By "the mighty have fallen" I meant all of us, not just you, Pic. That's why I mentioned the others in my post, and I think my post bore that out. I actually posted to try to defend your frustration. Sorry I was not clear. Reading it over again, I can see why you thought I was targeting you. That was not my intention.
I am not ashamed of how the markets have treated me...I get what I deserve when I choose to invest, whether up or down.
Again, sorry for the misunderstanding. I will not post anymore.
