My initial reaction to this as my portfolio plummeted was “YIKES!”
But it didn’t take long for my mustachian brain to pick back up again and say “Awesome!”
So while my NW is down, it’s great for several reasons. First, it means I’m a lot more invested in the market than I was, so my net worth will naturally fluctuate more! Second, it means stocks are on sale! I buy on the 5th and 20th of each month via auto investing, so I’m a happy camper. Third, August is a three paycheck month, so I’m actually really hoping that stocks keep falling a bit so I can put an extra $800 in!
