I saw the heading and came to correct the record, but someone already did that, yes Dow is now well over 29,000!
I will say, I don't like the Dow as a gauge, and prefer the Nasdaq with more stocks in it. I say drop the Dow as an indicator.
I do a net worth statement every quarter. I did one at the end of the year.
After 15 days into this year, I checked my main Vanguard account and It's crazy, I'm up $2,345 dollars a day just watching not working. It is a bit scary, because I know it could change any day and I'm pretty aggressive in my portfolio. I went through 2001 and 2008, I stayed fully invested in 2008.
It turned out fine. But now that I'm retired, I'm not so apt to stay invested if we have much of a down turn.
