If I didn't have a day job and two babies at home I'd be taking a bunch more nap's. Lettin it ride... up down up down. I'm finding buy and hold to work way better for me.
DCAing every chance I get.

It's all on paper unless you book it, so you are not making any money or losing, until you sell. I know what you mean though. I'm getting warn out myself, that never happens to me.

Frank, RE: How the heck are long term shareholders suppose to make any money in this kind of atmosphere??

If you're a long term shareholder, you'd recognize that in the last decade you've witnessed limited downside that is far less than the norm. What you're seeing now is just the market returning to something like a regular market. If you're not willing to live with the current volatility, you shouldn't be in the stock market.
