I check the share price regularly (along with millions of other people!) for fun to read some of the stock talk and for the enjoyment of sometime soon watching the stock crash & burn, something that I dont want to miss for anything! lol! and today I see a MASSIVE banner for ebid there! Take a look!

Why would you get enjoyment from watching people lose money? It is not just city fat cats that have money invested in stocks and shares. Average Joe's like me who have tried to provide for themselves rather than relying on the state to take care of them suffer also. I have been badly hit since 2000 with a sharp decline in my assets.

People who invest in stocks and shares provide the money to keep the business community running. That then provides the lifestyle that you enjoy.

The presence of theBid banner is great. The tumbling of stocks and shares is bad news for any investors and pension schemes. I for one would not want to see any business fail, no matter how much I have issues with its bosses. When a business fails, it is the ones at the sharp end, the workers etc who feel the brunt, not the already well cushioned bosses.

How odd, Astral!! Over here in USA that page is showing a big feebay advert right where the eBid one is showing up for you....weird, eh??

Nothing wrong with having shares, but if you are foolish enough to trade/deal in companies but not keep up with the markets then then people deserve what they get in my view. Survival of the fittest has been around since the dawn of civilization. One thing is simply replaced with another so no one really loses out. The course of ones life is up ( or down!) to the individual, and at the end of the day blaming others is time wasted. Sorry but I think people like myself and 1000's of others who have had their money caught up for weeks without access to it totally illegally by those Feebay/PPal thieves will enjoy watching it like I will.

Then, against my nature, I will try to take some enjoyment from the fact that you are suffering financial distress.
