Personally, I prefer roller coaster rides at amusement parks, rather than in my retirement accounts, and we're curious how the stock market tumbles have impacted you.
Are you feeling less confident, and putting off major purchases like a car or a house as a result? Or has the potential for better financing made you more certain that this is the right time to buy?
We're also wondering about parents of college bound kids who might be considering deferring 529 plan withdrawals --- or workers weighing cutting retirement fund contributions altogether.
If this market tumble is affecting your plans, please send me an email at lkay@baltsun.com --- we're working on a story and would appreciate talking to you further.
