Uhmm, my return in 2014 was 46.2%. I've been pretty much 100% equities for almost 30 years.

I generally wear blue jeans and a hawaiian shirt to work every day.

Wow! Congrats!

My 40K finally hit a half mill Monday. That only took 28 years.

My oldest dog is 11 and has an autoimmune deficiency. He's on Prednisone and Atopica. The pred is making him weak. I don't see him making it through the winter. He's had two ACL surgeries and has some arthritis. The muscle wasting from the pred is making it difficult for him to poop but...

I was going to say the same thing. :)

This reminded me of something I read on FT. I can't find it now but one of the more interesting things I've read on Flyertalk was, I believe, in the MS forum but it could have been in the Delta forum where I normally hang out. Anyhoo, back in the 80s, a guy found out about a regular fare...
