I’m 67 and my health is not perfect. I’ve lost 2/3 of my assets since Obama took over. Heaven help us....because it means my children have lost even more.
We are in the same boat with you. Let’s just keep paddling. We’ll get past the rapids sooner or later....................unless there’s a waterfall ahead...........
We only lost 1/3 of our IRAs since 2008- I started paying attention after March 2009 and shielded what was left after that in bonds and treasuries and cash savings, for now. No growth, but no loss either ... for now
Maybe for the rest of my days, “long term investing” will mean leaving money in a stock fund over the weekend
