Then again some just do not wish to learn, apropos this lot.

"Geelong investors millions at risk

22Apr08

MUM and dad investors fear they have lost millions of dollars after share trader Chartwell Enterprises yesterday ceased trading.

Some had invested their life savings with the promise of returns as high as 70 per cent, depending on their contribution, according to documents seen by this newspaper.

Blah, blah, blah

One family, with about $5.7 million tied up in Chartwell, cried when they realised they may have lost the life savings of three generations.

"It's me, my mother, my daughter, our whole life savings are gone," the distraught investor cried.

"I'm 61 years old, I've lost everything.

"My accountant and my solicitor told me not to, but still I did it."

The family said they faced losing their homes because they had taken out mortgages to invest with Chartwell Enterprises after being offered returns of up to 70 per cent."

Doh!

2008 - No cell phone, I think I'd prefer to die.
2000 - No computer, yes I'm finished.
1990 - No video, life can't function properly.
1980 - No colour TV isn't poverty.
1970 - No car, everyone needs a car these days.
1960 - No motorbike, surely near everyones got one.
1955 - No transport, plenty of buses, not needed.
1950 - No telephone, only need one in the outback.
1945 - No radio, the only extra you need.
1935 - No bike, then you've got to get one.
"No phone, no computer, no video, no TV, no car, no motorbike, no transport, no telephone, no radio and no bike. Probably you haven't missed much - only a stressful life."

On that fatefull day when everyone is dead, the Universe will continue to expand for ever, but will we know anything about it, and does that matter anyway??

Doh!

i mean- u pay both tha accountant and solictor just to make a apointment so why would u go against them-

in my eyes they get what lies they are fed and stiff luck-

anyone thinking a big return like the above statement needs to see a doctor-its all a gamble-

would got a better return at ing for a 180 day term-

They say all this water is wasted when they wash the coal. Surely it doesn't evaporate, and therefore, returns to the water table, well most of it.

Near all know that, 2 + 2 = 4.
However, the problem is in the twos.
Most accept the two and see the four as correct.
The young and very old think or accept the information they are given that makes up the twos.
Like the workman who checks the loft and comes down with a soaking wet towel and says, your roof leaks and needs repairs = 2.
The cost will be $5,000 = 2.
You allow the work at the price and pay $5,000 = 4.

After reading a lot of threads lately I have had one thought going through my head , one I was told many years ago.

"The cheapest way to get experience is to use the experience of others"

The investment ship is about to sail get aboard and have a great adventure.
