No - you lost $85,000 because you were stupid enough to keep your
funds in whatever type of account you had it in.
Cash dude - been saying that for years - in fact, since 2004.
Haven't lost a thing because I recognized the bubble and kept my
powder dry.
Another couple of months, I'm ready to get back in.
Except the 2% LOST to inflation every year. or about 100/1000 over the
four years. With the twit going to be in the White House expect that to
double hopefully not the double digit inflation during the Carter years.
Good point, as I am at about 2005 valuations, at least I got more than 1%
return using Jan 2005 as a base. And in the bank, you might not get your
money. The last place to put it is the bank, find a brokerage account where
the broker does not do loans, mortgages and the like.
Please explain. I think you got it backwards.
