A few of the crew of long-term "believers" didn't see it coming, or weren't quite prepared for it . . .

Others did, and salvaged some nice gains or at least cut their losses short. Sure, there were lots of negative developments and opportunities to jump ship over the past two years . . . but as a long-term investor, I chose to ignore them (much to my financial detriment). I honestly thought it would end up being a nice, long, profitable cruise.
It was good conversing with you in the past, and I very much appreciate your contributions and perspectives. I just wish I would have paid greater attention to your (and others) words of wisdom/caution.
Sorry the past two years have been so depressing, although the move from $1 to $18+ over the previous couple years was breathtaking.
At this stage and at this minuscule price level, I'm simply too numb (my wife would say too dumb!) to jump. So I guess I'm going down with the ship.
Take care, and best of luck in your future ventures. As bleak as things are now, the markets will no doubt give the bulls many more money-making chances in the future (if any of us are willing/able to venture into the waters again).
Long & wrong,
