Oil went up, stocks went down…

Obviously, the American economy is controlled by oil, as I have previously posted.  The price of a barrel of oil only went up .52 cents to $70.85, which caused the DOW to drop 26.24 points in early trading. 

Reluctantly, I am going to start investing outside the United States.  Yes, that’s right, I invest in stocks, as well as own several pieces of property.  What’s a matter, you don’t think this Southern boy is smart enough to invest?  I may work for a lame Retail company (I was asked to remove that part of the story, for it hurt a few people’s feelings.), and I may also be an IT consultant, but I’m still a smart son of a gun. 

Assumption is the mother of all screw ups, yet people assume that I’m too stupid to talk, much less do anything else.  Never assume anything about anybody, for that is a dangerous proposition.  My investments, and family investment ties are the only reason I have not studied in Europe yet.  Allthough, I am trying to work out something with the family, so I can study at Queen’s or Reading University this fall.
