Ghost analyzes the February 7, 2011 market rally, warning that the Dow's gain to 12,161 points stems from overspeculation amid a mere 34,000 new jobs. He advocates for gold and silver over risky penny stocks while condemning AOL's $315 million acquisition of the Huffington Post as potential fraud involving Kenneth Iyengar. The episode further critiques Eminem's Super Bowl ad, Christina Aguilera's performance, and Groupon's rejection of Google's $4 billion offer, ultimately urging investors to contact the SEC regarding corporate malfeasance and avoid deceptive dating tactics that mirror societal decay.

A Napa guy knows the only way you'd give a freshly mined driver a brand new car is if he promises to never drive it.
Instead, let him grind the gears and knock over the neighbor's mailbox in something a little more suited to his skill level.
And with over 400,000 parts and a little Napa know-how, he can safely drive something that's nearly as old as he is.
It's not perfect, but it's perfect for him.
That's Napa Know-Howe.

And of course, to email me at any point in time, ghostpolitics at the Yahoo.com.
Anyway, folks, we've got a lot of things to talk about this evening, folks.
We got three hours of Capitalist Radio.
I want to hear what you have to say also.
Be taking your calls.
646-652-4869 is the number to call if you have anything to time in about.
But man, there are so many things to talk about.
The Super Bowl, of course, was yesterday for all the folks that were guzzling down some Billy Carter beer and eating chicken wings like they were going out of style.
The Super Bowl was yesterday.
And of course, there was a lot of disgusting, despicable debacles that we're going to get into.
I'm going to get into them in a minute.
But the first thing we want to talk about, folks, is business.
Now, I'm talking about the great day on the market that we had today.
You know, the Dow Jones Industrials closed out at 12,161 points.
It was up 0.57%.
Literally up almost 70 points on the day.
Dow Jones Industrials, up 70 points on the day almost.
SP 500 is up eight points, a little over eight points.
The NASDAQ today was up about 14, a little over 14.5 points today.
A lot of gains, a lot of 52-week highs on the Dow Jones Industrials.
Once again, folks, I just take precaution with all these gains here.
If we take a look at the markets, really quick, if I can get my data up here, if we take a look at the markets and some of the movers and shakers, we could start to see that there was definitely some movers in the energy sector.
Oh, yeah, anybody who had a couple of these energy stocks that had high market volume definitely cashed in on some of these short positions or some of these day trading type sales here.
But some of these movers were, of course, ExxonMobil was up, I guess, 65 cents today.
It was a pretty good up and down particular chart for ExxonMobil.
Caterpillar hit its 52-week high, which, of course, it was a stock to get into about, I think, two weeks ago when it released its earnings.
Let me tell you something right now.
I mean, it was volatile to say the least.
It also hit its 52-week high.
Some other energy stocks that kick some ass were General Electric, which of course is a diversified particular company, but it was up 31 cents.
Chevron Corporation was up 55 cents.
And these are all high-volume trades here.
I mean, these were highly volatile stocks.
So just because they closed up on these particular gains, I mean, it was just up and down.
Just take a look at the day charts on any of those particular stocks.
Another stock that was particularly peculiar is a lot of these financial stocks that started moving up and down on the market today, which were American Express was up a buck, change of 2.25%, a little over 2.25%.
The volatility on that stock was pretty decent if you happen to cash in on that as a day trader.
We also had Bank of America, which closed up at 38, up 38 cents, a change of 2.66% volatility on that stock as well.
It was just up all around the market, folks.
I mean, it was just, you know, IBM hit its 52-week high at $164.82.
It's just, I mean, I know that everybody here, okay, everybody here that's probably in the market is having a circle jerk over this.
I would just steer cautionally, or cautiously, I should say.
I would steer cautiously in this good news of the market.
I think that a lot of people right now are not necessarily thinking with their bright side of their investor brains at this point in time.
A lot of people are hyper-sensationalizing a lot of stuff that doesn't really correlate with the current economic situations out here.
We kind of just shrugged off the, you know, what was it, the jobs added, you know, with the failure to meet the jobs added last week.
The expectation was, what, 180,000, 180,000, 160,000?
We only got, what, 34?
That's ridiculous.
Yet we just completely bypassed whatever that disproportionate ratio was as it relates to employment in America.
And yet, you know, people are taking to certain earnings that companies are coming out with that are reaching profitability.
They're going off the hype of other stocks.
You know?
I mean, to be honest with you, it's just really, really a volatile market.
I would steer cautiously in this bull little run we're here.
I think we're going to have an economic retraction with all these gains out here.
A lot of these gains are being pumped up based upon a lot of overspeculation, in my opinion.
I mean, of course, there are some stocks that you can hold in here that are going to hold strong regardless.
But when an economic retraction in the market, when it takes a couple of steps back, everything goes down.
So if you happen to have some high positions today in the market, I don't know about tomorrow's market.
I think people may be selling off.
Maybe not, depending on earnings tomorrow.
We'll talk about who's going to be talking about earnings tomorrow.
But let me tell you, this is a very good market for day traders.
I mean, the very volatile market for day traders.
But I mean, the reason I'm just so apprehensive and the reason I sound so cautious is because it's not going with traditional investor logic.
All right.
I mean, you know, right now, if we look at the commodity sector, everybody sold off their positions on the commodities.
There's been a lot of gains in commodities if you've been listening to the program for the past several weeks.
Big time gain in commodities.
You can tell everybody sold off with the exception of a few positions that just can't they can't sell them all.
Demand is high, the supply is low, and that's all there is to it.
Everybody else sold off their positions that gained within the past several weeks on commodities.
Crude oil being one of them, which is pretty mind-boggling to me.
But once again, these people, all right, these individuals are selling their positions in hopes of cashing in on some of these equities gains.
And let me tell you, there's a lot of equities gains to be traded.
You have to be one of these individuals that have the proximity to evaluate the market on a consistent level, which means you have to have a lot of time, which means you have to be someone who probably doesn't work or is retired or somebody who works for themselves, somebody has their own company, that sort of thing.
And you have to be able to evaluate the market day to day, in my opinion.
You got to be able to evaluate the market day to day because it's helter skelter, man.
It's up and down, Jekyll and Hyde.
I mean, commodities across the board should be gangbusters, but everybody's selling off their positions.
Everybody's trying to cash in on the equities markets.
You can't blame them.
Not only that, the dollar gaining value against other currencies in the international community also helped this rally in the market, in my personal opinion.
So that's what I'm saying.
Anyway, we look at the commodities markets, crude oil down $1.75, which I think is way undervalued at this point in time.
And that's notwithstanding the Egyptian dismay.
I'm not just talking about the Egyptian revolution or the transition of bureaucratic power, but I'm also talking about the potential unrest in other portions of the Middle East.
Jordan is definitely seeing its fair share of rioting and upheaval.
You've got the Sudan still trying to tackle its unrest problems.
And I'm sure that a lot of this fervor that Egypt has spurred across the Middle Eastern region has probably penetrated the minds of those that are considering some sort of a takeover of another country or of another hypocritical type monarch or totalitarian government, whatever the case might be.
But notwithstanding all that, I just think, folks, there's just so much demand for everything.
I mean, China, first of all, is buying off all these commodities.
If you don't believe me, why don't you take a look at your nearest business site, Google, whatever search engine you search in, and just type in China Buys Commodities.
All right.
And just take a look at how much China is making an impact in our markets by purchasing the commodities that we make.
All right.
Now, that's just China, of course.
We've got emerging markets throughout the international community, Asia particularly, South America.
These people, these individuals, these markets also need food.
They also need commodities.
They also need all these things that everybody else needs.
So in my opinion, I still think that these damn things are undervalued.
It's all there is to it.
As a matter of fact, if you've been following up with my tweets, that sounds so fruity, doesn't it?
My tweets, if you've been following with the tweets, you would have seen that I actually linked up some kind of a little piece written by somebody, I don't know, something about the world economists trying to tell people that food prices, higher food prices, are here to stay.
And of course, you can check that out at Ghost Politics, the Twitter name of the follow.
But anyway, let's go down the line of commodities, and we'll take some calls here, talk about some other things.
Of course, crude down $1.75, which is ridiculous.
Gasoline futures down, you know, $4.5.
Bread crude, which is the European, down $1.68.
Natural gas down about $0.19.
Canola futures down about $1.50.
Everybody's selling off on those cocoa futures, folks.
I mean, good God, it was minus $30 today, minus 30 points.
Coffee futures, I don't know if it was because everybody was hungover from Super Bowl Sunday or whatever the case might be, but they decided to go ahead and affect the coffee futures market.
It was up 45 cents today.
Corn futures are down, believe it or not, 375, which boggles my mind once again, considering we have high demand for corn.
Read about that as well if you happen to be listening into that.
Corn is in a scarcity, not just because of the people's demand for it and its food value, but we made so much investment into the ethanol technology.
Remember that?
Ethanol?
Oh, we got a new ethanol, baby.
Got to clean up the egg.
Got to clean up everything for our kids, baby.
We got to do it for our kids.
Well, you know, now we've got a scarcity problem or a potential scarcity problem going along in the corn industry or as far as corn distribution is concerned.
But that's not reflective of the futures today.
It's down 375.
Cotton up 665, a change of almost 4% today.
Tell you, man, everybody needs cotton.
Everybody's bundled up in those blankets and using those threads to bundle up in this Arctic blast that we keep seeing out here in America.
Of course, folks, if you haven't read, wheat on the rise, not only are wheat futures on the rise based upon the scarcity of the emerging markets, but now we have commitments from the new government of Egypt.
If you read about this story, we've got commitments from the new government of Egypt to buy a whole new batch of wheat barrels or however they dispense wheat.
Believe it or not, Egypt is actually the leading importer of wheat, because they're in the freaking desert, for heaven's sake.
So they need the damn thing delivered to them.
They need wheat to come in and somehow feed the people out here in the middle of this desert, for Christ's sake.
So that definitely drove wheat futures up.
I kind of figured wheat futures were going up.
Hedge Against Inflation00:14:47
We talked about this last week.
If you listened in on that and capitalized on that, we talked about wheat futures going up, not only based upon demand, but on the impact of the atmospheric disturbances that we've been witnessing in these parts of cultivating these particular agricultural commodities.
And we figured that they'd be affected.
We also see move in sugar up $0.04, not much.
Soybean down $9.
Good God, nobody likes that soybean burger crap.
Good God, honey, how convenient.
Lumber futures down $2.
Probably has something to do with the lack of new home sales.
Oat futures are up five and a half.
Got to eat your Royal Oats.
Rough rice down 25 cents.
We've got wool futures just kind of just heading off, just leveling off.
And now we get into the metals department.
Now, folks, you know, we're seeing, or actually this morning, if you were trading futures early this morning, copper hit a 52 week or screw up 52 weeks.
It hit an all-time high.
It hit an all-time high, copper.
And you wonder why our damn pennies ain't made out of it anymore.
They make it out of some who the hell knows what they hell make out of it.
It feels like plastic.
I feel silly, you know, carrying pennies in my damn pocket.
When somebody gives me change, I don't even keep pennies.
I just throw on the floor so these stupid bums can stop being on the corner saying, yeah, maybe we'll work for food, man.
You know, just throw the damn pennies on the floor so these bums can get something to drink.
You know, so they can get that damn mad dog twenty twenty, whatever that cheap Kentucky fried chicken piss that they drink.
But anyway, copper is at an all-time high, folks.
And let me tell you, I think I'm bullish on all industrial metals at this point in time.
Copper, I think that there's going to be some retraction in copper, so I'd hold off.
As a matter of fact, we saw it as the trading day went on.
It's down now, $3.40.
But as far as gold, silver, I'm bullish on both of these commodities, and I'm not doing it because I'm being pumping and dumping here like most of these political talking heads that you see on the TV.
I don't mean to name any names, but Clint Beck and Mike Savage and these ass clowns, they're out here pumping and dumping gold because I guess they're paid to do so.
But I see legitimate gains here in the gold, silver market, and I just think that it's just going to keep going.
I think it's going to keep going based upon the weakening of the dollar, even though we're seeing gains based upon other currencies right now.
I think that's over speculation.
Once again, we're going to see a retraction in that regard in the currencies markets.
But that's the only thing that's basically increasing the equities markets is the strengthening of the American dollar.
It's strengthening the equities markets.
Everybody's selling off on their positions and commodities because there was a lot of gains to be made within the past couple of weeks.
They're putting them in the equities.
They're cashing in.
They're making cake.
But once again, I strongly recommend all investors out there be very careful in this market.
I think that an economic contraction can happen at any time.
I wouldn't be surprised at some point in time to see Dow down 200 plus points just like at an instant, just on a snap.
These are way too many gains for not too good of economic environmental situations.
I mean, if you take a look at the economic factors, outside of the earnings profits, other than the earnings that are coming out from these companies, economic situation is disgusting.
Unemployment is still high.
Job creation is at snail's pace.
There's no type of manufacturing.
We're at the dependency of a lot of foreign debt.
We're continuously feeding this monster of big brother government that is putting us in debts that we have to vote to continue to see we should still pay.
It's getting pretty disgusting.
So once again, once again, I tell all investors that are cashing in right now, I hope that you're cashing in.
Don't buy or just strike that.
Just be very careful in this market.
I know there's high gains.
I know that everybody on the business channel is acting as if they just saw a Roman Polanski film and they're trying to defend them against child rape charges.
But look, the problem is that this is just based upon overspeculation, man.
This is how the market goes.
The market hasn't seen very much good news in the past couple of years.
So when they see profits, when they see these gains, I think this is a reactionary tactic by investors.
This is why I'm saying when you see the investor take out its positions in the commodities market to invest in the equities markets, I just think that it's just over speculation.
Everybody's just trying to cash in on these gains.
And I'm just telling you, I'm telling you right now, mark my words, we're going to see some economic contractions or retractions, I should say.
And I think that people need to just, you know, if they cashed in and then they put some positions a couple of weeks ago, and now we, you know, you know, you're cashing on some of the 52-week highs on some of these stocks, whatever, cash in now and maybe, you know, see if you can, you know, kind of bottom feed later, if you know what I'm saying.
But once again, I think that the precious metals, I think that the metals market are bullish.
I would wait on copper a little bit.
I would wait for it to retract a little more because it has reached its all-time high.
But I don't think it's going to retract more than its current position.
I just think that all these metals are bullish.
I mean, you know, gold because of all the pumping and dumping, silver because the industrial factor.
And of course, everybody's wearing silver as a fashion piece of jewelry now.
They can't afford gold.
They can't go afford the gold chain anymore.
They already sold it off to all these ass clowns that are giving them pennies on the dollar.
So silver is on the rise, in my personal opinion, and there's a lot of industrial uses also.
Copper, you know, it's hit its all-time high.
I think there's going to be a little bit more retraction in the price, but I think it's going to go back up.
I just think that the metals are good, man.
I never thought I'd ever say it.
I've never been a metals investor.
But since I have seen what is going on here with the gold and the hoarding of the gold, then you can base a price.
I mean, you can hedge against potential inflation that's happening with our government in these metals.
And I just think there's just a lot of factors in there.
The reason I'm bullish, I want to hear from you.
What do you think?
646-652-4869 is the number to call here.
We've got some pretty good place in the market.
With the exception of the commodities markets, there's a few commodities.
Of course, wheat went up.
We talked about that last week.
But for the most part, everybody kind of sold off their positions and kind of diving right into this damn equities market, man.
I mean, it is a pretty good day-to-day trade.
Anyway, we're going to take some callers here.
646-652-4869 is the number to call.
I think 727, you there?
Yeah, I'm here.
What's going on, man?
Did you have something to say, or were you just listening?
No, I'm just I'm just listening.
I'd be interested to look to see in the stock market.
Which sectors are the ones that are figuring out a way to make money?
Well, you know, well, yeah, I'm glad you asked that question, sir.
We actually had a young man who's been an avid listener of the program for actually some time.
And I don't know his name.
He's just a random caller every now and then.
But I actually got encouraged by this program to get into the market.
