Scary on Paper


The stock market has taken quite a tumble.
A crash, really.
I have money invested (broadly) in the market.  I have had such investments for 35 years.  This is my fourth big crash, actually.   I have learned to accept—in the short term—the loss is on paper.
Not that scary.  Maybe scary in the same way a Steven King passage is.  Scary in the way an illustration of a grizzly bear is.
It’s on paper.
Close the book.  Scoop up the cat.   Watch the Food Network.
