Super duper Upset

The downward market trend in the US is making a lot of people unhappy.

Me especially.

I just checked my 401k account and saw that between July to September 2008, I lost $7k.

Upset is too mild a word to describe how I'm feeling right now.

Hi Berry, salamat :)

I try not to think about it and I also try to keep in mind that it's okay to lose money in investments paminsan minsan because it's really all about long term earnings.

Sigh. Hirap lang bitawan yung sama ng loob kasi mahirap kumita and parang isang blink lang, wala na.

Just had lunch with some friends kanina and we were talking about this, ganon rin pala sila and they've lost even more money.

Not naman that I'm happy about other people being in bad situations, pero parang nakagaan ng loob ko to hear that we're not alone in this crisis.

Actually, super nakakalungkot kung ikaw lang ang may ganung situation. Pero if many are in that situation, then at least you know na normal pa yung mga nangyayaring pagbagsak ng kinikita, or kung anu man

alam mo naman ang palitan ng dollar to peso :) super benefit kaming nasa pinas hehehe
