    If you just use a good no-load mutual fund and not worry about the ups and downs you should be fine. Historically, you will make well over the 5%. Just set it up to auto draft from your checking or savings on a monthly basis so you dollar-cost average, or do payroll deduct and don't look back. I started funds for my kids in 2009 and just pulled them up to look. They have averaged 14.47% over that 10 years. The best year was over 22% and there were a couple of years that they went down. But, long term is the goal. You have to stomach the downs with the ups. Historically, the market has done around 10%.

    So I got the issue I had to remedy taken care of this morning before everyone was on site, spent the rest of the damn day making the two programable controllers talk to each other, I hate computer stuff I am a relay guy not a circuit board guy. Got the fire put out, customer and contractor were pleased as punch.

    Virginia's Lt governor being accused of rape now....19 yrs ago. I for one agree with him for not resigning. Waiting 14 and 19 yrs to report these alleged crimes against him. Bring on an investigation. But the Democrat leadership in Va....

    Sure am glad I ain't running for public office.
    Never raped or even had to " cohearse" a gal but there have been plenty in my past.
    Always could be that one physco beach that could dredge up a story.

    Oh I wish I could relive 1984 to 1989 those were golden years. Had I known how my life would be in 2019 I may have been more decadent in the mid 80's. Not sure how that would be possible while avoiding legal charges but worth a shot.

    I moved most of my money to a Credit Union last year. My checking account earns 2.5% up to $25k balance. The balance above $25k only earns .75% but still not bad for a liquid account.

    the fact that I am obsessed with Stieg Larsson's "The Girl....." series of movies.
    I'm not even a lesbian.
