Opinion
March was rough. Our net worth dropped $53,000 in one month and we officially lost millionaire status.
But when you zoom out, a 5% drop that matches a 5% market selloff isn't a disaster. The market went down, we went down with it, and now everything is on sale. I'm not panicking. I'm shopping.
A down market is actually a gift if you've got time on your side. You're buying the same companies at a lower price, and when the market recovers — and it always has, over every 20-year period in history — those cheaper shares become rocket fuel. Nobody knows if that recovery takes 10 days, 10 months, or 10 years. But we keep buying either way.
Let me know if your portfolio dropped last month and what you're doing about it. I know some of you are using your portfolios for income, so I'm curious to hear about it!

Here's your weekly helping of interesting investing information and insights. Opinion Jonathan Boyar was on The Compound and Friends podcast and had the most brilliant phrase I've heard in years - Premature Accumulation! They were talking about Microsoft (MSFT), how cheap it's getting (FYI I'm about to hit the MSFT buy button) and that they're buying. But because we don't know where the exact bottom is, we may buy way before a stock reaches its lowest point. I've experienced premature...
