I would definitely buy shares of a battlestar...
Now let’s get the asteroid mining going.
I’d rather it stay completely private so the stockholders don’t screw up the company.
Amen..
Spacebook, baby!
Heinlein’s Delos D. Harriman’s dream comes true — only 40 years later.
I agree.. Facebook offers nothing, SpaceX offers something..
yea just as long as the same ole assholes on wall street can make their billions on the backs or the buyers goping to make a few hundreds or thousands...we all need to buy into another ipo...whether it is worth it or not the same bums make the ssame millions and billions!
You’re late for your OWS protest.

I’m with you on the crony capitalism part but I have had no problem making money investing in stocks over the long haul.
(I am what they call a retail investor, not a billionaire type)
If you believe a company has good management and a good product etc., and you’re right about it, you will make money investing in it.
what i hate about the market per se is it has just become “robot” in it’s trading...only the big reakky trade and it (the market) has now become just a fraud...propted up by bernanky’s printing of new dollars at the average mans expense...it is like going to vegas and shooting craps...or russian roulette to live or die by what is really going on there. i worked hard for my money...but don’t have the money to be gambling like that with the govt sacks greedsteers who know everything before it happens for them on the inside...but will bring us in too early...or leave us in too long when it benefits them on every deal...and btw if they ever f*ck up they are bailed out on their loses...but for us it is tuff sh*t...once upon A TIME WHEN THE AVERAGE MAN ACCURES A MILLION OR TWO OVER HIS OR HER LIFE TIME you could get some retirement income safely making 3% - 5% in CDs or saving or treasuries...but now hell 1% or so...banks get free money from the fed and go it for these safey points competing again with the average guy and they don’t even have to make a risky loan to anyone to do it...just another rig of the system to pump up the flow into equities...but really just govnt intervention by the masters...we are lossing ground evveryday and will in time just be receivers..sheeple in line
Sorry, but you sound like someone from OWS.. Comrade..
