I'm up 39 percent over the last 2 years and im sure there is a pull back coming. I'm protecting my profits. I will continue to contribute to my 401k but there is just no value at the moment. Its crazy how many times companies are trading their earnings


Thoughts?
How old are you and how long have you been in the market?

Retirement wise, is your net worth on track for someone your age (30s = $300-400K, 40s = $500-700K, 50s = $700K-1.3M)?

When you talk about this 39% gain in the past 2 years, is this 4 figures, 5 figures, 6 figures?

What were these investments in? Stocks? Funds?

Do you have any other investment/retirement accounts? If so, how well are they funded?
