Let's just say I lost more than many of you probably have ever made. Ever.
you must be very proud of yourself.
I'm actually being quite serious. Yeah, yeah, I'm sure you all just care so much seeing as you all think I'm fabulously wealthy and wear diamond encrusted shoes, but the truth is I am just upper class. I am no Bill Gates or anything, and the pounding on my portfolios is the main reason why I am so hyper fixated on the market right now.
I withdrew about half of my holdings last August, and combined with my savings that means I have enough cash on hand to sustain for a good while, but the portfolio is where the bulk of my wealth is held, and it's taken a serious beating these past 8 months.
You know what I will never lose? The ability to kill a man with my bare hands and take his shit.
Fuck your economy; it hasn't done shit for me but prove that every time I talk to somebody about starting a nest egg that, "Oh, Heavens no, boy, you don't have enough money to do anything. Why don't you pour me another drink and not charge me for it?"

Not good times.
please enough enough i'm not sure my heart can take it
I'm quitting in June and planning to move everything over to an IRA, or I'll take out what I have in there (I need to talk with our company accountant and see if there's a penalty if you take it out for education expenses.)
The Roth IRA is probably the best choice at this moment in time.
Actually, the Roth is like the best thing ever.
Not if you get company match on a 401K. I'd lose 4% of my annual salary in free matched funds.
Yeah, right now my company matches up to 3%

You can have a roth too can't you? The only catch with a roth is the ~$5000 a year limit to contributions. And it's tax free on the other end 8-)

And you don't pay a penalty if you pull out the money early to buy a house, which, in my case, is the main reason I'm keeping the Roth.

I took a class in high school where they basically taught you everything you needed to know to function intelligently financially. We learned about mortgages/car loans/student loans, budgeting, shit like that.
The day we learned about the Roth IRA, the whole time I was thinking "wow if you are young and in a fairly low bracket this is like the sickest deal in finance"

saying you lost that money though is somewhat disingenuous
you would have really only had that money if you had actually liquidated those investments
and I think it's clear they were overvalued considering the situation we find ourselves in now
so what you're really saying is that you're upset that investors are no longer paying too much for stocks

He had to sell two of his vintage smoking jackets.
Now he's only got one good jacket in which to smoke.
Do you understand what that means.

Are you talking about some obscene amount of money or a house or something else?
You are a horrible prick

You are so barking up the wrong tree, buddy.
Listen it'll be alright look there's a white person isn't that better
I guess so.
Don't forget gay!
And a woman.
Me too. I like when that broad gets all dancy and horny, runs off with the islander, and comes back all boo hoo about it.
Also, there's a specific quote that is one of my favorite parts of the whole book - I'm leafing through my copy right now to find it...
(I'm thinking of two different books durrrr rum diaries durrrrrr)
