Q8, great job of day trading! I think you've done a good job of showing the naysayers you can make money day trading if you know what you are doing.

Dabum, how is that a great job of day trading? He may have made a few dimes trading BHI but Q8 is down close to two bucks on 15,000 shares of AIG.

He never told us how AIG worked out.

He, like you, always appear to be very anxious to tell people about their successes but so reluctant to discuss their failures. It is just basic human nature and all of us are guilty of that so I am not trying to pick a fight with either you or Q8. You are both good guys.

I just feel that we get a distorted picture of overall performance when we only hear about the good stuff.

You gave us a list of mutual funds and ETFs recently that you said contain the bulk of your retirement assets. PRNEX EEM UMESX EEB PRLAX OBCHX EPP. All of them are down 25-60% from their 52-week highs and most crashed through their 52-week lows this week. What is your current feelings about those investments?

Everybody is hurting in this extremely difficult market.

We need more candor.
