Truth.

But human emotion being what it is, buying when everyone else is selling takes some brass 'nads.

When I started buying back in February and early March, 2009 and the market continued to drop for a couple of weeks afterwards, I didn't think I was very smart. I was doing some heavy-duty second guessing of myself.

But, I just kept taking deep breaths and buying more.
