Market Meltdown

However, the retired members here can make up for all of that. They can go to the casino every day using a 1 to 5 spread and when they are up or down 8 or 9 units they walk swiftly for the door, just like you do.

How many times do I have to correct you? I've lost count. I have repeatedly stated that I did that at ONE casino I was MILKING for comps and I don't play that way at other places. I won't play that way there anymore either since the comps dried up. Also, I don't play everyday, I play once or twice a month. Finally, it was a 1:4 spread at that ONE location. I spread between 1:8 and 1:20 depending on table minimum.

You are either intentionally distorting my words or suffering from Alzheimers. Give it a rest already. Besides, how anyone else but you chooses to play is none of your concern.

Maybe you're jealous you can't afford to play that way?

You seem to have an odd obsession with this issue and may be in need of mental health counseling.

Front counter, just relax, I am not being serious in any of this, which is all supposed to be in good fun.

I thought you once posted that after the 2008 crash you never got back into the stock market as much as you were before the crash. Anyway, I do remember you posting over at BJ21 that you sold a large part of your stock investments within something like 10 days of the market bottom in 2009. I think you said you were just sick of losing money.

Anyway for me the 2008 crash was pretty hard. I just took early retirement and was not old enough for social security. I had to make withdrawals from my 401(k). Today I can probably get by on my pension and social security without touching my investments. Besides my 401(k) is now about one third invested in a stable value fund.

Just sick of this market. It's hard to believe I lost over $50,000 in the last 6 days. Can't do anything about it now. Just hoping this down turn won't be as bad as 2008.

I think you lucked out losting over $50000. I heard some people lost six or seven figures.

Whatever you lost, it was painful this past week. At least for anyone in the market. And right after..............I mean RIGHT after it had hit record highs earlier in month. Now I know why stockbrokers jump out of windows.............LOL

Know what happens when you try to "catch a falling knife." It isn't pretty.
