Yikes. I opened up my 401K statement yesterday and found out that in 2008, I lost over $100,000!!! One hundred thousand freaking dollars!!! This doesn't even include my other mutual funds outside of my 401K. That's like a lot of J.Crew clothes and Madonna concerts (well, maybe not that many Madonna concerts). See, this is the reason I haven't looked at my statement in the last few years. I have no idea what possessed me to open that envelop this past weekend. I shall never do that again.
So as a fix, I bought lottery ticket today. The jackpot is like $200+ million, so that should make up for my 401K losses. I know God is great, so He will look down upon me and say, "Dude, I feel so freaking bad for you, I am going to do you a favor and let you win the Mega Million. So don't you worry your little human head over such trivial matter." Yup, God is great.