And he was searching energy.
Now, if you happened to have made that play when he did, you would have made some serious capital.
But in my personal opinion, folks, sir, in my personal opinion, I think that you should consider investing in commodities.
I know that commodities took a dip here, but I'm long on commodities.
I think commodities are still 60% undervalued, even at these rates.
And what factors do I take in to make that kind of assumption?
Well, of course, demand.
Demand is going to increase as these emerging markets prosper in their world economic endeavors.
There's going to be more demand in that aspect.
We have these atmospheric disturbances, which are obviously going to affect the markets at least within the next two to three, four weeks.
We've got the aspect of inflation happening on the monetary system of America where we're just kind of not, I mean, we're not even really inflating.
We're just kind of just making the dollar into a piece of paper, really.
I mean, we're just continuously spending, and our government is putting the American people into financial obligations that we can't afford.
We can't afford.
So we're borrowing the money from other countries via these bond sales.
And the only people that have been able to or have been wanting to buy these bonds are China and Japan and a couple other people.
But in my personal opinion, sir, I think that you should invest in commodities.
Now, do you know how to invest in commodities, sir?
You're talking about futures.
Well, futures, I mean, options is a little dangerous, but you can invest in options.
But there's other financial instruments where you can invest into commodities.
Do you trade futures by chance?
No, I don't.
Well, you don't necessarily have to trade futures.
Do you trade stocks?
Yeah.
Well, you know, the thing you can do as a stock trader, and, you know, I haven't really gotten into this particular brand of financial instrument, but since you brought it up, we're going to go ahead and talk about it.
I'm talking about ETF, which are exchange-traded funds, which is kind of a financial instrument that is a quasi-mutual fund, but it's not a mutual fund.
It's an exchanged fund.
It's not based upon where you have to wait until the day's trading is over for you to trade off your mutual fund.
If you happen to be a mutual fund trader, which I'm not really a mutual fund person, I'd rather lose my own money if I'm going to lose it than have some jag off come in.
I'm going to throw a big chunk of cash, big chunk of capital at some mutual fund, and then have some asshole decide he's going to gamble it away on some pump and dump nonsense.
I'd rather have it on myself.
But the difference between this exchange-traded fund and a mutual fund is where the fund itself, and an ETF is for short, you can invest in actual sectors, in actual areas of the market without actually getting into trading the market.
For instance, if you have a hunch that you think that the commodities are going to go up, well, you can look for an exchange-traded fund or an ETF in the commodities sector and purchase as many ETFs as you possibly can with your capital or your liquidity that's remaining on the side.
And you hold on to it when these gains or these speculated gains come about, you can sell those things off just as a stock.
It's an instrument that acts as a cumulative representation of a certain sector, while at the same time, it's a financial instrument that you can sell like a stock.
You can literally day trade these things if you want to and actually take advantage of a whole sector, whether it's whatever you want, retail, energy, oil.
I mean, as a matter of fact, before I move on, I know that I've been saying that oil you know, oil is undervalued, and I don't know why these ass clowns in the investment market aren't moving in on the obvious.
But if we look at the energy ETFs and the oil ETFs, they're up.
I mean, you know, today they were up half percent.
You know, so this is what this Helter-Skelter market's about.
But have you ever heard of ETFs, sir?
No.
So are they traded like equities or futures?
No, they're traded like equities.
It's like a stock.
Like equities.
Can you option them?
Can you option them like equities?
You know, I don't really believe you can option.
I think you just have to go through the traditional method of optioning traditional equities.
It's not exactly like an equity.
It's more like a cumulative representation of a certain sector, like i.e., a mutual fund who trades nothing but retail or a mutual fund that trades nothing but commodities or a mutual fund that trades nothing but this or that.
The only difference is that unlike a mutual fund where you have to trade it after the day's trading, you can actually instantaneously trade this as if it was an equity.
So I don't know exactly if you can option.
Never really considered optioning ETF before, although I do trade them.
But thank you for your call, man.
Hopefully that helps you out in your endeavor.
972, you're there.
Hey, Ghost, what's up?
What's going on?
And I did make some comments afterwards.
All right, go for it.
All right.
Do you think it's safe to say that most of your BTR listeners don't have a significant chunk of money to play the market with?
Accumulate Blue Chip Stocks00:16:00
Well, you don't really need a significant chunk of money.
You just have to set aside a certain dollars each month.
And in my opinion, I think that people should go long on a stock that is really at a low point right now and just start accumulating.
And even if it's $100, $200 a month, and believe me, you've got brokerage counts that'll take that money.
And you just have it, you know, $200 a month, and you just accumulate that stock.
You accumulate it and accumulate it and accumulate it.
And at some point, that stock accumulation is going to grow into $10,000, $20,000, $30,000 in value.
And if the stock gains, of course, it's even better.
But, of course, you want to invest in some kind of blue chip.
I mean, if you're not somebody who's an avid investor or is a good speculator, I mean, just getting into the blue chip stock market and looking for a blue chip, which is anything on the Dow Jones Industrial right now.
But, you know, Dow Jones, a lot of people are right now is a bad time to do that sort of thing.
You want to look for a stock that's in the blue chip that's on the low.
Everything's at a 52-week high right now.
It's going against the whole idea of investing.
So what you would want to do is just go ahead and attempt to just try to accumulate as much blue chip stocks as you can that's on the low.
And you can just look at a chart, just base it upon a chart, if you know what I'm talking about.
And then, you know, believe it or not, you'll get a better rate of return than you would on any other particular asset with the exception of maybe a good piece of real estate.
Well, what I'm asking, what would you qualify as a significant piece of a significant chunk of money to invest into the stock market?
Well, in what fashion, long term, or if you want to get in there and start day trading and start capitalizing on these days.
Let's go long term.
What do you think is a significant chunk?
Well, a significant chunk long term is anything, I would say, over $1,000, anything over $2,000.
I mean, even if you just throw in $2,000 in a stock and just hold it for 20 or 30 years, I mean, unless you are a complete imbecile and you decide to go into something that nobody's ever heard of, or if you're somebody that decides, hey, I'm going to go ahead and throw $2,000 in the stock market, I'm not a good stock picker.
I'm just going to go with something that's blue chip, that's around, something that's going to have longevity, that sort of thing, and just not even worry about that $2,000.
Within 10 years, I guarantee you, that $2,000 is going to be worth a hell of a lot more than that $2,000 that you invested in.
And it's going to be a hell of a lot more than you even thought about.
I guarantee you that right now.
But the problem is, is that you want to buy stocks, blue chip stocks, at their low.
Right now, the Dow Jones Industrials, we were just talking about, I mean, we got a whole bunch of players in that index that got their 52-week highs today.
And this is not where you want to buy.
You want to buy a stock on the low, blue chip.
I mean, especially if you're an investor that doesn't know all the tricky, complicated financial instruments and understand how to accumulate news and that sort of thing.
I mean, I can't tell you a significant chunk.
I mean, I think any amount of money in the stock market or any amount of money in any financial instrument, not just the stock market, any financial instrument, even if you just go out and buy gold, let's say you just want to go out and buy gold.
Just say, hey, man, I got $2,000 or $3,000.
I want to go out and buy some gold.
Go out to a damn pond stop or a pawn shop and say, hey, look, I want to buy this, want to buy that.
And get these guys down, talk them down on the price, haggle them.
That's what they do.
And start accumulating gold until these gold prices get about $2,000, $3,000, $4,000.
And then you liquidate that gold on the market, man.
I mean, those are the types of things I'm talking about.
You don't have to have a lot of money to make money, man.
No, no, but I understand that.
You don't have to have a lot of money to make money.
The point I want to bring out to the audience is if you got $2,000 and you're invested in a stock like, let's say, Boeing, Boeing pays out anywhere between 2.5% and 3% dividends.
You can get a savings account at your local bank for that much.
That stock, yeah, you may have $2,000, but that $2,000 is only going to buy you 30 shares.
So to make a significant amount of money, it's got to raise just for you to gain $300 off $30,000.
It's got to raise $10 a share.
That's unrealistic.
I think that you would do a lot better teaching your fan base about trends and volatility.
See, there was a stock today, and I'm not going to mention any stock symbols, but it was two stocks today that were trading at about $1.20 a share.
And if you got $5,000, that's the perfect scenario for you.
You take the $5,000, you buy 4,000 shares worth of that.
And the whole time, these stocks fluctuated between $1.20 and $1.21.
And it was a trend all day.
It's a stock nobody really wants, but it was fluctuating one cent.
Now, If you have if you if you invest 4,000 shares, all right, if you if you buy 4,000 shares and that stock rises a penny, if you're on TD Ameritrade, that's 10 bucks per transaction.
That's $10 to buy, $10 to sell.
The stock raised $40 in less than two minutes, and it did that all day in three, four-minute increments.
And that's where you make your money.
It's only $20 per transaction, but that's how you build that nest egg.
That's how you get up to $20,000, $30,000, $40,000, $50,000.
And that's when you start going into futures.
To try to sit here and tell people to go into futures and gold with only $2,000, you're selling them pipe dreams, man.
I'm not selling them pipe dreams.
I disagree with you, sir.
I think you're selling them a pipe dream by saying that we should just go into the penny stock market and the OTC market, which is the over-the-counter market, which I don't even signify or even give any kind of legitimacy to on this program because I don't believe in those types of stocks.
I mean, anybody who's going to sit there and, yeah, okay, maybe you'll make a couple of bucks off these penny stocks, whatever.
But me personally, I think that if anybody's going to risk money, they're going to risk capital on anything.
They should risk capital on proven commodities, proven equities, proven companies.
I mean, what's to say that when you're trading this so-called penny stock or dollar stock, $1.25 stock, what's to say that somebody who's holding not just $4,000 like you, like you're doing, let's just say somebody has $100,000.
Because I'm not going to say names, but there are big firms that play these stocks, and I don't want to make any accusations, and the SEC is going to come in and all this other crap.
But anyway, they base their whole chump change penny stock gambles on individuals like you that believe that you can continue to work one or two stocks and eventually they'll just you're going to get it for them.
You know, because you're you're you're, you know every penny stalker goes out to every forum and every every chat room and says hey, look at this penny stock, it's going to go up and you know how it goes pump and dump, and you know everybody sells off.
I don't trust penny stocks as far as I can throw them, and I know that you're saying that I'm selling people pipe dreams because I'm telling people to get in the stock market, in the futures market, and telling them to buy blue chip.
But hey look, you're talking about getting rich quick.
Man you, no one, can get rich quick, you know.
You have to say, look, what we need to do is we need to set so many some odd dollars a month.
We need to diversify our savings.
We can't just save it in a savings account anymore honey, if you're talking to your significant other, you can't just save it in a savings account, because the devaluing of the dollar, the debasing of the currency, the value of that, the buy, the buying power of that dollar is being devalued every single day.
Our government is in power and continuing to spend its ass off.
So, right off the bat, even if you have it in the bank and you've got $10,000, $12,000, $15,000, it's not even going to be worth the money when you initially saved it.
I mean, it's not even going to increase with the amount of inflation.
The buying power is going to decrease while you're saving your capital.
So, what I'm saying is, is that since you don't want to necessarily put all your money in the bank, you want to put some money in the bank because you always have to have liquid around.
You never know what happens.
Damn, pipe busts or the damn electricity goes out, you get an electrical problem, whatever.
Something happens, you need some capital, need some liquid.
That's what it's there for.
But as far as long-term investments, I mean, I know that you're saying that, you know, hey, I'm giving people a pipe dream, but people have to go to work.
You're talking about somebody that's just taking about $2,000 playing penny stocks and building $40 here, $40 there, and at the end of the day, they got $200 after working a whole day.
$200 is working a whole day, penny stocks.
I mean, I just, I don't believe in that, man.
I believe people should do it the right way, and they can make serious money the right way.
I mean, if they don't know anything about the stock market, if they're working already, why should they not put away $200 a month and buy, let's say, I don't know, Coca-Cola?
And I don't own Coca-Cola, folks.
I just like Coca-Cola.
It's a good product.
I hate Pepsi.
But let's say they wanted to go invest in Pepsi, Pepsi or Coca-Cola, $200 a month, and they did this for five years.
All right?
You know, even if they didn't make tremendous amounts of gains like you want, you know, like that, oh, it was up $10 and $20.
It doesn't matter.
The equity itself is going to basically reprice itself with the market based upon the value of the dollar, based upon the profitability of the damn product, based upon a lot of variety of different factors.
And we all know Coke's not going anywhere.
So what is my point?
My point is, after about five years of investing in Coke at $200 a month, you have so many some-odd shares.
So what do we do with that money?
What do we do with those shares there?
Well, we can go to a bank and we can say, hey, bank, I want to bankroll my own day trading situation here.
I want you to at least give me $20,000 and I'm going to put these shares as collateral.
I want you to give me $20,000 at a low interest rate so I can start going out there and doing some day trading.
Or I want to put this money so I can get a business going on because I want to start whatever business, whatever bar, titty bar, whatever the hell you want to open up.
Or I'm going to put these shares on collateral so I can ball till I fall and get some sort of a badass ride or something of that nature.
I mean, I'm serious.
I mean, just two, two, I mean, and it doesn't necessarily have to be a lot of shares, folks.
Those shares are worth more than money, man.
Don't you understand that?
I mean, they're worth more than money.
Money at this point in time, if you have cash, you're putting it in your damn safe, you're putting it underneath your bed, it ain't going to be worth the same amount in a month.
You have to realize that.
That's what I keep telling you.
And I know that people want to get rich quick.
I know it.
It's rough.
We all want to, man.
I'm an old man.
I know people talk to me all the time.
Email me and say, hey, it's funny.
You're talking from real high up there and we're down here.
What are you talking about?
I was down there, man.
I was in a bar with some silver foot in my mouth.
Do I sound like some articulate Ivy League scholar?
No.
I did it by being observant, by understanding the game, reading, not stop thinking, that sort of thing.
Now, I know people in the chat room are saying, how much is Coke?
I was just using Coke as an example, all right?
You can invest in any blue chip.
And what I mean by blue chip is anybody who's on the Dow Jones Industrials, man.
You know, there's only like, what, over 30 companies, a little over 30 companies?
There's only a little over 30 companies on the Dow Jones Industrials.
They ain't going nowhere.
I'm telling you, they're not going anywhere.
If any or all of those particular stocks take a dive, our economy is gone.
That's what you need to realize.
Our economy is tied to that Dow Jones Industrial.
So what am I saying to folks?
I'm saying if you don't want to do what I do, which is, you know, get a little risky, and the only reason I've been getting risky is because I gave up my conservative politics.
I told conservative ideology to take a hike and go bang Moose Hump and Sarah Palin or something.
And it decided to start taking risks and those risks paid off.
I mean, it's a game, man.
But don't sit here and give me this penny stock story, man.
Don't give me this penny stock nonsense, man, because I don't want to hear it, really.
I don't want to hear it.
I don't want to hear it.
Because, look, those penny stocks ain't worth dick.
They're worth nothing.
And so what?
Okay, you get 40 bucks here and there.
Why don't you just save your capital?
And you're saying, well, you're saying that people can do this.
Hey, why don't you just save your capital, man?
Don't you understand that?
You know that unless you are an absolute moron, you can save at least $10,000 in one year.
$10,000.
Unless you're an absolute buffoon, you can save $10,000 in one year.
I don't care if you got my kids.
I don't care if you're giving me that excuse.
You can save $10,000 in one year.
A high school kid can save $10,000 in one year.
All right?
$10,000, and you don't necessarily have to save it in the bank.
Save some of it in the bank, save some of it in stocks, save some of it in gold, save some of it in whatever.
That's what you call diversifying your portfolio.
You should look into your jewelry box, see how much gold you got.
Those are cash reserves right there, son.
You know, I mean, you know, you should take a look and see if you've got a wine cellar underneath your mom and dad's house over there so you can see if there's any bottles of wine.
Those are cash reserves, son.
Like I said in episode, was it number one or number two?
I mean, just imagine, just put your money in anything and save it.
