Ah, For Those Good Old Wall Street Days

Remember when people were asserting that the sky was the limit for the Dow Jones Industrial Average?

Well, let's see. If you had invested 11 grand in blue chip stocks when Dow 36,000 was published in September 1999, you'd be fortunate to have 9 grand to stuff under a mattress in the master suite of your McMansion.

Oh, your McMansion was foreclosed on? So sorry.
