Don’t we all wish we had kept a closer eye on the events prior to 2008 and 2009 and sold our positions prior to that! Although the companies have done well and survived, the stock holders weren’t (in my opinion) rewarded enough so I sold my positions. I confess to being an amateur on this after the 2008 crash.

This spring, the gym closed down and sold off their equipment at a deep discount so now I am well stocked for any kettlebell weight I want to use. We bought our house as a short sale in 2008. It doesn’t blend ice as well and the way it is designed makes it super messy if you have to add ingredients in two stages.

As an adult, I use both cash and credit as well as checks. In 2008-2009 when we had the credit crunch and recession, there was at least one day when stores were not accepting credit. If you didn’t have cash to spend that day, you may well have been stranded out of gas. If I buy anything online, I use credit.

Some banks also hit you with a loss of a portion of principal as well, so it’s important to read the rules and check CD rates before you invest. But when inflation falls, the bond’s payment falls as well. I consider those more risky because you have not just the interest rate risk, but the default risk as well.”
