Okay, well, I don't even know what to say to that, so I'll just leave it be.You've gotta be kidding me. Are you being serious, or are you goofing around and I just walked into the middle of it?the clowns in the obozo admin made up the BS about a recession to cover up obozo's terrible economic policies. It was a temporary market correction, nothing more. the run up to 1929 was a recession, 2008 was not even close.Huh?
.
call it a recession is it makes you feel good. I really don't give a shit what you call it. 08 was a great time to be in the market and I made a lot of money during your "recession", so did anyone with a 401K or any kind of investment portfolio.
.
good decision, since to continue would make you look dumb and/or uninformed.
You must be using an eccentric definition of 'recession' or something. A lot of contrarians made money, sure but that is the beauty of the market
The fact is that tens of billions of USD was wiped out in the market's collapse and retirement plans, pensions and 401ks across the country were seriously hurt (recovering best if they stayed in the market and came back with it).
