I voted < 50%, and I would love to be wrong.
I think 50% is the next try. And when that proves not to be enough the haircuts exceed 50%. Maybe 6 months out.
Hey, that's pretty good.
I predict it will be hard to disentangle the real haircut, as they will try to hide as much of it as possible by changes in terms. "Hey -- you'll get all your money back, just in 30 years rather than 2 years!"
My family and I moved from Macao, a city in China, to Canada several years ago, and I notice that our family and other immigrant families in Canada, is slowly moving away from our home cultures to Canadian culture. Chinese believe that only the males in the family can carry on the family name, since females take their husband’s last name when they marry. With this concept, Chinese parents tend to give more opportunities for learning to the son rather than the daughter. For instance, during my mom’s childhood she was told to help out with the housework when her homework was finished, while my uncle, her brother, was only asked to study hard all the time. As my sociology professor mentioned in class on Sept. 2002, culture is learned from role models, such as parents and media. My parents’ role models are their own parents, but when we moved to Canada my parents were influenced by other nationalities and began to treat children more equally.
