and, let's be clear for context - what's happening in the market is not similar to 2008 or 1987. not any more.
the infamous 1929 crash wiped out 25% of the value of the market.
we've lost around 35% so far.
this is the worst crash, ever.
but, the money's still there, and then some. so, if you can get confidence up, it should come back - creating fools out of a lot of people who are going to end up selling low and buying high.
