ditto.
Depending on where you are and your circumstances, a stock market crash is a disaster, just another day, or a benefit.
For most rural folks, just another day.
I might be a disaster for some folks in NYC and Chicago, but they should realize crashes are part of the game they are playing.
A friend called me today all flustered and asked if I was watching the market. I said no. She then proceeded informing me of what is going on. After I listened to her (extremely patiently and trying not to yawn), I asked her how Vegas, Atlantic city and the Lottery were doing. Was she watching the happenings there? She was now confused. I explained to her that The NYSE is no different than gambling. It’s just a different way of getting rich or poor faster.
I have more important things to worry about...like my cat being terrified of the new dog in the house who is in heat. The dog, not the house.
