Personally I believe it's domino time As Greece goes so goes the Med. As the med goes so goes the Riviera. As the Riviera goes so goes Europe etc. etc. etc.

Greece is patient zero....you may quote me. The count down has begun. Some sort of default will happen unless the banksters continue with the ongoing global fraud and bail 'em out one more time. Bailouts, although still part of the landscape, are becoming a harder sell with each occurrence.

I was going to say that it's a country but that was not one of the choices. Let me know if I win anything.

May not be. The EU can toss out a country or two and still survive. If one of the larger players go then we are in a whole heap of trouble.

I do think it is the first of many. If is ends up not being the first, it will be because everyone will be looking and Greece and they will have forgotten about somewhere else. I think we have 8-18 months before it comes all crashing down. Prep wisely.

Definitely a domino ..... and I think Spain is going to be the next one.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

Greece is going down for the third time, Spain is a dead man walking. Italy is very sick, and France, Portugal and others have the same disease.
On another note, I just heard that India is about to have their bonds severely downgraded.....

Spain just got some bail out. It has started.

Spain -> Portugal -> Italy -> Collapse of the Euro? maybe Belgium or another country first?
