What the hell ?! Nearly 10% ?! How can it be?! World wide, it seems to be around 4% since 2004.

It is easy to keep your head above water level for surprisingly long times. Just look how some people in retail manage to rack up credit card and other type of debt.

And it is especially so when money given is not their own, but instead they get to take cut. Which these funds can do. They might even just take promises that you will pay in future and even allow adding the interest on top of loan amount. Numbers look good, bonuses look good.

Fundamentally this can only last so long and now is the time it starts to blow up.

		Yea the market will correct any time now from 2009. Things will stay the way they are for as long as people want them to. The economy and money is fundamentally made up. It’s so funny when these types come out and start talking about made up fundamentals as if they are physics.
