    *edit* Also, I feel like I bumped up my contribution rate at a good time last week. Thanks all who assuaged me and my 401k questions a few weeks ago.
    I'm quite literally too old for this sh-t. I went heavy bonds after Dump's first year. I have a feeling the day has arrived when that pays off.

    The oil war and ensuing global depression isn't going to help my international equities any though. Oh well. It's only money and I'm past draft age.

    Were I in my 20s I would be... concerned... about the next few decades.

    And very, very angry.

      This week has been just a perfect storm of ****bags through a snowblower.

      Coronavirus pandemic
      Generational oil wars
      Historically cratering bond yields (30-year sub 1%?!? That's ****ed man...)

      I don't like it.

              Have we? I don't think the Dow or S&P have gone down a full 20%, though they have had some dips. Everything I google says it's been the Obama Bull Market since 2009.

                Dec 2018 was dam close.
                2015 probably came close.
                2011 certainly.

                  Looks like 2011 was for S&P but not for Dow. And headlines still like to look at Dow over S&P (which is kinda dumb). Others came close but not the full 20%.

                            You're welcome. Basically, anyone not retiring within the next decade or so should probably be increasing their contributions. First, to make up for the losses. Second, to increase the number of shares you do own for the next bull market.

                                They don't have to increase their contributions. Buy in at the same rate as before -- with lower prices they get more shares hence more of a base to build from.
