It's a very good time to make some long term investments and keep. But my luck is bad where the stocks are concerned, I entered the market when it was at a high and now I am just stuck with all my money in there. The markets are bad all over the world.

I still haven't made up my mind about it yet, but I think it'd be fun to think that I own a piece of a company that I admire. (Two examples that come to mind: Honda and Apple.) So far, I've jumped right in with my investing. Sometimes I hate it when I check it and the amounts have gone down, but then I always think, "Hey, now's a great time to put more in and get more for my dollars." Certainly helps keeping a positive spin on things. My emotions aren't really tied into it, other than my hopes that for as tiny as my portfolio is right now, it's well balanced too.

We had a guest speaker at work and he really focused on the point that emotions can harm you financially. Go for the long haul and don't stress too much about fluctuations. So true Kyle.
