Boy...The nail just got hit on the head..

It is not about the balance, but the income stream, or for some , the re-invested dividend that will grow over time..

Seig... Great point... That is the noise we should not listen too...

they are like weathermen...they spend the whole damn day talking about up or down, or sideways... They beat the poor horse until he says stop it...

So you are track when you tune out the noise and don't worry about the bouncing ball..

Saw the day coming, everything down but treasuries, and no big deal...

Just another day.

But I am looking to adjust my strategies... Doing good is not doing Great, and i am looking to improve my skills and returns..
