Ah well, it's all about dollar cost averaging for me anyways.

As for the senior bank officers and board members and others who would go from riches to rags, that's what happens when you take an enormously poor risk in a vastly over inflated real estate market. When banks were run rationally and carefully less than 5% of their assets were invested in real estate, these clowns were putting 65% or more in a fool's market. Only those deluded by greed didn't see the obvious collapse in the vastly over inflated real estate market that so long over due. All we've done with bailouts-besides wreck the economy-is to encourage foolish and stupid behavior in the future because the nanny state will bailout those who make poor decisions instead of let them pay the price that the foolishly greedy need to pay when they make and live in bubbles.

Given the financial market's reaction after Lehman's collapse, it's hard to imagine what could happen any Citi, or BofA, or AIG had failed.

BTW, if you buy that have I got a bridge for you.... And it has NOTHING to do with the government’s behind the scenes manipulation of futures the past couple of months.
