That BoA investment call was terrifying, and this is the first time I'm concerned about a major market crash. Have we really hit the take your money and run point?

Depends on your personal situation. If you are retiring in few months or a year, then maybe. If you don’t have any or low liquidity and you want cash in hand , then maybe a part of it. Otherwise I’m not sure what “run point “ means. You want to sell all , pay taxes on it based on BAC report ? And then what ? Wait for the crash ? Predict the bottom so that reinvest? Or keep your money under the mattresses

Your $100 bucks invested just before dot com crash would be $400-500 odd today- which would’ve included the dot com crash and 2008 crash. Goes without saying $100 in cash would’ve gone down in value. It would’ve been $200 if you had invested in savings account with high yield. So it’s your choice. You can bet on end of the markets and cash it all out. Or put it all on savings account. Or an hybrid approach. Crash always happens.
