A little punchy from toorcon (www.toorcon.org). In typical con style, not a lot of sleep was had but a lot of fun was. This trip was however made even more fun by the fact that I got to hang out with my brother (younger than me by 6 years) and a friend who has known me longer than anyone. Excellent quality time was had

Markets aren't all that bad...your stock from work is hurting a bit, but then again, it's not like it hasn't been down that low before.

Unless you're heavily invested in things like financial companies, I don't think you need to worry. I'm making assumptions here about things like you not having more than $100,000 in any bank account, having a fixed rate mortgage, and so forth.

Might want to check your 401k allocations though. I think most of the scrambling is probably going on with the fund managers, though. 70-80% stocks and 20-30% fixed income investments is usually a pretty good split.

Oh and I totally want to do lunch, soon, and hear all about toorcon.

thanks. I'm pretty well diversified and have always taken the long perspective. So even if the numbers look bad now, it's not indicative of far future performance.

We will do lunch soon.
