The problem erupts as you grow older, retire and are no longer able to continue to $cost average into the market. That is where I am now. Luckily, I still have a number of years left I HOPE to live and sooner or later I really think it will snap back.

Amen to that. It sure sounds different these days when you hear the commercials talking about what happens if you keep so-and-so dollars in such-and-such an investment for 30 years. LOL! Unless they suddenly discover a fountain-of-youth drug, in 30 years I'm going to be just another bad memory. At this point, my emphasis is on spending, not so much on accumulating. Let my spoiled-brat over-educated over-privileged kids take care of themselves with whatever my wife and I don't decide to piss away on toys<g>.
