YUP! ITS A BEAST - mainly used for Mexico trips and winter (really well insulated) - its so slow that its dangerous to drive on US highways - its a diesel w top speed of 55mph and up hill is like 30mph - finding parts and a good mechanic is a problem - I have another camper that I use for cruising around the US.Ha!! I saw this mutant rig on the samba awhile back. It’s yours??!
Mid-year check of the 401k and hey, what do you know, year to date am down less than the S&P 500 (which is down around 20% for year to date).
Hopefully the last 6 months of auto-buy ins every two weeks pays off when I need to start taking $ from this in 5-10 yrs.

You are doing better than most! its still worth exiting for the next 9-12 months - who need it? so much uncertainty - especially with regards to Interest rate hikes - at least 2 more in the next 6 months and at best stays flat from there but there could be more - how much more? - could 30 year fixed get over 10%? - Possible! real estate, 2nd homes and luxury goods will be the first to go - be patient - opportunities for those with cash will be everywhere - real assets will be cheap - art, classic cars, vacation homes - wait for it - its bubbling and could exploded.Follow-up end with (close to) end of the year rate of return:... from -14.4% to -11.3%.

This is the way.Do you need those stocks right now? i don’t. I’m a buyer all Q1 with my 401 contributions, and beyond, if the market stays soft I’ll buy more cheap ETF shares. If you have more than a 5 year horizon and have a decent income you should be salivating at all the buying opportunity that may be coming our way (or not, hell do i know)
That looks kind of like my stuff. Keep DCA'ing and starting to do a little more swing trading, now that the overall picture is getting clearer.Follow-up end with (close to) end of the year rate of return:... from -14.4% to -11.3%.
