hang in there, freeus. i think the bottom is at hand. I qaudrupled my portfolio in 3.5 years; now i am even a bit below where i started; at least, i paid off two credit cards and bought two cars (used) with cash and lived the wealth effect there for a while. also helped out an ex spouse in poor health with several thou. now have to make a comeback. all the best jhg i believe worst is over i only have faith in 3 stocks now, emc, dell, and ciena.

Freeus, check out Bertram Russell's _The Conquest of Happiness_. I try to reread it once a year. It's perfect for your frame of mind!

Freeus, I apologize in advance for this post ... but it just made me angry that God has been so mean to all of us I have watched you post for months on SI crying about all the money YOU lost based on YOUR decisions. You talk incessantly about how much you are worth, were worth and will be worth and personally, I don't care, nor does anyone else I would imagine. Most have lost a great deal, so what ? To blame God for YOUR greed, YOUR poor decisions is beyond belief. Perhaps Freeus, God has taught you a lesson, or attempted to; perhaps you will look at what should be truly important in life. I hope for your sake you do but this most recent post suggests you haven't. Please stop crying all over SI, a girlfriend is good for that, a counselor would be good, but it is old and tiring to read constantly. Oh, and stop blaming God for your mistakes; grow up and take responsibility for you. Again, sorry ... JB
