I don't remember the quote or quatrain exactly, but wasn't there something about ,"They will skim the cream from the top"....I understood that to mean that at some point in the future, investors would be left holding the bag BIG TIME as the high rollers and those in the know would remove their profits at some critical point.

Could that be Y2K? Anybody remember that quatrain and the full text?

Just curious. Came to me this morning as I sipped my coffee and read about the DOW predictions come Jan. 1, 2000.

Hi, Ynott, if you like prophecies, here is another one. I don't know much about Nostradamus, but how about a more contemporary futurist? Gordon Michael Scallion came up with his Milios prophecies a few years ago, which state in part:

"The ten, standing with pomp and glitter, race to their vaults. Crowds, angry and wild, storm the shops in reaction. Who amongst them knew in advance? The eagle? The bear? The crown? The sun? Nay, the skies seemed clear, the road straight, Destiny was not a consideration for this race."

Mr. Scallion claimed not to know what the prediction meant when he first published it. I don't know what he thinks now.

Either of our prophets could be talking about any "normal" financial panic or about Y2K-related skullduggery. We'll see in a few days.

:-)

Okay, I went and found it~

The counterfeit of gold and silver inflated, The robbery finished, they will all be thrown out and burned, Discovered to be worth little and troubled, Scripts and bonds frozen, laws interjected.

The treasures kept within a temple by the citizens of Hesperia, Therein withdrawn to a secret place (the vaults), the starving will break the bonds to open the temple, Reopened, ravaged, a horrible chaos in their midst.

I think there is another one, but that is what I could find....interesting, yes?

If you want the real skinny -- not the final word on upcoming events, but theh first and arguably most authoritatve, check our Revleations Chapter 18 ... "For in a single hour is all that wealth laid waste ...."
