(someone wrote me, asking for investment advice - LOL! This was back in 1999, when the market was flying high.)

My Advice:

Take all your money out of the market. The bubble is gonna come crashing down. Invest your capital directly into people and projects that you yourself have a say and can manage.

There are tens of thousands of small alternative businesses that need investment! Is greed your only motivation for investing? Then obviously you don't belong on this site. If you really care about more than money, then get involved personally, and use your money to help people, not companies. You might not get as much a financial return, but you'll feel way better about yourself.

When I realized that I was supporting the greed driven capitalist system, I took my money out of investments and put it into this website. I've never felt better (and I sleep a lot better, too)!

Suggested Reading

click for more info or to purchase!The New Nuclear Danger: George W. Bush's Military-Industrial Complex by Helen Caldicott

Helen Caldicott has been an anti-nuclear activist for decades. In her new book, she details the Pentagon's latest strategies for war and combating terrorism, and how these strategies are shaped by the needs of the Military/Industrial Complex and politicians, rather than the American people.

Especially frightening is how close we are to a nuclear holocaust at this time in history thanks to Bush's foreign policies, a revived nuclear weapons program and America's obsession with weapons of mass destruction.
