You did better than the vast majority of investors. Congratulations. That is impressive.

I look at things like WalMart at PE's of 40 to one and wonder if equities are not going to be disapointing for the next ten to twenty years. That is a far cry from what Ben Graham would have considered a value stock. Take a lot of years of earnings to equal paying a decent return on the investment.

But I am usualy wrong so pay no attention.
