The Market gives and the Market takes

if the market continues like today ( down 300 points ) there will be less money for adult fun. not good.

Yup, the big drop hasn't come yet.

Market is due to retrace 10% - 15% ... today was nothing.

The tempestuous and impatient nature of investors never ceases to amaze me. Market fluctuations are the norm yet many market players seem to grab their cash and run for the hills at the first indication of trouble. I've done reasonably well in the market over the years with a patient, steady approach. Having an advisor that is trust worthy and knowledgeable helps as well...IMHO.

when you're young you can take the hits. not so easy when you are an old gesser and the bank pays you nothing.
