From Kenneth Fisher

If you're 35, 45, or even 55 - you have a very long time horizon - 40 years or vastly more. That is you, and/or your spouse, are likely to live about that long, and you'll be investing the whole way.

Ultimately, good technology with a cost advantage will win out over paranoia.
