The COSTCO Thread

[byu71]

I have had it with my Delta/American express card.

I also am planning on joining Costco. They have a Costco/American express card and I am thinking of switching to that. Maybe I will just drop the American Express card and save the fee.

Obama scares me enough that I am going to find ways to cut back on my spending.

Any suggestions on which route I should take.

Buy only gold and ammunition, bury it in your backyard.

If Obama is really the basis for your decreased spending, you should probably take this route:

Really. I am really concerned what he could do to the economy. Some really smart people I deal with feel the same way. I am not saying we will be right and you will be wrong, but are you so sure of yourself that you can pronounce us "loonies".

I have clients sitting on hundreds of thousands in cash. I guess you call them loonie too and they got to where they are because of luck.

I don't think you should rush into a Costco membership. You might want to wait a few more years before making that commitment.

Seriously you guys can go F yourselves. F'en lawyers always think they know more than anyone else.

If Obama is going to decimate the economy (I have no idea if he will or won't) is it wise to be sitting on hundreds of thousands of dollars in American currency?

It was a mistake to ask. You have no idea what percentage that is of their total net worth. Let me just say, they would have even less of a percentage if it weren't for Obama.

Now, that is a judgement people are allowed to make. You guys can mock all you want.

I would appreciate you all forgetting I posted that and if possible I would like a mod to delete it.

See if I try to help again. If you want to jump headfirst into every latest fad out there, be my guest, jet-setter.

I don't have time to play one of your back and forth games. I am going golfing.

I think Costco sells discount passes to different local golf courses.

I wasn't mocking, I was being serious. Don't lump me in with Donut and Triplet, we all know those guys are wild cards.

In a hypothetical situation if an Obama reelection is going to be devastating to the American economy would one be wise to be holding American currency? Or hypothetically in American markets? Regardless of ones hypothetical net worth or what percentage of their hypothetical net worth is held in cash.
