My hubby and I have been through every downturn since the 70's oil crisis. Each time seems to hit just when we're feeling as though we're finally getting ahead. This time, we're painfully too close to retirement age and have no hope of rebuilding as quickly as we've lost everything. But, my DH manages to take things in stride. Our portfolio manager called to make an appointment and we just laughed that we haven't much left to manage.
But, DH and I handle things much differently. He has a great sense of humor. I crave stability and security, so I'm more likely to feel the stress. I run. DH trades on eBay - LOL!
