Putting a number on it
Without delving into my personal finances too much, I think this little line from my account sums it up:
Personal Rate of Return from 01/01/2008 to 09/26/2008 is -13.5%
Read that again. Since the beginning of the year I’ve lost 13.5%, and most of my money is not in the US markets, but overseas. Joy! The only slight solace I might take is that my employer match wiped out that loss at least.
