Ah yes, what a rude awakening awaits all those who are
"saving for their early retirement" by piling money into
the stock market at nosebleed multiples and "no fear"
approaches to risk.
Funny how nobody wanted to own stocks in 1974 when
the multiples were single digit and the risks were
tiny. But now that multiples have quadrupled and
risks of ownership have soared and potential returns
have dwindled everybody everywhere wants a piece of the
action. But think of the opportunity this creates for
the savvy investor!

Marc,

I know individuals who really started putting 401k money in while in their late 40's and their 50's who are piling in the max all in equities since they feel they have no choice since they started late.

I know a few of these types too. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
