I shouldn't have turned on CNN. The stock market was a disaster today. Seriously....why would either Obama or McCain actually want to be in the White House in the middle of this terrible economic crisis? It seems like a no win situation. If Obama gets in it will probably be by the skin of his teeth and the pressure will be on for him to do something big in his first term. Not sure he'd get a second chance and not sure he'll be able to put policies in place to right the ship. If McCain gets in and continues to hold up W.'s policies (economy, war, etc), I doubt this ship will get right either. Add to this that there seems to be a lack of creativity in Washington to come up with better solutions to things such as the subprime mortgage meltdown... its just a mess. Nevertheless, I'm going to continue to stay positive, focused, and faithful and keep moving forward. I've heard that when other people are scared, that is the time to push forward and invest wisely but aggressively...and when people are investing aggressively and excited, that's the time you should be more conservative.
I've gotta get busy with this real estate investing to make up for the massive losses in my 401(k) and IRA over the past week.
That's all for now.