Buy a bottle of Christal 2001 today, and if you save that bottle, and of course you have to preserve it correctly, you save it for five years, you're going to double, if not triple your money based upon the value and the demand of that particular aged bottle, man.
Hidden Cash Reserves00:15:38
I'm just saying, man, I'm just giving you pearls here.
I'm just trying to say, I know there's people that want to get rich quick.
They want to make, you know, all this cash.
It just doesn't work that way.
It works that way for some people, you know?
I mean, sometimes it works.
It sure as hell worked for Ariana Huffington, isn't that right?
Any of you folks that don't know by now, Ariana Huffington, which is the creator, and I'm assuming the owner of the Huffington Post.
All right?
All right?
Huffington Post is in the house here.
Well, the reason I bring this up is because the Huffington Post being the liberal biased, oh my God, me, you know, liberal garbage like that.
I just want to show you how much Internet business are going for out here.
I want to tell you how much Internet businesses like this are going for, which is nothing but a bunch of regurgitated, opinionated crap.
All right?
$315 million is what AOL paid for the Huffington freaking Post.
Yeah.
$315 million, million dollars for a stupid website that does nothing but regurgitate a bunch of leftist propaganda.
I mean, good Lord.
I mean, I mean, I guess I should go back to the conservative business there, man.
I mean, if they're paying that much for Arianna Huffington for a stupid website, you know, pumping out nothing but a bunch of leftist garbage, I got to go back to the conservative route, man.
Oh, conservatism!
Conservatism.
Give me a break.
Yeah, I know.
I mean, people are freaking out over here.
Are you kidding me?
No, I'm not kidding you.
$315 million.
And not only that, folks.
Arianna Huffington is now in charge of AOL's content development or whatever the hell.
stupid title for her over there.
She's in charge of...
I mean, it's disgusting.
I know.
Look, people are barfing.
I'm offended by this.
I could tell you.
I know.
It makes me want to puke too.
I mean, we all know Arianna Huffington, right?
Do you know her?
You remember she was married to some, I don't know, public official, one of these politicians that ended up turning up a little gay, you know, toe-tapping, little, he ended up playing for the pink team, for lack of a better term, and she ended up divorcing him.
Even though he was a right-winger, even though he was on the right of the political spectrum, you know, she ended up, you know, kind of just throwing that in the closet, you know, like, oh, I don't know, I don't know.
I didn't know he's gay.
I don't know.
I'm Ariana Huffington.
I don't know.
Now she's banging Bill Maher.
Jesus Christ.
Are you kidding me?
Bill Maher?
Bill Maher.
I mean, have you seen the type of disgusting tale that this bastard actually brings to like award shows or in public arenas and crap?
Yeah, I mean, he did a gig in Austin one time, and this guy brought out, I mean, at least a 6'2 ethnically ambiguous stankosaurus that I mean, I didn't know whether it was a freaking man or a shim or what.
But this guy walks out and he's like, yeah, yeah, I'm hitting this.
I'm Bill Maher.
Socialism now.
Shap.
But anyway, the only reason I'm bringing all this up is because Arianna Huffington and the Huffington Post really capitalized on, you know, basically internet content production.
You know, I mean, you know, give me a break, Ariana.
Huffington Post, $315 million.
Is there anybody out there that really believes that this website is actually worth $350 million?
I mean, I read somewhere, it's 10 times the revenue that this stupid website receives.
10 times the revenue in advertising.
10 times in revenue.
Let me tell you something.
If I was a stockholder in AOL, And the market just kind of tongue-lashed AOL because let me tell you, it it didn't respect the stock very well.
I mean, any investor who knows anything knows that this was a disgusting display.
It was down 75 cents.
You know, but there was a volatility.
But, I mean, people are not happy.
Investors cannot be happy that, you know, your investment.
You know, if you happen to be a long-term investor in AOL because you think AOL is going to be a good long-term stock, and then you hear that, you know, you're reading the paper, Ariana Huffington gets $350 million and some executive seat in AOL for her Huffington Post.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Good God.
But you see, I mean, isn't she an immigrant, too?
Isn't she like one of these immigrants?
Like, what are you aiming?
350.
See, only in America, folks.
And you tell me that, you know, oh, we po in America, baby.
We po in America.
That ain't fair, baby.
We po in America.
Anyway, let's take some calls here.
What does everybody think?
646-652-4869.
610.
You there?
Give me a few minutes there.
I have a red lie.
Man, I can't even understand you.
You need to put them kids to bed.
I hear like four or five kids back here.
Won't you put them kids to bed before you call me, sir?
All right?
Won't you put them damn kids to bed for heaven's sake?
What the hell is your problem?
I hear like four or five bratton-ass kids out there.
I could probably smell the shit-stained diapers from here.
Get the hell out of here, sir.
Don't try to prank call me.
All right, 646-652-4869 is the number to call here.
We were talking a little bit about investments.
We were talking a little bit about Ariana Huffington, the Huffington Post, getting $315 million from AOL for the damn Huffington Post.
I mean, I can't believe this.
Can you?
I want to hear from you.
I mean, are you a stockholder in this company?
Are there any AOL stockholders?
I want to talk to you.
646-652-4869.
All right?
I want to talk to you.
It's disgusting, man.
Anyway, let me just go ahead and move on.
All right.
Let me just go ahead and move on here.
Because, you know, obviously, individuals out here in the internet land love Ariana Huffington.
I mean, AOL wouldn't even have looked it a second way.
It wouldn't even have looked at it twice, you know, if people weren't going there.
Apparently, it has 25 million hits a month.
25 million liberal assholes clogging up the fiber optically connected world we call the internet, so that they can, you know, get their version of liberal propaganda based nonsense digitally processed to them like a bunch of lab rats running to food pellets.
It's a disgrace, it's disgusting, it makes me sick.
315 million dollars, good lord.
Anyway, I hope BLOG TALK Radio doesn't sell out, you know, because you think i'm gonna be on the air.
They sell out.
The AOL, you know, gives BLOG TALK Radio 200 million for this job.
Good god, I could just see Arena Huffington.
I don't like you, ghost.
We, we can't do this, no more.
No no, ghost.
No, you two.
Race is gone.
No no, I don't like you.
No no, you're not politically correct.
Uh no, No, give me a break.
I'm serious.
I mean, I hope they don't.
I hope they don't because, you know, they give me some pretty good leeway on this show, and I want to thank them for that.
But anyway, I don't want to be too much of a kiss ass here.
646-652-4869.
We got area code 404.
Are you there?
Yeah, I think you're selling fight dreams and you suck my fucking cog, you nigger.
Penny stocks, my balls.
Yeah, this is the guy that sold penny stocks.
Now that I made him look lower than Roseanne Barr chasing after a greasy cheeseburger with her fat, jelly ass, sausaged hands behind her back.
This asshole calls up and does one of these disgusting, despicable displays of human lack of personality, for heaven's sake.
It makes me sick.
Just sit there and shut up there, penny stalker, all right?
Let me see how rich you are.
First of all, you can't be that articulate because, I mean, for you to just come up with, yeah, penny stock in the balls, man, yeah.
You sound like some trailer park trash-living ass clown who obviously thinks they're black, like Eminem.
And let's just go ahead and start talking about the Super Bowl ads since we're going ahead and talking about Eminem.
I mean, did anybody see Chrysler?
I believe it was Chrysler.
It was one of those car companies that used Eminem, this disgusting, despicable, racist slap in the face to black people, Eminem.
Did everybody see this asshole?
I mean, this is what Penny Stalker over here is.
You know, Penny Stalker is just like that.
I mean, he's a product of this Eminem generation where white or, you know, other ethnic-based kids other than urban-based community act as though they're from the hood, even though they ain't from the hood.
They ain't never seen the hood.
You know?
Like, Eminem, you know, he's like claiming Detroit in this advertisement in the Super Bowl.
I'm sure you saw it.
All right.
I mean, I nearly choked on a damn chicken wing bone while I was gobbling down some chicken wings during the damn game.
I nearly choked watching this stupid piece of garbage pimp himself for some car company or something.
But then for this asshole, for this asshole to sit here and claim Detroit, even though some big ass, you know, fat Albert-looking brother kicked his ass out of Detroit when he was like 11.
I mean, put him in the hospital.
It's all documented.
You idiots can go look it up yourself.
All right.
I mean, some big, you know, big, very white-looking motherfucker.
You know what I'm talking about?
Big, huge, you know, gorilla in the mist kind of guy.
He kicked his ass out of Detroit, put him in the hospital.
Mammy got scared.
Sent him to like West Virginia.
You know, West Virginia.
Well, with some trailer park somewhere.
And that's why he hates his Mammy.
You know, that's why he talks about his mammy.
Mammy, you sent me out here at Chalde Park.
I wanted to be in 8 Mile.
I wanted to be in Detroit, man.
He comes back like 10 years later when he's like, you know, 19, 20 years old, trying to act like he's always been there.
And now he's got you people believing this.
I mean, that's how sick media is, man.
He actually has you people believing that this guy comes straight out of Eight Mile Compton or something.
You know, like he was busting cats his whole life for some crap.
He was getting bitched around.
And you see, you got actual, you know, white kids, black kids, Mexican kids actually buying this stupid crap.
I mean, can some real gangster rapper please bust a cap in Eminem's ass already?
Please.
I mean, can somebody please just just shoot him, man?
Bust a cap in his ass.
I hear all these rappers all the time.
Yeah, yeah, I bust a cap like it ain't Nathan because I got a heart like Satan.
Yeah, I split your wig and hat to the back of your ass.
Yeah, and all this crap.
I mean, why don't you start doing it?
Why don't you start, you know, busting some caps on some on some Eminem?
You know, I mean, you know, this guy, you know who he picks on?
You know who he picks on all the time at every award show?
Moby.
You know?
Moby.
Some half a fruit, you know, frail ass, skin and bones looking techno nerd, you know, that has no way to defend himself whatsoever.
I mean, literally, a bitch could, like, bitch slap him and he would probably crumble in delicacy.
But this is what I'm saying, man.
I mean, it's it's a disgrace.
It's just it's a disgrace.
He goes and picks on Moby because he knows Moby ain't gonna fight back.
Why don't he go pick on somebody like Snoop Dogg?
Huh?
Why don't you go pick on somebody like C Murder?
How about that, huh?
How about that, Eminem?
You want to prove that you got some nuts?
Why don't you go up to C Murder and give him a slap?
Huh?
How about that, you stupid, milky-looking piece of crap?
Huh?
Why don't you go up to somebody that's a real gangster and say, yeah, man, you think you're bad, man?
I'm Eminem, man.
You ain't going to do nothing.
I hate Eminem.
And anybody who knows that piece of crap, you tell them if I ever see him, just give me five minutes alone with that old piece of garbage.
All right, when I mean old, I mean, you know, he's trying to think he's 19.
The guy's like 40 years old.
Seriously, he's like 40 years old.
So still trying to think he's like 19 years old.
He's wearing the hoodies.
That disgusting, stretched, Farrah Fawcett facelift that he got can't hide the fact that he's still an old piece of garbage.
All right?
And I'm sick and tired of seeing him.
I'm sick and tired of the American people continuing to put money in this idiot's pocket.
Can a please gangster, can a real gangster please stand up?
All right?
Can a real gangster please stand up and bust a cap in this idiot's ass?
That's all I'm saying.
Let me pray to God for that.
Everybody, everybody bow your heads.
Bow your heads.
Everybody ready?
God, if you're listening in, God, please.
Eminem, I think he's probably went to your well one too many off one too many times.
And I think it's a good time at this point in time, God, to, you know, I don't know, have him trip on the ice and, you know, bust his head open so it can be a closed casket.
You know, or, you know, have him trip down the stairs and, you know, have him do a damn Linda Blair head turning situation.
You know?
I mean, make the ICP, the insane clown pussies, come out and bust a cap in his ass.
That would be the perfect scenario, wouldn't it?
Hey, have like that fat, jelly-ass clown bastard from ICP, Violent J, bang his broad, come in in the middle of, you know, Violent Jay's 450-pound jackhammer ass banging his broad.
Betrayal of Conservatism00:12:24
He comes in, Violent Jay comes out, he's naked, and, you know, I don't know.
Just, you know what I'm saying, God.
I don't mean to be so, you know.
I don't mean to be so demanding, but please, you know, Eminem, we don't need him anymore, God.
He's a piece of shit.
All right.
Amen.
Love you.
All right.
Anyway, 646-652-4869 is the number to call.
We're going to go ahead and take some callers here.
I'm sorry I went on that diatribe.
I just don't like Eminem.
I think he's a piece of trash.
408, you there?
Yes.
Hey, what's going on?
Hello?
Hey, what's up?
Hey, Jose, how are you?
Yeah, chilling.
That's good.
Anyways, to go back on your AOL thing, I have about a thousand shares of AOL and because of this Huffington thing I'm about to share.
And I just want to know what I should do with the money.
Well, I don't know.
I mean, to be honest with you, I don't really want to tell you what to do there.
I mean, I would call investor relations right away and ask somebody there for an explanation on what somebody's thinking for this $315 million purchase of Huffington Post.
I mean, that's got to be a good debt in I don't know if there's much profits.
I know that ad revenue and content revenue was down tremendously for AOL.
So I don't know what the hell that they're thinking with buying the Huffington Pulse.
Huffington Post for $315 million.
I mean, have you called the investor relations line by any chance?
No, I haven't.
I haven't done that yet, but I was just listening to your show and, you know, just heard this.
And I think that's probably what I'm going to do is call the investor relations line and figure out what to do.
Well, I mean, you know, the thing about AOL is that it just got away from Time Warner.
I mean, Time Warner and AOL, I mean, they kind of branched off, kind of separated, and this is kind of the remnants of that.
But I mean, I'm sorry that you own so many shares of AOL.
I mean, I still think it's an okay, I mean, I don't know, I wouldn't invest in it, but I hope it's an okay long-term investment for you, ma'am.
But I would call investor relations and ask for an explanation.
If they don't give you an explanation, I would sell off.
I mean, seriously, I mean, that's why you're seeing a negativity in the market.
It was down 75 cents today.
And I believe, what's the, what's the, let me see the ticker on that.
The AOL right now is trading at $219, $21.19.
I mean, $0.75 on a $21 stock is a pretty considerable amount of loss.
I mean, it's a 3.41% loss there.
I mean, so if you own the 1,000 shares, I mean, you lost, you know, about $7,500.
You know, I mean, it's I mean, it's not a joke.
You know, I mean, I don't know.
I mean, I'm just saying, you know, or something.
I'm not good at math.
I mean, somebody get the math for me.
I'm sorry.
Anyway, ma'am, I hope that you pan out fairly well in that AOL stock and continue trading no matter what.
I mean, if you happen to stay in the AOL stock and they give you a pretty good explanation and you think that the future looks bright with the Huffington Post and maybe Ariana Huffington has some magical web-induced power and they're anticipating more content being created, well, then by all means, stay in there for the long term.
But if you feel that they can't give you an explanation on why they paid $315 million for AOL, I would definitely consider moving on that position and possibly moving it into a position where you can get some actual capital instead of losing on your investment.
But good luck to you on that 408.
I hope everything goes out for you, and I want to thank you for calling.
206, you there?
Yeah.
Which is not invested in stocks.
It's the same moron.
Anyway, 610, you there?
Yeah, I want to apologize to you for that last call.
I was picking up my nappy-headed children at school.
I'm Kenny Bolton.
I'm also on Block Talk Radio.
I have a show, the Black Conservative Show at night.
I don't know if you've I'm sorry.
I thought you were one of these trollers who calls up.
Oh, no, I'm sorry about that, but I do enjoy your show.
I want to tell you that I very much like what you got to say because I'm a self-made man.
I am a black man.
I'm not one of these wilders or any of these people like you call them.
What do you call them?
Mickey Knickers or something like that.
Yeah, well, you know, I call a lot of people a lot of things, so, you know.
I'm not living a very good life.
I live out here in the outskirts of Memphis, Tennessee, nice suburbs, Germantown.
