This is the highest drop, in terms of straight points, in my lifetime. The worst of my lifetime, in terms of percentage was in October of 1987, which was a 500+ point plunge. I know I wouldn't have the stomach to "play the market"! Day trading and all that. Any 90+ year olds out there who were alive for the '29 crash?

No it's not the highest drop, you surely missed the biggest one-day point drop that came earlier this year. On February 5, the Dow fell 1,175.21 points.
