It is not a get rich quick book but a slow march through the most volatile market in history.  

Of course, you have to understand the volatility of your stocks and manage risk by having extra cash just in case, as David mentioned.

Just install the sw on some non-volatile medium like a chip or partition the drive and blast the other partition.

You will likely find a good many folks who would like better returns with better security and less volatility than Wall Street, especially in today's political climate.Most of the investors in my local group have little or none of their own money or credit in their deals.

REIT’s can pay monthly dividend as they are required to pay about 90% of there profits to shareholders each year for tax purposes. you desire and you can super charge your monthly income and reduce your volatility and risk with selling options.

So if CA crashes, my hedge would be #4 and #2, since FL pretty volatile too.

Condos are also especially volatile in real estate cycles - first to drop in value and last to recover.

The rate (on the primary) had a lot of volatility over the three weeks when I was closing so I get that, but 5% sounds high on a multiplex.

When one considers there were only 17 trading days in the previous fifty years when the S&P rose or fell more than 5% in a day, then I think you can appreciate the unprecedented volatility we have experienced!

I still believe there is a good chance of enjoying one, maybe two, positive quarters later this year or early next; however, a crisis of this magnitude doesn't suddenly fade into obscurity, just because the economy no longer shrinks at an annual rate of 6-8%.Going forward, not only will economic growth disappoint, but the economic cycles will become more volatile again (see chart 1) with several boom/bust cycles packed into the next couple of decades.
