Man I’m glad I neutralized my investments when I did......and I STILL lost $2k before I could get it stopped.

I moved my (very) little in a 403(b) before 2008. Made a small amount as I put it all in bonds. Had to cash it in 2008 and take the hit.
I just cashed the last $500 last year to get it on 2021 taxes. Good thing I did (they withheld $100 plus). I only had to pay $200 additional (overall) in taxes this year (for last year).
