    Of course, I would have to learn to sail first.....

    Dude. go for it.

    Seriously. I was raised by my father, but my mother spent her life sailing around the world. From the times I was able to spend with her on her boat....im already convinced its the way to live. All in due time....ill have my boat.

    Funny thing is I almost dropped everything for a piecer I found in Trinidad once, but I decided against it for some reason.

    What is a better ocupation than "adventurer"

    edit: I remember now, it was the prospect of dying at sea due to a ****ty boat.

    I am actually thinking of moving to Costa Rica just west of Puerta Limon. It will have me right on the edge of untamed jungle, and a bustling port town where I could doc my boat.

    As soon as my Futures trading account is the appropriate size, I am going.

    One cool thing, in Cost Rica, if I make my money outside of the country, I owe NO taxes. Since my primary income will probably be trading the US Futures markets, I would enjoy tax free living.

    LOL! the whole Caribbean sea/central America are is covered by satalite internet, so I could sail the sea and still Post!!

    well the reset for the sub-prime mortgage gaff in the usa, but bottom out? i doubt it.

    you have to realize though that you live in an apocalyptic believing society and hence the ease of alarmist bulletins.

    I'd enjoy sailing around in the Caribean (sp?). Then I could be a pirate and go around saying "arrrgghhh" all the time and walk around with a limp and an eye patch and no one would look at me funny like the way they do now.

    not true, you will be liable for income tax in the US, whether you live there or not. unless you renounce your citizenship.

    unless you elect Ron Paul

    I just had to say it but RD that website you posted managed to succesfully **** me off. Lots of ignorance and racism.

    *EDIT: Ron Paul's been sounding better and better lately.

    Too bad he wont get the republican vote.

    I was similarly ****ed off as well. It's a weird site, with some really cool stuff (Like the old school technologies DVDs), but much of it is really wacked out stuff.

    Google Survival, Wilderness Survival, Survival Gear, Survival Skills etc... and you will find a bunch of weird sites like that.

    All I'm looking for is books DVD's on Primitive living skills, not all this wacked out fringe sh1t.

    An economy is what makes a little into a lot.

    You manufacture, do the value added shuffle, i.e. make dirt into iron, iron into steel, steel into cars, etc.

    You speculate, i.e. buy low, sell high. Labour, commodities, etc.

    You invent, i.e. create something from nothing, i.e. software.

    Economies are the property of the nation, they feed the people, provide lifestlye, and challenge the mind. You get reward based upon effort.

    It may collapse for people who have an unfair advantage due to monopoly, collusion or other *******isation of the market (unfair influence in government, cronyism, etc), and lifestyles may suffer, but I don't see mankind going back to campfires, spears and caves...

    Energy cartel fails, due to peak oil and peak consumer tollerance.

    How many more millions of jobs come from re-fitting the homes of 250 million consumers. Talk about a redistribution of resources.
