That's it, that's why most have lost. Even if you don't own stocks you might have a 401k or real estate of some sort. That's why I believe this reached to most folks.
I don't have any of those things but I'll be trying to find a job next spring, that's when it might hit me.Long time member @ Apolyton

Bizarrely enough I'm making a pile of money off of a strange pyramid-ish scheme run by a minister (wierd Korean family financial compact that involves lots of zero-interest loans which'll let me get a rent-free apartment next year, thanks to putting down a very large security deposit).
Korean finances are wierd

I sold out of the stock market a few years ago, so no loss there.That's it, that's why most have lost. Even if you don't own stocks you might have a 401k or real estate of some sort. That's why I believe this reached to most folks.
My IRA is probably down but not much, I always went with the most stable funds (and other mocked me, who is laughing now!), but in all honest a one or two year period is nothing to an IRA.

What the hey? I'm still down from 10 years ago. Take my word - never, ever, ever do business with a southern stock broker. Who else would refuse to sell Microsoft stock to his clients while pushing Tyco?"I say shoot'em all and let God sort it out in the end!Comment

As an example of how retirement funds are being hit, this is the government Thrift Saving Plan numbers.
G Fund F Fund C Fund S Fund I Fund
September 08 0.31% (1.31%) (8.94%) (10.32%) (12.31%)
Year-to-date 2.86% 0.84% (19.25%) (16.08%) (27.81%)
12 Month 4.05% 3.89% (21.94%) (18.90%) (29.01%)
I am in the G- Fund which is government securities investment. I am pretty sure the 10 year average for the C/S/I (corporate investments of various kinds) funds will look like the G fund by the end of this year.
