The First One-Liner: Getting Back to even

I've decided that times like these call not for the long essays I like, but for short nuggets of financial guidance. Here's the first.

Have an investment that has lost value? Waiting for it to just get back to what you paid for it? Deciding you'll sell an investment after it gets back to what you paid for it is like saying, "I'm going to keep dating this jerk until he starts treating me right, and then I'm dumping him!"
