The financial crisis becomes more and more pervasive and a lot of people have been hit hard by falling stocks. Everybody is facing tough economic times, but the people who have their money in stocks have even less reasons to smile.
Today is again a bearish day, indices are falling again (Amsterdam -5%, London -9%, Frankfurt -9%, Paris -5%, Brussels -5%).
In recognition of these bearish times, the Blog08 conference, organized by Ernst-Jan and Edial and cooperation with The Next Web, came up with a special financial crisis offer. Only today people who know people that have been hit by the crisis can buy one ticket and get their friend a free entrance pass. Help a friend!

with all due respect, but if you invest in shares this is part of the game, so why should I feel sorry?
I understand what you mean Ernst-Jan and I agree in that sense…
still, I think that the best gift we can give to such friends is a good written article about investments in general, so that these friends can learn something and make sure they don’t make the same mistake twice…
I personally think you should offer this ‘antidote’ also to the people that already bought a ticket. Everybody could know someone who’s hit hard, not just the people that haven’t bought a BLOG08 ticket yet, right?!
I guess that goes for a lot of people, but most people just thought it was a safe haven for their savings and weren’t aware of a “game” of any sort.
I’d love to Wouter, but then the credit crunch will hit us as well.
