No? I plan on working 30-40 years - I just want my investments to grow throughout that time period so when I retire I can live off what I've earned. As best I can tell, the only people that want "growth above all else" are the top .01% who have enough money in the bank that they can make all of their income from buying and selling stocks, as well as the hedge fund managers that get a cut of the short-term profits. The average working-class folks that just put money into a 401k couldn't care less if this quarter is a record quarter - they care what their investment does over a much, much longer period of time.
