Anyone else feel like you've either lost and/or are losing most of what you've acquired over the past 20 years? Everytime I look at my mutual funds I light up a stogie and pour 3-4 shots to drown my worries! OUCH!!!!!

some of my 5 cent stock are down to 1 cent, but no biggy and i can handle a loss of a few hundred dollars.

the rest of my money is tied up in spent.

Yep, mutual funds are hurting. I think they will come back ok. Whats that word? Diversification. Mutuals are inherently diversified. Look at it like this: everythings on sale now. It's a good time to buy. The right stuff of course.

Might as well bet on sports. At least thats based in logic and statistics rather than emotion!

I agree diversification is the way to go. I have marbles , Pokemon cards and Britty Spears cd's and if they fail I can always fall back on my Booger collection. LOL JonR
