Shit I lost enough $$$$$$$$$$ in the last two weeks that I could have bought a
6spd GXP and a auto GXP. And my money was in low risk funds because I'm getting up there in age. A few ticks short of the half centurt mark.

Buy car parts! You know you wont get your $$ out of them, but you get the enjoyment now and spent your $$ instead of losing it and sanity!

That can be worse than the market both in terms of lost $ and lost sanity.

It's funny, because I have been mostly out of the market for the past 18 months. During the run-up last year, I was feeling a bit gloomy, but when I see that I have been clicking away at 3.x% Money Market returns, I am in a pretty good place. Now is the time to get BACK into the market w/ lots of bargains out there!

I don't think the bleeding has stopped yet.

I think we'll see some people getting back in. There are some stocks that were way over sold. IMO.
Over 7 trillion of wealth was wiped out in the sell off though.

The National Debt Clock in New York has run out of digits for the first time.

US federal government’s national debt is now at about $10.2 trillion.

Your share $86017.00 and the goverment would like to know when to expect payment LOL

The Durst Organization says it plans to update the sign next year by adding two digits. That will make it capable of tracking debt up to a quadrillion dollars. Makes you feel all fuzzy inside.

I wish I had more money to put into the stock market right now. If I had a large amount of disposable income I'd be buying real estate and stocks right now. I don't think we've hit bottom yet but I think the free fall will start to slow down.

I guess we won't have to worry about GM not honoring our warranties due to mods; I don't think they are going to make it that long.

At least they clipped the century mark.

Sad news!
