[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not really following how the one poster lost 50% in the market, but is still down almost that much. We, like everyone, were too, but now we are way up. Did you sell? You can always use a dip to purchase more stock. If you did in 2008, you will have massive gains by now. Even if stocks drop 50% when you are 60, you still have 20-40 years of life for them to recover. You have to plan for those dips as best you can.

DH got super-scared, super-conservative, super-risk-averse and put EVERYTHING in very-low-return, "safe" stuff. That's why it's been such a slow, slow climb.[/quote]
