-$400 in my stock account for the year (some have gone up, others have come down). I will have to start looking to buy stuff again.
Unsure effect on my 401k, but probably took the biggest hit
Company stock has gone up this year.
No effect on my job or outlook.
I bought my first house (with 20% down) during this collapse for a good price. Some houses have come down $20,000, I think mine might be down $5,000 if I wanted to sell it. House prices didn't go up too much or down too much here. I have enough saved to last a year or two without working.
After I get done with my next project (which I have saved up enough money for ~$6,000), I will just start saving everything I make again. My monthly bills are so low that increases in food prices, nat gas and electric rates are the only things that effect me. I use 10 gallons of gas a month, and it will be even less next year.
