With Oil prices going down, there may be a good chance that they could go a lot lower.  Perhaps even below $100 and that  is a good thing…

Which brings me to a bunch of items on the horizon for us as investors.  We have the worst rated congress in History, or in over 230 years which is really saying a lot when you think that we had slavery, scandal, deficits, wars and more to contend with and these boobs still manage to take the cake.

The Democrats got control and promised big changes and they are not doing anything, which is good for us.  By them not doing things, that usually means they won’t be raising taxes or trying to redistribute wealth or scaring businesses into leaving the country, so in actuality that is a good thing.

We have Uncle Al, aka Al Gore, who is still managing quite nicely to ignore that fact that Global Tempartures dropped a full degree last year calling for us to shut down our coal and oil industries here in the US and put several hundred thouasand people out of work and ruin millions of peoples retirement portfolio in order for us to all  go green in ten years.   Yea… sign everyone up for that one Al baby.

But on the good news front, we have Brazil and Czechloslovakia offering up some amazing investment opportunities as well as, and yes I am ringing that bell again, small businesses here right in the good old US of A.

While a lot of the country is hurting, there are many businesses that are flourishing and in desperate need of money to expand profits and grow.   The US still breeds some of the best Entrepreneurs on the planet.  Wall street ignores most, the VC’s won’t play for less than a few Million, the Banks are a joke, which leaves some big holes to fill and some great opportunities for the smart little investors like us.

I know I have promised this before, but I will unwrap the best way to get into this market here shortly.  In the meantime, just start asking around in your community to find out which businesses are doing well and need money.  Approach them, they will be estatic.  Use Virgin Money and some common sense to put together a deal and you are on your way and you will be helping the business, all of the people that work for them, your community, yourself and your portfolio!

Let me know how it goes!
