Apologies for Downtime

I truly apologize to those who visited The Curious Investor today and were not able to make a connection. There was a rather scary outage at my usually good host. In fact, according to their blog, there seems to be some customers who may have lost their whole websites. It’s a real wake up call and I’m going to have to do some serious maintenance and backing up over the next few weeks to make sure that if something like this happens again, I don’t have to fear the loss of this website. The good news is that we seem to have emerged no worse for the wear and, hopefully, there won’t be another outage.

As far as any posting plans for today, I just wanted to draw people’s attention to this very good article entitled, The True Cost of Bailouts. It’s a quick FAQ/Primer on how the government is funding its various “bailouts” and what it will mean to our economy in the future. I won’t get on my soapbox again, but I think frequent readers of this site will know that I generally believe that recent government intervention has been necessary and will ultimately prove beneficial to all of us in the longrun.
