[Okie Guy]

I had everything planned perfectly. I would work another 16 years and retire. I have planned, saved and put everthing right where the financial guy told me. After todays hit I couldn't resist I had to peek at my retirement plan. When I looked at how much money I have lost in the past 30 days I was nearly sick to my stomach. If this recession/depression is as long as analyst predict we are in for a roller coaster ride.

I got all bent out of shape mad at these stupid mortgatge sharks and idiots who purchased things they couldn't afford which started this mess. Then I had to remind myself of the little girl form china I watched the movie about last night. A middle school girl who had to go to work to support her parents and siblings. It could be much worse. I am still mad at the yahoos that started this mess but it puts things in a little more perspective.
