Reply #11: Overheard On Hate Radio - If You Don't Own Stocks You Deserve To Suffer [View All]

[KharmaTrain]

I stumbled on a commercial for a brokerage firm that were all giddy about high oil prices...cause they're making money from them and according to this commercial, you could be, too.

The upshot is this place speculates on oil futures and how wonderful it is when the price of oil goes up as this is a "great financial opportunity"...that the money you'd make on this "investment" (which I'm sure would cost you a minimum of $25 to 50k to deal in) would easily pay for the higher energy costs. Ya know...greed is a good thing...and if you can make a couple of bucks off of someone else's suffering...so much the better.
