The figures being thrown around for the IPO for Facebook are reaching ridiculousness. $10,000,000,000? Seriously? Value between $75-100 BILLION? I predict a shitload of people or gonna lose a bunch of money or the typical Wall Street hypists are gonna be severely disappointed.

So will bailing out Facebook be the next too big to fail?

No, I predict the boys on Wall St are going to pack a pack wad of money playing the options trades on this.  

If only I had bought 1k of Microsoft at $36 back in 83/84....

I believe the insider language is 'pump and dump'.

When in doubt, throw a party.  Even if nobody shows up, you'll have a fridge full of beer and your house has never been cleaner.

Pffffffffffft.
Might as well buy yourself a $1000 dollar car.
At least then you can pick up chicks.
