I was watching "The Big Short" a movie about the housing crash - love it recommended to all.

Two young guys had a hedge fund - Brownhill Capital - and they made a fortune betting on bad things happening.

People do not like to think about bad things happening so they made their bets with options - when they were wrong they were wrong small - when they were right they were right big.

People do not like to think about bad things happening.

A Flu Pandemic - we had one and there are 2 more on the way - no question - people hate to think about that.

Just north of where I am China and Russia have warships firing live rounds and the rest of Asia is hopping mad and a war could break out at any time in the South China Sea.

People here just smile and laugh and say it will never happen.

People hate reality.

Most in here are realists and know its best to have it and not need it that need it and not have it.

Cheers to all. We are kindred spirits.
And Hell followed with him
