Jpy Yen
just as a heads up, if your going to buy anything now in japan do get ready for some price shocks and a very bumpy road with the YEN. Do ask before with the people your buying your parts from to guarantee your exchange rate, if not you could be in for a very big surprise.

once it hits 84 thats the open market rate that is not the price your paying unless you own a bank. its going to be sliding backwards, the cluster f of the meltdown isnt over its been rolled over to other countries. |

You cant really blame Obama...Shit thats going on with the economy was brought on by Bush Era policies.
Anyways, its been bouncing between 80-84 the last couple of weeks. I had a fucking boner when it hit 84.30 offbase while it was 83 on base. I pulled a couple grand and changed that shit quick. 2 days later and it was back down to 81. I cant wait to get the hell outta here...if shit goes down the shitter, I would hate to be here for it. Then again, the extra $1k is nice... |

I put on that z about 3k on hitting all of the back roads. As for Obamanomic's sadly, hes got a really nasty fight on his hands and just really approached things in the wrong way, meaning you have to go at it a little differently when dealing with politics, sure he wanted to deliver on promises but un-forseen problems etc, won't get into this here. really what needed to happen is get everyone back to work and approach healthcare in a totally different manner + also raise import tarriffs etc, fast track oil/shale programs across the usa / allow drilling in the gluf with out the cluster fuck of paperwork and costs involved, revise how the process is thought out and create a special task force in the military how to deal with oil spills and deep water etc, that is called getting people back to work and new job training. Phontom economics does not work nor taking a Hawaii vacations while people are loosing their homes, as many people voted for him they see their hero going on a vacation while going to hawaii and next, people are saying (WTF ) they are loosing their home beacause of preditory lenders ? Obamanomic's would have been a 2 term administration, if and very simply people who were screwed by A,R,M Mortgage's loans and credit cars were put back into their home, I mean how great that would have been, + also make the banks re-adjust the loan amounts to be paid off + take the commissions back from all of the realtors/loan brokers, and have counties and states lower property taxes etc so people can get back to work. the credit card reform is a joke, simply put what needed to happen so the usa does not find it self in this spot again, you want a credit card - ok you have to front a cash deposit and also credit cards need to allow some sort of insurance program that lets people write off their credit card amount owed and not have that sort of debt Nationalized to the public.

And that picture of the Z looks like it could be in a brochure lol |

A buddy of mine talked me into doing the same thing, only with Silver. I am very happy he did. We both (he invested much more aggressively than I did, to my regret) bought a few thousand dollars worth last July. When I looked today, its doing very well.
