Good luck.

My CFA is good, but this down turn hurt that business alot. My suggested investments have netted me like negative 100k where as my own stock market investments are up 50%.

You will land on your feet. While I certainly wish you the best of luck you're the type of person that will make luck come to them. It's a hard bump in the road but you will be fine. I have no doubt of that.

Thanks everyone for your kind words. I appreciate them more than you can know.

Cull the strong and smart....so the weak and stupid can continue on. I've seen this many, many times in good old Corporate America. More than I cared to.


Now for the person who rolled eyes at me.....take a guess who is taking it on the chin right now in unemployment? The statistics do not lie.....WHITE MALES!
