"well I lost 100k in Drooy...
I became another one of those stories you read about, with guys losing their retirement savings in stocks, fortunately I still have 50k in cash...at least I have enough for a new car and a small vacation. But the dreams of luxury are over for me. "

Sheesh! 50K = getting by in retirement. But 150K = LUXURY. Not realistic about risks in the market and not realistic about retirement. You know what they say about a fool and his money? It's surprising they ever got together to begin with.
