Millions of people just saw an entire years worth of gains evaporate in their retirement accounts. And the moron responsible still walks the earth.
Will the moron(s) (2) be walking the Earth a year from now? I think not. But I could be wrong. I think not as lopping 15% from the stock market in a week for no other reason than narcissism is kind of a big deal.
I remember contests where you could bet on when a junked car or or pickup would fall through the ice. Pick a date and the time of day. If we had enough members we could do something like that. Too bad we don't.
