When you're rich enough not to need the day job, as a result of the gorilla game, the problem arises of how do you preserve the situation, i.e. the capital. Well there is an excellent solution to that problem, it's the Gorilla Game. It's very good for preserving capital. Investors in Microsoft 15 years ago certainly preserved their capital:-).
I'm finding that QCOM,JDSU,CSCO, etc. are preserving my capital and then some. Right now, bonds will also preserve my capital but if the governments start to undertax and overspend again then inflation will resume and the bonds won't preserve the capital. So I personally will stick with the GG and the two threads of SI that I follow, namely Softbank and this one.
You are worrying about a big downturn in the market. If it keeps you up at night you could have two years expenses in 1-2 year deposits. If it doesn't keep you up at night why not stay invested in the market? Nobody can time the market though so many people try. When the market drops ask yourself if science and technology have just been outlawed. If not then await the rebound, which might take two days or two years.
Hope this helps.
