I'm back to where I was 2yrs ago on my 401k. It doesn't affect me right now, but it will when I want to retire. The Market always does this in Oct for some reason.

They take back everything we just earned over the past few years, and somebody is making a profit off that.

I think it's a conspiracy.

I heard someone of the radio today talk about averting a worldwide recession. I'll just be happy if we're not fighting for jobs with the Tennessee Valley Authority before we're done.

Anyone who thinks the government doing something about anything is going to help is clueless. I'll stick with the Libertarians on that one.

So this ABC talking head comes on TV, and he says "The stock market has lost 20.9% in the last 10 days, which is technically a crash."

Then the President comes on TV, and tells us not to worry.
