I just listened to financial expert (me :o) that said if Hoist kept spending money on Cybil there would never be a recession.
Go Hoist!

Due to today's rapidly changing stock market and the financial conditions in industry, the following acronyms and terms have had to be revised for investors in order to more clearly reflect today's economic market place:

CEO -- chief embezzlement officer.

CFO -- corporate fraud officer.

BULL MARKET -- A random market movement causing an investor to mistake himself for a financial genius.

BEAR MARKET -- A 6 to 18 month period when the kids get no allowance the wife gets no jewelry, and the husband gets no sex.

VALUE INVESTING -- The art of buying low and selling lower.

P/E RATIO -- The percentage of investors wetting their pants as the market keeps crashing.

BROKER -- What my broker has made me.

STANDARD & POOR -- Your life in a nutshell.

STOCK ANALYST -- Idiot who just downgraded your stock.

STOCK SPLIT -- When your ex-wife and her lawyer split your assets equally between themselves.

FINANCIAL PLANNER -- A guy whose phone has been disconnected.

MARKET CORRECTION -- The day after you buy stocks.

CASH FLOW -- The movement your money makes as it disappears down the toilet.

YAHOO -- What you yell after selling it to some poor sucker for $240 per share.

WINDOWS 2000 -- What you jump out of when you're the sucker who bought Yahoo @ $240 per share.

INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR -- Past year investor who's now locked up in a nuthouse.

PROFIT -- an archaic word no longer in use.

 ;D ;D ;D

I'm sick to my stomach today. Why ? Not because of the small amount of money my wife and I have lost on our investments, but because of sitting here helpless to do anything to prevent everything my Mom and Dad worked for from this disaster. While in Maine this summer, as previously mentioned, I managed to get my mother's affairs in order and ensure that people outside the family had no control over anything. In the process of doing that, I came upon a ledger my Dad had kept for the last five years of his life. Reading the daily entries it is obvious what he was working toward and at the end, he had achieved his goal and surpassed it. This knowledge, added to what he told me a few days before he died and the changes to his will that my Aunt, (his sister) blocked for reasons unknown to any of us, paint a clear picture of his intentions as to the legacy he hoped to leave for my brother and I and our children. I should add also that he and my mother made sacrifices that fall just short of dumb in getting to where my Dad wanted before he died. I spent a lot of money repairing things that had been let go for years so that my Dad could play financier. I can't get into his head because he's gone, but I can only remember how single minded of purpose he could be at times and attribute this to that mentality. In any event, his dream has lost 35% of it's worth in the past two months and it will take years for it to recover. Years, I have to admit to myself my mother doesn't have. So I'm sitting here feeling helpless and impotent. I'm supposed to be looking out for the family's interests and there's not a damn thing I can do except watch everything my Dad worked for get drained of it's value. If anyone's got any advice, I'm all ears, but pleae bear in mind, that we're talking at best maybe 5 years to try to recover.

Hope the high yield stocks keep yielding, take the divi's and batten down on the valuation...
It is tough for me not to buy a little brk-b today with some cvx and bac thrown in for the yield...
