@Stewballs01 Yeah, it's a s___ state of affairs. I, like many I'm sure, are holding on, but this is going to take some sacrifice to implement a revised financial plan. I see it as a year down the drain, effectively. Plans have to be put off. Alternative incomes arranged. Whatever can be done to get through the next 9 - 12 months. That's my outlook. Not everyone has the ability to "top up at these prices". Those who can, good luck to you, but this advice doesn't apply to many.

So yes, hang in there if you can. I feel for those who are about to retire or might have to sell to get by (or keep working), and have eroded their wealth because of this mess.
