Congrats!!!!

Can an IRA custodian in California NOT recognize a financial POA signed and executed in Pennsylvania?

Congrats! My only Grandson is going on 2 years now. Cute as me!

Not a milestone per se. Closed out 2023 dividend earnings. I've been tracking my compounding dividends since 2016. Fidelity says I've earned 339k from dividends on dividends since 2016. 8th wonder of the world!

You have to remember that you were invested in the longest bull run in history (11 years). The future may not replicate the past.

I have sleep apnea. Being able to go bed when I'm tired and waking up when I'm not is the BEST! And the afternoon nap.

I created 2 Roth accounts. One for contributions and 1 for conversions. I turn 59.5 in 4 months at which time I'll just combine them.
