Freddie Mac To Party On

By Bess Levin

Picture 335.pngToday’s obviously going to much worse, what with everyone’s grandparents suddenly being destitute, and Detroit falling off a cliff, and Goldman Sachs bracing us for news no one wants to hear, so let’s start things off on a high note, shall we? You might not be having a holiday party this year but guess who is? Freddie Mac! And why shouldn’t they, you know? It’s not like they don’t deserve it. Supposedly the soiree is planned for December 18, in-house so as not to draw too much attention, though I’m not sure why anyone would begrudge these people an over the top celebration this year.

    Choosing your investment is very complicated thus it is wise to check beforehand, as there are some stocks that don’t make for as good an investment as you might think. The Forbes list of those exact investments has come out, and the list isn’t exactly a shocker. AIG, Citigroup, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and GM are the stocks losing money at a frantic pace, and among them, GM is flirting with bankruptcy. This isn’t a shocker, as every one of these mega firms is currently great troubled, and went crying to the government about how they lost all their money. Every firm on the list had to get a personal loan from the taxpayers. It’s a subject of great speculation if we’ll get a return on our investment.
