Morgan said, you know, the worst thing to see is your neighbor getting rich because you're going to make bad decisions. And I'm paraphrasing it. But that's the worst thing to see because then you're going to want to do what they're doing. And they're probably full of you-know-what anyway.

So, again, stick with these plans and invest for the long term, and you'll do really, really well, I'm pretty confident to say.

Here's one that I was talking about three weeks ago, okay, when the market was looking pretty dour. The credit markets continue to function just fine. I said, if there's a monster under the bed, we would have had more stress in the credit markets. When the S&P 500 was flirting with a bear market just a couple weeks ago, I'm going to get a little geeky, but you can look this up, listeners.

It's free data. Spreads, like investment-grade corporate spreads, BBB spreads, were not blowing out. Well, it's just... Keep it real simple. When those things blow out, that's the credit markets way of saying we're worried about the monster under the bed. We didn't see that earlier this month. And sure enough, here we are now with the market come off the mat in a big, big way.

And the credit markets are still quite calm. You know, the VIX, the volatility gauge, it's a function. Hopefully people have heard of the VIX. And when it spikes, it shows fear out there. It's what the options market thinks volatility will do. in 30 days in the future. So that's a mouthful, but just real simple. About three weeks ago, the VIX spiked above 60 on a Monday.
