My blood pressure this morning knowing the market was going to crash and I have blood pressure problems. So far I am not in panic mode. Call me when the DOW goes below 9000.

10. Jesus.
***Sigh*** This is a disaster. I don't think there's going to be any sort of rally around the corner, but I guess I can always HOPE that these numbers CHANGE for the better.

People with retirement investment portfolios must be truly frightened right now.

13. I feel you. They'd feel even worse.
I'm actually thinking of my mother. Her state-funded retirement account has been raided. She had a meager portion invested (very meager portion as she is a teacher). At this point, she will be working into her 70s.

Shameful.
