Hey, thanks GOP! My retirement plan FINALLY was doing well after the 2008 debacle...

I'm locked in for another month or so. By the I'm able to move money around, it looks as if half of it will be gone again thanks to Boehners games. You mother fucking asshole rich douche bags don't give a shit about real people. Fuck you, Boehner, and anyone in DC with an (R) after their name.

And now is what would be called a buying opportunity.

The Oracle of Omaha always recomends buying while others are panicking.

I started a private pension plan almost a year ago. It's very diversified and has performed very well...so far. Supposedly it is set up in such a way as to not be so negatively affected by market hiccups. That's proved to be true. But there hasn't been a government shutdown before.

After 2008, I lost nearly half my old 401k, as most did. It made some gains so I took the money and rolled it into a private pension. It's been doing great...now I'm just afraid the millionaire fucks in Congress are going to sabotage the whole thing AGAIN, and I'll be back to square -3.