We've got money invested in multiple businesses and gotten congratulations.
Yeah, we're doing very good because we're not because we're not wilder.
We're not those liberal wireless people.
Those liberal widers that stand there yell about everything.
And that Huffington Post, I don't know who reads that Huffington Post because that's just a bunch of widers.
I mean, it's what 25 million people apparently go each month and get some liberal propaganda out there and have a circle jerk about it.
They got more than that that voted for that Barack Obama, whatever his name is.
But let me ask you, have you heard the Black Conservative show on at night?
We're on at 11 p.m. Eastern Time on for two hours every night.
We have a conservative view of America.
And I don't know about you, Virgin Markham.
I am one of the Erudite hosts on Black Talk Radio.
Well, you know, I've actually heard you there, Black Conservative.
But, you know, the problem is I'm no longer a conservative.
I'm a capitalist at this point in time.
I don't believe in conservatism anymore.
I think conservatism is a thing of antiquity at this point in time.
I'm basing that particular assumption on MTV, you know, MTV and skins, you know, where we can now legally see child pornography on a nightly basis on MTV.
I take very, very, I'm very offended by the conservative movement embracing Sarah Palin.
Sarah Palin is an absolute disgusting, despicable display of America.
And for us to embrace this piece of crap, all right?
For us to embrace this piece of crap as some sort of mouthpiece of conservatism makes me sick and it makes me want to puke.
So, you know, black conservative, I'm glad that, you know, you've been able to, you know, make something of yourself.
I'm glad that you're out there living large.
But I would strongly advise you there, black conservative, to reconsider being a conservative.
You know, I mean, you know, conservatism, they make you want to stop doing certain things.
They chastise you for doing certain things.
And then, what, 10, 15 years later, they do them?
Remember when us conservatives, we used to chastise people.
We used to chastise people that used to get pregnant as a teenager.
We used to send them off to some unwed mother's home.
Remember back in those days?
We used to chastise them and make them feel like the pieces of garbage they are, that they really are.
But now, what are conservatives doing with the single-teen mothers?
What do we do?
We're embracing it.
Oh, yeah, we're coddling it like it's a goddamn gift from God or something.
I remember.
I remember, black conservative.
I remember that goddamn 2008 Republican convention when every one of those stupid assholes that used to be conservative, that used to be whatever, whatever the hell conservative meant, were praising this Eskimo Bimbo's daughter for shitting out a kid with some asshole that knew how to work a hockey stick in Alaska.
And they were praising this bimbo, even though she was stumbling over her own tongue like John Edwards trying to explain how to cheat on a dying white.
And they just did the damn conservative movement betrayed me.
It betrayed me.
And I'm not going to sit there and continue to have these conservatives try to sit here and say, oh, yeah, we're just such great people.
We're just such great people.
We abide by our values and our ethics.
Bullshit!
All my life, you pieces of garbage, all my life, I followed the conservative principles, I followed the conservative values all my life.
And now look at now, look at what happened to the conservative movement.
The conservative movement has turned into a pathetic, ridiculous spectacle that is nothing different than these liberal pieces of garbage.
I mean, we actually got bimbos who shit out 12 kids from 12 different fathers collecting $5,000 a month, $6,000 a month in government subsidies that are actually claiming to be conservative.
I'm a conservative, baby.
I'm a church-going girl, baby.
I got five, ten kids.
It don't matter, baby.
I'm conservative, baby.
I don't want my kids going out there to their bad school, baby.
I don't want them making round or whatever in that game live, baby.
I don't want to do that, baby.
It's disgraceful, man.
I'm sorry, black conservative.
I don't mean to be singling you out, man, but you know, once you unearth that conservatism, man, it just makes me sick, man.
I'm just sick.
I'm sick.
I'm sick of conservatism.
I'm sick of liberalism.
I'm sick of the political system.
I'm a capitalist.
Capitalists don't need political systems.
We buy political systems.
Don't you understand that?
I mean, we don't need to worry about who's going to be in power, who's not going to be in power, because no matter what, we're going to capitalize.
And if there's going to be some anti-business government that's reigning supreme in this particular country, well, then we'll get our money and move it elsewhere.
You understand?
I'm not going to sit here and continue to think that this supposed representative government is going to somehow have our best interest at hand, given the fact that the majority of the American people are morons.
All right?
The majority of the American people are idiots.
They're stupid idiots.
I spit on most of them.
I mean, let me just start naming them off the top of my head.
Single mothers.
I spit on you.
The Poe in America.
I spit on you, idiots.
People that are collecting disability for things like fibromyalgia.
Oh, yeah.
I spit on you, assholes, especially.
Oh, yeah.
I'm collecting disability for people for bipolar disorder.
So I got to get about two Gs a month so I can live my life as an insignificant basket case.
Why don't you get a phone that works instead of buying it from the swamp meet, you Chinese electronical gidget worshiping piece of nipple clamp loving butt plug up the ass looking crap?
Shut up.
111, you're on the air.
Yeah, you're not going to say anything.
Just sit there and shut your mouth, all right?
Shut Up Penny Stock Loser00:02:54
Anyway, I'm sorry to go on that tirade about, you know, all this conservative stuff.
I know people are like, ghost is flipping out in the chat room either.
He's flipping.
He's losing it.
No, I'm not losing it, folks.
I'm just, I'm betrayed, all right?
Try dedicating yourself to something for all your life only to be betrayed by the thing that you dedicated yourself to.
It's a disgrace.
It's an act of betrayal.
And that's how I feel when I look at the conservative, the so-called conservative movement.
I feel betrayed.
646-652-4869 is the number to call here.
I want to hear from you.
I don't want to hear from any of these ass clowns that are sitting here trying to make prank calls to impress the piece of tuna-smelling poontang that's probably next to them, thinking that it's winning them brownie points to get in the panties or something.
Give me a break.
And since we're talking about, what were we talking about?
We were talking about advertising on the Super Bowl.
I know I got off on that tirate that ended up going into conservatism.
But we were talking about Eminem and how a rapper needs to bust a calf on his ass, and I'm sick of seeing him.
And why we saw him on the Super Bowl is beyond me.
But another guy I'm sick of seeing, also, which we saw on the Super Bowl advertisements, is this idiot Adrian Brody.
You know?
Adrian Brody.
I mean, are you kidding me?
I mean, why are chicks digging this asshole?
I mean, you know what I'm saying?
This is what I'm telling you, you women that are pissing and moaning.
There's no more real men in the world.
There's no more real men in the world anymore.
Well, you want to know why there's no more real men in the world?
Because you're liking assholes like Adrian Brody.
All right?
Adrian Brody.
I mean, Adrian Brody is a man that you don't want at your cocaine party.
That's all I got to say.
I mean, that nose is a bigger distraction, you know, than two men giving each other oral compilation across the street from an elementary school.
I mean, give me a break.
I mean, seriously, man, I mean, what the hell's going on here, man?
You're damn right, that nose.
Are you kidding me, man?
But he's every Coke dealer's worst enemy.
You know what I'm talking about?
I mean, he just has to go around the bag, and he just sniffs it.
I mean, half the bag's gone.
Adrian Brody Distraction00:15:07
I mean, just good God, you know?
Anyway, 646-652-4869-207, you there?
There you go, 207.
Yeah, you hung up.
Come on, man.
408, you there?
Yes, what's up?
It's Goofy Bone.
Hey, what's going on, Goofy?
Hey, man, you know, I got maybe like, I'm going to say, like, 90-something shares in this AOL thing, and I think that they're just, they're stupid.
I'm going to look with my little stockbroker over here.
I'm going to invest in something else.
Do you have anything off the top of your head that I can just throw this in?
This money I'm going to get back and what little I'm going to lose?
Well, you know, geez.
I mean, I wouldn't invest in the equities at this point in time.
I would day trade if you can liquidate those equities that you have and maybe day trade it if you have some other liquidity on hand.
But as far as going into something else to hold on to, I don't know.
I would just look in the Dow Jones Industrials.
I don't know one offhand.
Everything's pretty much high right now.
I mean, I'm of the business persuasion that you buy low, you sell high.
But then again, there are some positions that I think that are pretty decent.
And look, I'm not going to put this out there.
Never mind.
But if you're considering selling your position there for a while or goofy bone, I would consider putting it in some other blue chip stock, man.
I like GE.
GE looks good, even though it's at its 52-week high, but I think GE is undervalued at this point because, well, it got the bailout, first of all, so it's recapitalized.
Secondly, it's in bed with the government.
It's in bed with the government.
So what does that mean?
That means the CEO of GE is supposed to be the head job creator.
I just think there's a lot of reasons to, you know, if you're going to put your position in anything, put it in something like GE, even though it's hit its 52-week high.
Intel also, I'm long on Intel also.
There's a couple of other positions I like, but I'm going to wait to the other shows before I start delving those out, Goofy.
But why are you going to sell your positions in AOL?
You don't like the Huffington Post scenario here?
I mean, come on.
They're going to spend $300 million on the Huffington Post.
Are you serious?
Can we at least?
$315 million, and they're going to put Ariana Huffington as the head of content delivery or, I don't know, some position.
Well, why even do that?
Why won't you spend $315 million on upgrading AOL?
Nothing stupid.
That's a good question.
You know, not some stupid Huffington Post that nobody really cares about.
I've only heard of the Huffington Post maybe three times in my life.
And you're seriously going to spend $315 million on this company for what?
What is their gain on that?
That's what I want to know.
I don't know.
That's why I brought it up in this particular program because if people that are invested in this, I mean, you have to look at the numbers, man.
This is 10 times what they earn.
10 times the ad revenue that they get for the Huffington Post.
10 times the ad revenue.
I don't think Huffington Post is even worth $10 million, let alone $315 million.
I mean, you know, if you want my personal opinion, of course, this is my opinion.
I would look towards the ties between the individuals in the Huffington Post and the individuals in that corporate infrastructure of AOL, because this seems like too sweet of a deal for anybody looking from the outside in.
It looks like favoritism, in my opinion, it looks like some sort of inside deal.
Because if we take a look back at Huffington Post, it cost a million dollars.
Huffington Post got a million dollars in capital, what was it, two or three years ago?
Three or four years ago.
Four years ago.
A million-dollar capital.
Since then, they've acquired $40 million in extra capital.
And, of course, those are obviously financial obligations or debts of some sort so that they can continue to sustain the Huffington Post.
Now, all of a sudden, this is worth $315 million, and we're going to put Arianna Huffington in some big position in AOL.
It makes no sense.
It makes no sense.
I mean, man, if I were you, I would call Investor Relations right now, and I would just start chewing people out.
I would start just, I would say, are you kidding me?
Somebody better explain to me what is the position on getting this particular quote-unquote asset.
I don't see $315 million worth of value on this one website.
I don't get it.
You know what, Ghost?
I'm going to do that.
And tomorrow I'm going to call you up with an update because this really pisses me off.
The fact of the matter is that, I mean, I know I barely got, I think it's altogether 97 shares.
Because I used to work for AOL in their booming days in the 90s, and I've always had shares with them.
So, you know, I just left it there and let it sit.
It really hasn't gone anywhere.
It's just been, you know, floating the waves of the stock market, but it's still there.
But now that I heard about this, I'm like, oh, my God.
I'm afraid of it.
It's disgraceful, man.
It's horrible.
It's like AOL doesn't even make that kind of money to throw away.
So how the hell can you sit there and buy the Huffington Post and put good old Arianna Huffington up at the top?
What is she going to do?
Pick her nose like she always does?
She got a free $315 million to sit around and do nothing?
I mean, in my personal opinion, and I don't know this for sure, but I didn't think that the Huffington Post was that profitable of an operation to begin with.
I mean, I didn't realize that it was such a profitable operation that, you know, they had to give $315 million, and this is out of stockholder cash.
I mean, this is stockholders' money.
I mean, it's sick, man.
And I know that Steve Case, I don't know if you were hearing his tweet.
He's the actual founder of AOL.
He actually tweeted after this deal was set, which it was set, I believe, last evening.
He tweeted right away that he didn't believe it was a good deal.
And of course, I'm paraphrasing.
But then he had to retweet because I guess somebody blew in his ear, and I guess he retracted that tweet of it being a bad deal.
You can't say that.
Horrible.
I hope that you pan out fairly well there, Goofy man.
You know what, Ghost?
That's why I listened to your show because I appreciate all your good wisdom.
And believe me, when I say you have wisdom, you have wisdom, sir.
And I'm a faithful fan now.
I was wondering if I could ask you a question, though, sir.
Go for it.
If I started making t-shirts with your logo on, would you mind that?
Or would you want your portion of the share?
Well, you know, I don't want to get into that, but I don't even want to answer that.
You know, if you start doing that, like anybody else, we're going to have some situations.
But if you really want to be interested in doing something of that nature, well, then, you know, hook me up with an email, ghostpolitics at yahoo.com.
But if you want to be doing something there, Goofy, you want to help the broadcast, which you should be doing, is going out there and spreading the word.
And as a matter of fact, everybody who's listening right now, please spread the word.
Blogtalkradio.com/slash ghost is the name to follow.
But, you know, if you make some t-shirts and you're making some cash, you know, I'm going to get my cut there, pal.
You know what I'm talking about?
I mean, I'm all about the money.
You got to realize I'm about the money.
I don't think you realize how much about the money I am.
I mean, tell them, tell me.
This country, you've got to make the money first.
Then when you're getting money, you'll get a power.
Then when you get a power, then you'll get the woman.
That's why you've got to make your own moves.
Yeah, you see what I'm saying?
So anyway, 646-652-4869.
Man, we're about almost 30 minutes into the second hour of the True Capitalist Radio Show.
I am your host, the man they call Ghost.
Once again, I want to thank everybody for tuning in with me.
Follow me on Twitter, folks.
Ghost Politics is the name to follow.
And also, bookmark the blog.
Bookmark and add to your favorites.
The official true capitalist blog.
I'm going to start updating that every single day.
I'm going to be giving financial advice.
I'm going to be blogging with the markets.
So if you want to make some quick plays as I'm watching the markets, as I'm playing them, as I'm seeing them, it's the best way.
Ghostpolitics.blogspot.com is the name to follow.
Or is the blog address, I should say.
Ghostpolitics.blogspot.com.
And check it out, folks.
I'm serious.
I'm going to go ahead and update that on a consistent basis so that folks that are actually in the market, all right?
I mean, that are listening in and that want some heads up or want some insight or some interpretation can get it.
And this is the way you have to be as an investor.
You want to get all realms and all aspects of different perspectives and ideas and interpretations and news and information.
It's the information age, my friend.
The information age.
Anyway, folks, 646-652-4869.
I think I'm going to take a little bit of a break here.
But before I do, what I'm going to do is basically make my contribution to Black History Month.
I've been playing black artists so that we can commemorate Black History Month and blacks' contribution to American society.
I know that people have been criticizing me as of late as if I'm some sort of grand dragon racist.
I resent that.
I am not that.
I am actually a very open-minded individual who appreciates all money, you know, and all money is green from everybody.
So it doesn't matter if you're black, white, green, whatever.
I don't care if you're gay.
As long as you got take, you got money, we're friends.
We can start talking.
It's the way it should be.
I'm not a racist, you assholes.
I know there's people in here saying, you're a racist, you liar.
I'm not a racist, all right?
And to prove that I'm not a racist, I'm going to put on a song.
To commemorate Black History Month, I'm going to put on a song that I have to listen to at least about once, twice a morning.
And the reason I listen to this song is because I do a little day trading from now and then.
I like to keep up with positions.
I have to be on the phone with certain managers of brick-mortar businesses that I have.
I'm up and down here in the office, man.
I'm doing a lot of things.
So I like to have music playing in the background.
This song, believe it or not, I have to hear it at least once or twice a morning.
It gets me pumped up.
It's inspirational, motivational music, man.
You understand what I'm saying?
Because I'm a capitalist now.
I'm not a conservative.
I mean, do you think I'm going to continue with this stupid program that the conservatism's selling with this whole Sarah Palin?
And it's okay to get pregnant when you're a teenager.
