American Fortune Life

"Son, you are amazing!"

At the door of the house, Andy hugged his knees and embraced Li Wanqing, who was extremely happy and proud, listening to his mother's praise, he was also very happy. After all, he can make his family proud of himself, which is definitely a very happy thing.

When I walked into the house, I saw Grandpa and Grandma, and it was natural to greet and chat, and then the family of five officially started enjoying a rich dinner at eight o'clock.

"Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for the sunshine and dew you gave for the rich food on the earth. Please cleanse this food for us and pray in the name of the Lord **** Christ, Amen!"

Listening to the prayers before meals by father and mother, grandparents, Andy folded his hands into a fist on the dining table, then closed his eyes and began to sit with his family and pray before meals.

"Thank the Lord for giving me food today. Ask the Lord not to swallow during meals. Ask the Lord not to snore after meals. Ask the Lord to let me eat everything to absorb and make me more healthy and handsome. Amen! "

No way, whoever keeps old Smith and grandma here is a tradition.

After drawing the cross, the crowd opened their eyes. Oston gave Andy a nasty look, and Grandma Andy just shook his head lovingly and smiled. Although Andy ’s prayer was a little funny, God still blessed him.

Old Smith also smiled, raised his glass, looked at Andy and said, "Let's raise a glass for Andy together."

"Thank you. I will continue to work hard to make money!" Andy raised his glass with a smile, thanking him.

Everyone couldn't help laughing at it, everyone was proud and proud of Andy's achievements today, and especially for Old Smith, the significance was even greater.

"... Seriously, grandpa, you suddenly issued a ban on short selling, but many people, including me, can't imagine how much I made less, hey." Andy still has a lot of complaints about this. of.

Old Smith swallowed the tender veal, took a sip of red wine, and said with a smile: "As a designated game, when Wall Street can't play, they must understand that what they should do now is to be obedient. "

Andy's expression was faint, his lips ragged, and he was helpless to whisper: "I have begun to sympathize with Paulson. He has always been in a nondescript position in the operation to save Wall Street. It seems that he has supreme dominion over Wall Street, but Subject to Congress, their status is at stake at any time. Alas, the debate about Paulson's actions in this financial crisis will probably never end. "

"Hehe, this is just the beginning, Andy. I thought you could write a novel like" House of Cards "and you should be able to see the essence of dc. It seems that I'm a little too optimistic, whether it's a financial crisis or not, No matter the financial turmoil, in DC, there is only politics. "

Old Smith shook his head and grinned, disapproving of his grandson's trance. "You can't get good reviews from the disasters that have been avoided. You can't run to the voters and say," Hey, things are really bad, but do you know ? If it weren't for me, the situation would have gotten worse! "No one has left a name in world history because of this.

Paulson and Bernanke's main plan is to apply to Congress for funding to buy distressed assets or inject capital into banks. Paulson worked hard to explain Wall Street terminology, but the president obviously heard the fog, but I know that the president and I have the same idea. As an elephant party who strongly tends to let the market solve the problem, the president Sen's and Bernanke's plans contradicted intuitively.

Rescuing those businesses on Wall Street exposes those involved in decision-making to moral hazard, makes innocent Nashui humans bear the consequences for greedy humanity and failed business models, and also potentially encourages the creation of derivatives that take huge risks to earn huge profits Because if the bet is lost, the government will come out to collect it. This is unacceptable to us, so on Lehman's issue, we let ourselves die, even if it makes the President Fei Xie feel uncomfortable ... "

"What about the aig group?" Andy asked back.

"The development of the situation is somewhat beyond imagination. The chain reaction does bring the risk of financial collapse. Once the financial industry is paralyzed, due to its industry attributes, the paralysis will affect all industries, and the unemployment rate will rise to a rare level in history. . No one can afford such a risk. "

Andy looked at a calm and calm old Smith, slightly tore his lips, raised his hand to surrender, reluctantly shook his head and said, "Okay, okay, then the next rescue plan, if the donkey party Declined? "

"For us, it ’s good to know that all the consequences will naturally be borne by the Donkey Party. In this way, maybe McCain can easily enter the White House. Unfortunately, neither Nancy nor Austrian Black Bull will be so idiot. "Old Smith said lightly, it seems that the calamities that companies that may have suffered for a century or two are not in his consideration.

Andy couldn't laugh or cry, he looked like you, dc is really a pit everywhere, everyone thinks it is no longer on the line.

"Okay, now, it's dinner time, don't take work home ..." Grandma Andy saw the grandson's expression, terminated the topic in a timely manner, and the family began to talk about relaxed topics.

Only Auston was a little depressed. Although he was very happy to see the evil son's appearance of eating crickets, he suddenly found that he had lost his sense of existence. The whole process could only be listened to honestly, which had to make him depressed. Hematemesis.

At the end of the dinner, In the living room, Andy and Old Smith and Auston were sitting on the sofa, drinking coffee and chatting. Old Smith even made some comments and some flaws in the second series of "House of Cards". supplement.

"In general, the content of Book Two is too dark, and the characterizations are more modelled. Although there are more reversals, the logic loopholes are larger. For example, Frank pushed Zoe off the subway to death.

For politicians, the risk of personal killing is too great, which is not in line with the personality of sophisticated planners. Of course, some people also have a habit of xing, but at least they must be pave the way. If politicians are like temporary pop stars and treat their subordinates as bones, he cannot mix in officialdom for too long ... "

Old Smith didn't speak in secret, but said his point very straightforwardly, "The most important point, Andy, no one here can always win, no one in your book seems to be able to It's comparable to Frank. How can this be possible whether it is the enemy, or someone who has been fooled by him, silly and used? Unless I will tell you, with a mentally retarded halo, you can make everyone think silly except yourself ... ... "

"噗嗤"

Oston, who was drinking coffee, didn't hold back. He just laughed and sprayed, and Andy twitched in the corner of his mouth. Okay, to save trouble, he just re-engraved it. Each plot in the play became The text is only there, and some unreasonable places will be considered for correction. Besides, this is a romance. Only seven points and three points can add drama.

"Well, I'll subject Frank to retribution and punishment. Even if it's not for the so-called" justice ", I have to give the audience a" stimulant. "Andy shook his head and smiled.

"Oh, I'll let you send me some information in the past. To be honest, some ideas really inspired me. I have to say that there are certain operations feasible." Old Smith said with a smile.

Andy blinked a little uncertainly, looked at Old Smith, and Old Smith smiled and waved his hand, ignored Andy's puppet, took out a document from the bag on the side, and handed it to An Dee said: "This is the latest decision of the Federal Reserve, you look at it."

Andy hesitated, looking at Old Smith and saying, "Do I see any problem?"

"Boy, I know the secrets better than you." Old Smith was directly smirked by Andy's questioning, scolded with a bad temper.

Andy shrugged and took a quick look at the file. The content of the document was once again decided at the regular meeting of the Federal Reserve ’s decision-making meeting to keep the federal funds rate, that is, the overnight lending rate of commercial banks, at the current%. This is undoubtedly beyond everyone's expectation that the Fed will cut interest rates by 0.25 or even 0.5 percentage points.

"It seems that the stock market is about to rebound tomorrow!" Closed the file, Andy narrowed his eyes, then looked at Old Smith with a smile and said with a firm tone.
