Are you SURE there there are other factors????I am pretty sure this kid knows what he is talking about( since he's a future Investment banker who's SOLE interest is increasing his income. I am SURE he has worked a few jobs to know how the world is truley structured. It doesn't matter that he hasn't actually worked in corporate America right? He is obsessed with money. Hence, he will make money.


Therefore, everything this kid says must be true.


Asp-Z. I like you. I admire you for your drive and determination. While your goals are realistic. I feel you don't have a realistic idea of how hard it is to become a millionaire or whatever you want to make. I guess I don't know you well enough to determine that though

I don't know what "superficial qualities" you're referring to. People react to me according to their own attitudes and perceptions. In the case of men, some find me attractive, some don't. If you're talking about finances, I am financially quite comfortable. More than comfortable.

But I don't flaunt anything, and I very seriously doubt that anyone alters their perceptions of me because of my bank balance.

Actually have to think this is a perfectly correct generalization to make if you say that @30% of the people working in High-Tech could be dx Aspergers. I have stats to prove it btw...

I was quite attractive.
I also got my first house and in an expensive area.
I looked very young to have my own house, the new next door neighbours warned me to watch out for gold-diggers, great I thought, at last, a womans going to want me, even if for mercenary reasons, never happened though, there must be something hidiously unattractive about me, that even good looks and money couldnt counteract.

I do fairly good income wise, but it doesn't help. People still avoid me like I have the plague.

Most people have an unrealistic idea of how hard it is.

In regards to what caused the recession... The main tipping point was the housing bubble, fueled by subprime mortgages, right? Now, the consumer banks provided these mortgages because customers demanded them - people were so stupid they didn't see an issue with buying houses with ridiculous unsustainable mortgages they couldn't afford.

Of course, some of the blame must lie with the lack of foresight from the banks who sold these mortgages, but in a free market, businesses tailor their goods to consumer trends. Put simply, they just supplied for the demand they received from consumers. Merchant banks then did little apart from deal with the crap left behind from the consumer banks selling these mortgages to customers - they're used to making profits from mortgages and they did what they needed to in order to continue doing so.

So, yes, idiots who lived above their means are a reason why we are in recession, and they are the sole reason subprime mortgages took off in the first place.
