Turned in a literature review, a book review and gave an hour long presentation on the Japanese bubble and crisis from 1985 to 1998. Last day of classes this term. 3 more papers to get done by the 19th/20th.

you're within spitting distance from here! did you go to Banff to go boarding or just stopping there on the way to cowtown? Went there to meet up with family - just a quick weekend trip. Now it's back to more FWPs - another analysis of the Japanese financial crisis for my comparative political economy seminar. Complete with literature review and presentation due on Wednesday morning.

If I were smart i would have gotten an MBA years ago, become upper management by this age (39) and been snorting gigantic lines of the purest cocaine off of one of my many mistress's (who are only with me for the money, but that's ok, i'm only with them for the sex) asses. Instead I'll be lucky to crack 12,000 gross this year and still another 6 months of school left before the MA is mine. Smetty - shoot for crack-addled madman - you could become the Zizek of historical analysis!

Nobody shoved anything anywhere. It's not exactly a paywall, if you register for free you get a certain number of articles for free/month. And FP is usually pretty good.

I don't know about smetty, but I love doing this kind of work. If I could get paid to do it I would be over the moon.

It holds value, sure, but again that's artificially driven and additionally you can't use it as a currency (try walking into your local 7-11 with some gold leaf and buying something)... I think I've made the argument on here before, but gold has value only because people believe it does. Also what interest rates? You think low interest rates are a problem? why? you are not forced to buy whole coins. I'm talking about mining. yeah but that was the purpose of mining all along no? The purpose of mining was to make it harder to mine so that a decentralized currency could become centralized?

This demand is driven by artificial scarcity (and a healthy dose of stupidity if you ask me). The really sad thing is, bitcoin has been driven away from their original purpose of becoming an alternative, decentralized currency. As the process of mining bitcoins becomes more and more capital intensive, the currency becomes more and more centralized (as the barrier to entry becomes higher) and thus you end up with a currency much like any other - run by a select few elites. And with the price of bitcoin driven so high by currency speculators, it makes little sense to purchase them to use as currency. but don't mind me, i'm just an old fuddy-duddy who doesn't even see the supposed intrinsic value in gold

Remember, they're only worth that if someone actually buys them off you for that price.
