depressing but we're all about the same age and just have to ride this thing out. Things will turn around as they always have. Now if we were in our 60's.....
I turned this into a mini game last night. I searched for my year of birth and compared it with Weird Momma's, and little guys. It turns out little guy won with a 20 - 30 percent increase. The good news was the other two years were still increases.
I also think from afar the graph kind of looks like the Sears Tower.
Since this is supposedly my area, you would think I would have a good post here. Maybe I'll come back to it later, but I'm too tited of this topic in real life to post on it in my not real life. Suffice to say on a 20 year time frame most people don't have th eoption to NOT be at least partially invested ion the stock market, and that the market drop can actually be perceived as a GOOD thing to anyone with a 20 year time frame.
One thing that an uneducated eye can see is that as a measure of us economy over the past 70 years the number of years of positive growth outnumber the years of retraction by roughly 2 to 1.
This in a way ties back to an earlier discussion as to whether or not their has been an fundamental shift in the nature of economy and the ebb and flow the economic cycles.

Interesting graph...not exactly sure what it means in the scheme of things. I guess I won't be able to use it to get rich...I'm no rainman.
Woohoo, my birth year was up 40%!