And it's okay to pose for Playgirl.
And it's okay to be some, you know, I don't want to deal with it.
Okay?
So what I'm about, folks, is money.
And it doesn't matter what political system's in power.
Any true capitalist can work around any government system.
To commemorate Black History Month now, I want to introduce everybody to a song that I have to listen to about twice a morning.
It's a song by a black, a black American citizen, if we want to be politically correct about it, and who's probably one of my role models.
And believe it or not, I got a black role model.
See, how racist can I be?
Because I got a black role model, huh?
How racist is that?
I got a black role model.
What do you got?
Huh?
Piece of crap.
Anyway, this is Birdman.
The Bird Man.
Well, actually, it's not the Bird Man.
It's actually even older than that.
It's even back in the day, even before Birdman, you know, produced solo albums, man.
It's actually a song that goes back to the Big Timers days.
And for you folks that don't know the Big Timers, well, I guess, you know, you don't really need to know it.
It's just some urban hip-hop historical fact.
But anyway, this is part of the big timers.
Birdman is the main featured rapper, which, of course, is my role model.
I like Birdman.
I think every black American should be looking at Birdman as a role model.
Now, if you can't properly interpret Birdman as a role model, and I'm talking to all the black young men right now, if you can't interpret Birdman as a legitimate role model, as a capitalist, as a die-hard capitalist, as somebody who's always on the hustle, as somebody that always has to make cake, as somebody that always has to make capital, and the only thing you can see in Birdman is, yeah, baby, I got to make a money, man, and being ghetto-rich or whatever the hell you're interpreting.
Well, then maybe you don't need Birdman as a role model.
Maybe what you need is Bryant Gumble.
Yeah, Bryant Gumble, I believe, is what you need for all the folks that are out there interpreting Birdman as some sort of, you know, right to go out and bust caps and pimp hoes and that sort of thing.
Black men in America, if you can't interpret Birdman as being a motivated hustler who's a capitalist, who understands, you know, what's going on, well, then maybe you need to, you know, look towards Bryant Gumble as a role model.
Bryant Gumble.
Anyway, 646-652-4869.
Bryant Gumble Role Model00:03:51
I'm going to go ahead and take a break here.
This is the big timers.
It's called the number one stun.
All right, the number one stun.
And let me tell you something.
I listen to this song at least twice a morning.
It pumps me up.
It's a baller ass song.
It's about indulgence.
It's about gluttony.
It's about capitalism.
It's everything ghost likes.
So let's put it on, baby.
Where come these fucking cars?
Niggas.
I don't want no introduction and shit.
Ride business around the city on buttons, your bitch.
All day and really singing, just fucking shit.
with engulfing.
Baby, drive beef bubble, we can call me with your flip.
Hopping out the platinum coming with the platinum grip.
With the platinum pieces and the platinum chains.
With the platinum watches and a platinum range.
Platinum round my thing.
Let's do it for the block, not hang and swing.
You don't know another nigga that can fuck like me.
I'm a motherfucker, nigga, like you with the knees.
I'm the chuckin' off of my teeth.
I'm the number one stunner.
I'm the number one thunner.
I'm a dove on cars when I ride and fly.
Does my star get rid of die?
With a crown on top, nigga, cook and cup.
You can buy a hold of rocks, nigga, hook it up.
Dragons on my horse beat when they walk, they fall.
Diamonds in my fucking teeth when I talk, I fall.
Don't fuck around with beef when it's thought, I fall.
Man, my hot boy creeps when it dark me falls.
Let's all knew about a middle.
The motherfucking drop of sleep sitting in the middle.
Man, I'm done reason, got a house out of water.
I'm the fucking bad bitch, bad bitch, bad bitch.
I like my big stuff, fan.
I like to fuck him in the ass while he beat up the book.
I'm the number one shit.
I'm a fucking die, bitch.
I'm a horse and nigga like we look for me.
I'm the number one son of the number one sonnet.
I'm the number one son of the number one sonnet.
Hold on, Wayne.
You know that's all on me.
But you know I know the new road for you.
I slow the new road for you.
Give me the keys, give me the weed, give me the G's, give me the backpand.
Let me see what came.
I need a big baggy.
Everybody gets the point.
Shut up, man.
Shut up.
I'm sure everybody gets the point.
All right, but the only reason I'm doing that, well, no, the only reason I'm doing that is so that the black History Month can get its contribution via the True Capitalist Radio show.
And that was definitely a black contribution to American society.
But anyway, 646-6524-869 is the number to call here.
Billion Dollar Pipe Dreams00:15:35
We've been talking a little bit about the markets, talking a little bit about commodities, how everybody's liquidating their positions in commodities and taking advantage of this big, floating La La Land helter-skelter market in the equities markets that we're witnessing here.
These gains that are pretty much unprecedented based upon a variety of different speculative factors.
I think they're over-speculation, if you want my personal opinion.
We talked a little bit about that.
Corn at a 30-month high, even though everybody was pretty much selling their positions from the gains made early in the morning on those futures.
Same thing with copper.
We talked a little bit about that, how everybody's basically liquidating their positions on copper later on in the day.
And, of course, gaining on this equities run.
But now we're going to talk a little bit about, oh, yeah, we also talked a little bit about advertising on the Super Bowl.
Yeah.
$3 million for 30 seconds.
And we saw the kind of unoriginal crap that they tried to shove in our faces as if we're supposed to be impressed.
As if this is supposed to be American creativity, American ingenuity.
Give me a break.
I mean, and before we move off the topic of Super Bowl advertising, I thought one was particularly funny.
The groupon.org or groupon.com, whatever the hell it's called, groupon.com little advertisement when you had Timothy Hutton narrating an intro of Tibet and talking about how Tibet is, you know, it's isolated and it's suppressed and, you know, trying to get into this depressing type situation about Tibet.
And then it just, like, right in the middle of that depressing emotional suck session, it just cuts off and says, but Tibetans make a hell of a fried rice or whatever the hell he said.
And it touched to Timothy Hutton in a damn Tibetan restaurant eating Thaibac food for heaven's sake.
Anyway, obviously the Tibetan people and those that are sympathetic to the Tibetan situation didn't find that very amusing.
And apparently Group On, which, believe it or not, I mean, just walked away from a deal from Google.
Google, you want to talk about money.
I know we were talking about Ariana Huffington cashing in on Huffington Post for $315 mil from AOL.
But did you know that Google was actually offering Group On, which for all those folks who don't know who Group On is, it's some stupid coupon type system.
I don't want to get into it.
They didn't pay for advertising.
But they actually denied a $4 billion takeover.
$4 billion to buy out Groupon.
They denied it.
They said, nah, it's okay.
I think we can do better on our own.
I mean, $4 billion.
I mean, this is not $315 mil.
I'm talking about $4 billion with a B billion dollars.
They walked away.
All right.
They walked away.
Groupon was like, oh, yeah, so we can do it better on our own.
Yes.
And they actually got a billion dollars in venture capitalist capital.
And this is what they do.
They put on $3 million of that venture capitalist capital and put a Super Bowl advertisement basically slapping the Tibetan cause in the face.
That just doesn't make sense.
It doesn't make sense whatsoever.
I mean, first of all, I thought it was stupid that they walked away from the $4 billion Google deal.
I mean, $4 billion.
I don't care how much your company, I don't care how much your company means to you.
I don't care how much you, you know, oh, my hands and my blood and my sweat and my tears went into this business.
And there ain't no way in hell that I'm going to get rid of it for $4 billion.
Are you kidding me?
Whoever the hell Groupon, the Groupon little organization, whoever the president is there, whoever's in charge, needs to get severely slapped in the back of the face.
You know, I mean, Ike Turner needs to be resurrected so he can get his pimp hand strong on Groupon's decision maker of not taking the $4 billion with Google.
Now look at them.
They look like schmucks now.
You think they're going to get any kind of profitability now that they're known as like some sort of Tibetan racist?
I mean, that was a slap in the face.
It was a slap in the face to all those Tibetan people.
They're getting slaughtered by the damn Chinese authoritarian rule out there.
It's a disgrace, man.
Unfreaking believable.
But hey, you know, $3 million, right?
Hey, some venture capitalist is out there, you know, probably punching himself in the head, you know, thinking that what the hell am I doing?
Why did I give these idiots a billion of my dollars?
Oh, Jesus Christ.
But anyway, I just thought that was a really funny commercial.
If you want to listen to it, I mean, I would strongly advise, you know, do whatever video search that you do.
It's an I mean, you think I'm racist.
You take a look at this advertisement and then come back to me and then see who's racist, you piece of crap.
All right?
I mean, bad business 101.
They're saying that's bad business 101 here in the chat room.
And you're damn right.
You're damn right it's bad business.
How the hell are you going to walk away from a $4 billion deal offered by Google so that you can walk away, get a billion dollars in venture capital money so that you can invest it in some damn Super Bowl ad that's freaking racist, you know?
Freaking racist.
I mean, give me a break.
Oh, man, we got some we got some pretty good news here.
Want to thank Goofy Bone for PMing me according to Goofy Bone here, which PM me up.
That's pretty good PM.
Thanks there, Goofy Bone.
Apparently, and this was just in the midst of me and Goofy Bone, if you want to rewind back to our discourse that we had.
He was the last caller.
I'm talking to the people that are in the podcast right now, not the people that are listening in live.
We were talking about AOL because Goofy Bone had 90-something shares in AOL.
And once he heard that, you know, Ariana Huffington and the Huffington Post received $315 million of his dollars and other shareholders' dollars of AOL, it just seems mind-boggling.
It doesn't make any sense.
I mean, you know, you got 10 times the earnings.
10 times the earnings?
I mean, in the midst of us talking, I was speculating, and I said it was my opinion, my opinion, that there may be some nefarious business activity going on here.
Because as I said prior, Huffington Post was initiated with a million-dollar investment.
Since that million-dollar investment, all right, since that million-dollar investment, they've had to invest $40 more million dollars, which was probably let to them or which was probably, you know, rounded up in some fashion through venture capital or loans or something.
Okay?
Now, I think, and this is my opinion, that somebody knew somebody or there was some kind of vested interest going on between two cohorts or two people or maybe a group of people that were circle jerking with each other on both sides of the fence, both on the Huffington Post and AOL, to make this deal even possible.
Well, Goofy Bone here said that the Huffington Post confirmed that co-founder Kenneth Lear is stepping down as the chairman of the new media company in the wake of the AOL's planned purchase.
Mr. Lear, a major shareholder in the Huffington Post, that's right, has a history with AOL.
He's a former AOL honcho.
Yeah, that's right.
Now I get it.
Well, anyway, he's going to step down to pursue a career in teaching, according to Goofy Bone here.
And let me tell you, it doesn't surprise me.
It doesn't surprise me one bit.
I mean, you know, I didn't even know about this.
I want to thank Goofy Bone for enlightening us about this.
But, I mean, you don't have to be a brain scientist to know that when a business deal doesn't make sense, there's obviously some kind of collusion going on there.
And you see, you've got the shareholders of AOL at the whim of whoever in the hell is the bureaucratic corporate structure right there and whoever in the hell they're banging at the Huffington Post doing this disgusting, despicable deal for $315 million.
$350 million for the Huffington Post.
It's a disgrace.
And as you've heard in this show, folks, there's a lot of people that own AOL stock that aren't really happy about this situation.
You heard him and I heard him.
I mean, who the hell would be?
This is their money.
People that are invested in this stock, this is their money.
And, you know, do you hear this as some major highlighted situation in today's media?
No, they're going to wait till you're halfway in the bed when you're about to go to sleep at the 10 or 11 o'clock news.
They're going to say, oh, yeah, Arianna Huffington.
She got $350 million from AOL.
In other news, you know, American Idol, it's a disgrace, man.
It's an utter disgrace.
And you see, folks, this is why I'm saying you've got to keep on top of your money.
You know, that's why, you know, when you want to go long-term on a stock, you better make sure that that company is going to maintain profits.
You know, you call those investor-relation people, man.
And if you think that you're being dicked around, you call the SEC.
That's what they're there for.
And if you don't call the SEC, because, you know, they get paid to overlook this crap, they're just going to sit back and watch pornography.
I mean, we all saw the records of the SEC's internet logs.
These idiots were sitting out spanking the monkey to pornographic material, for heaven's sake.
So that's why I'm saying, do not sit here and let your money just sit by, you know?
And according to Goofy Bone, here, he's selling his stock right away.
And I don't blame you.
I would be selling my AOL stock if I had it.
I wasn't even looking at AOL, to be honest with you.
You know?
I wouldn't have been even looking at AOL stock at this point in time.
I mean, Time Warner, even though it retracted today, I mean, it's up in profits.
And why is Time Warner up in profits?
Because they completely eliminated AOL from its repertoire of business model.
They just separated it.
It became its own entity.
And because AOL became its own entity, what happened?
Time Warner, we reported it last week, was up in profits.
Profits were up like over 50% or some kind of crap like that.
It's ridiculous.
And here you have AOL becoming its own entity.
And now they're buying a $350 million purchase, $315 million purchase of the Huffington Post.
Definitely something fishy.
You know, if I was a stockholder and if you take dramatic losses and there ends up being some validity behind some of this, I don't know, collusion between the Huffington Post and AOL, because it's obvious that there's something going on here.
I mean, my view, in my opinion.
I mean, it's obvious in my view that there's something going on.
You can't just, you know, I mean, how many people do you know are just going to give you $315 million for an investment that I don't even know if it's profitable?
I mean, I know that it's got a whole bunch of, you know, users and a bunch of people going and viewing the propaganda.
It's got 25 million hits, but based upon its advertising model, is it even going to be worth the $315 million?
You know?
I mean, are we even going to get Huffington?
I mean, first of all, has Huffington even sat on any kind of a board?
Has she ran any kind of a company?
Has she done anything other than making the Huffington Post, which is nothing but her name?
I mean, let's be honest.
It's just a stupid website with her name.
There's engineers, there's back-end people, there's IT freaks, there's all these people doing all the work for her.
All she's got to do, I'm sure she probably doesn't even have to type her own stories.
All she's got to do is say them in that stupid little weird-ass accent.
She's got all this stuff and that stupid accent, and somebody's typing them down and putting them on the internet for her.
And she's getting $315 million for this crap.
I feel bad for the AOL investors, man.
I want to thank y'all for calling up and voicing your disgust in this ridiculous, horrific deal.
And a couple of people are private messaging me and saying, yeah, this is what my stock guy told me to buy, AOL.
Man, fire that bastard.
Fire that bastard and Start investing on your own, man.
Start investing on your own, for heaven's sake.
I mean, why are you going to let some moron, you know, basically have your cake?
And this is what I don't get, okay?
Why don't you lose your money?
If anybody's going to lose your money, you should do it.
All right?
I mean, why are you going to let somebody else's ideas view it, you know?
Seriously.
I mean, I'm not joking, folks.
I'm sitting here trying to tell you folks that, you know, you, you are the key to your own destiny, man.
You could live large, and you can live large for not that much.
The problem is, is we're sucked into these suggested ideas by Hollywood, by MTV, American Idol, the media.
And we get into these ideas that we have to have certain things right now.
We have to pay retail prices for garbage right now.
You know?
I'm serious, man.
This is why I do this show, because I want all of you to be capitalists, man.
I want you all to be capitalists.
And I want you to show everybody that, hey, look, for all you people that are sitting there pissing and moaning, for all you people that are like, oh, my kids, baby, you're not understanding, baby.
My kids.
You need to give me money because of my kids.
Hey, sir, you carrying two bags.
I only got one bag.
I only got one bag of my kids.
Give me a break.
I want you all to show these people that the money is there.
Capitalist Mindset Now00:08:47
That's why we have immigrants coming to America right now making businesses, folks.
That's why they're starting to become the franchise owners of big franchises.
That's why they're starting to become the owner of these gas stations.
That's why they're starting to become the owner of these restaurants.
Folks, the opportunities are there.
You just have to take them.
And I know that there are some idiots like that asshole who called up earlier who's pumping and dumping penny stocks.
