Split evenly between the companies? (as in $3000 in each stock and then $2000 in gold?)

Re: I've Lost 18% of my retirement this week!!!
I have seen the time when I didn't have food in the house and no money to buy any but God provides.
This world is not our long home,I hate the things these economic probelms do to people,but God can still send a raven to feed us if need be.

Re: I've Lost 18% of my retirement this week!!!
what bothers me is paying someone a lot of money to manage the account and they don't see this coming and move the funds into something better

My issue with my plan is there is no alternative, it's front loaded in that the commission is paid before any money is gained or lost.

In my "plan" there is no alternative because I can't legally touch it

Re: I've Lost 18% of my retirement this week!!!
and they tell us AFTER the fact that the bail out won't work unless housing prices stop dropping and start going back up...
Are the major lenders and insurers going better? Well the CEOs of AIG spending 400k on a california spa just after the bailout and being loanded several billion dollars

Re: I've Lost 18% of my retirement this week!!!
This is the prayer we are praying...
My dad has lost 20% of his retirement and he retired less than 6 months ago.
IF this market is going to crash (which I firmly believe it is) we are praying that it make one more rise so those who would want to do so can get out with minimal losses and then it can do what it wants to.
Anyone wanting to help us pray along these lines is welcome to join in.

LOL, I know that now, but it doesn't do me a lot of good. Normally in life, when you learn a lesson the hard way you think 'Well, this will help me in the future', but I am really hoping that it won't.

Considering the circumstances it might be advantageous to file an amendment.
