Losing money?

[Birchtree]

Really, a $9K loss on a $400K account is peanuts - hold the line and continue to buy cheaper. Better days are ahead.

Folks,

You are responding to a comment from SPAC1 on 2009/02/17. But great advice. If he/she followed it - and allocated to more risk than he/she was already at - than there are many Winnebagos (or maybe one Winnebago, a boat, and a captain/driver) in his future.

I took BTs advice and bought tons of shares when the prices were crashing. Yummy. Just watched the History Channels 'Men Who Built America' last night. BT is like JP Morgan - "Buy When There is Blood in the Streets". I see a trickle of blood now. What a joy. I get to grind on the victims of a demagogue for a few years and enjoy the view from a captains seat in the relatively near future. Than you Governor Moonbeam!!! Hope things go well for you...

Boghie - Sharp eye. I read all comments up to yours and didn't notice they were responding to a question from 2009.

Hello everyone. I have noticed that over the past few months, my overall balance has decreased even though I am adding money. How does this work. Because the share prices are cheaper than what I bought them for creates a debt of some sort?

I am still relatively new to all this, and want to make sure that I dont end up with all my money gone. I understand that we are in a recession of sorts, but expect to bounce back. When it does bounce back, will the share prices go up, creating a greater return? Thanks, and sorry to sound so dumb :toung:

Almost 5 years later... I bet that account is looking quite nice these days with the record highs :-D
