Most Americans haven’t been so lucky.


One of the silliest arguments I had on here a few weeks ago was that Americans without stocks have gotten blasted while at least stock owning Americans have come out a little ahead.

People couldn't fathom this concept. The bottom 50% of the country owns 0.6% of the stocks in existence, so they're just getting shredded through all this.

And out of the top 50%, how many are realizing these gains before the next downturn? While it is great that my retirement accounts are up, I'm paying out the nose for groceries and other items.
