It is easy to play Monday morning quarterback about these things. Shoulda coulda didn't. I think there are some fundamentals that one can apply. For instance consult some experts and avoid go it alone opinions. Live within your means. Diversify some. All in the stock market may not be a good thing. Similarly all in real estate is not good either.

An interesting commentary on biz news the other day. Of twenty major corporations existing in the 1980's none of them exist today. Possibly taken over or gone out of business? I believe in being nimble moneywise. Find an honest broker that works for you and not himself.

Just like my indy car repair guy. Just retired after thirty years in business. He sold to a young man who worked for him for seven years. I took my Lexus to him to replace a suspension strut and an alignment. I asked him to show me the leaky struct before he starts working on it. He said no problem and he would. Find good honest people to work with you whether it be investment advice or somebody to work on your car.

Cheers, Guy
