The interesting part of this to me, is these complex,virtually incomprehensible investment instruments were concocted by mathematicians and statisticians who redefined economic possibilities and probabilities to Las Vegas style packages for the masses.

We must find more of these wizards. But, they must be the few with a conscience, whose focus is towards the good of the whole rather than the coffers of the few.

We need Harry Potter, invisibility cloaks, moving maps, hogwarts (Newt doesnt count), and all things magical to reverse the course and the curse.

I must ponder this further while my brain cells are still soaked in the soothing and illuminating nectar of NyQuil.

LOL. I wish I had an plan.

I read somewhere how it used to be the sciences that tried to recruit all the great minds of a generation but now it's the financial sector.

Wizards with a conscience...if only...

Ah if only these wizards would use their powers for good instead of evil.

But the thing is the minute you begin to do good your powers start to fade until eventually they disappear completely.

It really a strange new world.
