Come visit. I'll take you to a Tribe game and show you Downtown.
Did you sit on the sidelines for those 5 years and then blame Obama because you missed out on 5 years of growth? If so you're a fool who has no business making his own investing decisions. No matter how you slice it we had a 7 year bull market under obama and if you didn't do well you have no one to blame but yourself. If I do even half as well under trump I will be very happy.

One of my wife's coworkers was freaking out. My mom and dad had to sell they had already lost 300k.
All I could think was IDIOTS. I used it to teach my wife they hadn't actually LOST any money until they sold. That's when they screwed themselves.

It was hard to watch. It really was.

Under normal circumstances yes doubling your money in 4-5 years is fantasy land. The recession made it a reality anyone could have.
You didn't have to be a genius and pick the perfect stock. You just had to have the balls to stay in and continue buying. ALL stocks were selling at a huge discount.

I was and still am young enough it was kind of fun to watch.
I remember sitting in McDonald's eating lunch the day it decided to just nosedive. People were sick to their stomachs watching it and I was cheering it on. Upped my 401k percentage a few ticks that day.
Tell me how funny it is when it happens 20 years from now. It's not an easy pill to swallow.

They all weren't selling at a huge discount for 4-5 years straight. And you don't purchase individual stocks in a 401k. They are diversified funds that have different risk levels. What you are saying is just bs.

Nothing now. The point is even cutting in half what they put towards our pensions and put that in 401k is a lot of money.A couple $ million might be harder than you think.

Yeah but honestly other than a couple times in history we've never been more than 4-5 years away from recovering your money.

Good luck with that. The majority of workers want the security of a defined benefit pension.

That's cool. I understand that. I thought we were talking about how ups could get out of our pensions.
The only way that could happen with them still making plenty of money like now would be to give us a large defined contribution to our 401k.
