RE: RE: RE: RE: Globe Investor Article - November A balanced portfolio is up 10% this year. If Bladerummer didn't make any money this year, he should get out of the stock market. If he cries this much in a up year, I can't imagine what he did in 2008-09 during the crash. As much as people where crying then, if they stayed the course and where properly invested, they would have made all that money that was lost during the crash. Precision Drilling along with a few others that are down this years are part of my portfolio, but the majority of my stocks are up, including Bank of America which is up 90%. Maybe next year will be Precision's Drilling turn.
9.) Commit to judging your investing success not by how you’re doing a few months from now, but where you are in 10 years.
