I’m not. Not letting emotion control my investment strategy.

I’m buying on a regular cadence and not even paying attention to the day by day news. Sticking with a long term investment plan.

I don’t care if the market goes down 5 years in a row. If I have an income, I’m still buying on a regular cadence.

All our investments are long-term and mostly in index funds.
