The stock market is depressing that I've stopped looking at it and really didn't really want to post on the blog since it's all I've been posting about recently.
I still have some positions left in the market and things continually get worse and worse. My account is taking a huge hurting. At least I can be thankful that I have a stable job and I've kept a decent reserve of cash for living expenses. Though my rainy day fund, which was supposed to let let me live worry free for at least a year or 2 worry free has been substantially crushed.
In the big picture of things, I guess living through a screw up like while young isn't too bad. I'll recover the cash through work and I don't have any debts. I'll also have experience living through an economic crash, which is far better experience than any textbook might actually offer.
Unfortunately, I am away from my main computer at home for atleast the next week which I have access to my trading account (there is some time dependent password that I didn't bring with me to access my trading acount) so I don't know how much I've lost. But it's now at least in the -$10,000 ball park. Ouch.
This loss, compared to the $100,000's with others have lost is small potatoes so I'll just be glad with that and equip myself to deal with things better the next time around.
