A NYT blog talked about what people's plan might be if they lost everything.
Obviously "everything" only refers to money in the article. For me if a person is still healthy and has friends, he still got a lot.
MM house is pretty gloomy these days I have to admit. We have probably lost half our net worth ( maybe more, I don't really want to know) and we are losing more everyday. MM didn't go to sleep for the whole night again last night, and that's at least the 3rd time of this week.
"At least we're are still young and we can make money," this is something I said to MM a lot these days and he is working on a job application.
Really, what can one do in such a situation? Try to keep healthy and less-frustrated I guess. On the positive side, we haven't lost all of money (knock,knock); I still got a job (at least for the next 22 months) that pays our bills; we live in a country with fairly good social benefits...
I am holding up OK. Thanks for all those early "training"/frustration of being a trader's partner, now I am kind of used to losing money "news" and sleeping alone for the whole night.
I do worry about MM's health though. Just the other day I somehow felt his face is one size smaller, hopefully that is just my illusion. I have to try harder in convincing him it is not a good time to be on diet. I prefer a big healthy bear than a slim sick one!
