GG, I am no longer sure about that last one. I have always been a saver and investor. When you have massive amounts of your saving wiped out in a matter of weeks, it gives you pause. But wait, you think you have diversified nicely with real estate....yeah.....
I am blessed to still be very comfortable after sustaining terrible losses. Many will not be. What a sin.
