Alan Greenspan a couple of weeks ago...“sustained increase in consumer demand necessary for a strong recovery.”

Alan Greenspan yesterday...“more savings needed to boost growth.”

Erik,
Don't you get it... he wants us to spend every $$ we have, yet at the same time save every $$ we have... It make perfect sense.. when I am drunk...

I guess either option would be better than the other two which is the increase of individual debt (ie, spending the bank's money)or just burning your money.

I follow his advise to the letter! First I buy myself a toy, and then I'm broke so I have to save until I can buy another one...

Erik -

How about this:

I'll work on the spending end and you can work on the saving end!

How about if everyone here saves money by sending it to me to spend?
