    Maybe they should have just changed it to... Assertive.

    Louis,

    I see your posts on facebook and come hear. I want to see this on friendfeed to say "Like". Is there a way you can link your post to the friendfeed of the same post right here? I think I saw you had the friendfeed discussion of a post earlier.

    Sujamthe, at the bottom of each of my posts is a "Find on FriendFeed" button, which can take you to the article on that site. Thanks!

    ..."So... should I feel my money is safer, now that the word "Aggressive" has been replaced with "Capital Appreciation" and "Strategies"? I'm just hoping this isn't the first step, leading from "Aggressive" to "Capital Appreciation" to "Maintaining" to "Losing Slightly" to "Bankruptcy Quickening"....
    ...
    You should just feel lucky that being young you have (only) about 6 or 7 more cycles to cope with...

    Following is a sure sign that markets has stabilized:
    Forty years ago I sold fifty shares of my company stock and had enough money to purchase a brand-new 1967 Toyota pickup.

    Last week, I checked it out, and if I sold another fifty shares, I'd have enough money to buy a 1967 Toyota pickup.

    So, the market has stabilized.

    Fidelity sounds like Fatality. Better pull out your 401K before it become another Fatality

    Radix malorum est cupiditas! Id Est: Cupidity is the root of all evil. Not "the love of money" or even "money" is the root, but the grubby, greedy, lusty obsession with all the power and things money can buy. If you can get the emotion out of it, investing gets a little easier.
