    Default Is anyone else keeping an eye on the Greek elections?

    I'm reading sites like this one: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/d...tion-Live.html

    All that - if the Greeks pull out from the euro and trigger a debt crisis worse than the Lehman shock, we're fvcked - speculation has finally gotten me worried about what effect it might have here.

    I think it's VERY interesting but.... I think the Euro can survive without the Greeks and the Greeks can survive without the Euro... They got along without it for a few thousand years ne?

    I didn't realize until today but there have been a LOT of monetary unions over the years and almost all have failed.
    i think if the Greeks go the other way today then that could be the end of THAT very expensive experiment。
