simba, these quotes are interesting

But nowhere for investors was the reminder that it was 1955 before the Dow exceeded the peak of 1929.

Nowhere for investors was the reminder that it was 1982 before the Dow finally passed the 1000 mark first achieved in 1966, without looking back.

Simba,

But no, it doesn't; not in my case. Start at 1993, please? June 1993, to be precise, when I started my first job and 401k.

BTW, I just realized that my ESPP purchases from 1993 have gone up some 25 fold in the last 9 years. And this is after a 75% or so drop in my employer's stock over the past 2 years.

-BGR.
