Daily Speculations

So Long, Farewell, CNBC Money!                                                                           

Our last column for CNBC Money was published Sept. 4. The site was our home for 3 1/2 years as we pursued what we finally realized was the impossible dream of helping the public escape its traditional role as prey in the ecological system of the market.

So long, farewell, dear readers, friends, goodbye                              

We're sad to go, but now's the time to fly.                                    

We've tried and failed in our quixotic quest.                                  

It's time for us to take our bows and rest.                                    

Goodbye, farewell, we hear the time clock's chime.                             

We've given you some meals for a lifetime.                                     

Jon Markman's edits were always top-flight.

If  any credit's due, he shares by right.

Goodbye, we fly, pursued by many bears.

They growl, they claw, they must defend their lairs.  

Remember, growth will always win the fray,                                      

In panics, buy; in up times, stay away.

Thanks for the e-mails; most of them inspired us

Good riddance to those who sent us a virus.

So long, farewell, we hope that you all thrive. 

Remember that the key is to survive.

The cycles change, and so must you and I.                                      

So long, farewell, dear readers, friends, goodbye.   

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
