Gas Prices Plummet so Does my Retirement

We are seeing gas prices are $2.99. Wow, that is fantastic. Do you think it could be possible to see the price reach $2.50 a gallon. That would be unbelievable. But at the same time I hesitate to look at my retirement fund. At least half of it is probably gone. EEK. I can't think about it.

I can't not think about it. I was going to do something with that money one day! I was going on vacations or buy a beautiful RV. Drive around the country and visit friends and grandchildren. Is this what they mean by you can't take it with you when you go? Now I am wondering if I should invest so heavily at all. What is the point? To go through something like this again. I might not recover any of this money. Though they are saying if you can stay in for five years, just hold on.

Yet this is the chance that investors take, isn't it? We are risking for the bigger dollar. Sometimes we do not come out ahead. That is the nature of the game. We cannot take all of our toys and stomp away mad. We have to stay in the game and keep on playing. Come on people, don't give up. Gas prices are going down, the sun keeps coming up and you still keep breathing. It is a glorious day. Vega over and out, on the Ground Floor.
