As long as you don't lose it all.Is it not better to have won then lost, then to have never won before?
^^^^
Just kidding, I have absolute surety that I will not go to zero. I'm a big market supporter, it got me to this point.

Down 15.8% with 50/50 asset allocation, year to date. Not as much fun to watch this year.

A quick check for the first half 2022 stats. 60/40 portfolio with some covered call selling that blunted the drop slightly. I also withdrew $25K for living expenses so far, that's included in the drop:
2022 YTD:-18.3%, -$570K from ATH . Damn, I "lost" $1/2 a mill. Well that sucks. I don't think I'll check it again until EOY.
If I wanted to look at it thru rose colored glasses, I am up still up 16.6% for the most recent 24 months and have $135K more than I did on retirement day 21 months ago.

^^^ If you don't check, you will not know if you become eligible for the "Million Dollar Club": the club of posters who lost a 7-figure sum in a market downturn.
In the subprime fiasco of 2008-2009, several posters had that honor. With the bull market since then, posters have become more prosperous, and the club membership will be more widespread this time.

1) Buy on the dip: Right after you buy, the market goes up and you run a victory lap.
2) Catching a falling knife: You buy at 20% lower than the high, just to see it drops another 20%. You cry into your cheap beer, because that's all you can afford.
The two conditions are not mutually exclusive. First, 1) happens. Then a week later, 2) happens.

I was one of those. Less than 3/4 of the way now, but time will tell. Most of my money is in the Canadian TSX which has not lost what the S&P has.

Yes.
As often claimed, my "superior" memory registered many disparate random things, and your loss then was one of the things I remember.

It is almost like a BTD experience...only I don't remember what we bought.

I don't see the point in posting to this thread often, but since we're half way thru the year I'll go:
-15.7% YTD
The index I compare my returns to is (equity % x US total market) + (fixed income % x US total bond), where FSKAX is US total market and FXNAX is US total bond.
That composite is -16.3% YTD, so I'm every so slightly better off than expected.
In actuality my numbers are a bit better than that, as my portfolio tracker doesn't include interest from some fixed income products (I Bonds, CDs, savings accounts).
