I'm sorry, but people need to get real. In the past 5 years, oil QUADRUPLED. If you feel entitled to a multiplication by 7 and complain if it doesn't happen, you are not a long term investment. You are a quick profits addict.
On top of that, it's not very wise to have all your wealth in stocks a fortnight before retirement, but I'm not willing to blame people for being careless. On the other hand, I don't feel ready to pity those who quadrupled their savings with oil shares (that I personally shun on ethical grounds). "The womb that spawned that thing is fertile yet"
