Recent estimates say that health care spending accounts for more than 16% of the U.S. economy. In personal terms, this means health care will take one out of every six dollars you earn. And after housing, food and energy costs -- and your taxes -- there’s not much left for saving, never mind luxury.

Unemployment is high. Earnings are horrible. Deficits are out of control. House prices are still under pressure. And auto sales are flat. Yet the stock market is up about 40% from its March lows.
Let’s say that you’re convinced the market is going to collapse, -- so you sell. And you get stopped out. Let’s say you sell again. And get stopped out. Sell again. Stopped out. So you wait for the market to turn down and you sell into the decline. The market bounces and you get stopped out yet again. Then the market goes back down in earnest – but without you. Does this sound familiar? If so, it doesn’t have to be that way.
