Hang in there Freeus
staying long here against the tide
and sound reasoning

about back to where I was in April
next two days will tell

my luck: .5 cut
but sell-off because
must signal no recovery
in sight

.25 cut
sell-off
not enough

feel like i'm
about to walk into
a free fire zone

I'm so depressed that I didn't keep the fortune I had last year, can hardly stand it.

Lynn, you're my friend. You and I know that. As a friend I'd recommend you first go to cash, then spend a few days in an old folks home, or a homeless shelter. Your problem is not the balance in your account, your problem is you have lost all perspective in what you do, and do not have. You are in the top 10% of people in America in terms of net worth, right now! Do you know that the average American has $%2,000 in savings? Did you know that last month, consumer spending exceeded consumer income. That most Americans live 1 check out of the poorhouse. Do you? The majority of children today are born into poverty. Have you ever lived in poverty?
I'll bet you don't think about those things. You're bummed about the millions you had. A large % of the population cannot comprehend a million dollars, let alone have it.

There comes a point at which sympathy is the last thing a person needs. You're there my friend.

I care about you, but you selfpity is driving me up a wall.