There's assholes out there that are saying, man, I can't do it, man.
You know, it's not fair.
You're selling people pipe dreams, ghost.
You're selling people pipe dreams.
I mean, it ain't going to happen.
It ain't going to happen.
It ain't going to happen because you won't make it happen because you're a lazy trick.
You want to sit on your fat ass and do nothing.
You want to do nothing.
You want the quick buck.
You want the quick dollar for heaven's sake.
It doesn't work that way.
You have to make money to get money.
Don't you understand that?
You have to save capital.
You have to save some capital so that you can make more capital.
Don't you understand that?
And I know that people hate saving their money.
You know, it's like literally you're asking people to pop their hemorrhoids, you know, with razor blades when you're telling them to save their money.
It's like you're telling them to burn their baby or something.
But you're going to have to save your money, you know?
And this is all there is to it.
You have to have capital to get capital.
And that's what I was telling that goof earlier.
He's like, man, it ain't fair, ghost.
You're just pipe dreaming these people.
Yeah.
You're just pipe dreaming these people.
I'm not pipe dreaming these people.
Hey, you put $200 a month in some blue chip stock for five years.
And if anything, the value of that stock, forget the dividends.
You know?
I mean, dividends are just, you know, in my opinion, are just, you know, adding to the capital.
I mean, don't even worry about the dividends.
Worry about the price of the stock.
Worry about the value of the stock.
Because in five years, after putting in $200 a month in a blue chip stock, you'll have equities.
You'll actually have stocks that you can use as collateral to get even more capital, man.
You can use that stock.
Stock is worth more to banks as collateral than actual cash.
So come on, man.
Good lord.
6466524869-207.
Are you there?
Yeah, dear.
Hey, what's going on, man?
I'm doing pretty good.
What you got going on today, sir?
Yeah, I got a question about communism.
About communism?
Yeah.
What about it?
You're going to hang up?
You got a question about communism, but you're going to hang up.
You want to know why you have a question about communism, son?
It's because I heard some rap music in the background.
It sounds like you're puffing on the magic dragon.
And communism seems like an appealing idea when you think that, hey, dude, you know, all I got to do is just like, you know, wake up and like the government will just give me money, dude.
And I'll just go out and like smoke Maui Wowie all day, dude.
And like get like, you know, do like waffles and like, you know, all the freezer food, dude.
I'll just your no dude, all I did, bread, beer, and dude.
And just all I got to do, dude.
That's all I want to worry about.
I mean, this is what America is thinking right now.
This is the majority of America, folks.
I'm not joking, man.
I mean, capitalists like us are a rare commodity in this society.
Everybody is a consumer.
And there's nothing wrong with consuming.
I mean, that's a whole part of being gluttonous, but you have to have the expendable income to consume.
These idiots are blowing half their paychecks on a Friday night bar session.
And I'm not kidding you, man.
I'm not joking.
These idiots are getting paid on Friday.
They're going to the bar in their work shirts and they're blowing half their check, you know, sitting there, you know, shooting shots of old chicken.
You know?
Instead of actually utilizing that money that they just blew at the bar, you know, sipping on watered-down whiskey and, you know, seeing some old trailer park trash bimbo delivering them the damn liquor when they could have saved it, put it in some blue chip stock, and within five years, they could have used that capital to get a house.
They could have used that equity.
They could have used those securities to get a house, a car, a business.
But people don't want to do that.
That's why people get all upset.
That's why, hey, man, you're selling them a pipe, Dream Ghost.
You know what I'm talking about to you selling a pipe?
But why don't you learn how to save your money, man?
Look, you don't understand, ghost, my kids.
My kids, ghost, I can't save because of my kids.
You know?
I mean, are you kidding me?
Who cares about your kids?
You know, I mean, hey, look, you're not caring about your kids by buying them an electronic widget or a computer or a violent video game or, you know, putting it in front of a TV.
You're not being a parent doing that either.
You know?
So this is why I'm saying, folks, I think that individuals need to realize that sitting back and being stagnant and not saving and thinking that things are going to continue the way that they're going to go, like they've always been, you're a fool, man.
You're going to end up like these people out here that are going to be begging for breadlines.
They're going to be begging for breadlines.
And I'll be damned if I'm begging on the damn breadline, man.
I don't know about you folks, you know, begging for a goddamn loaf of bread.
I'll be damned if I do that crap.
No way.
No freaking way.
No way.
Good God.
Anyway, folks, 646-652-4869.
We got two minutes left in this final, in the second hour.
We're approaching the third hour of the True Capitalist Radio Show.
I am your host, the man they call Ghost.
And once again, folks, I want to thank everybody for tuning in with me right now.
And before we move on into the third hour, I'd like for everybody to please take into consideration that we have sponsors now.
We actually have sponsors that want to be a part of the True Capitalist Radio program.

Let a real law firm get you out of a horrible financial situation.
If you can't get a loan, if you're saying, hey, Ghost, I'd love to go out and get a loan from the bank, but I got bad credit.
Why don't you get that crap fixed, man?
You can get it fixed easy, and you can get it from a real law firm that's been doing it since 1991.
All right?
One more time, 877-663-2171, Lexington Law Firm.
Anyway, now that we got out all the way, we're in the third hour.
The third hour of the True Capitalist Radio show, and I want to thank everybody for tuning in with me live.
We were talking a little bit about Super Bowl advertising, talking a little bit, taking callers.
A lot of the callers that are calling in are AOL investors that are not particularly happy with the news that we talked about in the previous hours, talking about Ariana Huffington receiving $315 million for her Huffington Post from AOL.
And a lot of AOL stockholders weren't particularly happy with this particular move.
And rightfully so.
Rightfully freaking so, for heaven's sake.
I mean, who the hell?
$315 million?
And we were also talking a little bit about Super Bowl advertising.
Christina Aguilera Flub00:15:59
But now I want to talk a little bit about the infamous Christina Aguilera national anthem.
You know, the Christina Aguilera National Anthem Flub.
I mean, are we getting down to the point now?
I mean, I guess as a conservative, you know, when I was a conservative, I would have just flipped out.
I would have just started throwing stuff across the room.
I would have just started just becoming belligerent, you know, punching myself in the head or something.
But now it doesn't surprise me.
It does not surprise me that these so-called role models that everybody looks up to, that everybody wants to be like, you know, these people don't know the national anthem.
They don't care.
You know?
I mean, they can't even add lib correctly.
It's the freaking national anthem, you stupid dumb blonde bimbo.
She's not even a real blonde bimbo.
You know?
She's not even a real blonde bimbo.
I bet you the carpet doesn't match the drapes, if you know what I'm talking about.
You know, she looked like, you know, some Michael Alec drag queen, you know, from New York City, 1989, for heaven's sake.
You know, I mean, what the hell is this?
I mean, what is the Super Bowl thinking?
Look, I know that they're upset that Janet Jackson, you know, showed her black titty to the national audience, and I know that they're still reeling from that.
I mean, you know, their ass is still bleeding from that crap.
And I think that we've had just about enough of the old fogies from my generation, you know, coming out there still thinking that they can rock it like it's the summer of love or some crap, like The Who and that old, you know, faded out Tom Petty and whoever the hell else they've had for the past couple of years.
But then they change it up.
Hold on, before I get to the halftime channel, I want to finish with Christina Aguilera because I think this is a disgrace, okay?
This is a broad that has so much influence, or I don't know if she still does.
I knew at one point she did, on our young children that they actually emulate certain stylistic characteristics of her to them.
And then to see this stupid, skanky, bad period-smelling bimbo get on national TV on the most nationally, internationally broadcasted event of the year.
She gets on there and ruins the national anthem, which is a basic pimp slap to all those people that were in uniform standing there on the field.
I mean, did you see everybody's face?
I mean, I think they went to the Green Bay Packers coach's face when she screwed up, and the guy's like, Jesus, let me not look too obvious that I know she's an idiot.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
I mean, but this is how stupid America's getting.
This is how stupid the American youth is getting, folks.
And I blame education.
I blame the damn public education system.
And it makes me sick that me as a property owner that owns multiple properties, that I've got to pay taxes to a school system that isn't properly teaching our children, let alone how to sing the national anthem, but learn how to understand things in a critical manner.
Interpret reality through cognitive reasoning.
It doesn't work like that anymore.
It seems like everybody's in a phase.
Haven't you noticed that?
I mean, you know what I'm talking about, right?
You're talking to somebody, and, you know, they're just like in some kind of a phase.
They're out there in some other world somewhere, you know?
And then after you finish talking to them, they're like, huh, what?
What did you say?
Huh?
Huh?
I mean, Jesus Christ, making sick when I slap them in their mouth.
Jesus Christ.
Anyway, I'm just saying, folks, it's no coincidence that Christina Aguilera, you know, Miss Bitchy Blonde thing.
And no, is it just me or is she getting a little fat?
You know, I was used to Christina Aguilera, you know, being some, you know, skinny, twiggy-looking bimbo.
You know, but now that she's put on about 15, 20 pounds, I mean, Jesus Christ, why don't you put down the tacos there, bitch?
Huh?
How about putting down the bean and cheese for a couple of minutes before you get on the most broadcasted damn event of the year?
You know, why don't you just trim down and put the fucking fork down?
Excuse my French.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to curse, but good God.
I mean, if you're not going to get the national anthem correctly, at least you can look good for us on the television set there.
Christina Aguilera, you stupid bimbo.
And I know, I know, she got a divorce.
Oh, like we're supposed to care.
Divorces come a dime a dozen nowadays.
Don't you know that 60% of marriages end up in divorce?
Big deal.
I bet she should get over it, man.
She's flying on private Learjets, all right?
She's getting delivered to events in stretch limos.
You know what I'm talking about?
I mean, you know, and just, I'm sorry.
Let me calm my ass down.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I know you're not making excuses.
I'm just calm my ass down.
The only reason that I'm saying this, folks, is because I feel.
This is how I feel about idiots that are in Hollywood or that are trying to sell their image or trying to sell their physical representation as a career.
I feel that if you're going to be on TV, if you're going to be in the magazines, you're going to be in the movies, you're going to be at award shows, you're going to be this sought-after physical representation by the mass populace, I think it's your duty.
I think it's your goddamn job to make sure that you don't look like some fat, portly piece of garbage or you don't look ugly.
I don't understand why we don't call these people out when they start looking scruffed out of the ass.
Why don't we just, hey, what's up?
You just roll out of a bottle of booze there, Christina?
Huh?
Look at you, huh?
A little Christie Alley bloated there, bitch.
What are you chomping down on the chicken wings late at night?
There you stupid, skanky slut.
I mean, why didn't somebody tell this bitch this, man?
Good God.
We're all politically correct.
We're all supposed to just care.
Oh, look at her.
She's suffering.
Man, oh, oh, it'd be a break.
Christina Aguilera and Britney Spear.
That's another slut.
But anyway, let's get off Christina Aguiler.
We all know she's a dumb, stupid moron that doesn't know the national anthem.
All right, that's just a testament to the work ethic and to the mentality of future of America.
So let's just go ahead and get off of her and let's go to the halftime show.
This freaking halftime show, they tried to shove down our hole.
And they actually passed this off as good entertainment in some fashion.
You know?
You know, they had everybody dressed in white as if it was one of P. Diddy's white parties in the Hamptons or some crap.
And they had all these old lights and all this little stupid special effects and all this crap.
And then coming out of the sky come the black-eyed peas.
Now, before we get into the black-eyed peas, I always wondered, you know, what's the story?
What's the exact story behind this group here?
I mean, you know, there's, you know, one ethnically ambiguous, half-Chinese, half-black, I don't know what he is, some guy that has the long hair.
We don't even know what he is.
Who knows, right?
Then you got Will I Am, which is, you know, some idiot that thinks he's the second coming of Martin Luther the King or some crap and, you know, trying to, you know, think, yeah, baby Obama, baby, sing the Obama song and all that crap.
Then you got another brother in there, you know, mixed.
I don't know who the other brother's name is.
He's got a weird flat top.
You got a, you know, I don't know.
You know, he's the other guy, the other black guy.
Yeah, Dreddy.
Yeah, Dreadlocks.
Yeah.
Then you got Fergie.
You know?
Fergie.
Now, you know, how does this group get together?
You know, I mean, I mean, I don't know about you, but I'm a realist.
Okay?
I'm a realist here.
I mean, in my personal opinion, when I look at Fergie and the Black Eyed Peas, I think that, you know, I think she's done them all.
I'm just saying, I don't know it for a fact.
I'm just saying that, you know, I'm sick of seeing in today's society, and I see it everywhere I go.
It doesn't matter if I'm at a restaurant or if I'm at a shopping mall, I see about four or five cocks with one woman.
Like four or five cocks just hanging around one woman, eh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh, oh, and, you know, in my personal opinion, and I'm just saying this, that the women who do this or, you know, put themselves in situations where they're being followed around by four or five hard legs, in my personal opinion, I think that the woman, you know, is trying to, you know, get her rocks off with all four of them and see,
you know, who's the better option both sexually and economically.
All right, so what I'm saying is that's a weird situation.
I I'm I I mean you know Fergie, couple of ethnically or one ethnically ambiguous guy, two black guys, uh I don't know, you know.
I'm just saying, I know people are like, Hey, hey, hey, what's that, ghost?
What does that mean?
A woman can't hang around a couple of black guys and not get banged?
Uh, no, she can't.
All right, pal, I'm sorry, call me racist, call me, you know, a bigot, whatever.
Uh, let me tell you, I've been in bars, okay?
I've been in bars where I'm just kicking back, you know, having a having a few beers, you know, and I've seen these black fools, you know, for lack of a better term, drunk as hell, you know, looking like ice cube from boys in the hood, you know, with their pants sagging below their asses.
It's last call.
They're drunk as hell.
They're like, man, I ain't got nobody.
I ain't got nobody right now, man.
I ain't got nobody.
So they go up to anybody that ain't been talked to yet, which is usually the fattest and the ugliest of ugly and the fattest of fat.
They actually go up to them and say, yeah, baby, you know, saying, yeah, and they will screw anything.
I don't mean to encompass all black people in that.
I'm not trying to be a racist, but I mean, let's be honest, folks.
Let's be honest.
Have you ever been to a black club?
Really?
Have you ever been to a black club?
Have you ever seen how blacks pick up their women?
There's no rap.
There's no like, hey, how you doing?
What's your name?
Yeah, that kind of crack.
No, no, no.
There's nothing like that.
No.
What they do is they just kind of grab the bitch by the hand and just start slapping asses and start doing the bump and grind and throwing their head down their crotches.
I'm not joking.
I kid you not.
I mean, there is a very, very forward race when being approached with the sexual proposition.
Yeah, some say, come on, bitch, you know, that sort of thing.
So I'm not trying to say anything.
I'm just saying, you know, if you're a female and you went to a black club, you know what I'm talking about.
I mean, they don't, you know, there's no like, hey, baby, how you doing, baby?
Yeah, there's no black jive going on.
They're just grabbing your ass and, you know, you know, trying to put you on the pogo stick.
You know what I'm talking about?
But anyway, I didn't mean to get on.
I mean, I went off on a racist, a borderline racist tirade.
I didn't mean to.
But that's what I interpret when I look at Fergie and the black eyed peas.
I look at one woman, a couple of black guys, some ethnically ambiguous Chinese guy.
I don't know where the hell that guy came from.
I mean, that's just a weird situation.
I'm thinking choo-choo train.
I'm thinking, you know, tag teams.
I'm thinking all that crap.
All of it.
I mean, what's the scenario?
I mean, under what social context could all these people come together and say, yeah, we should make a band, call this a black-eyed peas, and just yell on a microphone and saying, yeah, tonight's tonight.
Meh, meh, me, meh, I got my money.
Let's spend it up.
Hey, meh, meh, meh, meh, hey, man, shut your stupid, dumb, imbecilic shouting, no talent, having ugly, trans-testicle-looking asses up.
Shut up.
I mean, good God, man.
Could we have come up with an a more pathetic halftime show for a Super Bowl little halftime shindig?
I mean, could we come up with something any worse?
