This is a great calculator and it reveals that this 'temporary' setback is just that, temporary, especially if investors get back on the horse and buy a basket of solid, dividend-strong stocks.

My old money will be back on track in 3 years with a combination of dividends and contributions. Of course, this assumes that the dividends I have bought continue to be paid and without increases.

New and Future money should do well unless anarchy prevails.]]>

ETFs For When Oil Falls http://seekingalpha.com/article/81145-etfs-for-when-oil-falls?source=feed#comment-328450 328450
Is there opportunity to ride HOU up? Unfortunately, I think the increase in oil will be a little more prolonged and subdued than the drop and a long-term investor is far better off buying a solid energy company.]]>

Give Me Three Reasons to Stay in This Market http://seekingalpha.com/article/109796-give-me-three-reasons-to-stay-in-this-market?source=feed#comment-324917 324917
I completely agree that common sense should be the foundation of any individual's investing strategy and that professional have their own agenda.

'Buy (near the Bottom), Hold and Sell (near the Peak)'

This should be the strategy of long, value investors.

Buy real companies with real profits.

Buying companies paying decent dividends makes the Hold period much more tolerable.

All We Have to Fear Is Fear and Slow Economic Activity http://seekingalpha.com/article/109807-all-we-have-to-fear-is-fear-and-slow-economic-activity?source=feed#comment-324907 324907 I like your calm and rational view of the economy and market.
When the real money moves back into the market then and only then will equities rebound and early investors will be rewarded.

Nobody can predict the bottom but selectively purchasing long positions and even using a little leverage should turn out just fine for patient investors with at least a 2-5 year horizon.
