Noooo! Not again Dow drops over 500 points today! Things are looking grim right now. Your house is worth less than when you bought it, gas prices at the pump are still at an all time high, food prices are rising, and on top of that the stock market is crashing. It’s time for some perspective. Take a look at a chart of the stock market since October 1st 1928. The current credit crisis is nothing more than a small blip on the radar screen.
