Words of wisdom
OK, there's no doubt about it, this has been one heck of a week. People are worried and very nervous. In today's blog entry I am listing some articles that I have read over the past week or so that I think are particularly helpful and insightful. These are really great articles and I won't even attempt to summarize them -- you should read them in their entirety. Hopefully they will make you feel less anxious about all the recent market turmoil.
