You're young. It's nothing to worry about.

The market will recover at some point and when it does we, as young people, have all the time in the world to ride this wave out and benefit from this.
I know...that's what WHF keeps telling me.

It was just like...what the hell?! I had this money for how many years...and now that I put it in...it all goes down the crapper. :lol:

annnnnnnnnnnnnnnndd the dow dipped below 8k this morning...



welp... i don't know what to even say right now... this is getting dramatically terrible...

I really wish I understood economics so that I knew what was bad and why it's bad. Rather, I feel like I'm blindfolded and people just keep saying "THIS IS BAD!" but won't say what is bad about anything.

I got a 1 on the AP economics exam :lookaroun :lol:

A quick hello and...
A great big ((HUG)) for Steph.
Love you!
Enjoy every minute!

Hi/bye Dot!

Trust me it does suck... definitely.

But, you just gotta look at it that, it's not part of your current net worth and so it doesn't affect you today... and in the end the market will recover and you're future will not be ruined...

Unfortunately... I don't see the market recovering anytime soon, and I don't think we've even begun to see what rock bottom looks like...

Our flight leaves at 4:45 too out of BWI. :rolleyes: I am sure if you forget something there is a Wally World somewhere:ROFLOL:Hope you have a wonderful time take lots of pics.

Oh NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

:brick::brick::brick::brick::brick:

I just sent a press release out to all employees without turning off my "request a read receipt" option! :brick: I accidentally did that with a different release more than a year ago and I STILL get read receipts from it. :brick:

Of COURSE this has to happen hours before I'm leaving for a week. My Inbox is going to be ridiculous when I get back.:brick:

hahahahha

You really have nothing to worry about. You'll also ride the coat tails of the nice wave...

I mean you're already in school which is good (if you have loans) because we're entering a period (although thank god for the bailout... I firmly believe it had to happen, and it will in the long wrong make us money) because otherwise you wouldn't even be able to takeout a student loan...

without the bailout... there'd be an overabundance of frozen assets... meaning they wouldn't have any real value... everyone would lose faith in banks and start taking their money out of them... more would crumble... and there'd be no money in the economy which means that there'd be no liquidity in bank's assets to in turn give out loans and so no one would be able to buy houses without loans, and if they got them interest rates would be so high it'd be just an overall bad investment to buy a house; you wouldn't be able to buy a car or even get student loans...

with the dow plummitting we're entering a verrrrrrry tight trading period, (which unfortunately could last upwards of 10-15 years) where... we may not see the dow reach upwards of the 14k peak for a very long time... anyone who is looking to retire in the next... 10-15 years and hadn't made the conversative move in pushing their portfolio into bonds has already lost an absurd amount of money... and in they next 10-15 years they may never regain what they lost.

the market wants to bottom... today in the first hour it dropped almost 700 points to 7800; and then jumped back up to 8600 which is good... if the market plummits int he first hour or so and then ends up finishing the day with a gain you can basically see the change take place in the market where, as long as it doesn't go back below the original bottom; you've hit a bottom and you can see a bright outlook... (but again, unfortunately... the next 10-15 years could EASILY see some tight trading so nothing much is going to change for the people who have losts A LOT of money over the past month)

the real problem of the economy is going to be the tight spending this causes which in turn will cause other companies (and not just the ones on wall street) to continue to crumble... meaning unemployment will increase dramatically... and high unemployment has a direct negative affect on the economy... considering it means there is not as much money out there to spend and more people NOT buying houses, not buying cars, not taking out loans... and more and more assets freeze up...

Little economics 101 I figured I'd share... :D
