    All our $$$ is with a broker. I talked to him last week and he's holding some $$$ aside to jump on a few things. I leave all that up to him as he's done a pretty good job for the last 15-20 years. I don't know how all this is going to play out, but it seems like a good time to me to jump on a few safe stocks while they're down.

    No cash. Kids ate all my IRA. Retirement tools never said "Don't forget to pad your account by 2,000% because you will become the 'Bank of Dad'"..........

    Wish I did. Silly, but Americans will buy anything on sale.............Except Stocks.

    I maxed out my 401K at 20% pretax and another 8% post tax. I fell like I am buying at a discount. When things get back to normal it should give me a pretty good bump. If they don’t I am also buying a couple thousand rounds of various ammo a month as well so I am covered either way.
