Think back if you can to the last day of March 2007.

• Was your throat tight?
• Did you feel as if the world was collapsing in on you?
• Were you worried that the global economy was going to wash away your home like some financial tsunami?
• Did you feel like you needed a bailout and that everyone else in America earning less than $75K per year probably needed one too?
• Did you actively make plans to abandon your 401K at work and bury your money in mason jars in the back yard?
