I mos def think it will survive, but it's possible a few members will get kicked out. Inflation be damned, Greece desperately needs to print money.
Any chance the greenback makes a comeback?

According to multiple sources, a trader entered a "b" for billion instead of an "m" for million in a trade possibly involving Procter & Gamble

I'm lost here greenback44, I don't think I have ever targeted you.

My bad, greenie. LOL...didn't even pick up on that. It was a long night with a crying baby.
Funny though, I was actually looking forward to your response on the issue.

Buffet would just say, Buy Buy Buy.
I joked during the first crash every time it dropped 1000 points I was gonna take out a loan and buy into an index fund. If I was a broker I'da been buying something the whole way down yesterday.
