My first flying was in the 70s and I walked pretty much unmolested right to the gate and they showed me a seat chart with an outline of the fuselage with little peel off stickers with seat numbers. Everyone was super polite and orderly. Wonderful experience. Fast forward. I have flown 10-12...

Just tried that and no luck. And oddly, in the OP, it didn't put the quote marks properly.

Hmmmmm, something is going wrong with my posts. I had the above post in 3 paragraphs and a list and it came up as one paragraph.

Thanks for the list of book and I will add those to my pile. I am reading Buckets right now, I have Grangaard and all of the Bogle and Bernstein books. I really like the Slott books, very good data in those. I originally almost just dumped everything in to form a simple low expense ration...

I read most of the PDF and found it interesting but unconvincing. I was a bit surprized that he indicated at 70 years old that the couple #2 could just "choose" how much to withdraw ($20,000) from the IRA and therefore wins. In reality wouldn't each couple would be forced to withdraw (as RMD...

Hi, all. Just a short introduction. I just retired from the aerospace business in El Segundo, CA. Business climate was starting to get depressed and rather than hang around and watch that I decided it was time. Because of LBYM behavior, I believe that I am in great shape financially in terms...
