Women of Color Age 36-49 Have Median Wealth of just $5

How low can the term WEALTH be used without it getting insane?

I increased my wealth by finding a nickel?

Sometimes you can't have both.  Anyone that bought GS or JPM right after the meltdown has scored BIG on growth, if they hang for the long term they'll proably do ok on yield too. We can't all be Warren Buffet. You can chase growth & you can chase yield.

Most of us do not go to the FT site regularly. We are ordinary people. And as an ordinary"people" I finally have to let loose on the fake language which is going with the fake protestations of relaxed credit.  I mean the term "Wealth Management" which has replaced "savings" or "nest-egg" or "retirement savings". Just who do they think theyre kidding? The latest report is that Americans have an average of just $10,000. saved for retirement. "Wealth?" Don't make me laugh! So along with the cremation services and long-term-care junk mail, anything that calls my savings "Wealth Management" gets pitched into the trash.

The companies I handle are building up their own cash resources for bridge financing. I AM heartened to hear that the banks are waiting to see what the international regulations will be because I gave up on Congress a long time ago.

To whose benefit would it be to make sure that recovery does not occur before it politically more useful. Also, in 2011 and 2012 we may see the largest part of the stimulus funds reappear from their government hibernation cave. What a good time for recovery to occur.
