Re:
FSI, diversifying would have helped a little -- instead of plummeting to a big fat ZERO, if those folks had diversified perhaps they'd
only be down 40%. . . . But yes, otherwise I agree with you. (I say "only" with a grain of salt. "Only" for some is a huge amount!)

I'm mostly disappointed in myself
when I can see what needs to be done - and within my own capability - but to date haven't done anything about it

I am not sure diversifying exactly helped in this case. This recession/depression/whatever you want to call it seemingly affects all businesses unless you're a bankruptcy attorney, I guess.

Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.
Proverbs 13:12
From a master on disappointment: Job 6:14
[ My So-Called Friends ] "When desperate people give up on God Almighty, their friends, at least, should stick with them. But my brothers are fickle as a gulch in the desert— one day they're gushing with water From melting ice and snow cascading out of the mountains, But by midsummer they're dry, gullies baked dry in the sun. Travelers who spot them and go out of their way for a drink end up in a waterless gulch and die of thirst. Merchant caravans from Tema see them and expect water, tourists from Sheba hope for a cool drink. They arrive so confident—but what a disappointment!..."
May your back soon feel right as rain and a wonderful blessing turn your life and spirits around.
