Everyone stay calm…it doesn’t matter if you clients lose all of their money, the mkt averages 10 % over the past 100 years.

everthing is good,



Mortgage late payments are at RECORD highs,



unemployment 10 + %



the U.S. dollar is sinking



home prices deteriorating



S & P p/e at lofty levels



Debt as a % of gdp over 100 %



Banks STILL have billions of crap on the books. ( by the way this goes hand and hand with home prices falling)



Insiders selling stocks



Deficit exploding



Stuck in a war that can’t be won



credit mkts for the most part frozen



wages flat for a long time



health care cost skyrocket



BUT NONE OF THIS MATTERS AT ALL BECAUSE THE STOCK MKT HAS ANNUALIZED 10 % SINCE FOREVER



Dec 31, 2009 statement

Client : why am I still not even from 2007 ?

FA : Hell, what are you worried about, the mkt annualizes 10 %

Client : But I have less money.

FA: That does not matter mr. Client look what happened from 1982 until 1999

Client : What about now . I’m still down 38 % from 2007

FA: Again don’t you listen…the mkt was had 17 great years form 1982 until 1999. Why are you worried.

Client: What the past have to do with the present

FA: nothing really. I just have to keep telling you that because you pay me 1.5 % fee every year and my job is to convince you to hang in there. Remember , you money manager has out performed the mkt by 3 % points . So aren’t you just thrilled that you could be down even more.

Client: I’m not sure I understand , but you are the professional.

FA: Good I’m glad I cleared that up for you. Now may I ask …Do you know anyone else that could benefit from my services?

ppss   your looking out the back window
