(34,661 posts)orchestrated mega theft. Anyone who had AIG or Lehman Stock lost their collective rear ends. Since that day,we check Bloomberg at least once daily and have all our IRA's in what we call a tentative sell status. And that we update at least twice weekly not to get caught again like 2008.
