It may take years to recover BUT...unless you are near retirement within the next 4 years or maybe 5,you/we all should be ok.
If you have cash sticking around,then live on the cash and hope that your investments recover. We all just have to cut down a bit on things we don't need.
Let's face it...most of us have too much stuff around our houses now. Pare down a bit and ride it out.
Other than that,we can't really do too much about it. The whole world will be/is suffering.
Hopefully whomever(let's not get political here) wins the election will find a way to jumpstart the economy.
We have recovered from bad situations before and I am sure that we can do it again.
Keep the faith baby!!!