I mean, I thought the who was bad, you know?
I thought the who was bad coming out there singing a verse that they sang when they were like in their twenties and thought they were going to die young and crap, you know.
You know, that one line that goes, I gotta die young before I get old.
And yet they're singing this at 70 years old in the halftime of a fucking Super Bowl, I mean, excuse me, in a damn Super Bowl Sunday halftime show.
I thought that was bad.
But no, no, no.
The black-eyed peas, I mean, i if anybody tries to give them any credence for their musical ability, they should be severely beaten with an acme brick if you're giving any credibility to their musical inclinations.
All right?
And I think it's disgusting that the NFL actually approved this group as the halftime show.
I mean, what are we coming to, for Christ's sake, when there's no talent out there, we've got to use old has-bins that are, you know, in the attic somewhere, dust them off, get their clogged up colons cleaned and prostates back in order for them to put them on stage for a halftime show.
Or we get this disgusting piece of pathetic crap, Black Eyed Peas, which is nothing but a bunch of shine.
What were they wearing?
What were they wearing?
What do they think they were?
They're futuristic cyborgs or something?
Futuristic cyborgs?
I mean, did anybody see Fergie for Christ's sake?
I mean, what is that?
A trans-testicle?
What is that?
I mean, you know what I look at Fergie?
You know what I think of?
I think of Michelle Obama.
You know what I think of when I think of Michelle Obama?
I think, that's a man, baby.
That's what I think.
I'm sorry, man.
I'm just saying, look, I'm just saying, man.
I mean, you know, Fergie's up there.
You know, she thinks she's some hot crap.
You know, what makes her think she's hot crap, really?
I know she's a meth head, but what makes her think she's hot crap?
She's got Josh Dumel.
Y'all know who Josh Dumel is by any chance?
Anyway, he's the guy that used to be on Vegas.
You know, the sitcom Vegas.
That was actually a good show, by the way.
He was the head hunter, the head security guy.
He was McCoy.
I'm McCoy.
I get all the chicks.
All the chicks are trying to pull the balls out of my pants when I'm walking down the casino way there.
I mean, he played some hot shot anyway.
Anyway, this guy is actually with Fergie, and obviously it's for the money.
It's obviously for the money because anybody who is getting any kind of an erection looking at this disgusting display of plastic, transgendered-esque look, you know, you obviously need to question your own sexuality.
I mean, obviously.
I mean, come on.
You know, give me a break.
Fergie Money Motive00:02:30
I'm sorry.
I don't mean, I mean, I'm getting heat from black-eyed P fans.
And if you're a Black-Eyed P fan, I'd like to hear from you.
646-652-4869.
I mean, I'd like to hear from you.
I mean, if you're a black-eyed P fan, I mean, how is this helping the NFL's image?
How is it helping its ratings for Super Bowl halftime shows?
I mean, on the contrary, I think anybody who's going to invest in anything next year, as far as media is concerned, they should invest in something that's going to happen during halftime.
They're going to dust off pieces of garbage like this.
I mean, what's the use of watching it?
I'd rather watch David Copperfield shit out Claudia Shippert out of his ass magically or whatever the hell that asshole does than to sit here and watch the black-eyed peas stumble around in stupid electronic LED gear, acting as if they're some kind of post-21st century cyborg, singing like post-fifth century singers from the Baroque period, for heaven's sake.
More like the deep throat period.
Fuck the Baroque period.
Excuse my French.
Anyway, 646-652-4869.
Want to hear from you folks?
I know we've talked about business throughout the past couple hours, but I want to hear from you.
What do you think about this halftime show?
What do you think about Christina Aguilera basically screwing up the national anthem?
What do you think about the Super Bowl period?
I mean, the Green Bay Packers, fairly decent game.
I mean, it was not too bad.
It was just kind of meh.
Everything was kind of meh on the Super Bowl.
Even the stupid advertising.
You know, I've seen funnier adverts, man, in past Super Bowls.
This is a joke.
At $3 million a pop for 30 seconds, you've got to be kidding me.
Anyway, I want to hear from you.
646-652-4869 is the number to call here.
Let's go ahead and take some calls.
111, you there?
Hey, Ghost.
Hey, what's up, man?
What's your name, buddy?
Not much.
My opinion of the halftime show, since the CIA is no longer allowed to waterboard, I think that they ought to make all the terrorists watch the halftime show.
I'm sure they would spill their guts quicker.
I much rather would be waterboarded.
Yeah, I hear you.
I think waterboarding is a trip in the park compared to listening to that crap.
And not to get off the subject, but they actually torture Guantanamo.
Well, they used to torture Guantanamo Bay inmates by playing MM music 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Linus Torvalds Linux00:04:49
Well, that's another thing, too.
I mean, rolling around in a Chrysler.
I mean, if he was really somebody, he'd be rolling around in an Audi A8 or something like that.
Well, you know how it is.
He needs some money.
He's got kids.
He ain't get my kids, is what he's going to say.
But I had a question for you.
I heard Goofy Bones call in and ask you about t-shirt sales, him starting up a business.
And you told him that you wanted a cut, but wouldn't that be anti-capitalist if you got a cut from his idea?
Well, no, you see, you know, you're trying to misskew intellectual property, you know, and that sort of thing.
So, you know, I mean, it doesn't really matter.
Hey, if you're successful, you know, more power to you.
Just make sure that you put blogtalkradio.com/slash ghost and make sure to spread the word about the true capitalist radio show.
But it's not anti-capitalist.
Are you kidding me?
I mean, you know, without these types of, you know, intellectual properties, copyrights, rule of law, patents, we wouldn't be able to have capitalism.
We wouldn't be able to conduct business.
We wouldn't be able to have the opportunity to protect one's own interest for their work and value, for their innovation and creativity.
Oh, that's true.
And I understand where you're coming from.
You know, if it was me, I'd be wanting to get my cut, too.
So I understand where you're coming from.
Yeah, you know, I mean, but I understand your point, too.
You know, you've got to ask these questions because, believe it or not, some people in their head believe this crap.
I mean, they actually believe that, well, you know, it's anti-capitalist.
It's not fair.
I mean, look at these tea partiers, for heaven's sake.
You know, look at these tea partiers, for heaven's sake.
These guys are out here, you know, pissing and moaning about, yeah, don't touch my Medicaid, no more government.
You know?
I mean, give me a break.
So I hear what you're saying, but, you know, inevitably, without the rule of law, without copyrights, patents, intellectual properties, I think that, you know, creativity and progress would be halted big time because nobody would want to create anything.
I'm telling you, no one want to innovate anything if they can't get anything out of it.
I mean, just, you know what a good example of somebody who gave out something and didn't get crap for it?
A guy by the name of Linus Tovard.
Do you all remember this Catman?
Linus Tollvard?
Remember this guy?
Guy was the creator of the alternative operating system in the 90s, and it's still prevalent today, and it's also prevalent within server systems, also.
Linux.
Linus Tollvard was the man who created the Linux operating system.
And he basically gave the Linux kernel or the crux of the Linux operating system out for free for anybody who wanted it.
I mean, it was a big thing in the 90s, man.
Anybody who was on the internet at that particular time, I mean, it was really a different internet in the 90s than it was now.
Now it's just a joke.
But Linus Tovard made this Linux operating system, and instead of trying to capitalize on it, sell it, he gave it away.
He gave open source, which means anybody who had the capability of recoding this thing and making it their own, they can.
And he got nothing.
And yet, look at how many Linux operating system companies created their own version of Linux, like Red Hat, like Fat Linux, like all these different versions of Linux operating systems.
They're actually making money and cashing in while Linus Tollvard is out there looking for a job somewhere.
He's shining shoes somewhere, this poor bastard.
He's the guy who created Linux.
You know?
He's the guy who created Linux and gave it out for free.
And is anybody giving a crap?
No, they don't even care anymore.
They don't even remember his name.
Linus Tovard.
Linus, isn't that Charlie Brown's friend or something?
No, you moron.
No.
I'm talking about Linus Tollvard.
I'm talking about the asshole who made a big contribution to the internet and operating systems and server software by creating the Linux operating system and giving it, you know, giving it away to people, and he got nothing.
So that's why I'm saying, you know, we need to, I mean, if you think that you're going to be, you know, Mr. Nice Guy and just, oh, yes, I'm going to give away my invention to free for everybody.
Linus Torvalds Forgotten00:05:19
Everybody will remember me to the end of time.
I'm going to give it all.
Let me give it to you.
Yeah, yes, you'll give me.
You get nothing.
You know?
You get nothing.
That's why I'm saying you got to in, you got to capitalize on anything you do, innovative, creative, or speculative.
I mean, you've got to capitalize.
That's a call to all capitalists out there.
It's not a joke.
You've got to take this serious out here.
You cannot stop thinking.
That's a problem.
People think they can just kind of take a step back and go on vacations.
You can't stop.
Anyway, I know I sound like some Gordon Gecko sociopath.
What, you know, tough titty, all right?
200, you're on the air.
Take off the paint once.
Baby, bud.
Baby, bud.
I love you.
I love you, baby.
I love you, baby.
I mean, good God.
I mean, you know, the same fruity ass, man.
Every show, man.
Every show.
Same milky liquor, man.
Jesus Christ.
Probably eating dick snot as we speak now.
Excuse my French.
Good lord.
Anyway, 6466524869.
We got about 35 minutes left in the program.
I'm going to take a quick break.
But before I do, what I want to do is introduce some rock into the equation.
I know that the people were in here kind of taken back by some of the yo-yo yo stunting number one stunner and yay and you know yeah All that Black History Month stuff.
But now, this is something I like a little bit.
My son used to listen to these cats.
Now, I don't know what the hell he's listening to, but he actually used to listen to these guys back when there used to be the grunge movement.
I don't know if y'all folks remember the grunge movement, but the grunge movement was the last legitimate contribution to music, in my personal opinion, to actually truly impact society through an organic fashion.
You know?
So, without further ado, I want to introduce somebody from the grunge movement because, like I said, I used to hear this stuff out of my son's damn room, and I started getting into it because it's some hard-ass rock and crap.
You know, I'm talking about some hard-ass rocker stuff.
I'm talking about Alice in Chains because I'm a sick man.
Put it on, Jelly.
Alice in Chains, sick man.
Oh, yeah.
Sublaine Staley, man.
What the hell am I looking at?
One day that seasick males.
Sick man, sick man, sick.
I can feel the wheel, but I can't still when that comes out big and fear.
What's the difference I'll share?
What a miserable world of men.
What the hell am I from inside?
War of being surprised, these sick mans.
Sick man, sick man, sick man.
I can't see the end, get it.
I won't rest until my head is fair.
And what's the difference I'll dance world of mine?
Walking Growing Great Kill00:11:27
I walk for a while, growing great.
Kill.
You see the.
Let's just take it off there.
Let's take it off.
Anyway, folks, I want to thank you for tuning in with me.
It was just a little break I had to take there.
Stretch out the old body there.
Take a couple of shots of some cheap bottle of hooch and get a little loose.
Get prepared for a happy hour.
You know it, and I know it.
As a matter of fact, it's Monday, so out here in Austin, Texas, I'll go ahead and start off on West 6, but I might take a cab down to East 6 with all the college kids over there.
Because believe it or not, out here in Austin, Texas on 6th Street, man, it's literally dollar, $2 drinks.
You call it.
You know, you call it East 6th Street.
You call it dollar, you call it, man.
A Corona, you know, a shot of Johnny Walker, Crown and Co., Crown and 7.
Dollar, you call it, man.
I just love it.
I love it.
Unfortunately, a lot of the kids, you know, they like to drink that schnapps crap.
You know, because I actually intermingle.
You know, I mean, believe it or not, I'm actually have a pretty good social life.
You know what I'm talking about since I've moved out here to downtown Austin?
I mean, I'm actually going out.
I mean, I like to be social now.
I like to go out and walk around the downtown area, man.
And it's safe out here.
The only thing you have to worry about is a damn bum coming up to you for some damn change.
You know, but you know, you shoot them away with a or something like that, and they go usually go away or something of that nature.
But man, I mean, it's just, it's great.
It's just, it's, it's a beautiful place, man.
If you ever come down here, look me up.
Ghost is in the house.
I'm usually out there on one of these places.
I'll go.
I like to go to Congress too.
Congress ain't too bad.
But man, 6th Street, all right, especially the West 6.
If you're somebody who doesn't want to be around like Riffraft, West 6th Street, you know, West 6th Street is the place to go.
But if you want, you know, some live action, you know, some, you know, maybe a bum coming in every now and then with some college kids, some drunk whores, you know, flashing their boobs and, you know, dancing on tables and stuff like that, you go to East 6th Street.
Oh, yeah, are you kidding me?
I mean, I've been married.
I'm still married, you know, even though I'm not a conservative anymore.
I still love my wife and greatest woman on the face of the planet.
But whenever I take her out here, she don't like going to East 6th Street, man.
They're pretty wild out there.
I like some of them rooftop bars that you can go out.
I think Maggie Mae's pretty good rooftop bar.
He kind of gets kicked back.
You're sitting, you get to smoke a cigar out there, drink a couple of drinks, overlook 6th Street, and actually see all the bimbos, man.
It's like 30, 40 degrees outside.
These bimbos are out here with shorts one inch away from snatch and with cut-off shirts like showing their damn belly buttons.
And it's like 30, 40 degree weather, man.
Anyway, people are saying, hey, do you still look at the menu?
You know, look, man, I'm an honest man.
I'm one who understands that you can't ruin a good thing.
You know, you can't have everything you want.
You have to understand how to tame your primal instincts.
You know, your primal instincts is to go out and, you know, when you see some hot piece of tail showing off her, you know, assets, for lack of a better term, you want to go out there and be some animalistic monkey, some spider monkey getting in the back of her and doing whatever you do.
But you don't want to do that, man.
It gets you into big-time trouble.
Just ask Charlie Sheen.
Just ask all these other players, these quote-unquote players out here.
They've got faux five kids from faux five different women.
And they're being stretched from four or five different directions in child support.
I'm telling you, I would really consider before you go out and start pounding on broads to make sure you either got a vasectomy so that you can't produce any children.
And secondly, make sure that you know that there's going to be enough people around you and seeing this bimbo all over you for her to not cry rape.
And believe it or not, crying rape is something that these bimbos really like to do nowadays.
And this is just a little insider for you young gentlemen that are out there conducting yourselves in the sexual playground that is the social landscape of America.
I strongly advise you to watch out for the rape cases.
And how do you get a rape case?
Well, I'll tell you.
You give some woman the BS, you give her the big spiel.
You give her the big rap, the lines, like, hey, baby, what's up?
Is your dad a terrorist?
Because you'd a bomb, baby.
You know, stupid shit like that.
You know, let's say you feed her all.
You lie to her.
You say that you're a big baller.
When you know you're not a big baller, you know, that's anybody who's a man knows that the big baller routine is the typical cliche way of getting some bad bimbo to look your way.
But inevitably, once they realize that they've been lied to and you take them to your apartment or wherever the hell you live, if you take them to your shitter, you know, and you try to justify it in some fashion by saying, oh, well, you know, I'm going through a divorce or whatever.
All right.
Inevitably, if you fulfill penetration that night and they realize that they've been goofed and you're not a big baller and you're not Some big economic player, that's when rape cries in.
You know, oh my God, I got taken.
I thought I was going to get taken on trips.
I thought I was going to get my coach purse paid for.
I thought I was going to get my adulcey Gabbana glasses this week.
This guy ain't worth nothing.
And I let him penetrate me.
Oh, hell no.
Rape, rape, rape.
You know?
I'm serious.
That's how it is, man.
I mean, if you think I'm lying, you wait and see, all right?
You wait and see.
And let me tell you, women that are overly aggressive, too.
Women that are over, you've got to watch out for them bitches, too, because there's always a motive.
Don't be fooled, gentlemen.
And the same with the ugly chicks and the fat chicks, too.
Don't be fooled when you've got somebody, when you know you're a little fat in the ass, when you know you don't look like Brad Pitt, you know, when you know that you don't get natural, you know, flirtatious attention on a consistent basis.
