And retirement. The market has been doing woefully bad lately…so I just try not to look at my portfolio. It’s just so hard to ignore, especially when in the last few months, I felt like I was doing a good thing by investing a little bit more into both my and Shaw’s retirement, as well as Graem’s 529 account. All those additional investments have wasted away with the market downswing in the last few weeks.

My one brokerage account (what was I thinking??) has dwindled away to nearly nothing. I’m just trying to hold out on my regular mutual fund accounts.
