I know absolutely nothing about investing, but hope it bounces back for ya.

1MOREMOD · 01-15-2016, 10:39 AM

Should I become liquid and put it in the mattress

CANGRKE70 · 01-15-2016, 10:40 AM

This is why I diversify and also invest in property. Still taking a beating though.

08njSTEP · 01-15-2016, 10:41 AM

Buy more lotto ticks and maybe go to the OTB. I've heard some things about keno too.

welcome to china.

I remember back in 2009, I felt glad at least I had bought the 335i and my 50% downpay was play money from stock gains. I suppose it's always good to diversify, and also live based on your gross income, so when all else fails, you have your job lol

Bought oil futures when the barrel was above $50....nuff said.

Long term hold for me

I'm trying to look long term as well. My 403b money is pretty much stuck where it is, for better or worse. I could temporarily stop contributions, but that would mean my funds wouldn't be buying stocks at record lows. Or so I'm told. I'm hoping the fact that my actual share amounts are going up like crazy turns out to be a good thing in the long run.

I wish I knew the market as well as I know computers and networking.

Buffett starting to bet big on oil is an interesting twist...

Outside of my 401k I pulled everything out of public markets last year. I'll let my 401k take a beating as I can't touch that for a long time anyways. Should be an interesting year.

I leveraged Futures, meaning I'm pooped for this right now. The way I look at it, oil is finite and i'll just wait it out. Would definitely be a good buy right now.

The banks are going to get crushed shortly as well, which means a good buy time.

fhaze3 · 01-15-2016, 01:44 PM

I just put several 10's of K's into two Vanguard accounts VMMXX and VSCGX, most if it in VSCGX..It was only getting 0.02 in my savings account. Should I pull it back? Or is now the right time to get into it if I don't plan on touching it for 1-2 years?

This is the best time to make contributions?!?! Buy when everything is on sale.

That's my hope. I just hope the fund manager knows more than I do. Sometimes I wonder....

Delta0311 · 01-15-2016, 01:53 PM

I look at it as a good time to buy in.. To those that got screwed, I got this to say

Stock analysts, about as dependable as the dude who claims he has psychic powers and can predict lotto numbers but still lives at home with mom and takes public transportation.

rjd598 · 01-15-2016, 02:00 PM

You guys really think it will go to shit? I think it's a good time to buy

Delta0311 · 01-15-2016, 02:00 PM

When it goes to shit it's always a good time to buy.. Trick is to find the companies that will bounce back.. Banks are always assholes that pull through, so that might be a good bet. Then you got utilities as a safe bet.

MightyMouseTech · 01-15-2016, 02:16 PM

Although, things are about to get much worse. Maybe wait till it really crashes.
