1,000 Game Mark!

I can remember when Minnesota drafted Kevin Garnet right out of high school. And now he’s just played in his 1,000 NBA game. And what makes this 1,000th so special is that he’s the youngest player ever to do it. The record was held by another player who was drafted out of high school, Shawn Kemp did it on Dec. 20, 2002. Not to down play what Garnet has done, but this record will be broken within the few years. There are two other players on his tail, Kobe Bryant, and LeBron James. If both stay healthy Bryant will reach the record first. Then James will hit the record a few years after. The key to this record is staying healthy like Garnett has as well as Kemp did. I will end with saying, great job Garnet.

Zero Percent!

This week the central bank lowered its interest rate that banks charge each other on overnight loans to 1 percent. The main purpose for this drop is to get banks to start lending. Now what a lot of people don’t realize is that this rate fluctuates. Even before the Fed cut the rate on Wednesday it was already below 1 percent. And that’s because banks are so scared to lend money to anyone. If banks remain on the same course for this month the rate very well could fluctuate to zero percent. And this is what most analysts feel is what is needed, zero percent interest rates. If dropping to zero percent doesn’t jumpstart the economy what is next? There is a lot more options that the Fed can do to start the economy. So this isn’t really a main concern. Japan dropped their interest rate to zero percent for 5 years. So maybe we should do the same to get things moving. And then focus on other options if needed. We’ll get through this, American history has show Americans can battle anything.
