I'm obviously talking about the value of the IRA that was pummeled during the end of Bush's presidency and now is back so somewhat normal.

And I was looking at the wrong chart, IRA only was 51%, and I'm glad it's back.

absolutely... your best, most recent effort to defend your earthly master, and in this case, discount the comments by Rubio was to grossly overstate the gains of "one " of your IRA's...I'll give you credit for a speedy correction after being called on it as Obama's revision of phony econmic numbers usually appear a week or two or more after he has misused the data, your elation over gains that can be mainly credited to the works of Bernanke Maidoff and the Toothfairy remind me a little of Soros proclaiming during the depth of the recession that he'd "had a very good year"...gloating over unsubstantiable and now "revised" claims and assailing Rubio in doing so is that your ONLY example that things might be better...Spence's IRA? .......cause I don't think it's gonna move too many people....

It was one measure, one BIG measure that impacts every American and benefits tens of millions of Americans significantly.

Please put at least a little effort in it.

Too bad, up 72.84% since Obama took the reins.

Most money managers reccomend at least 5-10% in a well diversified portfolio.

Don't think there's any in my 401K but the money market could have a bit.
