    Sweet.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    I was just listening to Rush Linbaugh...

    He is reporting that the world wide economic crisis was caused by smart investors fear that Obama would get elected and continues today due to fear of what his policies will be.

    To be fair, I started blaming Bush a few months in. I also gave him a honeymoon in '04, though.

    Limbaugh is now an official national joke, as are the conservatives who are parrotting his ridiculous reasoning on the stock market. Does he know that the market basically crashed prior to the election? Does he understand that the tangible results of that 1st crash - companies failing, layoffs, loss of consumer confidence, etc. - are fueling the current downward trend?

    Fool.

    Stock never drops below it's worth, unless maybe the price drops below the dividend value.

    Stock is only worth what you can sell it for.

    Stock is only ever worth what you can get out of it.

    Yet, I could sell it for less than I could get for it. Amazingly I could sell it for less than it is worth. Thank you for playing.

    Sure you could, if you have two buyers and one is willing to pay less than the other and you sell it to the lower bidder, you have sold it for less than it was worth. Still it is only "worth" what you can get someone to pay for at any particular time.
