unfortunately according to this topic you need to be a "degreed business proffessional" to even be considered worth consideration.
Obviously you and I are not only unqualified to participate in this discussion but our toolbox is pathetically stocked with cheesey factoids which are in fact only the exceptions to established facts provided only by our resident degreed business professional.
On a side note, since he has no experience and explains his unemployment as being a "home maker" they quickly show him the door, THEN when they see his resume which indicates where he graduated they open it for him.
Are you saying that my fact or non fact information is completely ignoreable, and can be disregarded because of my lack of obtaining a professional business degree? Do I really need cetification from a recognized institution to make a sound economic/business decision, or can levelheaded common sense guide me?
It seems a little assbackwards, one pays a considerable amount of money to get a degree that says you are now qualified to make sound business decisions, but you have to work at that job for a decade to repay the money invested to gain the piece of paper that says you are qualified to make such decisions. Then there are those that are so proud of this assbackwards plight, that they wave said credentials in one's face at the first sign of adversity, as if these credentials are the endall to any discussion. To that I say, bite my ***, the infant stages of your credentials may have been the worst business decision of all.

Unfortunately that is understanding I have gathered from someone who has indeed obtained their professional business degree.

well economics is one field where anyone claiming to be an expert is most likely a fool, and as we know from economics class, he and his money will soon part.

he's canadian! he probably thinks austrailia pays their taxes!
actually austrailia has no foreign debt, along with a couple other european countries. even france has a 5 year plan to be debt free in 5 years.
