I have lost a large portion of my wealth in the last two years.

Stocks, IRA, etc.. I have enough in secure savings to buy more real estate
if and when housing prices tank. Otherwise I will have to wait until my stocks
hopefully rebound in a few years. I should be retired now at 63, but that will have to wait until I have regained some of my losses.

I feel very fortunate that we pulled enough money from our investments
to pay off our vacation home. That made this bitter pill easier to swallow.
That was the only debt we had, so things could have been worse.

This article is the Left trying to normalize the destruction of wealth in this country due to their idiotic policies. They are trying to make the idiots that voted for them believe that the decline in the Economy is a good thing so that those same morons will keep voting for the politicians that put them in this position.

Unfortunately, it will work on many people in this country that have been indoctrinated in public schools and not taught critical thinking skills.

my daughter bought low and sold high in one of the hottest markets in the country. her husband retrained for a different job in a similar field and they bought an RV also do air b&b's when he travels. Currently they're just waiting on the market to fall in an area they like and is centrally located to the type of work he does. they weren't failing but just bored and adventurous.
meanwhile I see a labor shortage around here everywhere.

Once again, you display a complete lack of understanding of the economy and how everyday people interact with it. Since Biden has been elected, I have lost well over $100,000 in my investments. As I have still a few years from retirement, (even more now thanks to the tomato can that sits in the White House) I can hope that these Left-wing loonies are voted out of office and some sanity is introduced into the policy-making before my retirement, giving my investments time to recover.

Over half of US households are invested in the stock market, the most popular means is through mutal funds. The 401K has encouraged many Americans to invest in the stock market.

People watch their 401K balances closer than their children's Internet usage. It's going to be nigh on impossible to convince them their losses are a good thing because the rich suffer more.

If Democrats were confident their nominee actually received more than 80 million votes they wouldn't have more troops occupying Washington, DC than Lincoln had defending the city during the Civil War. Not Joe Biden, Kim Jung Biden.

People like Salty believe that only Rich people have 401k's, IRA's, mutual funds.

It's kind of like saying, "only rich people have jobs"
