    Sink every penny you have into China and make a million (as long as you take your money out by the end of the 2008 Olympics) :beer:
  • Yes that is an absolutely bizarre scenario.

    The Olympics - a sporting competition for individuals and teams to compete on the worlds stage once every four years, the absolute peak of acheivement for these competitors, 10 years of 365 days worth of lifestyle and training plans coming to fruition to qualify and then enter the heats with a small number making it into the finals.

    And meanwhile the host nation is busy saying look at me, look at me...

    Well I invested in Melchoir Asian Opportunities on 20th August 2007 - 13 days ago, and I'm showing a paper gain of 12% already!

    Maybe next year is the year to sell in May....
    If it takes a man a week to walk to walk a fortnight how long does it take a fly with tackity boots on to walk through a barrel of treacle?
  • You can always bang on the next London 2012 olympics game. It is at a place where every one of us are very familiar about. No one can invest on this tiny land better than we do.
