If the "Great Crash" happens tomorrow what will you be doing?

[Marvelous]

You find out tomorrow the "Great Crash" is occurring, what do you do?

[ultimatevenom]

Why are you so obsessed with the crash?

Not obsessed. Just doing my part to breakdown the frontiers of ignorance. I think of it as a public service. Plus, it is fun watching grown men having hissy fits whenever the words "Great Crash" are uttered.

If that's you real goal, then I highly recommend taking a hammer to your forehead a few times. Then go buy every OS Annual ever produced, read them cover to cover, and then come back on here with some knowledge.

I dont see any hissy fits...

though obviously thats the reason for these latest threads of yours.

If the crash occurs tomorow,I'll play golf just like every Weds.. If it occurs two days from now,I'll be playing BlackJack in AC.If it happens over the weekend I'll be doing spring cleaning on the family bungalow.Not sure what my plans are after that but I'll get back to you.

nicely done.

Man you are like a broken record.

[Apotheosis]

Kinda like somebody else's sig line says... I'm waiting for the crash so that I can finish my X-Men run... not to mention getting some good deals on GA stuff that I want

[Marvelous]

I feel bad for those 2 guys that are going to make like Superman off the bridge. Other than that, the poll came out just as I figured it would where the majority of people are going to be buying if a crash occurs. That being the case, I don't think a crash will last too long if one does occur because there appears to be many people wanting to buy. How long can a crash last if the majority of people want to buy? Isn't a crash caused by most people not being able to sell?

Marvelous, others have made allusions to your low intelligence level, but you're only proving that by your complete misunderstanding of math.

 

Now let's look at the numbers:

 

We've got 28 respondents, and not even covering shills on the BUY side, there are a whopping 12 people who would NOT BE BUYING. Add in another two that would slow down dramatically, and only buy the odd true premium book, and we've got the following stats:

 

43% would stop buying

 

50% would either stop buying completely or slow down considerably.

 

50% would continue buying

 

And you think this spells good news for the comic's market? A potential loss of active buyers in the 43-50% range?

[Marvelous]

What it says Jerry's_Kid is that even if a crash happens...

 

A majority of 50-57% will still be buying.

 

32% won't be buying or selling which is a wash because they don't effect the market either way.

 

Only 3% would be selling everything.

 

7% will be getting rid of their crappy stuff.

 

So, the real number is that 50-57% will be buying and only 3-10% will be selling to some degree. Let me guess, were you the lonely person who voted that you would sell?

[joe_collector]

32% won't be buying or selling

 

 

Man, you're a real genius with the numbers, aren't you?

 

Let me guess, the guys jumping off the bridge will be reincarnated as hardcore speculators, right?

 

Did you even graduate high school, or are you another product of our horrid educational system?

[Marvelous]

JC you are such a dope. You are unable to master the obvious. BTW, I am waiting for the apology you owe me for doubting the Wizard First program and I am waiting on your proof that OSPG advocated investing in new comics over GA, SA, and BA back issues.

 

[joe_collector]

JC you are such a dope. You are unable to master the obvious.

 

You're the one who can't do basic math, but I guess in your Bizarro world, that makes you the genius right?

[blowout]

A majority of 50-57% will still be buying.

 

You think that only 57% of people who are buying now, will still be buying doesn't constitute a crash?

[Aman619]

what do you mean by that. I think you forgot that the original question was " when the crash comes, what will you do?" So by definition, in this scenario the crash already happened. capisce?
