i have to make lemonade from lemons - my $5000 IRA contribution will be mailed very shortly...
I have 2 retirement plans and i have to say... they didn't go down as much as I thought they would have...especially my MFS account - less than 5%. Oppenheimer... - 20% plus.
yes well my dad is now worried. We have alot of mutual funds and I am afraid to look at the vanguard statement. Probably lost 40 percent of it all! So eating soup is right! Just low carb soup. this sucks. this really sucks. I guess I still got that cabin in the woods, and the tenant rent check came today, so at least thats a positive. But I cant even sell that damn thing. We really all F u c + + D

I've always been a firm believer in "less is more" - the more you have, the more you have to lose! My parents lived this way and have raised us to live the same way. My dad grew up during the depression! His mother was loaded... until the depression! I've always been very conservative with money - I don't gamble. And to me...investing in stocks, bonds, etc. is a gamble. Great if it pays off but in times like this..there's no better investmant than cash!

Ha, got my Vanguard statement today down $10,000 in two accounts. Will hold awhile longer. I don't think its as bad as you assume. Talked with TR Price the other day and they are doing OK.......haven't lost a penny in fact gained a few dollars.

your probably right, I dont look at the statements, dad is the investor wiz. So its probably not as bad as I think thanks you made me smile!! He invests in pretty good solid companies, General Mills is not gonna stop making cereal!! People still need drugs too!
I am moving on, but the shopping is over for now!!
sometimes its easier to be broke, no insurances, no health insurance, no worries just hope the welfare check is not sent out before a holiday! Its like If you have money you have to get health insurance, I own a home so I have to protect that and get higher rate auto insurance and health insurance and homeowner insurance so liability is covered. I know this sounds like warped logic but sometimes it seems easier.
