No problem, I can understand your frustration. I am still a young person who is just looking at the future and the future of my kids beyond my time here, of course you need help right now. My dad is around your age and of most of his hard work/savings/retirement went up in smoke last year.

I apologize for my irrational remarks ("freaking idiot", I get too heated on occasion, lost money as well last year) a lot of frustration from all sides.

No problem !

I know what you mean about the market. My wife left some phone stock that was worth about 16K when she died 2 years ago,and is now worth MAYBE 13K. Meanwhile,the cost of living goes up-up-up.

Ah, but what the hell : Any day you wake up without a shovelful of dirt in your face ....you’re ahead of the game !
