The Financial Crisis: Where Do We Go From Here?

I love Roubini's no-bullshit analysis

I agree with vikramkrishnan. We need more "adademic types"

Ever notice that the 'acedemic types' don't really know much of anything? I guess those who can, do. Those who cannot, teach.

yes those who can do, that is the problem they did -- fucked us all. in the academia , with a proper scientific training one begins to look at things w/o relying on oversimplification and a complete appreciation of the problem instead of knee jerk reactions...

"f*d us all" -- seems like a bit oversimplification by an academic.

true, true... that was a spontaneous reaction of a grad research student who has lost funding and cannot find a job for no fault of his

Find a practical job until there is demand for yet another researcher, fresh out of college.

I have an overabundance of grad students applying for benefits from my government agency. We offer many of them simple jobs. However, most insist they are above the type of work we can offer them.

Too many public assistance clients blame their lives on macroeconomic events. There should be no reason a bright grad student cannot find a reasonable job to get through tough times.

I have no idea what they just said.

i've been searchin what john bogle has to say. he's a good bet on financial analysis
