But what if she was Wong?
That's the best laugh I've had today--thanks!!!
But what if she was Wong?
But if it pays off, I can sell high and end up with all G Fund in my TSP like before, but more of it.
Years ago I took a Chinese cooking class and Mrs. Wong told us the secret to good rice is to just ignore it and I have found this also works with the market . Most of my tweaking has not had positive results with rice or the market .
Whoooo I am impressed!
But I'll betcha this move pays off for you in the long run.
Cooooooooooooool.So far, it is even paying off in the short run! For now, anyway. I am up almost $2,000 from what my account balance otherwise would have been, yesterday. And today the market is up as well. Who knows what the future will bring, but it seems like we have been in the middle of a rising market for five months and may have a few months to go.
Well, we're doing our part. Right now we're in Knoxville TN trying to get the tires we really want. You have to replace tires every 5 years on motorhomes. Had to special order these and call Goodyear directly (again!) to make sure they made them available to the local distributor. Have to wait another week for them. Lots to do around here so no problem.
$475 a piece! (includes install) and need 6 of them! Like I said - we're doing our part to help the economy.

Up a total of $2,500 today. Let's see, ($2500 x .04)/12 = $8.33 extra every month for the rest of my life. That's real money already. And the Dow is up 122 points already this morning so who knows, tonight it might be even higher.

How much of it stays here is anyone's guess, but last night Honda and Toyota stocks dropped 2-3% due to the news of this CFC ending. Not that I have anything against car makers, but it makes you wonder if we are stimulating the entire world economy here.
It's good that some of the "helidrop" money got recaptured. Still, what is the percentage of American stock ownership of these companies? It doesn't change my view that the cash-for-clunker is just a political ploy.
