    Not 100% but mostly yeah, I've been out for around a year. Hard to say when it was going to correct by now we are starting to see it. Pretty sure we are not done here.

    And I totally get why owning stock directly is down, this all correlates well with individuals entering via mutual funds exclusively.
    the non-ins utional investor doesn't trust the market so much. he/she might not be wrong. historical patterns aren't destiny.

    Rough week for losers who panic. I'll make millions off them.

    Absolutely true.
    But if someone mentions a better suggestion to invest long term than US stocks I would like to know.
    There is risk in every investment.

    I did absolutely nothing. But I don't try to time the market constantly and I have time.
    The strength of my investing is realizing the U.S. is not in an immediate crisis with every event. 2007-08, when I bought heavily, was a lucky decision I guess as we did get a lot closer to a real mess than I realized.

    My father killed it during the first Iraq conflict when the DOW was at 2100. I listened to his reasoning.

    The next month and a half could be huge for me with a project. I have always wanted to teach, and even though I really like my job it may be time to quit and give something back to my fortunate situation.

    You may all sing the National Anthem on 3. And uh 1...

    I think Starbucks will be near the 100 mark in the next year or so to be honest
