J. asked:


In mid-2008, I was so proud of the money I had been working hard for and saving for retirement. I also had some money in a taxable investment account. Then at the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009, I was very disappointed as I saw the value of my hard-earned savings/investments plummet to a sad number indeed.

To put it simply, when will things be better again?
