavorable like putting on a feat or hitting the other boy. But then you do get adults that do stuff like that and react like a 5 year old. Holy cow..... I don't understand them. Some people are soooo dumb to the point that even after you explain to them why so and so will produce results you don't want, they still won't consider because doing so and so doesn't settle their angry heart on the spot..... *sigh* *sigh* we only have so long to live, why not live to get something useful done on earth before we die than oh I am going to confront him tomorrow to fight because he pisses me off and no I don't want to consider any other option or think of consequences because I will still be mad. I mean I am just thinking, do you honestly have a normal functioning brain or is this all an act to watch me being fooled by some people acting dumb...... I just, omg I just don't get some people. It hurts especially when it involves people I know intimately.

Truth about New Zealand
These are my observation of New Zealand. I love New Zealand, I spend a good part of my life there, I finish Hi-school there and graduated from Auckland Uni. I worked in Australia/New Zealand for a good 2 years.
From the outside, NZ seems like a prosperous country, laid back and relaxed. But truth be told, New Zealand is in terrible debt which stands at 21.2% of its entire GDP!! The reason? The National party led by Robert Muldoon in the 1980s borrowed a large sum of foreign capital to buy assets that did nothing to improve the condition of NZ. To this day NZ is still in debt with a trade deficit as big as 8-9% of its GDP! The NZ government have refuse any audit on the outcome of foreign capital borrowing.
From all that in order to sustain a relatively high living standard New Zealand have been selling its assets to foreigners(big ones). For starters all their banks accept for 1(kiwi bank) have been sold to foreigners, do you know the implication of a country that is under the mercy of foreigners that own her banks? Even so there are talks about selling Kiwi bank, their only national bank! A recent study have shown that NZ productivity level relative to her population is the 3rd lowest in the OECD. So to sum it up, NZ is in a hole, big debts, large trade deficit, highly unproductive population(3rd lowest in the OECD) and relying on selling their assets to sustain their living standards. What have this result into? Ridiculously high taxes, increasing trade deficit due to money being siphon out to foreigners that own their assets and New Zealand being at the mercy of their offshore asset masters. Just to name a few.
Do you think all these are by coincidence? Do you know what Alan Bolard their fed chairman said? "A return to that borrow-and-spend behaviour before household debt has been reduced to more prudent levels is a clear risk, Bollard warns, and a threat to a sustained recovery."
He is basically saying, we need to spend more and save less to get us out of the recession. He says this knowing that NZ is in a dire situation.... You don't spend your way out of recession, you produce your way out of it. Having NZ spending will put them deeper into a debt hole. NZ leaders know what they are doing to NZ they ain't dumb, judging from their actions they are purposefully running NZ into a crisis somewhat like Ireland. It is the same thing American politicians are doing to their country, running their country into an abyss. For what reason? The rabbit hole is deep..... I will explain it another day.

Wall Street Banksters and Washington
I saw this online, The vice president of America Joe Biden said "We Have to Go Spend Money to Keep From Going Bankrupt" That is the dumbest statement i have ever heard.... When you are in recession or a depression like what America is in now you don't SPEND your way out of the depression..... You produce your way out. You produce goods that other countries need and that will get you out of a recession, you don't print money out of nothing! You'll end up like Zimbabwe. this is not economics 101 anymore, this is economics for dummies.
