Having lost BIG on the market because of the bail out and credit failures, I was just thinking what else I could have spent the money on instead. I think I would have went to Europe and had a sex filled weekend that would have rivalled that of any King or Prince in mankind history. How about you?

name of the game is not to panic. Paper losses come back but if you sold at a loss you do lose.

If I would have sold 1 year ago and brought the stocks back again today, well I could have got me a nice stroker motor and HD trans for my hot rod and still have enough $ to fill the tank up with $8 a gallon racing gas :p


But then I might have wiped out again and this time not be so lucky as before, so maybe its just as well.


True true, its just paper loses, I was in back in 1987 and 2 years later got out a bit ahead, If I recall it right..been a long time.

Well at least you have children, I yet don't and may never. But as the Bible says a reason to have them. . .plant oaks for the future (save of course for Revenue Canada and the IRS) :)

Well you'll be towards to back of the line - but presuming. . . . .
Just need a list of the other heirs and you can bet the line will move quickly:p

Seriously I am lucky to have a daughter.
