Well considering the fact that at about 1:30 this afternoon I would have needed the dental records of my portfolio to recognize it from 3 weeks ago, it wasn't such a bad day.

Lessons Learned

1. DON'T PANIC
2. If panic sets in, getting into fetal position helps. In extreme panic situations as in 500+ down days, sucking thumb while in fetal position is permissable.
3. Never chase a pre tornado stock, ie elon and cree.
4. Csco is the rock of gibralter of gorillas. Uncle Frank, I would be curious to hear how your csco leaps reacted during the two past days especially at today's bottom.
5. Getting off the margin addiction was a smart move.
6. Owning strictly Gorillas is the best portfolio insurance.
7. I now know the true meaning of hold kings lightly. They get crushed the same as the rest of the commoners.
8. Read TRFM as often as possible. It will help keep you out of the fetal position.

As long as we are forced to pay the tuition, the least we can do is learn from it.
