I invested on behalf of my husband - and some of my own money - not much - but it is down with about 66%. When he asks how it goes, I say it is fire and brimstone - and that he should just forget about the money for now. It is not much anyway. Compared to the rest of our funds. Of course it would be excellent to have earned a lot of money like you see others have, but for now, I am content with not earning money, and just following the huuuuge dip we are in at the moment. I do hope things turn for the better. For those friends who lost, I dont mention that. It was their own choice.
People are very sensitive about money and I cannot blame them money is a very important part of our lives so the most important thing is if you have a partner is to be completely honest about the way your investments are doing, it can be painful to hear the truth sometimes but it is necessary, so if you took the time to explain to your partner about the possibilities of losing money through your investment then there is not going to to be a problem but if your partner did not understood that clearly then some problems may happen.