Don't be fooled by somebody overtly just, you know, coming on to you, just like, oh, my God, dude, please.
I mean, I mean, there's always an ulterior motive.
Always.
And you better get down to it.
Those are the ones that you really got to worry about.
You know, these overt, you know, just, you know, oh, I just, I just love you.
I just think you're so funny.
Because they may have a misinterpretation of who you are, how much you make, your position in life.
It's just a disgrace.
I'm sorry to get off on that tirate, folks, but seriously, man, you know, don't screw yourselves.
The worst thing you can do to screw up your financial position, the worst thing you can do is have kids.
I'm telling you.
And you can sit here and say, oh, go stats up.
No, I can't.
How can you say that?
Boo!
Well, you know what?
Why don't you tell that to all the people that are pissing and moaning right now that they can't maintain their financial obligation?
Because, oh, my kids, baby.
My kids.
I can't take my bills.
I can't do it because of my kids.
I mean, I've said this story time and time again, folks.
Let me tell you.
I mean, this woman, and I almost want to take, I think I might have that on surveillance camera, believe it or not.
The incident that I've been talking about where the woman comes in, she gets something from one of my brick-mortar businesses.
I actually have some businesses here in Texas.
She gets some product, and it says $10 on the retail ticket.
She comes to the counter, and she's actually trying to negotiate.
Like she's some Arab trader from the Middle Ages or some crap trying to trade spices to the Europeans.
She's like, oh, yeah, baby, see, this says $10 here, but let me tell you, I got $4.
I got $4 right here.
I give you $4.
You give me this right here, all right?
And I'm like, no, ma'am, you're going to have to pay for that, you know, retail product.
I mean, it says $10.
You got to pay $10.
And then, you know, what does she go?
Negotiating Retail Prices00:04:08
My kids.
You're not understanding, sir.
You're not understanding.
My kids.
My kids.
I've got to give you $4 here.
So I give you this, babe.
And you can give me my phone.
I'll give it to my kids.
And I'm like, no, no, no, just calm down, please.
You know, you need to pay the $10.
But you're not understanding my kids.
I kid you now, that's a true story.
And I'm going to try to look for that footage so that I can post it on YouTube or something.
Because I know people are thinking that I'm just BSing.
As a matter of fact, I posted a YouTube clip on the website, blogtalkradio.com/slash ghost.
If you scroll down, I actually put a clip.
It's rather funny, yet a test to our society.
It's called Popeyes Runs Out of Chicken.
And it's an actual news clip from an actual news organization in, I believe, upstate New York, if I'm not mistaken, that basically had to go and report a story about how Popeyes, when advertising the 8 Piece 499 special, just ran out of chicken.
You know?
And, you know, I just would like people to view that and just to get a good whiff of what's going on here in America.
Now, I know there's people in the chat room saying that all those people were black in the interview.
Well, look, folks, I have no control over that.
I'm not the editor.
I'm not the gatekeeper of information out there at that news organization, so forward all the racist comments to him.
I'm just saying that that particular segment, that particular news segment, encompasses not just black America.
It encompasses all of America.
All of America.
I mean, not just black people.
I'm talking white trailer trash.
I'm talking about Mexican Vato Loco pieces of garbage.
You know, black trash.
I'm talking about Chinese trash that's coming out here trying to shove chopsticks up our asses to get fortune cookies.
I'm talking about Italian WAP trash, which has become real prevalent too.
You know, real Italian.
Hey, how you doing over here?
Hey, look at me.
I'm Vinny.
Hey, I'm from the Jersey Shore over here.
Hey, oh, hot tub.
Hot tub.
You know, hey, let me, hey, look at this broad over here.
Come over here.
I got two broads over here.
Hot tub.
Yeah, look at me.
I mean, get there.
Shut your stupid, dumb idiot meatball sucking ass up, you stupid cannoli up the ass having idiots.
I mean, aren't the Italians a little ashamed of this Jersey Shore nonsense?
I mean, you know, I hear some Italian people kind of bitching, but for the most part, you have Italians embracing this crap as if, hey, it's about time they start knowing about our heritage.
You know what I'm talking about?
It's how we live over here.
You know what I'm talking about?
You know, Jersey.
We from the old Jersey over here.
You know what I'm talking about?
I got big bulls.
All right.
They call me Paulie D.
I got big balls.
They call me a situation because I got big balls up in here.
You know what I'm talking about?
And we got other, you know, we got other broads over here that are involved, you know, that know how to lick Italian bulls.
I mean, shut your mouth.
I mean, did you know that 7 million people watched, what was it, the most recent episode of the Jersey Shore?
7 million people watched a group of WAP kids make jackasses out of themselves in drunken stupors.
You know, this is American entertainment here where we got meatball eating Mario Brother pepperoni up the pizza and having assholes, getting on camera, you know, shooting shots of Prosecco or whatever the hell these damn idiots are drinking.
And they're sitting over here, you know, making asses out of themselves.
Seven Million Watched Jersey Shore00:02:55
And this is, you know, primetime television for American.
I mean, yeah, Jesus Christ.
I'm serious, man.
I mean, I don't know what else to say.
But I'm the bad guy, right?
I'm the bad guy.
111, are you there?
Yankee, Himyghost.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Go go to a Michael Alec party, please, all right?
I bet you Freddie Mercury's waiting for you over there too, huh?
Maybe you and him, you know, get some, you know, some dildos made out of Liberace's fists.
And I'm just enough.
Anyway, we've got about 15 minutes left in the program, folks.
And once again, I want to thank everybody for tuning in.
Please spread the link around like wildfire, folks.
BlogtalkRadio.com/slash ghost.
And of course, add me to your favorites, to your bookmarks.
And follow me on Twitter for heaven's sake, man.
I mean, you know, I laugh every time I put on some controversial tweet.
You know, like I say something about somebody that, you know, one of the people that are following me doesn't like, and then they take me off of their goddamn little following session.
So, you know, follow me on Twitter, man.
Ghost Politics.
You know, I try to keep up to date.
I try to give market insight as the market's going.
I'm also giving market insight on my new blog, which is the same blog, of course, ghostpolitics.blogspot.com.
And, you know, spread those links around, man.
Tell everybody about the True Capitalist Radio Show.
We're doing this five days a week.
All right, 4 to 7 p.m. Central Time.
And let me tell you, I'm not going to sell out.
I'm not going to sell out.
I mean, what I'm doing here is basing my whole little operation, which used to be a hobby, which now I've invested a little bit of cake in, the advertising model.
So for the folks that are listening in, please hook up the advertising.
If you see anything on any of the advertisements that are on any of the True Capitalist Radio content or the Ghost content, check out some of those adverts.
Check out one of those adverts.
You know what I mean?
And you'll be helping out the True Capitalist Radio Show sustain itself.
And you'll be helping out the continuity of this show.
But anyway, I'm going to take some more callers here.
So if you want to call in, let's just consider this radio graffiti.
You can call in and say whatever the hell you want to say.
And maybe somebody will give two rats asses.
Sponsorship Advertising Appeal00:06:01
I don't know.
Stop tickling your ass and get on the horn and call.
646-652-4869.
000.
You there?
Yeah, Ghost.
What's up?
Hey, what up, man?
Not much.
I love Jersey Shore, man.
You are a racist, man.
You are a true racist, man.
I'm a racist.
I'm a racist because I don't like Jersey Shore.
Yeah, how could you not like Jersey Shore?
There's a bunch of stupid WAPs getting drunk and taking turns wanging each other.
Okay.
Are you Italian or something?
Are you getting offended at the fact that I'm just not embracing a whole bunch of WAPs having drunken orgies with each other and calling it entertainment?
Hey, hold on.
I want you to meet me, my friend.
Yeah, this piece of crap is gone.
Anyway, 207, you're on the air.
Very good, 207.
Oh, yeah.
Here we go.
An old rap I did.
We know.
Everybody look, all right.
Check it out.
We know, we know that's the old rap that I used to do.
It's the old rap song, you know, not really the old rap song.
Man, that was like an episode when I just decided to bust a flow out of nowhere, put on some birdman stunting like my daddy beat and just started flowing off the head.
And I want to thank you for bringing that up because, you know, I see that on YouTube.
And, you know, it kind of brings a little bit of a tear to my eye, man.
Reminiscent of old memories.
Memories in the corner of my mind.
I'm rapping about.
You know, all that.
Anyway, that's enough.
Let's go on.
200, you there?
Yeah.
Hey, ghost.
How you doing?
What's up, man?
Hey, I just got one thing to say to you.
Never going to give you up.
Never going to let you dare to.
Never going to marry you.
Goodbye.
There we go.
Break dishes.
What?
Break some dishes.
Break some dishes.
I'm in my office.
I can't do that anymore, man.
You understand that?
I sold off my house in the middle of Leander in the outskirts of Austin where I could scream like a damn madman and start throwing stuff around a room without somebody calling up for a potential domestic violence case.
You know, I'm in the middle of Austin, Texas now, man.
This is my office.
I mean, down the street over there is my condominium.
If I do that in the condo, these idiots down the hallway will start calling the Rape Crisis Center or some crap.
And before you know it, I'm going to be on the air while Austin PD's knocking down my goddamn door, asking what in the hell am I doing in this damn place?
I mean, there's just no way I can do it.
As a matter of fact, what I've been thinking about doing, though, I've been a little concerned about smoke detectors and stuff.
In Austin, Texas, you can't smoke indoors any longer unless you're in a humidor type of place or somebody who just specializes in smoke like a cigar shop, that sort of thing.
I've been considering smoking inside my office.
I pay a lot of goddamn money to be here each month.
I just paid this last month's rent.
I pay a lot of goddamn money to be in here.
I don't understand why I can't just blaze up a cigar, some Opus X, or better yet, a blunt, a Philly blunt.
I've been considering scoring some wacky tobacco out here.
I mean, just between you and me, folks, it's just the last couple of minutes of the episode.
Wacky tobacco out here, for lack of a better term, everybody's got it.
I mean, everybody's got it.
They're kind of passing it around to each other out here in the clubs and in the bars on 6th Street.
And then you've got idiots coming up to you saying, hey, what's up, man?
You want some of this?
I got some Northern Lights here.
I got some Northern Lights.
Yeah, I got some killer stuff.
All this crap.
I'm considering replicating what I did when True Conservative Radio was around in episode number 147.
I'm considering doing it again.
The only thing I'm concerned about is an alarm going off or some kind of a smoke alarm because if it goes off here, It's probably going to go out throughout the whole building.
And, you know, I don't want to be the asshole that, you know, basically throws on the alarm for the entire building because I decided I want to either blaze up an Opus X or a Cuban cigar or better yet, some orange purple Kush or something.
You know, either way, I don't know.
I'm not saying anything.
Nothing else.
Anyway, we got seven minutes in the broadcast, folks.
Let's take some more callers.
610, you there?
Yeah, this is the Black Conservative.
Just had a nice dinner and wanted to say thank you very much for the show.
You were my entertainment while the children was eating, and we had a fine steak dinner and had a very nice couple of drinks.
Skechers Short Play00:06:33
And here's to you, my good friend, Mr. Goat.
Well, thank you, Mr. Black Conservative.
I want to thank you very much for calling in and listening into the program.
You know, I mean, I know that we may differ on a conservative issue.
I'm no longer a conservative, but as long as you're a capitalist, it doesn't matter what your political views are.
I'm no longer political.
I'm just about making cash, making money, and that's all there is to it.
I mean, making cash and money.
I mean, that's all I care about.
I mean, every time I look out into the social landscape, I look at what people are wearing.
Oh, yeah, and speaking of which, I'm going to give a last stock tip.
Everyone look at Skechers, the shoe company.
All right?
Yeah.
Skechers, the shoe company, their revenue should be coming in.
And the reason I'm saying that is because I think they had a pretty good quarter, given the fact that we've had a lot of economic data stating that retail sales for the month of December was, you know, as a whole, fairly decent.
So as a retail play, I would suggest considering or looking into Skecher's shoe maker or shoe manufacturer, whatever the hell they call it.
You know what I'm talking about.
It's those stupid shoes that look like moon boots that are supposed to make you have a better ass.
The people that manufacture those things.
Anyway, I think that it's a good short play, at least for the next month or two, once earnings are out.
I think it's a good short play for anybody that got burned, specifically those AOL stockholders that got burned by the Ariana Huffington $315 million purchase.
And I know that we had a lot of AOL investors calling up asking what they should do.
And I'm sorry.
Believe me, I'm sorry.
But once again, if you're going to keep the AOL stock, call the investor relations and see what the hell their explanation is.
As I alluded to, and apparently as the news is developing, I've alluded to the fact that I think that there was some kind of collusion between individuals within both companies to establish such an unorthodox and uncapitalistic deal for $315 million being put forth into Huffington Post,
which, you know, like I said, according to the reports, it's 10 times its earnings.
You know, so why are you going to give something 10 times its earnings, and I don't even know if the damn thing's profitable for that matter.
So for all the folks that called in from that are AOL investors, I'm sorry.
I'm not trying to scare you here, but I mean, you know, this is just an obvious blunder, if you want to call it that.
I mean, you know, I don't even want to call it a blunder.
It sounds to me like somebody owed somebody a favor.
It sounds like some collusion.
That's what it sounds like to me.
That's my personal opinion, folks.
I mean, that's why I said if you're an AOL stockholder, I would be livid.
I would be calling the damn stockholder hotline right now and telling what the hell do you think you're doing with my money.
It's my money, you idiot.
I'm going to give it to Ariana Huffington for producing this liberal propaganda-based website for $315 million?
I mean, it doesn't make any sense.
I mean, you know, once again, the initial investment in 2008 to bring up this website was $1 million.
Since then, they've taken on another $40 million in financial obligations, whether it be through venture capital or through loans.
And I don't know.
I mean, yeah, okay, it gets $25 million impressions a month, but where's the capital is what I'm saying?
Where's the beef?
408, you there?
Yeah, I'm here, Ghost.
Goofy Bone.
Hey, what's going on, Goofy?
Thanks for letting us know that there is a little bit of evidence that there is some sort of collusion between AOL and Huffington Post.
Yeah, you know, my stock guy, I'm not going to put him on blast, but he told me I have to wait till tomorrow if I wanted to cash out on my AOL stock.
But he's over here promising me that with her on a board that they are looking to forecast maybe within two to three, maybe four months, that the stock is going to split.
The stock was up at $22, and I think $0.10 was the highest it gained today.
It was at noonish on the West Coast time.
So then once it got wind of Ariana Huffington's arrival with their dirty perfume, it went down.
It stopped at like $21 and I think 19 cents, I think.
I'm not sure.
And you know, Goofy, I would not, you know, that's a pretty hard speculation to buy considering that they're making such an unbelievable purchase of, you know, I don't even consider the Huffington Post an asset.
So if that's what your stock guy is telling you, I would second guess that particular move right there.
I mean, if you're going to sell off, I wouldn't blame you for selling off.
I mean, you know, holding on to a stock where it doesn't look like they're making pretty good moves and $315 million for the Huffington Post and then putting Ariana Huffington, who I don't know, I don't know if she was some CEO, you know, some board, corporate board member.
Not that I know.
I mean, you know, I could be wrong, but they're putting her in such a integral position in that particular operation for what?
I don't get it, man.
I don't get it.
So, you know, it's up to you, Goofy Bone, whether you want to stay or move.
Me personally, if I was in the stock, I would move.
And like I said, folks, for the individuals that are listening in out there for a small stock tip, short term, I'm talking no more than maybe a month and a half, two months holding this stock, or you can day trade it on the volatility.
Look into Skecher's Shoe Company.
All right.
I mean, right now it's at a very low point right now.
It's due for another spike.
The earnings should be very well.
We can tell from the economic data that the rise in retail sales did happen on December, and they're just about to announce their monthly earnings.
So I would strongly advise looking into that if you want a pretty good rebound play.
But other than that, we got 30 seconds left.
I want to thank everybody for tuning in with me.
