At one point I spent a whole year not paying one damn bit of attention to it...
My portfolio plunged to a staggering, disturbing low...
Then it came back up.

Since that experience (perspective), I've understood the name of the game.
People need to relax...
But they also need to avoid investing any money they care to lose.
If it's gonna fuck your mind/life up that much to see your portfolio plummet with the ride?
You couldn't afford to make that investment in the first place.
Be smart. Don't invest anything you can't stand to lose.
