Ouch!

The stock market? Seriously? I just lost around $300 in 2 weeks, and I know that's paltry compared to what most people have lost. Good thing I don't need that money for another forty years-- I feel bad for the older people who need it soon. In all honesty, I am starting to get pretty nervous about this, especially since people are going absolutely crazy and making everything worse. Have they learned nothing from our country's history? But I guess there's not too much I can do about it, so we'll see how it pans out in the next few months I guess. Hopefully it will at least stabilize soon!

Just lay low and hope for the best! $300 isn't so bad. As long as you're earning and schooling you'll come out well in the long run.

Thanks for the comment. I'll be sure to post when I hear about my job!

It's scary, isn't it? I've lost about $2,000 (from what I can see...some accounts I can't check on a daily basis). Still, I'm in it for the long run too and trying not to panic...
