[In his classic, "How To Make Money In The Stock Market," William O'Neil, publisher of Investors Business Daily, says: "During the last 50 years, we have had 12 bull markets and 11 bear markets. But guess what? The bull markets averaged going up about 100 percent and the bear markets, on the average, declined 25 percent to 30 percent. Not only that, the typical Bull market lasted 3.75 years and the classic Bear market lingered only nine months. Every single time the market recovered and ultimately soared into new high ground." Get it?]

Sounds great...yet i've heard people say that if you bought the best stocks at their highs (before a crash) that it would have taken a investor over 6 years or so to get his original investment back?
