Let pretend that the stock market is going to crash in 3 months. I imagine all stocks would be worth less. what type of investments would withstand or flourish. I read that investing in the essentials would withstand. are there things other then stocks that would flourish during another great depression?

Tobacco and alcohol would be pretty safe, since people will be using them to cope with the bad times (even if they can't afford them).
1) Enter the ticker SH
2) Buy as many shares as you can afford
3) ???
4) Profit!!!

in all of human history, there has never been an economic crash where gold retained its value. why do you think people are selling it? because idiots like you think when the shit hits the fan, people will care more about some shitty yellow soft metal than food

you don't understand how the stock market works do you?
either the company is public and you can buy it's stock, or the company is private and not traded. It's not a matter of "knowing the right people." the stock is either available or it's not.

How fucking retarded are you? The post was about prostitutes - "investing" isn't necessarily buying stock, brainless moron.
When prostitutes invest, do they go long, or short? I think you already know the answer to that one.
