Reply #27: Hehe, most FAs would sooner eat a live puppy than admit the market is down

I mean, if people were activly managing their funds, the FAs wouldn't be able to clock out at noon to head for the golf course...

I like the ideas of alerts as long as it didn't set off paniced selling. That's why I think (like I said in the other sub-thread) that employers who offer a retirment fund should be (I think) required to provide annual education/training of some sort to their employees. I'm lucky to work for a non-profit that is very employee oriented as they provide this sort of thing.
